Presidential (Part 1)

MILITARY

2107-2114

In 2105 and 2106 No actions were taken in this category

Marshal the Troops: The SDC has come a long way since its inception, the only organisation that you could truly call a professional fighting force. It’s not the only one however, and though EarthGov has kept meticulous records on expenditures, the actual breakdown of forces available to you is…less than satisfactory.

2107
- The Solarian Defence Corps: Grown from humble origins, the SDC is the most well-known of all humanity’s creations that will oppose the Shiplords. Numbering in the tens of thousands, a full accounting of their strength could not go amiss.
- Potentials: The products of the Awakenings are without question the most powerful weapon in the arsenal of mankind. Devices and weaponry without peer, skill applicable to the battlefield that goes beyond superhuman, and in the case of the First Awoken a promise of fire and will that the Week of Sorrows will never again touch humanity.
2109
- Experimental/Auxiliary formations: There are over a score of these projects, some having apparently been steadily working away since before you left your Institute. At least you hope they’ve been working for all that time. Some of what’s talked about in the records sounds completely insane, but fifty years ago the same was said of the theory that underlies your power.

Full Inventory: There was never much order to the work of the First Awoken to begin with, and much of it was secretive at first. There are many weapons and other Practiced devices scattered across the globe known only to few. Old as they may be they are still creations of Practice, and that makes them valuable.

2107-2108
- Search for weapons: The weapons of the First remain without peer, and the stories of some of the power of some of the lost devices are both chilling and incredible. With war looming, you need every piece of that power that you can find.
2107-2109
- Search for devices: Weapons were most of what the First Awoken created, but it was not all. The Elder First are said to have built many things in the first years after the awakening, all of which vanished five years later. What did they create, and why did they choose to lose it?

Forging the Sword: The only blows humanity successfully struck against the Shiplords were made in space, but although you have returned to the stars again, little of what plies the dark is military. There was little need for it, but that’s all changed now. All you have to do is work out which of the proposals you want your Minister to push.

2108-2109
- The Haft: The proposal from the SDC is well made, a new line of warships reinforced by Practice to expand their limited space presence. Individually they’ll still be much weaker than Shiplord vessels, but quantity has a quality of its own. And from the looks of their plan, they’ve been working on the tactics and logistics involved for the last three decades.
2109
- The Hilt: You really didn’t expect that Restorers like yourself would have an idea for the fleet, but it years out that you’d be wrong. The weapons of the Shiplords were unlike anything humanity had ever encountered, but Practice could level that playing field. Using some of the results gleaned from Project Insight, they’ve designed a vessel that should be able to shield others from Shiplord fire. Each one requires fine Practice, limiting their numbers, but as a shield they will be without peer.
- The Blade: The plan created by the First is unsurprising, but exceptionally detailed in terms of costs and time required. They also seem to have known about the other proposals before you did, which raises some interesting questions. When the Shiplords came, they came in small numbers, and the workings of Project Insight lead the First to believe that they may be able to build ships capable of matching them. Not many, but if the Week of Sorrows was anything to go by you won’t need many if they can match Shiplord technology.

Humanity’s Shield: Weapons are well and good, but a solar system makes for a vast fortress given time. Here you have something to work with as well, as all of humanity’s orbitals are equipped with some weaponry. There’s always room for improvement however, and a new need for it too.

2108
- Eyes to See: You can’t hit an enemy you can’t see coming, so a network of sensor platforms at the edge of the heliosphere has been proposed. These should give you some early warning of the Shiplords’ arrival and help you secure the system.
2108-2109
- The Aegis: Orbitals are well and good, but Project Insight has shown that the Shiplords can be a truly spiteful people. You have some planetary defences, but nothing unified, and the planetary shield network has been stalled in the construction phase for years. If humanity is to live, you must be able to protect Earth.
2109
- Walls of Steel: The new orbitals across the solar system are all armed, but their construction was never designed to hold up to Shiplord firepower; only Prometheus Station coming close. That can be fixed, but it will take time.

