Archons Strike

Early in the morning two towns found themselves under siege without warning by powerful magics from a new enemy. Muenier in Liciae found their vineyards and orchards catching fire, while the people of Tranmere in Dalvarus were forced to flee into the mines to avoid the blaze, though smoke followed them in.

They were however not without hope, as when the assault started - certain individuals who had strange dreams as of late would feel a sense of foreboding from those two towns and a sense that they should head over immediately. Thankfully the attacks had not destroyed the crystal networks, allowing for any would be heroes to teleport in from across the two nations. Will they arrive in time to beat back the attacks?

[OOC: This is the first major event for Refracted Light. Normally sign-ups will be held but in this case players are free to jump into a log for whichever town they choose, but choose wisely! Once made, a decision cannot be unmade. Depending on the amount of PCs who come to assist a town, the following results will occur:

0 PCs: The town is wiped off the map, and there are no survivors.
1-2 PCs: The town is demolished, but a few survivors manage to escape
3-4 PCs: A few buildings are left standing, and a moderate amount of survivors manage to escape.
5+ PCs: A moderate amount of buildings are left standing, and most of the town inhabitants escape alive, albeit some with injury.

The logs will be active until the 17th, although if more time is needed they may run a bit longer. All PCs who have at least 3 replies in the log will gain 3 EP immediately. Logs will be advanced every 24 hours at minimum.

Upon arriving at the scene and seeing the Archons, the PCs will be flooded with power and will begin to receive their Echoes. From your first tag, you may use any items and abilities you have requested for your Echoes. If you have not yet requested Echoes, you may do so here.

This log will remain open throughout the event and new players are free to jump in at any time. If enough players are present, we may split the players into groups for ease of management.]

Mercia blinks in surprise as Cameron's new weapon manages to break through the Archon's defenses. So they aren't invincible after all...

For a moment, her focus blurs, a crystal-clear image echoing through her mind.

"We're the same age, so we'll go to the same middle school, right?"

...

"I'm Yuna Yuki. Nice to meet you."

...

"Oh, yeah. You don't know this area too well, do you? I'll show you around. Leave it to me."


No time to question what it meant. No time to even notice the change happening while she remembered it. Mercia's body was engulfed in a whirlwind of vibrant blue flower petals, and when they vanished, her academy uniform was replaced by a strange, form-fitting new outfit of blue and white, with trailing ribbons and her hair - twice as long as it was a second ago - flowing behind her.

Her aim didn't falter. She loosed an arrow to follow Cameron's attack, and this one lodged itself perfectly in the Archon's throat.

"...What the heck?"

Seriously, suddenly he found himself fronting two comrades that were -- well, up to all sorts of nonsense. Though he kept his attention focused forward, he nonetheless spared them a baffled glance.
