PLANNING POST

Greetings, ALASTAIR recruits! As of Dipper, Papyrus, and Koltira’s announcement to the network, characters have 10 days to prepare for the final battle of Nalawi before shipping out on the Dakal warship to where Pomarr has asked them to meet her.

NALANNI
As has been suggested, Nalanni will not be a challenge; she has accepted her fate and knows that to save the planet, she and Ryba must die. In fact, she will make the specific request that one character see her to her death. We will be selecting the character via RNG. They don’t need to be a fearsome warrior to sign up, anyone who can hold a weapon will do. The sign ups for this will be open until June 2nd, and the character selected may bring up to 2 other characters.

However, remember that part about how this world can’t have just one goddess? Upon Nalanni’s death, the earth itself will feel Nalanni’s loss and begin to strike back. Between Nalanni and Ryba’s deaths, recruits will have to subdue giant rock monsters. It could take some teamwork, better look alive!

RYBA
As for Ryba, who is not at all willing to go quietly, Pomarr will lure her out of her trench and to shore, before stepping into a rift to Oska to leave Nalawi. Ryba will present three levels of challenge to recruits, and finally end up within striking range in the shallows. Mods will not be controlling her, and there will be no ‘final blow’ landed on her; her death will be a group effort throughout the various battle threads.

AFTERWARD
After the death of Ryba and Nalanni, recruits will have two weeks to remain among the Nalawi to help them readjust to their new goddessless lives before returning to Oska.

Additionally, as per Laedo’s request, ALASTAIR will also be allowing a small handful of characters to remain in Nalawi for three months, to allow them to better help the Nalawi begin to rebuild. As time in Nalawi passes differently than in Oska, this group will be returned to Oska only two days after the rest of the recruits. We will allow up to 10 sign ups, and if we have more than that will be selecting them via RNG before the game’s departure from Nalawi. Players of characters that are chosen will be asked to submit a short summary about their time in Nalawi to be approved by the mods.

The log for this battle and the following two weeks will be up on June 3rd. Feel free to use this post to plan for it!
