The daemon base was large, a massive obsidian skull carved from the base of a black, foreboding mountain within the Outlands and surrounded by a forest of dead trees. This was inevitable, as accompanying faculty could explain. As much as it could influence the human world, the Outland was heavily influenced and shaped by human thought and culture. Weaker daemons, such as those within the base, would find their personality, forms, and even desires inexorably shaped by the thoughts of humanity and what was perceived humans would expect and fear.
The focus of the two main assault groups would be the clearing of the main hall and the lower dungeons. The groups will be divided as follows:
Main Hall:
Ky
Mav
Kanata
Tyzias
Gunvolt
Bumblebee
Main Hall Support:
Toki
Kano
Dungeon:
Valvatorez
Goro Akechi
Ren
Minako
Naoki
Keith
Dungeon Support:
Ekkehardt
James
Control Room Supervisor:
Yang
To get through to the fortress proper, the students will have to make their way through the forest. This is an open log, even for those who didn’t sign up and will consist of clearing a path and fighting off living trees and mimics in the form of any number of objects that would otherwise be expected in forests such as rocks, brambles, bushes, and other foliage..
The Main Hall is lined with massive rooms full of daemons such as the banquet hall, treasure vault, and throne room where the daemon lord resides. The Daemon Lord is the target here, and he’ll be well-guarded. Beware! Many of the rooms are trapped with mimics taking the form of treasure chests, braziers, boxes, barrels, and just about any other item.
The Dungeons are where captured humans are kept and tortured. The objective is to free the humans and defeat the Jailer, a powerful Daemon who runs the chambers. Students should beware, doppelgangers are said to be commonly slipped in amongst prisoners to ferret out rebellion and will be hidden in with those who are to be rescued.
The Control Room is located in the Citadel, with a massive monitor visualizing the area with floor plans and video feeds. All students and faculty will be wearing small cameras that will record live footage, and will be wired with a communication earpiece that will let those in the Control Room communicate freely. Students working in the Control Room will be able to relay data and information, and use the powerful supercomputers to analyze items on the ground in near real-time.

...Knowing Nana's okay -- and everyone else -- does make him feel a little better, though, and his shoulders release some of their tension to show it. Even if they'd had to be fixed by weird daemon magic, at least...they'd been fixed. They'd be alright. Yep, that's okay but not getting his own problems taken care of, because that makes total sense.]
Good.
no subject
So...you'll let me treat you, too? [He's not going to let this go. The school will probably have his head if he just...lets a student walk around still injured.]
no subject
I don't -- [It's too hard to cling to his anger when his arms hurt. Doing so is just giving him a headache.] I...could fucking do without the burns, I...guess.
no subject
Just the burns? [Dryly.] I could clear up everything, if you want.
[But, as he talks, Mav will notice the peculiar sensation of cool water being poured down the back of his neck. If he thought his voice was unsettling now, it's even more so.
Still, the burns seem to be healing themselves right up.]
no subject
Just...the burns.
[It's through gritted teeth, and he feels another wave of hate and shame over that.]
Anything I could get in a normal fucking fight, I can deal with my own damn self, same as I always fucking have.
no subject
The tension is obvious, and Hieke feels...kind of guilty about it? He doesn't want to hurt anyone, or make them uncomfortable, but he doesn't know what he can do to make things better.
He gets the feeling whatever problem it is Mav has, it's not one he'd be able to fix.]
Just the burns. Alright.
[And it's just the burns that he'll heal. He's not going to do something like break his word.]
Everything else I leave in your hands.
no subject
...Hell'd you come with on this mission, anyway?
no subject
Why wouldn't I come? It's a dangerous mission, and a lot of students are going to probably end up needing medical attention.
[Sure, he hadn't wanted to come, and all of this daemon fighting is a little awkward... But at the end of the day this is where he needs to be.]
no subject
There's other people that heal. Guess they might not've been as familiar with the area.
no subject
Ekkehardt is in the control room. The two of us are the only medical staff right now.
[Why didn't the academy think to hire any human help? Geez.]
...And I've never been here before.
no subject
Tch. Guess it'd be pretty fucking hard to want to visit a dive like this. Assuming you got any fucking sense of taste at all.
[these daemons...are dumb]
no subject
Oh, absolutely. I wouldn't be caught dead in a place like this if the school wasn't insisting. It's kind of awful.
[It's really bad.]
no subject
[He's still managing to sound scathing, with these more conversational words, because even when he tries to have chill he has very little chill.]
The bulk of their shitty fucking decor decisions was inside. You see any of the shitty paintings?
no subject
Hieke hasn't even picked up that this attitude is because he's a daemon. He just thinks Maverick is like this because he's in pain.]
Can't say I have. There hasn't been much of a reason to go inside yet.
