Cobalt's Heart - session 2

I carry you with me across these
barren lands, stretched dry and dark between
regions of kindness.

Generous with your warmth,
you have shown me
a path to guide my heavy legs and stumbling heart.

Generous with your patience,
you have shown me
how lucky I was to have something worth mourning.

[Pleasantly:]

You've seen better days.

[A huff that's almost a laugh]

All work and no play.

Of course.

Need help burying any bodies?

Not this time, but I could use some help getting some lights working.

Some of the flood lights on the barricade got unplugged, and the daemons could break through if we don't get them up again by sunset.

We also need someone to gather up some weapons and meteor shards to fight off whatever shows up.

Where are the barricades?

South of here. Supplies will be to the North, at the power plant. I have some stuff in my apartment around there, too.

Understood. We'll head for supplies after we've taken care of the lights.

[Waving, sup.]

[Cutting right to the chase:]

How familiar are you with Cobalt's home world?

I know his place got destroyed, but not too many of the details. He did let me know we need to focus on getting the lights fixed before we're under attack, though.

And how do we do that?

Just plug them in, apparently.

["Just"]

That should be simple enough.

Hopefully it's as simple as it sounds. It sounds like we should probably split up doing them all to get through them faster.

Then let's head to the barricades and see how much ground we have to cover.

We can text the others.

Sounds good to me.

[To the barricades!]

[off you go!]

This whole place has.

Right. . .

[Hurricane, this kinda looks like your world, too, you know.

What is with Imeeji and dystopias]

I'm heading south to take care of the lights. I'm sure Cobalt has other tasks that need completing.
