In the far-off, northern island of Mended Horn, the party there has learned that they face an enemy they have dubbed "The Traveller." They have decided to go to an old, abandoned village there in hopes of rescuing some communist sailors.
In Baltimare, Dark Star tries to get things in order, while Virgin Flame looks for her old friend.

Every addition pair of hooves will help, and we'll need all the help we can get. The Commissar is also the most knowledgeable pony on the island both about the Kostroma and the communist forces. As for the order, the Airponies are by far the most distant of the three targets prior to the Kostroma. They should be last if we want to avoid wasting valuable daylight backtracking across the island.

Silver: "I would prefer not blowing up the Kostroma if it can be helped. It will make escaping island with everyone far more difficult."
>>186894
Kira: "How heavy are they exactly? I'm a pretty strong creature, I've found..."
Silver: "Does Kostroma have long-range radio?"

"It is not the sort of creature that would die in a fire or freezing water. Destroying the ship would certainly make it easier to deal with its thralls though." Posey says, nonchalantly
"It is still risky though. There are better ways. If I could get into mid range without losing concentration and summon a flock of bats, I may be able to make most of the crew due of bleed damage, assuming they lack any evokers."
>>186898
No. The airponies should be first. They are the entire purpose of this mission. Everything else is an afterthought.

The GRU and the Traveler are distracted right now, but I don't know if we'll have the time to do all of that backtracking. It's also far more likely that the Airponies will stay where they are at while the Commissar is more likely to move if we don't get to him quickly.
Silver: "Uh...let us try to avoid causing all of Kostroma crew to die of blood loss."
>>186901
Kira's ears fold backwards. "Oh...that's heavy..."
Silver: "That is good to know. I do not think it will be factor before Traveler is dealt with, but good to know for later."

You don't know that either. What if they are being attacked right now?

"Most likely." She says
She produces a flower from her spell components pouch, which begins to wither and rot in the glow of her magic until it crumbles away

Hmmmmmm...potentially more hooves that could help us with this fight against the Traveler. So, in comparison to the Commissar, the leviathan whale skeleton, and the Airponies, how distant would this village in the south bay be?

"Are you saying it is undead? I have other ways of dealing with that." She says

"You would be surprised. There are countless living creatures dwelling beyond the void who are able to survive in the absence of atmosphere, only a few of which have been properly documented. That is a topic for another day though." She says, looking wistfully at the night sky
She pauses
"Really, the one class of creatures I do not have a reliable spell for is golems... Constructs are so difficult to destroy, and are not nearly as easy to control as the undead. I have not seen very many golems lately though."

Hmm...sounds like it's the closest target to the Kostroma. We should go there last before going to the Kostroma.
Silver smiles apologetically at the mare. "Does it have mouth, or other orifice? We could detonate grenade from inside of it."
>>186924
Kira perks up a bit at the topic of discussion. "Oh, what about using a spell to dispel magic in order to kill a golem! Aren't they animated using magic? If you dispelled the magic keeping them together, wouldn't they just fall apart?"

Yeah, I would really like to do that, but Posey is only lvl 4, and I don't get nice things at this level.

"We have some grenades at our disposal. We could bundle them together to combine their explosive power. Unfortunately our ability to gather resources is limited, otherwise we could make some homemade explosive devices like nail bombs. Hmmm..."

Looking at the torpedo in the plane, Silver wonders to himself: how difficult would it be to dismantle the heavy torpedo in order to acquire its warhead?
>>186930
Kira merely tilts her head at the necromantic mare, and flicks her tongue.

Hopefully no. Silver explains his thoughts to Brie. "Could you remove torpedo warhead, and then using radio within this plane make remote detonator to attach to it? We could force it inside Traveler, detonate it remotely, and it would kill Traveler while his body would absorb force of explosion, preventing Kostroma from being destroyed as well."

Well, if it's not undead, and it's not a construct, all the other available creature types (outsider, aberration, magical beast, dragon, elemental, etc; with the exception of Deathless which is basically just "good undead") should count as living things for the sake of spells (except for anti life shell, which is weird) and effects. I'm just checking for the sake of tactics and planning how to destroy it.
Posey pauses to consider her plan
"If it is either undead or a construct, I should know when I see it. Until then, I remain confident in my entropy-based attacks."

No, it's because of how Posey is asking the questions. Posey asks questions, but then asserts knowing more than the one she's asking.

