this...no outside servers will get this for a while.

In the mean time...a rundown?]<<<<<

>>>>>[Sure thing.

First of all, I have to report casualties. We lost both of the Trotsky
Twins, and Gris is gone. Styx is...missing. Charon is still with us,
but hurting. He'll survive, but...I wish we had some medical support,
or more of it. The people we found are hurt, and many killed. Ten
civilians are still alive.

Second...the report. Sure.

First off, we went on the search. Not too tough, luckily...they were at
the pre-given coordinates. Right on the money. They were hurting, yes,
but their shaman was helping out a LOT.

As soon as we found 'em, we headed for home. Not an easy job, with
bunch of civilians tagging along (I counted fifteen), but possible. It
was fine for the first couple of miles...

We (I should say "they", I wasn't actually there) were ambushed about
ten blocks from home. Apparently by a bunch of the spirits that had
been trying to get this group for days. God, they were tough...REAL
tough. That's when we lost everyone.

Three civilians were killed in the initial assault. When we fired back,
most were gone...we were going to get out of this alive. Well, some of
us. Second assault killed off one of the street samurai that had been
taking care of the civilians, along with their shaman, and another
couple civilians. And then the dead began to walk...I don't know. Ask
the people that were there, but apparently Gris started making some
walking corpses.

The assault was over soon enough. Seeing the source of the corpses, the
insects started attacking Gris en masse...boom. Dead in seconds.
Charon was also hurt in the assault...but managed to kill a few more
anyway. And from there, we didn't lose anymore. Styx got scratched,
but that's about it.

From there, it was just a matter of calming down the civilians. We
gave a couple weapons...and we went on.

Styx left a little while ago. Don't know where she went. Hope she's
OK. She said she'd meet back at the meeting point at 6:00 tonight...

They're downstairs now. Let 'em on in.]<<<<<
