First decree: Voice post to all

[makeadragonwannaretire]

Attention!

This is Princess Azula attempting to communicate with all others who are currently confined to this vault.

[She's still not entirely sure this thing is going to work and feels very silly sitting in her room speaking into it.]

It has come to my attention that in the short space of time that we have been awake there has been some progress...but minimal communication or coordination between us all. As such I think we have suffered more injuries then necessary to say nothing of the time we've wasted.

As such I propose a meeting. A sort of council of war where we will share the information we have not only about the Vault, but each other.

If things continue to become more dangerous it would be in our best interests to know who we have and what they can do on our side.

If you'd rather keep your affairs to yourself so be it but I encourage you to attend the meeting regardless. We need to make some decisions about how to proceed from this point on.

If you have specific topics you would like to be addressed during this meeting feel free to speak with me privately if you prefer. Otherwise I expect everyone promptly in the Rec Room in three hours.

Snacks and beverages will be provided.

[A pause...and then.]

Also I would appreciate it if someone confirmed for me if this even transmitted. I'll be very cross if this ugly shackle can't even do what it's supposed to.

I've been thinking about that possibility...

I honestly wish I didn't have to, but considering the state of things, it'd less of a matter of 'if' and more of a matter of 'when'.

So I'm hoping we can improve upon the protective gear in this bunker so it will be safer to work on the generator. Even if at least one of the suits is made much stronger and resistant, that's all we'll need from the start since I can work alone.

It'll be slower, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Or dead.

That makes two of us.

Cooler heads must prevail if we want to see progress right now. That means being more defensive. Building our resources and expanding cautiously.

[pride_outbreak]

I agree, so I hope this meeting goes well. For everyone's sake.

Or, it will at least show who can be trusted and who will probably leave us high and dry or put us in danger.

Either way, it was a good call.

[makeadragonwannaretire]

Don't worry, my calls always are.

[She says this with absolute confidence like she can back that up. She can't of course but she also doesn't suspect Saya will call her out on it.]

[pride_outbreak]

Is that so?

I take it you were a formidable leader then?

Though, even the best make mistakes... My father for one. For as great of a leader as he was for his troops, he did make a few himself.

[makeadragonwannaretire]

I like to think so.

I was raised by a great leader after all, as was he by his father. With only a few exceptions one would say my family is made up by winners.

But you're right. Nobodies perfect, despite how close I am.

[pride_outbreak]

You just keep saying things that make me believe we have a lot more in common.

Though, I do wonder if the people who ended up here were pre-planned by those who created this place.

[makeadragonwannaretire]

Perhaps you would have made an excellent firebender if you were in my world.

Now wouldn't that be interesting? Some kind of common thread that ties us together, some grand scheme that requires us to all be here.

But it's a little difficult to imagine what that could be.

[pride_outbreak]

For now.

But once we learn more about this place, we can make a more definite guess as to what really links us to be the ones here, or if it's just some fucked up accident.
