LOG 3 – Creating our plans – 05/02/2022

Anyways, they had a safe-house so ended up disguising everyone and we headed through a load of sewers and tunnels which looked dug by hand, till we got to their high tech metal doorway. Approve of their security measures, since we got “disinfected” and had guns aimed at us when we got there (until Lilith gave the right passcode) – we then met Abel (with crazy tattoos!), Samson (pretty quiet) and Maketh … more on her later!
 
Lots of questions and talking, I wasn’t really paying a huge amount of attention since I was still thinking of Atlantis, but they effectively talked about them helping us if we help them, in particular requesting that we go after the “Declaration of Independence” that was being stored in a Nazi Bunker under lots of security… which they were hoping to use as propaganda to rile up the population against the Nazi, and with us helping them, they would then help us get home.
 
Velocity and AJ ended up at each other’s throats at one point, but not much of a surprise with tension running high. It changed a bit though when they bought out the map to help us see where the bunker was. Atlantis wasn’t even marked. My first reaction is that it was because Atlantis had been destroyed, but the others suggested that it was because it hadn’t been raised up. Turns out the Germans had dropped some depth charges into the water, but of course the V’sori had also bombed the underwater Atlantis and their parents still managed to raise it.
 
That bought up a bit of an alternative, and despite myself I started to feel some hope. If we raised Atlantis, by finding the heir and crowning her, then it could turn the tide of the war, especially with the technological advances of my race, and not only that, but my parents may still be alive, frozen under the waves.
 
At this, a thought that had been circulating my mind came to the front and I told the others that if I was doing this then I wanted to do it as myself, finally taking off my wig and revealing my identity. With the people I wanted to protect dead, frozen or never existing, there didn’t seem much of a point any more.
 
As we discussed what the impact would be of raising Atlantis and what we needed to do in order to make it happen, I heard a voice in my head asking if I really thought it could work. Turns out that Maketh is one quarter Atlantean (on her Grandmother’s side!). We kept talking while conversations in the room continued, looking at where the census records are being kept which could allow us to trace back their family, whether a power plant might be a good place to destroy as a distraction, and whether we should be trying to get into Dr Null’s laboratory as this might be something which helps us find our way home. Apparently the lab is in the same place as Von Brohn’s Space Control Centre
 
At this point Maketh joined the conversation again, suggesting that some recon was required before trying to break into the Space Control Centre, but she had an idea about getting us into the records building, with a load of the nearby nightclubs very popular with Nazi Officers, and could easily serve as a distraction plus an embarrassment for the New Order. She initially meant blowing it up, but since we were not happy about potential innocents being hurt, they switched the plan to music and smoke bombs.
 
With that the plan was set, with the Doll and AJ causing the distraction in the Nightclub, and the two speedsters and me breaking into the records building via a tunnel that the Doll would create for us.
