Caesar Invades Gravenhurst

The burning tower was the spectacle.

The gate was the strike.

While VQU smoked in the distance, the Gravenhurst gate broke. Aleron Bonapate entered as Caesar, riding Bowflex's skeletal T. rex body like a conquest banner dragged out of VQU's own legend. On his head he wore the polar bear king's skull as a trophy from another conquered world.

A dozen Castro soldiers poured in behind him.

The message was brutal and simple: this was not only an attack on the school, and not only a riot around MAINE's trial. Castro had entered the Queefdom through Gravenhurst while everyone looked toward the skyline.

The apparent VQU strike had bought the capture operation its opening.

Ash and Hollow were the true targets. The Lawful gate had failed. Castro was already active in the streets. Main initiative had not even properly begun, and the city had already crossed from panic into invasion.

The session ended at the moment the truth arrived on bone.

Next time would begin inside the breach.
