The Door in Reality, Session 6

General Summary

Beginning Stuff

The Skyway are facing a serious problem that Errol Mustang hears about - since Matthew Lutey appeared from The Door, it has been behaving strangely. Storm's Children demand discipline. (ear to the ground partial success, devotion partial success)

At Styg’s Workshop

Styg and Reginald Fulton discuss treating Sequoia. Styg describes the Imperium of Man, trying to sell Reginald on the constant war. Styg wants to use Blasphemy Zero on Sequoia to aid her recovery, but she doesn’t want it. She asks Styg to look after her children and he agrees. Styg glitches while interfacing with the network and Sequoia dies while he has lost consciousness. Reginald shoots her in the head as she dies.

Death of Sequoia by Phoebe Herring

A couple of Wolves of the Maelstrom watch as the group (including Prune and Petunia) lay Sequoia’s body to rest. (open brain miss, life becomes untenable, confront someone partial success)

Pell and the Evacuees

Wolves cautiously attack from the east of the camp of evacuees from The Cut (in the The Buried City). It seems like a distraction - Astiniltlish "Pell" Pelligri is attacked by infiltrators on the roof. After being pushed back, he tries to defend from the middle of the camp but is knocked unconscious. He passes in and out of consciousness throughout the chaos of a fight and comes to with a small group of fleeing evacuees - four defenders and about ten civilians. They are dragging him away from the camp. (read situation miss, confront someone miss)

Back at House Gardenia

The Gardenia Overseers approach Storm Gardenia about officially becoming the defenders of House Gardenia. She agrees, as long as they pull their weight and don’t focus the aggression inwards. They need training, so they ask for something to be arranged. Styg, Reginald, Petunia and Prune arrive at House Gardenia. Lots of discussion and information sharing ensues. Petunia reads Matthew Lutey about The Door. Storm reads Petunia because she’s offended that the children don’t want to stay at the house. Petunia heals Reginald and there are some rumours about her having special abilities. She wants to go to The Door. (read someone partial success, read someone complete success, field medic complete success)

Late Night Interruption

Evacuees from The Cut, with Pell, are spotted at House Gardenia’s perimeter late at night. Storm welcomes them. Reginald tries to get to Styg but he’s barricaded in his room and responding strangely (his AI is in control). Reginald asks Matthew to help, who whispers for Styg to come back. Styg's AI responds that he will in an hour. Petunia convinces Matthew to take her to The Door. (open brain complete success, mesmerising whisper partial success)
