Brass Tacks
Chapter Six
Get Well Soon
Some of our own on both sides have been extremely sick for the past three days after something happened at the masquerade. It's hard to know if it was a planned attack, or if it was a complete coincidence... After seeing people die there without warning, anything could happen. None of us have died yet, thankfully. Our symptoms are much different from what the humans have experienced.
Common symptoms:
Violent hallucinations
Confusion
Severe anxiety
Fever
Memory loss
Loss of control over elements
Power intensity
Weakness
Increased power flaws
Element confusion
The public is looking for someone to blame, and with Concord and Talion's presence at the party having been confirmed, half the public is hunting us for it. But surprisingly, the other half is siding with us, causing an uproar all over Urania.
Protests, bounties, political debates, news.
Too bad we can't really enjoy it at the moment.
Concord and Talion have both stayed docked on the coast of Bonham, unable to risk moving from place to place in our crews' conditions. Our own doctors have worked tirelessly to find out how to help our people, but it's clear that it's beyond us.
We need help. But how?
September 4th, 5288
Days since Newhaven burned: 141
Your missions lie within your faction channels...
Lives on the Line
Even tasks that should be simple every day things are proving to be difficult in the world we live in. Going to the market... Admitting your friends into a hospital... Things are getting out of hand. Not that it wasn't in the first place.
The line between peacefulness and radicalism is becoming blurred.
In an attempt to gather the resources necessary to cure their crew, Concord ran into trouble during the evening of September 4th, 5288. They underestimated the amount of police presence they would run into, and just how vigilant citizens have become when it comes to spotting outlaws. Some managed to escape, but others weren't so lucky this time... Two officers were brutally murdered, and one suffered a heart attack on the scene.
Later the following morning, at approximately 4:00 AM, Talion was reported breaking into a hospital on the opposite end of Bonham. The police came prepared, and though negotiations were attempted, the police already had their minds made up, activating a pulse bomb and resulting in the arrest in nearly half of the crew.
The other half of Talion's crew either escaped or were brought to safety by the hospital's patients themselves. There was a single human left injured, who happened to be the owner of the hospital himself, Logan Berk. The hospital has been shut down permanently, and the human patients have been transferred over to another one of Bonham's hospitals. The whereabouts of the elemental patients is unknown to to police, but it is said that they were taken by the remaining crew.
The captured crewmates of both Concord and Talion have been transferred to an alchemical glass prison for Elementals, in the center of Bonham. Their fate is uncertain, but not looking good. For pure safety reasons the prison system has administered an early vaccine to these Elementals.
Captured and detained crewmates include:
Jehiel
Mortimer
Penny
Not
Azelvia
Aaliyah
Hektor
Evening
Lorelei
Fennel
Jesper
Jay
Aine
Huo
Sima

Jean
Finley
Meanwhile, the doctors of both Concord and Talion have obtained what they set out to get in the first place. Medical supplies. Medicine. Lots of it. Two separate cures have been made by the crew doctors.
Elementals are now cured of the plague and all of its drawbacks.