Potential Combat Doctrine: The First are an eclectic bunch, all with different styles of participating in combat, and this has only become worse as the Second and Third have come into their own. Lina has been trying to put together a common doctrine for Potentials for a while, and she’s made progress. The problem is that no one has been willing to put it to the test, but it’s easy enough to change that.

2108-2109
- Swift Caution: You’d love to take more time to make sure all of this will work, but there’s a war on the horizon. Formalise the package, run it through a quick editing, then distribute and begin training rotations.

DIPLOMACY

2105-2108

2105
- Presidential Address: It is a tradition older than democracy itself that a new leader speaks to their people on taking the reins of power and lays out plans for the future. In turbulent times, it gives people something to hold on to, and you know the importance of the mind and soul far better than most.

Those Behind the Curtain: The government is not just you and your cabinet. There are hundreds, thousands in fact, of others who take part in the process of keeping humanity stable. Recently they have been extremely overworked, and it wouldn’t be hard to arrange some social occasions to meet them and get to know the people who will be implementing your plans.

2105
- The Bureaucracy: The thousands who will be responsible for putting your decisions into action, it’s actually surprisingly small when compared to the governments of the old world. These are the people who have been most stressed by the sudden changes that came with the Pattern’s discovery, but also the most experienced in navigating EGOV ’s complex web.
2106
- Holdout Administration: Marcus has identified the people within the bureaucracy who appear to be the centre of the distributed web that is resisting your overtures. You’ve no skill in that arena, but he’s pointed out that it was in large part your direct involvement boosting their spirits that let him find the agents. Kazuki doesn’t particularly like it, he feels it could compromise your integrity, but you can try.
2106-2107
- The World Congress: Although they’ve stepped down from their voting duties, the Congress is still the elected voice of the world that you now lead. With the voluntary suspension of debating policy, they now have far more time to dedicate to their constituencies then you do and are a potential gold mine of information and experience, if you can win their confidence.

Reach to the World: You’ve spent years trying to put the world back together, but even a Potential has limits. The Circles helped, but there’s more that can be done. A world united is a powerful thing, but you’ve already done most of the easy work. Now you have to work out the hard parts.

2105
- Those of the Circles: The Circles are present across all of human society, and you know that many of them see things as you do. They could give you a complete picture, although putting it all together could be difficult.

One World, One Heart: Kazuki has been far more personally exposed to the needs and desires of the people, and he has some suggestions for how to bring all closer together. He’s quite adamant about the need for them, and although you agree you can’t quite see how some of it is meant to work.

2105
- The People Sing: You know the power of music; it’s been a way of finding peace ever since you were a teenager. Kazuki knows it even better, and has prepared a series of events that will use it to bring the world together. The plan has you speaking at several, but apparently you’re singing at a few as well. You’re not sure how you feel about that, to be honest.
2106
- Starlit Allegro: The concerts and speeches were a resounding success, exhausting and exhilarating at the same time. It gave your name a human weight so unlike what’s normally ascribed to Potentials. Kazuki is overjoyed, but also tells you that there’s more you can do. Earth saw you last year, now he wants the people of the scattered habitats to get the same chance.
2108
- Honour in Sacrifice: It was a small number by the standards of the last major loss of human life, but the sacrifice of your detail is something that Kazuki says should be honoured. He adds on a more pragmatic note that it would allow you to show that you are truly alright, and soothe the concerns of the public.

2109 - No actions taken in this category

2110-2114

STEWARDSHIP

2105-2114

The Forge: Although the Shiplords did not burn the Earth, they did destroy the vast majority of its orbital infrastructure and it took time to rebuild that without the ease of the First Secret. Much has been remade, but the humanity of the Second Secret had no great need for shipyards or war factories. If you are to create a force that can face the Shiplords, however, Earth must have them.

