ASTERION PRISON END POLL (PARTICIPATION REQUIRED)

[futurologists]

ASTERION POLL Now that the labyrinth has been solved, there comes the question of what to do with the inmates and Asterion workers who have survived alongside Audentes. Should they all be left to rot in the prison? Should they be saved by ALASTAIR and pressed into service, or sent back to their home planets? And what of Mavahari, the Zymandis agent? It's time to make a decision. Please note this is an IC poll. This means that votes should be cast as per your character's stance. If you have more than one character in the game, you may vote once per journal! The mods will be available to clarify plot points in the question thread below, but we will not answer hypothetical questions (e.g., "will Mavahari betray us," etc). For the sake of fairness, the results will go by majority rule. Any rogue actions taken by characters will ultimately not alter the overall results. PLEASE NOTE: Participation in this poll is mandatory for August AC. Failure to participate will result in an automatic strike. The only exception is for those who are exempt from August AC via hiatus. The poll will close on 11 August 23:59 UTC. SPOILERS BELOW! PLEASE READ THE EVENT LOG FIRST. CONSIDERATIONS (THE FINE PRINT) Many inmates are perpetrators of crimes spanning from murder to burglary. None of them are wrongly accused. Mavahari is a Zymandis agent, indebted to their service because they saved her life after her home planet was destroyed. However, now that George has saved her life, she is indebted to him. Ophiel, the Zymandis AI, is sympathetic to ALASTAIR and may be useful in the fight against Zymandis. The AI is inside Mavahari's wristwatch jewelcomm. The Asterion Labyrinth is cloaked, meaning that anyone left behind will most certainly never be rescued. The portal is single use only. Because the portal is not made for interdimensional travel, the strain will cause it to explode once it is used. Poll #18654 Asterion Labyrinth This poll is closed.
