Re: War Cycle
A small fox who everyone here knows as the Master Lore Keeper trots over to the podium and grabs the microphone. Something else she's known for and loved for is her singing, but since she has her "Lore Keeper" clothes on instead of her much more party-like singing clothes, it's obvious why she's here.
"My friends. Today holds a special mission that requires an elite team. I need a few volunteers to go on a special mission... to the moon."
A lot of murmurs come up in the crowd. The moon hasn't been touched in 25 years. Even today, when you look in the night sky, you can see a broken moon in two large halves and many smaller parts that form a ring around it. The technology to go off world had been thought lost.
"Yes. It's true. We found an old space craft and with a little fine tuning from some of our best and brightest..." she gives a smile and wink over to Matt. "..the thing works. On one of the abandoned moon bases, there is a very powerful item I need retrieved. With it, our lives will change. That is all I will say about the item for now, but I want volunteers to go to the moon. Remember... according to history, trips to space were no small deal. You could wind up losing some bone matter if you stay in space longer than a week, though that won't be a concern for this trip."