2105
- The Lifeblood of War: The sort of militarisation you’re going to need will require vast amounts of resources, and Earth is nearing the end of her vast supply. Fortunately, there are other places you can go in the solar system.
2105-2106
- Steel Wombs: Most of humanity’s ships have been built on Earth, or in the few small berths that have been constructed since you returned to the stars. But for the war, you will need vessels far larger and more complex than anything humans have ever built. For that you’ll need a proper shipyard complex.
2106
- The World’s Forge: With the mining stations complete in record time, there is a new need for orbital smelters, refineries, and other infrastructure of every type imaginable. With Adriana on course to bring the shipyard complex online next year, she explains that this will allow for a significant buildup of necessary resources and parts.
2106-2107
- The Old World’s Bounty: That is not to say that the world of your birth is without use, however. You know yourself that there are scores of old factories that could be brought back online to help support the war effort.
- Girded in Miracle: The Potentials are capable of truly incredible works, and you know from the reports of Project Insight that these miracles will be needed. Perhaps you could organise them into a more effective construction force?
- Reaching Heaven: Currently your entire ground-to-orbit setup is something of a mess, even with Potentials having replaced crude chemical rockets with much more efficient flight mechanisms. An old plan from before the Week of Sorrows might help fix that, although the costs make your head spin. It’s called a Space Elevator.

-

2105
Amateurs study Tactics…: You spent ten years of your youth rebuilding parts of the old world, and that included the meticulous infrastructure that has been badly damaged by a severe lack of proper maintenance. Surely you can do more to repair it now.
- Full Rebuild: You’ve worked with the network on many occasions, and you know it rather well. Bringing some of your expertise to bear on this problem should allow you to do everything you need to at once.
2106
…Masters study Logistics: With the network coming back online at the start of the year, you find several competing options about how to use it.
- All the World a Stage: This one came out of your vast success in public events, and it’s been pointed out that the net could support far more bandwidth and at faster speeds. Along with the obvious advantages, it would also allow for full hologram broadcasts.

Healing Hands:

2106-2108
- Cities of Light: Most of humanity still lives in sprawling settlements that have grown around the Institutes, but hundreds of millions have found their way to the glittering cities that the Restorer-Focused rebuilt over the last thirty years. This is long work, and will take time to come to fruition, but moving all of Earth into Practice-built cities would have many benefits.

Mars

2106
Red Ashes: When Mars burned, you lost more than lives. On that world lay some of the most advanced facilities ever built, and everything they had worked on was lost. You’re not sure how Mary is likely to feel about trying to reclaim the world her family died on, but it’s worth trying.
- Base of Operations: Establish a small base on the burned planet. It’ll let you do some of the survey with boots on the ground, and should speed up the entire process.

2107-2108
Skylark Reborn: The Miracle of Skylark. First Practiced Miracle since the discovery of the Pattern, that many had believed had signalled the end of those glories. It’s impossible to understate the value of Vega’s Miracle as a symbol, but it does leave you in the rather interesting position of having to decide what to do with it.
- Return to Red Sand: It had always been your intention to return in full to Mars, and Vega’s Miracle presents the perfect opportunity. It will be something of a rush job, but with the advantages that she and the other Potentials have given, it should also be possible.

Engineering Corps: Robert’s brainchild for almost a decade now, he’s finally in the position to start putting it into place. Adriana knows engineering and design a lot better, but she doesn’t know Potentials like he does.

2108
- Extend the Department: Turning the new department into a fully-fledged independent affiliate will take time and resources, but will allow for swifter expansion and redeployment down the line.

Thera’s Mystery: You know that Adriana is working on something on the side, she’s told you as much, but even now all she will tell you about it is what she’d need to make whatever it is useable. Something that should revolutionise the design process, if she’s to be believed. The fact that she’s been talking with Mary about it as well is something you are glad for and at the same time slightly terrified by. What to do…

2105-2108
- Overwhelming support: If Mary has continued talking to her after she explained the idea, then it has to have merit. Throw every resource you can at the project. If she needs access to the entire distributed network, she’ll have it and more besides.

