Lux forces have been deployed earlier to properly defend the village from the assault despite Unova’s protest. Lux forces stationed in Unova came together in Village Bridge to help better its security. The military had been met with hostility and protests but Lux remained firm to their decision for Village Bridge’s own good. When the enemies arrived, the army was prepared and had been able to drive away the army of trainers Nox sent but Village Bridge still didn’t end happily. “They didn’t like us being there,” a soldier who fought in the battle said. “We tried our best to help them out but they weren’t being cooperative. We told them to just stay put but they were being angry at us. They thought we were trying to take over Village Bridge and it’s not true.” Due to the distrust of the villagers and the lack of support from Unova, Lux was slowly overwhelmed by the next wave of guerillas Nox sent. Many soldiers became martyrs and died on a land that didn’t believe in them. As a result, the 400-year-old bridge sustained collateral damage and remained intact only to support a village that brought itself in ruins. There were signs of a Pokemon-made earthquake that wrecked houses and buildings. Not only were the villagers left homeless and jobless but their lives rest in the hands of terrorists. Alexander Cromwell, former sentinel and now Hoenn Champion, was in the frontlines and had been the one to defeat Alyssa Akiyama, Nox leader of Hoenn, during the clash. “They may have won another battle, but both times they had to destroy what they were trying to seize,” Champion Cromwell said while his injuries were being tended to. Cromwell was present during Nox’s invasion on Olivine when he was still a sentinel and witnessed the fall of the city with the destruction of its lighthouse. Despite Cromwell’s amazing victory over a powerful trainer, he couldn’t stop Village Bridge’s fate from ending up the same as Olivine’s. The failure in Village Bridge had also led to the capture of the nearby town, Lacunosa. The situation in Lacunosa has yet to be confirmed but Lux is praying supplies were shared to the victims of the recent fight. Knowing Nox, the chances were slim. Many from the military believed that if Unova had only been supportive toward Lux’s goals, they wouldn’t have suffered again, as when Nox took over Mistralton City with a staged fight to provoke the citizens. Still the situation could have been worse. Jensen Gamlyn, more known as Black, a sentinel of Lux, is confident that despite the lost and drop of morale, Lux's presence is still strong in Unova. Black clearly has faith for his fellow Unovans that they will see Lux's righteous path. Unova’s reluctance to support Lux’s ideals for peace and equality was nothing new. The very reason the civil war started was out of the selfishness of certain Gym Leaders rallied behind by criminals who didn’t appreciate Lux’s intervention, giving birth to the terrorist group called Nox that have ruined the peaceful lives of the people for two years. Whitelea “White” Lunette, a dedicated officer of Lux, was distressed of the tragedy that could have been averted. She saw the war with her own eyes and wanted Unova to listen to her message: "Nox has destroyed part of my home, part of citizens’ homes, and much more. The thought of their reckless tyranny is frightening. First Olivine City, and now our beautiful Village Bridge. I've got to warn you that if we let Nox continue, the whole world will be in chaos, and no one, anywhere, will be safe from the destruction that Nox brings us." “All Nox brings to the table is destruction," Cromwell commented, "and I for one want more for the world I live in.” Lux is determined more than ever to convince Unova to join our side. As Unova is proving to be stubborn, Lux is left with no choice but to face them armed - all to stop these senseless violence and return peace back to us. [/style]

MISSIONS

o1. NOX

The Bridge is our territory, but so are the bodies floating in the river. Fish out the corpses with your hands, Pokémon, whatever you've got. Might want to grab a pair of gloves though since it looks like some of them have already begun to rot. Can't be good for the river.

2 Nox characters, NPC Nox guerillas or sympathizers to help you if you need.

o2. LUX + NOX

Nox has some of our officers, and Lux has some of our best leaders. Both sides have arranged a rendezvous hostage swap. In the end, everyone should be happy with what they've got, that is, if nothing goes wrong and tensions don't turn it into another open fight. Meet at the entrance of Lacunosa where you'll find a group of ace trainers from each side in case the swap goes awry.

1 Lux character and 1 Nox character at the rendezvous. Space for an extra Lux and Nox to act as the hostages.

o3.LUX

Without their bridge, Nox won't have any ways to connect east of Village Bridge to the main routes leading towards inland cities. It's only logical that the area will die out on its own without any connections. If you're sent by Lux, you're going to want to sabotage the construction efforts in any ways possible. Nox isn't going to make it easy for you, that is, if you do succeed.

2 Lux characters, Nox NPCs if necessary to intervene.

PROMPTS

o1. NOX What good is winning a broken bridge? Grab your bricks and cement. We're building the bridge back up. No previous building or construction working experience required. There will be plenty of professional construction workers on the job. Try not to get in their way, would you?

o2.LUX We're calling a Lux assembly on the events surrounding not just Lacunosa Town, but really, it's a convention to further discuss Lux's role in Unova. It hasn't been hammered out just how active we will be within Unova. It's too late to turn back, especially with the foot that we set with the Battle of Village Bridge, so we might as well make do with what we have.

o3. LUX Unova's a long way away from our concentrations in Kanto. Gather up the wounded from the battle, soldiers and brave civilians who fought for Lux, tend to their wounds, and help with getting the soldiers home safely. It's going to be a bumpy ride and no promises that Nox will let you out quietly or in one piece. There should be a ship waiting for you south of Lacunosa to take you back to Vermillion in Kanto.

o4. NOX You don't have to be a genius to know that many people are upset over the Battle of Village Bridge. The bridge was destroyed and as a result, the casualty rates were staggering. Go into Lacunosa and see if you can help boost people's morale. Offer a hand, hold a door open for someone, do something to make the people feel better about us now that we're occupying the town.

[banter2]

I don't think anyone who knows Cecil is even vaguely surprised that I'm throwing him at prompt four. So yeah.

[maximum]

Okay so yeah, Samuel here's going to be doing prompt 1 with Marshal, I'll link to the post once the threads up ^^.

[casey]

Casey for Nox mission 1!


Old thread is old.
