Jack watches the building in front of him with interest. "So these are the people who tried to get Giraffalope. They are yet so flawed in a way they don't understand."
He keys his communicator. "Fire in the hole."
The sky fills for a moment with deadly retribution. The ground quakes and shifts as the storm from above decimates everything around it. Even the munitions were vaporized before they could explode.
Jack speaks again. "Target destroyed."
They were going to regret coming to Offtopic.
_______________________________________________________________________________________
The main city of Offtopic was once a beautiful, peaceful place. Children once ran through the streets. There were busy markets and packed offices. But Offtopic being Offtopic, it never stayed that way. The oceans had come to life and the Elementals attacked, destroying much of the city. Now the builders were over scheduled, with too few people to finish the jobs set before them. Then they arrived.
Strange metal creatures and alien beings. They were clearing up rubble and turning it into raw resources, and packaging belongings into boxes to be given to their owners. They were rebuilding houses. Some were even at the ocean, constructing a massive wall impervious to the tsunamis, earthquakes, and hurricanes that would one day test their might against it.
But why are they here?
This is for you to discover.

Goal: investigate the new arrivals and their purposes, and possibly help repair the city[/spoiler]