INTRIGUE(2105-2114)

The Spider’s Web: EarthGov is a finely balanced web of competing interests, one that has been flung vastly out of balance by the discovery of the Pattern and your election as President. Your understanding of that web is rather lacking, however, and it’s been strongly suggested that you fix that.

2105
- The Administration: They’ve been thrown for a loop by your appointment far more than Congress, so it might be expected that they’d hold a few grudges. They also are the ones responsible for actually implementing policy, which makes their happiness with you much more important than you thought.
2106
- - The World Congress: The single most powerful check to Presidential power, they’ve ceded effectively complete power to you. Who pushed for that? Why? And what do they think of you?
- Cat’s Cradle: Someone is pulling strings within your administration, trying to break the hold that your actions last year gave you. You still can’t understand why anyone would do that, you’re trying to save the world, but Marcus’ report is very clear. You can’t ignore this.
2107
- The Cabinet: You almost had a screaming argument with Marcus when you saw this suggestion. Almost. He knows the ins and outs of politics far better than you, and although the entire idea makes you feel a bit dirty inside…he might have a point. Maybe.

Know thy Enemy: The Shiplords are coming, you know that now, and if you are to be prepared you must know what they are truly capable of.

2105
- Insight requires…Insight: Most of Project Insight is only slowly becoming accessible to you, and the charitable part of you can understand why. Unfortunately, you need access to the resources of that project now.
2108
- Visions of the Lost: There are, now that you think of it, records of the Shiplords during the battles that began the Week of Sorrows. Recorded across every spectrum that humanity knew of at that time, they could be a valuable resource that none have thought to tap.

-

2107-2108
- Watching the Stars: When the Shiplords handed down the Directives, they said that any violation would be swiftly punished. To the suspicious minded, that would suggest that they left eyes behind. How about you go looking for them…so you can poke them out.

-

2108
- Forensic Detail: Throw the full weight of the Ministry behind the investigation into the assassination attempt, and support it on a governmental level. Autopsy the remains of the assassins, and track them back to the source.

LEARNING (2105-2114)

The Neverending Journey: The pursuit of knowledge is an endless path, with no set beginning or end. Mary has been walking it since she was small, and has found only a few like her in that time. You count yourself lucky to be among them, even if you’ve fallen a little behind. Now she wants to do something with what they know.

2105
- Bring it Together: Expand the Ministry of Science to include these dedicated followers of knowing, allowing them to put all of their knowledge directly to work.

The Neverending Journey, Second Step: All of the scientists on Mary’s list have settled into their new working and living environment now, and you can see how happy your friend is to be surrounded by those just as passionate as she is. Now that they’re all integrated however, they need a direction.

2106
- Curious Words: During the last year, you felt the presence of Practice where you would not expect to. On telling Mary, she quietly requisitioned every recording she could get her hands on and is now prepared to begin a full analysis of the occasions where you remember the feel of power as you spoke or sang. Maybe she’ll find something.

-

2106-2107
- Void Secrets: The Directives forbade use of the First and Second Secrets on pain of extinction, but they never said anything about learning more of the Secrets of the Void. Mary is daughter to the man who discovered the First Secret, heir to the legacy of the Void in more ways than one. None have wished to delve into this field for fear of drawing attention to Earth, but now that you know of the Pattern there is little need for caution.
2108
Things found on Mars and by Mary. Directions to explore.
- Small is Beautiful: The Potentials have given many Miracles within the field of nanotechnology, and science has struggled for years to catch up to them. Some of what the first generations of Prologue could do is now in the grasp of ‘regular’ science, but there were those in the Red Tower who disagreed with humanity’s focus on the Second Secret.

The Red Tower: One of the main centres of research on Mars before the Burning, the Red Tower was also one of the primary conversion points for the atmospheric conversion system better known as Clear Skies. Fully restored and online after the Miracle of Skylark, it is a treasure trove waiting to be unlocked.