Silver: "Gameplay? Anyways, look, it would be of tremendous help to us, especially if we end up having to use explosive charges we have before we face off against Traveler. If we need it, then good, if it turns out we do not, then you get to keep warhead for yourself."

"That seems a bridge we can cross after we tend to the marines and the airship," Brie is near growling

We would have to come back for Brie and the explosive regardless. The airship is the one confidential aspect of our mission and letting a Stalliongrad scientist near it is inadvisable.

How do you want to do this? Do you want me to explain why "no" in character or out? Cuz right now, Silver is nominating himself for idiot of the year, in Brie's mind.

Let me put this into perspective.
I get that you/Silver thinks that repurposing the torpedo is a good idea. Brie DOESNT.

Brie holds out his hooves in a shrug gesture, as though to indicate that there is no vompelling argument for him to fuck off from everything to playbwith this torpedo, under the assumption that if a compelling case WERR made he could ALWAYS go back, and assume that we're ready to go toward the maines

"My plan is to wait until we have a better idea what we're up against, as well as having addressed our primary mission objectives. You knob."

Brie shrugs, but wastes not a moment.
"Garv, flank out, shoot anything that moves. Silver, you're on Ms Kubana, she has marines to locate. Rosie? Uh... I trust you to do the magic thing. Dust... keep an eye on her, but conserve your energy; we're likely to gather more injured before this is over," he takes a moment to reload the 3 shots from earlier.
"Any questions?"
Brie shrugs, but wastes not a moment.

Brie snaps his hoof to indicate this isnt an idle question

Fine, let's do it. Survival roll to watch out for enemies and to track the marines.
[1d20+11 = (12+11) = 23]

"Ill be the eyes in the sky. If I call out, its cuz surprise or stealth is no longer the priority."
If theres no further questions, Brie will resume his arial vantage, spot checking as he do

Fug, I missed this
"It's risky either way. If we keep them with us, it's a liability. If we leave then somewhere, its also a liability. Can Pipette be trusted to keep an eye on zombie ponies on a leash?"

"Pardon me, but I dont agree with leaving ANYpony behind, given the circumstances. If Pipette can monitor the thralls, we can likrly proceed with caution.

"That would be an unnecessary risk for her, whether the threat comes from the Fellow Traveler or the GRU," he insists.
Also Pipette is right there.

"Miss, I'm going to be perfectly honest with you. None of our survival is assured at this point, and as you are specifically qualified to testify, we are dealing with something that defies comprehension. We have these," Brie gestures "Collected thralls of this Traveler, unable to be left to their own devices, but also unable to be left unattended to. We will keep you safe to ourbdying breath (bluff check), can you hold the line for us?" Brie asks, holding up the end of the daisy chain rope.

Brie will attempt a little eye-play with Garv. What he will attempt to communicate through facial gesture and body language is that in that the Traveler likes dominating a geoup, it might behoove to have a group on hand to maybe distract it with.

Finally, Brie will take a long, deep breathe before turning to Silver.
"I really don't line the idea of spending any time on this thing, but you may be correct, and it may be the thing that gives us an edge. Fuck me," Brie paces nervously. You've never seen him do that. "Fine. I dont like it, but I'd rather have a hugeton explosive and not need it, than need a hugeton explosive and not have it," Brie says, returning command to Silver

Cavaliere narrows his eyes with a side glance.
He turns back to the mare. "Miss, you might be partly responsible for this situation, but that's not our concern at the moment. Even if it threatens our chances of getting off this island alive, we will do our best to keep you and the prisoners safe, because that is our duty."
The griffon gives the mare his derringer and ten rounds of ammunition. He discreetly points to her, points to his eyes, and points at Brie.

"Ive got a .38 I wont be using for a moment. No serials either!"
"Ive got a .38 I wont be using for a moment. No serials either!"
Staring at the torpedo, Brie has a moment of reflection. He thinks about where he ginds himself, the situation he's in what with the Traveler and all this madness. He thinks about these ponies and griffon he is cavorting with. So much of this seems off to him. But he banishes such thoughts from his mind, pulls off his mask so he can breathe better, closes his eyes, and takes a deep breath.
"Centipede," he mutters, before he starts going to town. His last interactive moment will be for him to not even bother to address anypony, but simply to call out: "I trust I dont need to emphasize how important it is that I'm not disturbed?"
