western mission
A PHANTASMAL DIVERTIMENTO
It's an early morning for the manor when Tatara and G'raha gather the western wizards, an envelop in Tatara's hand. Even at a glance it's clear the letter is from someone quite official, the Western country's emblem emblazoned on it. G'raha looks pensive, but Tatara seems.. unsurprised.
He holds up the envelope, gesturing with it. "We've got a request from the Western military. Seems there's an issue going on at some noble's estate that could be quite dangerous."
(But why isn't the military handling it themselves?)
Tatara takes the letter out from its envelope, reading it out for the wizards. The contents are as follows:
"There's something strange about this request," G'raha says, arms crossed over his chest. "I feel like there's something the General isn't telling us, but I can't say for sure as I've not met the man."
Tatara nods, handing the letter over for the wizards to take. "Do your best to come back in one piece."
The two will walk with them to the elevator, Tatara placing a mana stone into the panel and sending them off to the West. There are directions to the estate included with the letter Tatara handed over, so they should know where they're going.

To the "Western" wizards of the Sage,
I've come to know a few of you wizards who claim to hail from worlds far from this one, and while I am loath to trust anyone with a task concerning national safety, I believe it could be a mutually beneficial thing for us. There are reports of missing people, all of whom were last seen at the the Schropfer Estate just outside the City of Foam, as well as reports of inhuman screams and beasts lurking around the area.
The Schropfers have recently hired on someone who claims to be able to raise the dead, and people are quite adamant that he is able to. That sounds like magic to me, which means it may be just the job for a wizard to handle. If you can take care of this, there will be compensation.
Regards, Gen. Gilles Barnett.

OOC NOTES
Welcome, Western wizards, to your mission!
Missions are mod-guided events that are partial CYOA, partial play-by-post instances. In general, you are free to interact with a scene as you please, and the mod will tell you how the scene reacts as a consequence of your actions. Some scenes will allow for more flexible threading, such as exploration or conversation, while some scenes will require strict turn order to preserve rounds, such as combat or other time-sensitive conflict. The mod will inform you if strict turn order is required at the start of a scene. Regardless, always be sure to bold any important actions you take.
This mission has been specifically tailored to Western disposition, attitudes, and magic. If you find yourself struggling to tackle a situation, refresh yourself on the description of the West on the locations page, and make sure to confer with your teammates too!
As a bonus, here's your theme music!
You will have until 11:59 AM EDT on Saturday, June 15 to reach a conclusion for this mission. Good luck!

[ Why does he think this is important info... ]
no subject
And how do I know you're not just going to make things worse? That's all wizards ever do!
[is now really the right time to be wizardphobic? no, but that's not what the racists think.]
no subject
I know not of how wizards have wronged thee, but the situation is already quite dire. If thou wilt permit us a chance, mayhap we can prove to thee that our only intent is to help?
no subject

no subject

After thinking for a moment, Urianger offers:]
Hast thou been injured by the lantern specters? If so, I may heal thee. The same goeth for any other survivors.
no subject
Music. Suddenly, Knights! You know how he's good with auditory illusions?
It's possible he learned that so he can fake the other Knights' voices.
Anyway have a teen pop concert hi ]

[sorry rian your offer got completely sideswipped by the idol concert,]
no subject
I believe Leo is sharing an uplifting performance for thy consideration.
[Yeah. Sure.]
no subject
[ Let him COOK but okay that probably didn't work since he seems to have Mostly Confused People. ]
Didn't you feel it? I put my heart into that! And I said what I meant! We're going to help you 'cause we wanna! And when it comes to trust, sometimes you just have to open a door and take someone's hand!
no subject
If I open the door will you just—not do that again?
