plot idea/direction/thing!

Hello all!

Lexa will have a specific goal moving forward, partly because the people she has decided are the least trustworthy after gathering information is their hosts: the Hyrypians. While she would prefer to shut them down singlehandedly by pushing a red button to get her people (the Nest) off this planet, she knows that's not an option that others will believe in. Of course, following the feeling of dread, she'll be less sympathetic to that.

Just the same, her goal is to figure out why and how the Seconds come into being. To make it clear: the Seconds are this world's technomancers, and they are the only ones capable of utilizing the Nectar. This entire conflict is based around the Seconds. Initially, Lexa would've liked to bring together a plan to take them out, but it will be apparent that this isn't really a feasible thing. So, instead, her goal is to figure out how the Seconds come about and potentially blow a hole in what allows the Hyrypians to control this natural resource.

There's just two things:

1. They're now on the pilgrimage and in a bad place, which is going to lead Lexa to believe that they're a little screwed. But this also opens up other opportunities, as the other factions are undoubtedly a little irritated and stressed.

2. She doesn't want to look into this alone, and will be calling on help from the other hosts.

As far as I know, a few other characters have expressed interest in exploring this route, and knowing this might also answer a lot of questions about the group that's playing host to them.

So! This is a plotting post to discuss how to go about this, or whether there's enough IC interest in order to go about this.

+1 I'LL COME BACK W/ MY CONTRIBUTION IN A BIT

EDIT, OK I'M HERE: He's very much on board with the idea that drawing a mission like this out, especially with as many layers of intrigue as it has, will prove deadly to the nest. As he was unable to locate any information prior to the pilgrimage itself ( the books had been removed, and by who or for what reason, he had no time to pin down - HE'S GOT THEORIES, BUT NONE OF IT IS USEFUL RN ).

Since all the information he's got stresses the desperation of the other factions, he doubts they'll have actual time to find the Enemy agent, so - Lexa has someone entirely in her corner this round. He totally thinks the Hyrypians are going to eliminate a sizable portion of those that threaten their autonomy a la Red Wedding ( it's what he'd do/has done before ). He's definitely going to be sharing all pertinent information to her, and expect the same in return.

I'M TOTALLY IN. I think that's all I gleaned from NPC convos so far...

Sam will definitely be interested in exploring this route, even if it's just passing on any information he might stumble on that can help!

Coming back to this to add that Sam got a boost to his healing ability approved so that he's able to make people feel more comfortable and at ease with him for about 5-10 minutes if he activates it. He's planning on using it for intel gathering and will definitely put it towards figuring out things about the Seconds and their hosts here if Lexa's interested.

MISATO IS IN although she wouldn't be 100% believing in this idea that the Hyrypians are the one enemy as yet if only because she feels any other one of the Radadocey may not have their best interest in mind either. She would feed any and all information she gets to Lexa (and other people) most willingly, and she will (surprise, surprise) be pretty good at keeping this to herself otherwise. I might have more to say once I get a mod response re: the dread!!

The Hyrypians cackling as they lead the rest of the Radadoceous toward certain death so they can claim power over the entire galaxy . . .