2107
- Tower of Babylon: The tower’s research levels remain in lockdown, old files revealing that the Shiplord focus on Mars had suggested to some leaders that they had been after the data held within. The codes to unlock the levels are on record, but in the chaos of the Week of Sorrows there was little enough time to transfer control of Earth’s network codes, let alone those of a planet razed to the ground.

Practiced Power: The Potentials are the most powerful weapon humanity has, but it’s a weapon that you still know frighteningly little about. Mary now has access to far more resources than she did before, maybe you can help her along.

2108
- The Making of Miracles: Practice can bring forth the untapped potential of any object, limited as it is by a Potential’s Focus. A lot of Practice is personal, but some is similar, and a formal foundation to work from could help many of the Third.

PRACTICE (2105-2114)

2105-2106
- Soul Over Body: The example of Marcus Romero shows the power of a Potential’s gift when turned inwards, something only a few of the First have done to a similar degree. You’ve seen one side of a Potential’s power. This is another, and it bears exploring.

Project Harmony: Practiced Miracles are the result of joint Trances, a process that you believe allows a group of Potentials to widen the lens through which they project their power to include all of their Focuses. Vega has an understanding of this process far more advanced than she should, which is one of the reasons you believed her. Now you’re going to give her the chance to build on it.

2106
- Hey, Listen!: Lab work and teaching are good ideas, but they’re not thinking big enough. Assign Vega to lead the Potential involvement with one of your new projects, and then just let what happens happen.
2107-2108
Another section of your policy made almost entirely invalid by the Miracle of Skylark, Vega now has all the proof she needs to point to of her ability. Far more will accept her advice with an example like that behind her. Of course, you could also choose to send her to another project, although other actions taken by the Ministry will suffer.
- Practical Proofs: One of the reasons that she’s been having so much trouble is that she’s not been able to actually show her work. Bring in some Potentials and get them to Practice with her, that should get some results.

PERSONAL (2105-2114)

Brushing Up: You used to be able to keep up with Mary most of the time, and she’s teased you on occasion about how just a little focus could help you there. On the other hand, your new State Minister has been making quiet inquiries about your singing voice, and it pays to be at your best.

2105-2106
- Singing Heart: Music, particularly song, has always been an escape for you, a way to reconnect with yourself. You’ve also found it an excellent way to connect with a large number of people, but you’re not really sure about the concerts Kazuki seems to want you to be part of. Taking some time to practice properly should help
2106-2107
- Powerful Echoes: You’ve become steadily more convinced over the years that there is something deeper hiding in what Potentials can do, some ability to touch concepts and influence metaphysics in a way that is terribly hard to understand. You’ve reached for it before, see if you can find it again, and hold onto it this time.
2108-2109
- Music of the Soul: Even though you’re back to where you were before, there’s always room to improve further. And you’re starting to find a real connection between music and your ability to touch the stranger side of your Potential.
2108-2109
- Power in Balance: Vega made it quite clear that you needed to heal in a way not of the physical when she met you after the attack. She also somehow got Mary to support her, and so this was less of a request and more of a notification.

Turns taking place during the years of Amanda Hawk’s temporary retirement from life as a public figure.

These turns were long and contained many small sub votes to determine Amanda’s reactions. This section only contains the initial vote due to the complexity of the sub votes.

2120 - Turn 15

MAJOR

Cities and Circles: The Circles are your greatest and most enduring creation, according to many. Now that you’re free of the demands of government, you can finally give them the attention that they deserve again. Amelie is deeply excited by this possibility, and she tells you that every member of the Hearts shares that feeling. You’re not quite sure it’s so universal, but you aren’t going to argue. There’s so much that the vast family you started building as a child can do; for themselves, humanity, and you. If Practice can be brought together by focus, they’re the perfect place to start.
- Halo LINK
- The strength of the Circles has always been in their greater connection, and you are a part of that no less than the newest member. Yet, it’s been fifteen years since you last walked with them. You already plan on remedying this, but it might be wiser to prepare them for what you plan to ask before actually doing so. Dedicating the majority of your time this year simply to being with them again will greatly strengthen the foundation for the work to come. It will also give you a perfect reason to travel widely across the intertwined organisations.

