The conclusion to this campaignlet is being done through email. I will be posting everyone's responses here on the blog. PC responses will be in bold.
You and 2 dozen others spent the cold night huddled together in a hunting lodge in the forest that separates the city from the suburbs. It was a tense night, and very few of you got any sleep. People diligently took turns patrolling, and keeping an eye on that lost little alien cube. Dr. Biaochi learned much from that cube, he talked about his home planet and how it has become devoid of metallic substances, how he found aluminum foil to be delicious, and if his extensive knowledge of quantum physics. He spoke of his parental unit, and hoped she would return for he found your kind to be strange and frighting.
The morning slowly came, and many were relieved to have survived the night. People went to work, setting up the basement as a make-shift hospital and laboratory, a small group went into to town to look for any other survivors and collect any useful salvage. While another group went hunting for game. Zebbi tried to calm the group, by singing her songs and distracting them from the recent events.
Around noon, the earth started to shake and there was a loud humming noise. Most ran and hid in the basement, while the more brave ventured outside to see what was going on. Your little cube friend started humming excitedly and urged you to go out and look.
A floating cube, much larger than any you had seen or heard about approached. This entity was the size of a small house, and it glimmered in the noon sunlight. 5 figures stood proudly on top waving enthusiastically to the onlookers below, the baby cube zoomed up and appeared to great the larger cube and started darting about the larger cube. One of the figures on top gracefully floated down to the ground to greet you, followed by the other four who landed directly behind him.
When he landed, you instantly recognized him as your country's president. Although he was altered slightly, around his head hovered 3 green leaves, and his skin almost seemed to glow in the noon light.
"Greetings, my citizens. I am pleased to have found you. Come, join us, and be frightened no more." Your president reaches out his arms as if to embrace you all.
I (Zebbi) say to the President "Hi Honey! What's up with the new hair style?"
The president smiles, "There are plants on our new home that even our most brilliant scientists could not have convinced." He pulls from his pocket a green leaf with a purple sheen, "Try this, for example. And you will be able to see beyond the narrow spectrum we have been limited to."
