There isn't much fanfare in this posting, even with the official notice on the top. Actually, there's something almost stark in its simplicity. Just basic text and a blinking cursor on a black background, that slowly loads up into a full message:

Local and guest alike. Several months ago the city experienced a disruption in the form of a transmission hacking of an official feed; as many of you reading this are aware. We have since been reviewing the data and running decryption on the hijacking's interference, and have come to a conclusion on a location of the signal. It is outside of the city walls, which now makes it necessary for us to enlist the help of those called to the city. Be advised that the person is an unknown factor, and likely to be dangerous. In addition, the environment outside is hazardous as well, and should be approached with caution. Because of this risk, volunteers will be rewarded for their efforts. They will also be the first on the scene with uncovering answers that we all doubtless wish to discover. Representatives from their respective departments will be available to answer questions, and impart necessary information. Given the nature of this task, there may be additional requests granted. However, they are only requests. The first and major goal in this is gathering information. Fare you well, and may the Twins guard you while afield.

(ooc: There will be NPCs willing to answer questions watching this entry. However, some NPC responses may be slow due to time differences.)

We're trying. I believe one of us has plans on briefly kidnapping Hwan for a day...

[Or they don't. It's a mystery]

The gates will open on the morning of the 26th. As for odd jobs, there will be several from each major group of the city. We're still compiling it but we hope to have it completed by Wednesday.

nervous sciency guy?
lemme know how that goes
or
yknow
if you need a distraction

[serious or not he could totally do that. or try.]

so weve got a bit of time
ok
well thatd be awkward if you got it done after
unless you have time travel
cant say ive noticed any of that though

[rekindlenpcs]

I will. Don't you worry too much.

If we could time travel, none of this would have happened in the first place.
So no, we don't really have the ability to.

[dontthesunlookgoodtoday]

cool
thanks for taking that burden off my mind

yeah seemed like a long shot
guess youd have to have a lotta power to get that started up in the first place
just to sate this raging curiosity rising up though
how would that have helped?
beyond going back and attempting to sort out the shit that got this started before it really grabbed onto your ankle

[rekindlenpcs]

No problem.

Exactly that reason. Though who knows if it would make matters better or worse.

[dontthesunlookgoodtoday]

always the big question
what exactly is this paradox going to do to my personal timeline
or the general timeline of everyone
for all we know it could push things the other way
guess theres no way of know though