MINOR

Mother of Circles: Beyond returning to the Circles to learn and teach, there’s also the opportunity to simply be part of them again. You never lost your place among them, you simply set it aside for a time. Now you can return to it if you wish, to grow and build.
Valkyries: The Two Twenty Three were the only force to emerge from the Second Battle of Sol intact, after facing the most lethal of the FSN’s enemies in that fight. They brought down the Medicament, and faced Shiplords in direct combat aboard Calypso. Yet there is much that can still be done to temper the blade of the Unisonbound, and you are part of that weapon. It must not be marred by imperfections. (Must be taken within three years)
Incarnate: Iris. The first AI born instead of created. Young, headstrong, brilliant, and ultimately the perfect poster child for how little your race has to fear from the 3rd Revolution. Except, she cannot walk among you. Not really. She is bound to holographic networks if she wishes to project an avatar, and that just isn’t good enough. Not for her, or humanity.
Faith and Certainty: The quasi-religious movement that existed before your personal engagement with a Shiplord surged to life after the end of the Second Battle of Sol. It began in the Circles, despite how you’d never wanted people to…believe in you like that. But now you can try to understand where it came from, and what the movement's trying to be.

PERSONAL

Unison Training: Training with the entire Two Twenty Three is one thing, but you can get just as much personally out of dedicating time to work with your own small part of it. Vega, Kalilah and you represent three of the organisations most powerful members, and a high level of synchronicity between you will reflect on the rest even without full group training. Of course, combining the two will make that effect much stronger.
Harmonic Voice: Vega’s Harmonic Circle will be attempting their first group workings this year, but that pressure is far less than she was under as a Minister. After her monumental success in Speaking at the Elder’s Vault, continuing to work with her can only benefit you both.
Child of Sight: Some have called Iris your daughter. In this case, the some would not be entirely wrong; you’re definitely one of the most important people in the young AI’s life. You might not be the expert that Amelie is, but the last time you checked, stability was important for children.
Blood Ties: You hadn’t properly seen your family for far too long, and apparently, they weren’t willing to wait for invitations. With the Residence mostly empty, they’ve taken over several parts of it and have been exceptionally clear in their intent to stay. President Hawk might have had valid reasons for them not being able to do that. ‘Mandy…less so.
Restoration: You’re adamant that you know how to relax, even if you might be more than a decade out of practice. Your siblings and friends, traitors one and all, don't believe you. They also outnumber you, and Vega is one of the few Unisonbound who is actually capable of catching you. She appears to be far too willing to carry through on that threat if you attempt to escape, as well.

2121 - Turn 16

- A Shared Brilliance LINK
- What you’re trying to do here is unlike anything else you’ve deliberately attempted. To tap the well of power through many, all with only a fraction of the strength that you possess yourself. Put bluntly, you’re flying blind here. The Circles possess a great many scientists, however. Between all of you, a better understanding of what you’re attempting to do should be well within your ability to grasp. With how the Circles appear to be put together on some levels, this might be able to help your scheduled work with Vega as well.

Mother of Circles: Beyond returning to the Circles to learn and teach, there’s also the opportunity to simply be part of them again. You never lost your place among them, you simply set it aside for a time. Now you can return to it if you wish, to grow and build.
Tinker: Being free of your old role changed many things, but one that didn’t was your interest in creating and understanding your own Practiced creations. Two of those remain unknown to you in full, and you finally have the time to study them. You also now have the time to dedicate to creation again. With all your new understanding of Practice. That’s going to be interesting.
- A Mender’s Forge (Write-in):An oscilloscope -An ordinary oscilloscope is used to measure voltage waveforms, and can be adapted to observe other signals. Amanda's Practiced oscilloscope can observe... somewhat more esoteric phenomena.
Avatar: It took a lot of work, but Iris has a body now, forged of Sixth Secret technology so advanced as to be almost beyond you. Yet there’s still so much more that could be done to enhance the form created for her. As an infomorph, Iris may be uniquely capable of integrating Sixth Secret technology into her shell. Mary’s wanted to upgrade the basic system she designed since it was finished. And if you can’t give your daughter an Aegis, you’ll give her the next best thing.

