Throne Room of Team Retribution

Retribution Throne Room

Contested throne room that is abandoned, captured, and abandoned again within a single sequence of system messages.

Story so far

Three system messages fire in quick succession. First, the Throne Room of Team Retribution has been abandoned by the War Mage Rebellion and the City Defense System has gone inert. Second, it is now occupied by forces from the Princess Posse, with the note that holding it for six hours would win Faction Wars. Third, it has been abandoned again and fallen back into control of Team Retribution.

The cause is Li Na, who tore glowing and silent through the castle while the remaining war mages opened a portal and disappeared. Britney reports the rampage to Carl, who concludes Li Na is hunting Epitome Tagg and Warlord Fang because she cannot heal until they are dead.

Appearance

A castle throne room emptied by a portal escape, changing hands three times in minutes.

Role

The prize whose brief capture and loss shows how close and how fragile the Faction Wars win is.

Relationships

Team Retribution — Its owning team, which regains it by default
War Mage Rebellion — Abandons it and portals away
Princess Posse — Briefly occupies it
Li Na — Her rampage empties it
