The Temples Operation In Celestriana 240909
In the tundra near Celestriana, a fierce battle unfurls across the icy expanse of a great lake. Selina, a mage with command over frost, and her allies, including the formidable shape-shifting wolf Jodie, stand against the encroaching forces of a domineering warlord, protected by fur-clad warriors and kevlar-clad Templar operatives. The mission: to either break or protect the ice, depending on one's allegiance, which in turn, would determine the fates of the forces crossing or guarding it. As Selina hurls icy blasts at her foes and Jodie charges headlong into the fray, the battlefield is a chaotic dance of strategy, magic, and raw physical force.
Under the silver gaze of a waxing crescent moon, allies and enemies clash with a myriad of tactics and powers at their disposal. Emmanuel and Cara, alongside the formidable wolf Jodie, focus on breaking the ice to thwart the warlord's plans, while Selina and her band of defenders unleash a barrage of spells and attacks to stop them. Amid this chaos, alliances are tested, and the melee grows increasingly desperate. Cara's strategic deployment of a landmine signals the endgame, forcing a standoff that eventually sees the Virtuous Alliance triumph. The fallen, including stalwart defenders and bold aggressors like Selina, fade from the nightmare of battle, their efforts concluded but their legacies enduring in the icy wind that sweeps over the now silent lake.
At Sun Sep 8 2024, in the tundra near Celestriana
Mission: Get to one of the three designated sites and continue breaking (or protecting) the ice of the lake until the process is complete.
Previous Temple operations in Celestriana might have subscribed to a hearts & minds approach, but now the Temple turns its hand to more traditional methods of conquest. Tips from a local suggest a dominant warlord in the area has heard of Temple incursions and has anticipated the threat. This warlord is sending forces north to fortify his garrisons in the area and mount fierce resistance against future Temple operations. To get there, his forces must cross a great frozen lake or spend weeks going around it.
At 7pm Haven time the Temple will be deploying to break the lake. If the lake breaks in the nightmare it is presumed it will break in the real. The warlord will lose any forces on the lake with the rest not reaching northern garrisons in time to support their brethren stranded there. Hostile forces might want to protect the ice from the Temple to hamper Temple operations, or simply show up to project force in the area and assert themselves ahead of operations of their own.

The Virtuous Alliance has proved victorious.
Under the silver gaze of a waxing crescent moon, allies and enemies clash with a myriad of tactics and powers at their disposal. Emmanuel and Cara, alongside the formidable wolf Jodie, focus on breaking the ice to thwart the warlord's plans, while Selina and her band of defenders unleash a barrage of spells and attacks to stop them. Amid this chaos, alliances are tested, and the melee grows increasingly desperate. Cara's strategic deployment of a landmine signals the endgame, forcing a standoff that eventually sees the Virtuous Alliance triumph. The fallen, including stalwart defenders and bold aggressors like Selina, fade from the nightmare of battle, their efforts concluded but their legacies enduring in the icy wind that sweeps over the now silent lake.
At Sun Sep 8 2024, in the tundra near Celestriana
Mission: Get to one of the three designated sites and continue breaking (or protecting) the ice of the lake until the process is complete.
Previous Temple operations in Celestriana might have subscribed to a hearts & minds approach, but now the Temple turns its hand to more traditional methods of conquest. Tips from a local suggest a dominant warlord in the area has heard of Temple incursions and has anticipated the threat. This warlord is sending forces north to fortify his garrisons in the area and mount fierce resistance against future Temple operations. To get there, his forces must cross a great frozen lake or spend weeks going around it.
At 7pm Haven time the Temple will be deploying to break the lake. If the lake breaks in the nightmare it is presumed it will break in the real. The warlord will lose any forces on the lake with the rest not reaching northern garrisons in time to support their brethren stranded there. Hostile forces might want to protect the ice from the Temple to hamper Temple operations, or simply show up to project force in the area and assert themselves ahead of operations of their own.
On the frozen ice of a great lake in Celestriana.
It is night, about 50F(10C) degrees, and the sky is partly covered by thin white clouds. There is a waxing crescent moon.