PERSONAL

Child of Sight: Some have called Iris your daughter. In this case, the some would not be wrong; you’re definitely one of the most important people in the young AI’s life. You might not be the expert that Amelie, but the last time you checked, stability was important for children.
Graves Down Memory Lane: Your part in the Mytikas Restoration has remained a secret, but Mary knows the part you played in it. She was born and grew up in that vast city, and with its complete Restoration…her childhood home has also been recovered. She is going to go see it. The only questions are when, and if you’ll be travelling with her.
Unison Training: Training with the entire Two Twenty Three is one thing, but you can get just as much personally out of dedicating time to work with your own small part of it. Vega, Kalilah and you represent three of the organisations most powerful members, and a high level of synchronicity between you will reflect on the rest even without full group training. Of course, combining the two will make that effect much stronger.
Blood Ties: Having your family with you for a year was a blessing in many ways, even if it took time for you to properly realise that. They'd moved out of the Residence now, but they were still close enough for you to spend time with if you wanted to. And it being your choice this time might be nice.
Restoration: You’re adamant that you know how to relax, even if you’ve only had a year to start practicing again. Your siblings and friends, traitors one and all, aren’t entirely willing to believe you. Given how much that disbelief did help you last year, it might be an idea to trust it again. They clearly got something right.

Mary’s Arcadia

Turns taking place during the year(s) of Amanda Hawk’s handing the reigns to the Arcadia Institute to Mary D’reve.

2130 - Turn 25

MINOR

Mother of Circles: Beyond returning to the Circles to learn and teach, there’s also the opportunity to simply be part of them again. You never lost your place among them, you simply set it aside for a time. Now you can return to it if you wish, to grow and build.
Valkyries: The Two Twenty Three were the only force to emerge from the Second Battle of Sol intact, after facing the most lethal of the FSN’s enemies in that fight. They brought down the Medicament, and faced Shiplords in direct combat aboard Calypso. Yet there is much that can still be done to temper the blade of the Unisonbound, and you are part of that weapon. With Third Sol swiftly approaching, even the smallest flaw could be fatal. None must be.
Nexus: Before the Second Battle of Sol, you forged a nexus of power from your words that eventually granted you the strength to Speak Purify upon the Medicament that travelled with the Tribute Fleet. Now, Adriana has suggested you do so once again, for the battle to come.
Worldheart: Humanity is far more stable and ready for this moment than it was for the Second Battle of Sol, but that doesn’t mean entirely. Adding your voice to those working to maintain that stability might not be needed, but it would help in ways nothing else could.

PERSONAL

Unison Training: Training with the entire Two Twenty Three is one thing, but you can get just as much personally out of dedicating time to work with your own small part of it. Vega, Kalilah and you represent three of the organisations most powerful members, and a high level of synchronicity between you will reflect on the rest even without full group training. Of course, combining the two will make that effect much stronger.
Bonds of Blood and Laughter: Although your sabbatical has ended, you won’t be missing your friends or family as much as you did before. Lead Director of Arcadia is a big job, but it pales in comparison to the Presidency. Still, you could always make more time.
Lyrics of Fire: You can remember the melody of the song that rang in your mind in the moment you spoke Purify the first time, at the height of the Second Battle of Sol, but you cannot find the words. To Speak as you did then, or even surpass it, you must find not just the shape and feel and sound of humanity, but the music which makes it more than a civilisation of those who are simply living.
