Cao Pi and Daylight, at the start of the 'meeting', tell the others of the following information
● The current year of the world is 2054 and the darkness started in 1979, meaning it would have been 75 years since it all began. Despite being born in 1927, Dr. Solis is well and 'alive' at the 'age' of 127. source.
● As earlier finds and discoveries have uncovered, Dr. Solis mistakenly opened a portal into a dead world, one that was being consumed by the World Eaters at the time. Due to the World Eaters following into her world, years later, she believes they had spotted her.
Well before their arrival, her world begins to fall into rapid decline staring 1971 or 1972, shortly after Dr. Solis had been noticed by the World Eaters. They only began to piece the pieces together around 1974 when birthrates began to decline. Mass extinction soon followed and the light began to fade.
By the time World Eaters descended on Beacon in 1978, Dr. Solis assumes she and the few others in Beacon were the only ones left as the sole inhabitants of the planet. A World Eater then made its way to them in 1979, actively hunting them down. source.
● THE TOWN GOT DESPERATE ENOUGH TO USE ATOMIC WEAPONRY!!! Atomic weaponry, for those who don't know its destructiveness, is very bad. If one bomb were to detonate where Beacon stands, the entire town would be reduced to ash in an instant.
Honestly, Daylight flails a lot at this point, clearly distressed by this part, so Cao Pi often steps in to help inform the others of the following: A total of five nuclear-grade bombs were used. One was launched by itself and not only did it have little effect on the World Eater but it gave away the town's location, hence them being hunted down in 1979.
They decided to launch the remaining four missiles all at once in an attempt to overwhelm it. The survivors sought refuge in the mine, hiding there for a week before leaving their shelter to see what had happened. When they came out, the World Eater was... gone. There was no trace of it and Dr. Solis isn't certain of what came of it. source. | source.
● (An aside, since Day feels like the others should know about this: Dr. Solis had made an observation about the weird lantern effects that they had been struck with. The strange changes were here to stay but, at the very least, come and go instead of permanently affecting them. For now, there's no way to predict them.) source.
ooc notes;; - cao pi's player - gemini - is busy due to other affairs at the moment so cao pi's presence is handwaved! but he is there, present and helping out with the discussions.
- please do not reply to this top-level! i'll continue to edit this top-level with more information as the log goes on, and you're free to assume it was mentioned at the start or brought up by either daylight or cao pi during the threads. or will be brought up during threads naturally as it can. time is dead in roleplay land. ours now.
INFORMATION REVIEW.
