[Closed] Wolf Liberation Mission

Character(s): Rocket, Daud, Billie, Shura, Strange, Kylo, Dany, & Jon.
Status: Closed
Location(s): The City of the Free Peoples/Defenders' Warcamp
Date(s): February 1st, pre-kidnappings
About: A small team of riffraf break into the Defenders' Warcamp, steal an abused wolf, and then try to figure out what the fuck they do next.
Warnings: Animal abuse and the team kills some people.

They have had weeks to figure this plan out, the team spread across the cities during it but in contact via courier. Daud had used Mercy to get an idea of the routines they were dealing with and all that they had needed after forming a plan was the distraction to kick it off. That distraction came somewhat unexpectedly on the first of the month when the orcs belonging to a group that called themselves Tsekour's Stormers made a heavy return.

With a quick word passed between the members of the team, they gathered not far from the warcamp, avoiding the fighting going on between the two armies outside the city, and set their plan in motion.

As luck would have it, the city's resistance had decided to take the same opportunity and so they had had a surprisingly simple time rescuing the chained and caged wolf, cutting down any defenders that got in their way on the way out and leaving no survivors.

The only problem? The wolf is in a state that healing alone can't fix and the team is left trying to figure out what to do with a starved wolf that members of the team suspect may either be the missing captain or related to him in some way.

Strange telegraphs his opinions on dragons far and wide, so Daud is under no illusions that it's a neutral question. What's more of a surprise is that it's taken the man this long to ask him directly, but all that being said, he'll give an honest response.

"They had power," he says, simply. "The kind of power men would do anything to claim. Even the dragons themselves didn't think they had enough." And the world burned for it, for the madness and greed of dragon blood. Silver eyes study the magician, neutrally, then turn to the wolf curled on the floor.

"... thought where there's any scrap of power to be had, there are always those who'll fight for it." He shrugs, finally. "With or without dragons, I find the world's not much different."

What an annoyingly neutral answer. Strange looks at Daud with a frown. There's obviously something in the other man's statement that's annoyed Strange, but he's staying mum on what the annoying sentiment is.

"If your only criteria for difference is people's behavior, then I suspect you'd give that answer no matter what time we lived in. After all, people have always fought for power and I suspect they always will."
