PSL--AU Setting for Lylith and Artemis

Genessia-AU
Background Setting: Based on the Genessia Dreamwidth game for ease and continuing CR. There are 5 cities, 4 arranged at cardinal points around a central one (Genessia City). Each city is reached through an archway, and the cities themselves are surrounded by Shields. Breaking these shields is a *bad* idea, as there are spirits outside and what they want hasn't fully been determined yet. Just to begin with.

Each of the cities has their own 'theme' and setting of sorts, with Genessia in the center being where most everyone arrives and the most 'blandly' modern of sorts.

World-wise, not much has changed greatly since Cassian Andor and K2SO vanished. People come, and people go, and sadly people are no closer to finding the reasons why or the specifics of 'how'. A few of the new arrivals have actually stirred up quite a bit of trouble. The biggest of these being a God (or at least they claimed to be), trying to claim the entire city of Fayren for their own.

That hadn't gone down well at all, and certainly not without a fight.

Perhaps that was the tipping point, or maybe Shigaraki's assault on Bulla and calling out of 'heroes' were working. Certainly heroes like Bakugo (before he'd vanished) weren't helpful with 'good' publicity to counteract it. It was an issue that affected all cities, and permeated all of them, with no clear answer.

How do ordinary people without special abilities deal with those who did have them? What protection was there, other than relying on those who were 'good' with powers? How much was too much?

An appeal to the so-called God's pride (and perhaps arrogance on their part) had seen them challenge all comers in the Coliseum, but that was the only place that could really contain the energies and damage involved.

It was a low murmur of unrest, not yet a powder keg. But it was there, along with discussions again of just what the role of "guardians" were vs. usual law-enforcement or bounty-hunting. In addition to the usual interpersonal conflicts, with not everyone able to leave old grudges behind.

OOC: Suggest we start with Cass/K2's return? However you guys would like to do so.

"It looks like we are." Cassian's voice is measured, cautious, as if he were remarking on the progress of a mission and not as if his entire life has just taken another unexpected twist.

He inspects their surroundings with keen, attentive eyes, yet the fact that he remains firmly glued to K-2SO's side during this may be far more telling about his state of mind than he would like it to be. His head is aching and feels scrambled as if he had gone one round too many with an Imperial interrogation droid but he remembers Attleton, even if he doesn't remember how they got back here, or from where they returned.

"Can you tell how much time has passed?" he asks quietly. It is evening and the streets are mostly deserted but not completely, which is a good sign. "We should go to the Guardian's office. Or... home." He hesitates at this. With people constantly coming and going, Sonico might be gone. Chances were, there would be other people living there now, whether with her or alone.

A grim little smile flickers over his face. "Knowing us, I wouldn't be surprised if we reappeared during some grand catastrophe." His hand finds Kay's hip, fingers brushing it in wordless reassurance.
