This is Senshi.

I’ve recently upgraded the Milk Run for longer journeys and more delicate cargoes, while making contacts and building trust with wholesalers and smugglers across the seas. I’ve been shipping in good, hearty food for you all, but I can do better than that.

Now I can track down luxuries, treats, rarities. Things from home you miss. Carrots, or mom’s carrot cake, to dangle in front of aristos and merchant princes.

So tell me: what kind of rare or luxury ingredients and flavors have you been missing, or that would make you feel right at home? In a month I plan to make a voyage out of it, and see what we can get for the Resistance that the Empire has trouble serving to it’s landed barons.

Matt sends a message out on the network to his new allies at the beginning of the new month.

"I need a group of you to accompany me to a forest village at the foot of a mountain, population of about 200. We'll be leaving by airship on the fourth. We're either evacuating the town and taking them to join the refugees, or saving their village from getting crushed.

As I said before, this world is at risk of breaking down. In the case of the mountain we're headed to, it will crumble and crush the village at its base if we don't intervene. I can try throwing a magic barrier up around the village, but my power won't be enough alone. We'd have to take other measures to be successful.

So we need to decide; one, do we focus only on evacuation? And two, if we try to save the village, what approach are we taking to protect it from the landslide? Let's all discuss together. I'm open to suggestions."

... I owe everyone in the lead up to the new year much.

Especially those who were with me.

Name it, and I'll try and get it to you. . .

though,

do not ask for anything particularly urgent

[Deedee's voice sounds rough, like she's been a pack a day smoker for a year and in pain on top of that. She is clearly Not Well. This may be why she's not transmitting video.]

Mission accomplished, though not without serious cost. I was foolish. If it weren't for the quick thinking of my teammates, it's likely three of us would be dead, at least. Ha... we appreciate any and all medical help you can provide, particularly to heal serious burns.

But we did succeed. And I made promises I intend to keep.

I might not be able to personally attend to people's beauty and health for a while and I'm sorry. I'm going to leave that in the capable hands of my employees until I'm well enough to do it myself; please avail yourself of the spa's services now or when I can do so at your option.

But more importantly than that, I swore a vow to my God, and I intend to follow through on it. I would like to set up a shrine to Sylphan in honor of... this victory; something open to the air with windchimes, so His presence can be heard as music. And I'm more than willing to trade favors for this favor, keeping in mind I'm in recovery.

Looking at this a bit, it seems like introducing oneself is normal here, so. Greetings, Crimson Corsairs.

I'm Kaitlyn, a Chosen of Winter. Skipping the details you can ask about over drinks or something if you're really curious, I'm a 'skirmisher'. Sneak around enemies and hit them where they don't expect to be hit from with light-fire ice abilities. Or complete a goal without hitting them at all because they never saw me in the first place. (I love it when I get loot that way honestly.)

I'm not new to working in a team, I'm not new to adventure and combat... But uh I am new to both at once, so. Help adjusting to the combination might be good.

Looking forward to meeting people and doing stuff, and, uh. Not sure what else to say?

So. Hi.

Deedee here wishing everyone a belated happy New Years.

As part of the celebrations, I'm going to be doing a sale on purely cosmetic things at the Five Winds Spa. So, haircuts and barber services, hair dyeing, nail polish - anything and everything you need for a new look in the new year.

Reinventing yourself once in a while is important, you know?

Greetings, Crimson Corsairs.

[As usual, the elegant woman appears with a beaming smile amidst the warm steam rising from bowls of... something or other in her kitchen.]

I understand you come from many winter traditions, both in this land and in your homes. If you would allow me a brief intrusion... In Yan, it is customary to celebrate the Winter Solstice, the 'dong zhi.' As it is the longest night of the year, we give thanks that the light will return and the days will soon grow long once more. In the depths of midwinter, it is a reminder that balance and yang will be restored, no matter how dark the nights may seem. For those of us in agrarian communities, we give thanks also to the animals who have brought us through the hard times.

[A mischievous glimmer shines in her eyes.]

Of course, it is also the day that the venerable master of the stove, Zao Jun, reports to Tian on whether or not your house hold has been 'naughty' or 'nice,' which I understand is a part of some other traditions as well.

Please allow me to offer prayers to Tian on your behalf. What is it that you hope for when the sun returns in its full splendor?

[in person, all around]

[Shu appears at your door on this cold, long winter evening, knocking politely and awaiting an answer. Whether she sought you out specifically or whether she's never met you at all, she stands and waits in her warm coat holding an extraordinarily large soup bowl in her hands. Somehow, it does not seem to trouble her.]

Greetings.

I have been taking my time to assimilate and to analyze the situation I found myself in once freed from the chains of the life that had been forced upon me. The breaker of my chains, I owe a debt to, though I suspect it will be paid in fellowship and in teamwork. A fine repayment, though I will still consider the value of pizza.

My name is Korobase Oki, or Oki Korobase to my friends and allies who use the nomenclature. (That was not an easy word in this language to learn...) Before being used for hauling freight and stacking crates and other... delightful menial tasks, my training and experience involved being a very sharp set of eyes and ears. Eyes sharp enough to pierce a hard target cleanly at 2km. Ears sharp enough to hear the whispers that the rich and powerful said to the empty darkness that they thought a deaf and uncomprehending witness. My operations were normally on a paid basis, of course, being a professional, but this... This is a rebellion, a fight against the grasping epauletted claws of an empire that would clasp all to it in chains, to what end, I care not. Let my pay be the freedom of those they oppress and proper retribution against those who would dare bind my wings.

But first, a drink.
