Un: Zodiac | Mid-Month Update

WHO: Everyone!
WHERE: Libra App
WHEN: November 15th
WHAT: Zodiac Network Post
WARNINGS: None!

[We've reached the middle of November. By now, the trip to Duat has been completed, and over the next few days, the sun will slowly start to reappear. It starts with only a little sun at a time each day, but slowly the daylight hours grow until the end of the month it's closer to how it usually is this time of year. But considering the revelations learned during the quest, you probably have some questions. And some mid month, your phone will give a blaring alert sound, indicating a new Zodiac post. As usual, the alert will sound even if you have your phone turned off or on silent, and will take over your phone until you read and comment to the message. The post begins like the previous one had, with notifications of peoples coming and goings]

Cecil, Thanatos, and Eda have joined the app. Say hi everyone!


[The post then continues on as normal.]

Hello! Thank you for using the Libra App.

First of all, we want to send thanks to everyone who assisted in resolving the crisis in Duat. Our experts have confirmed that the spirit energy around the city is beginning to normalize again, and we should expect a return of the sun and less tears in the near future. It was thanks to your hard work that we were able to find a resolution, and we are truly grateful for that.

Now to speak of the matter at hand. As you all learned, Professor Willow and other associates within P.O.K.E.G.O were responsible for the damage to the Spirit Vein that's caused all the unusual happenings over the past year. After interrogating Professor Willow and several key members, we learned that they did this when they attempted to travel through the Spirit Realm by use of a rare Pokémon called Giratina. Using Giratina caused much more damage to the Spirit Vein than they had anticipated, causing deep cracks within the barriers - which is likely what caused many otherworlders to slip through into this world. Their motive was to try to restore the Kanto Realm that they remember from a past life to it's former status as a full world, or travel to an alternate version of it.

We'd like you to know that Zodiac had no knowledge of P.O.K.E.G.O's actions or true motives. We had hired the Professor and his associates as private contractors and advisers after they approached us and offered assistance in Spirit Realm research. Upon reflection, we have reason to believe they did so in order to better monitor Zodiac's and your activities. We have immediately severed ties with all members of P.O.K.E.G.O known to be part of Professor Willow's plan. As for the organization of P.O.K.E.G.O, not all members were part of this, so they are currently undergoing internal review and reform. Perhaps we will revisit working with them again in the future, but for now our business relations have been put hold.

Professor Willow has recovered from the injury suffered in Duat, and is currently within our custody as we try to navigate what we can do about him. Unfortunately, none of his crimes are punishable by law due to the legal system not applying to supernatural incidents, so that avenue is unavailable to us. We are also aware that many of you, especially the otherworlders, have suffered due to Professor Willow's callous actions. As such, we'd be interested in hearing what you think would be proper justice for this situation. We will take your input under advisement and act from there.

Finally, we're still sorting out at Zodiac what this will mean for efforts to resolve the situation moving forward. We need more time to assess the new information, perform our own internal reviews, and make a plan for the future moving forward. We wish we could give you clearer answers at this moment, but unfortunately we don't have them yet. We thank you for your patience and understanding.

[Users will have the option to choose their own display names and user pics if they haven't already. If nothing is chosen, the app will use their real name and a quick photo taken of them from their camera's phone.Like always, there'll be no responses from Zodiac.

Starting today the sun will begin returning in the sky! It'll be only for a short amount of time each day, but slowly the days will increase until it's back to normal by the end of the month. NPCs will slowly stop noticing things as well. That said, continue commenting and backtagging the event log! It'll be around all month! ]

[So this Professor Willow was the reason she was separated from Sven and the others...]

[Even still, she can't find it in her to be vindictive now.]


"Proper justice" would be resolving the problems that he caused.

As someone brought here from his actions, I would like to see Willow work towards repairing the Spirit Vein and finding us a way home.

If that is not punishment enough, why not community service? That's what you gave others for damaging the barrier.


[It's only fair.]

They really give people community service for damaging a spirit barrier? What kind? It's not like picking up trash or feeding the homeless would really do anything to repair one of those.

[ Related to that. ]

Does anyone actually know how to repair a spirit vein? I thought we didn't know that much about them.

[ The man has questions ok! ]

It's what they did last time.

I'm not sure what kind. I only just arrived at the time. But there was a lot of damage around the city, so that might be why they chose community service.


[She was only aware thanks to the Zodiac announcements after the dinosaurs.]

I don't know. Willow might have a better idea than us. He sounds like he's researched the subject.

Since he got caught trying to destroy the world I would think something stronger than community service... Definitely keep him away from any of those giant snake Pokemon.

[ A slight pause between messages. ]

You're one of those that came from another universe?

It sounds like he was trying to save a world rather than destroy it. But I agree, he should not get the Giratina back.

[Assuming the giant snake wants anything to do with him after all that.]

I am from a different place, yes.
serpentinthegarden: (Can I help they don't check up)

[personal profile] serpentinthegarden 2022-11-22 07:34 am (UTC)(link)
Yea, save his world at the expense of our world. Without the sun this place would have been fucked.

[ Or not... as she was from a 'different place'. ]

My world, anyway. It might not be as impressive as whatever magical land you came from but I like it.
playtag: (Eh?)

[personal profile] playtag 2022-11-26 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm not sure Willow knew how bad things had gotten in the city. He was gone for a while.

[It's not so much a defense as an observation. The man was definitely not listening to them once they found him.]

[...]


This world is alright. I miss the people more than the places back home.

But mine isn't magical.


[For certain definitions of "magic."]

He was too focused on what he wanted to worry about anyone or anything else. He could always have checked up on the world instead of burying his head in the Duat.

[ But then Anthony did have a tendency to dwell on the darker side of human nature. ]

I get being lonely, missing people. You get that even if you're still on the world you were born into. I wouldn't try to destroy the world in order to fix that.

Agreed.

[Eve has her own reason for looking at his actions in an 'empathetic' light, but that does not negate the effects.]

I wouldn't either. At the end of the day, that much destruction wouldn't solve anything.
