A War Approaches

Primer: You have been personally contacted by a representative of the newly formed Lazlo Emergency Planning Bureau. A team is being put together to journey to the surviving Baronies of Tolkeen in order to reestablish old ties and determine their current state. Along the way, assessments of the surrounding territories [including the Tolkeen zone] and the current status of other field agents is requested.
Setting: Lazlo is reeling after the Night of Chaos which began with an attack upon its TW-PPE network by an unknown creature. The basic utilities have been disrupted, several districts have suffered damage from the subsequent rioting and Little Tolkeen has been ravaged. Lazlo no longer controls the leyline nexus within its bound nor its connected tributaries and must move quickly to shore up defenses before enemies capitalize on this. As the COTE reaches a détente with the newly formed astral province, New Tolkeen, the Lazlo Militia has been recalled to maintain the peace and consolidate closer to home. To deal with the myriad issues facing the City-State the Emergency Planning Bureau has been formed and works to prepare for the coming struggles.
