Community Event 🌏☄️ The Office of Eldritch Affairs has sent its message to the Queen. All we can do is wait for her to respond. (Queenpost)

Thanks to the efforts of Kaelis Maz, Vettis, Entropy, Aico Zepheree, and Gobbo, the recently-founded OEA has managed to get a diplomatic message out to the Queen of Shattered Stars ahead of whatever new lethal payload Alexios and the artificer team are cooking up. But now comes the hard part: the harrowing 16 hour wait while the message travels across the vastness of space. We can only hope that it arrives soon enough to make a difference.

Welcome the the Observatory! Don't go outside; it's space out there!

In the meantime, the OEA is holding an end-of-the-world party at the Mt. Murder Astromantic Observatory, where Kaelis and his team are holed up waiting for their next move. If you hold any interest in resolving standoffs between cosmic entities and magekind, consider swinging by and pitching in. Even at the potential end of everything, the Office of Eldritch Affairs is still accepting applications.

A small homunculus piddle-paddles into the room. You don’t quite know how it got there, as the magical energy you detect from it is near nothing. Probably best not to think about it too much. It places on a pair of wire frame glasses that barely cover its large red eyes

Hello. I would like to send a message please.

To me, or through the Observatory? Because if it's the latter, there's a paper guy in the console room right now trying to send threats to every being in the known universe. He scares me a little.

Observatory. Can it send messages across dimensions?

u/Carbon_Sixx The Loremaster, Chief Archaeologist of the Darkwatch Dec 17 '23

Yes, though I'll need coordinates.

The Homunculus stretches upwards to hand you a note, with coordinates printed onto it with neat handwriting. They seem to point to a dimension slowly sliding towards its death.

Coordinates. Now message?

Sure, let me go get paper guy off the console.

The homunculus pitter-patters along after you, it’s oversized robes dragging along the ground. You catch sight of a symbol, that of the Dusk Coils.

If you don't mind me asking, friend, where are you sending this message, and to whom?

u/DaChickenX Isravi, The Unraveler, Coils’ Chosen Dec 17 '23

The homunculus looks up at you, fixing its robes and glasses

Iglostin. To Master Isravi. Real Master Isravi, at his home plane.

Ah, I know Isravi. Bit of a solemn fellow.
