[Private to Asgard] Expedition Help

[Private]
I'm a little tired...I spent a lot of time last night talking to Metatron about the expedition and trying to think of the best ways.
[/Private]

[Private to Asgard]
Henry said that the first group will be Henry, Dorian and Mr. Graham. If I forgot anyone, please let me know. From there, I tried to gather a list of everyone who sounded like they wanted to come. So...

It seems like there should be three groups for the first exploration attempts. We can always reorganize things later.

I think the best arrangement of people would probably be...
Also, I believe that the most experienced person should probably be regarded as the 'leader' of the expedition, if one becomes needed.

Group A - The area behind Asgard
Henry, Dorian, Mr. Graham

Group B - Emptiness
Alessa, Mr. Sunderland, Blythe

Group C - The area behind Niflheim
Kain, Mitch, Alice

I wasn't sure if Mitch was interested in helping with the expedition or not, so if he doesn't want to be involved then i'll try to rearrange the groups if necessary. Are there any problems, or any better ideas on how to arrange things?

I wasn't sure which direction Group A wanted to head in first, so I also thought there might be a possible list of places. Please, feel free to suggest different things...I may be overlooking a very vital place to check.

1) Emptiness. The empty city between Asgard and Niflheim. People from the more modern Earth would probably be best suited for exploring Emptiness - so Group A or B should probably head there.
2) There should probably be a group that travels past Emptiness to explore what's behind Niflheim. That information might be very useful.
3) The area behind us, for the same reason.

I...wasn't really sure how else to help. Please feel free to disregard all of this, if it ends up being useless. I just thought i'd try to help get things going. How does everyone feel about these options? Which areas would you rather explore, or do you feel you might have more expertise in?

I have no problem with the groups. Not my group, anyway.

My group seems a little more battle ready than the others, so maybe it would be best if we were the ones to tackle the area behind Niflheim. Somehow I doubt the area is very safe, and it wouldn't be wise to send people who aren't ready for it that way.

You're an excellent tactician, Alice. It's a good thing you're on our side.

Yes...that's probably best. I'm not very good at offense, like I've been saying...but I can heal you and Mitch as things happen...if something happens.

I admit, I...I did ask Metatron if it sounded alright to him, before I shared it. I'm a healer...but I have a lot of experience with fighting. I learned how important knowing everyone's strengths and combining them efficiently was when I travelled with my old friends. I'm no tactician, only a concerned person who wants to make sure things go well.

Still...thank you, Kain. I appreciate your sentiments very much.

Don't worry. I'm sure we won't run into anything that the three of us can't handle. And what did I tell you before? Your abilities are just as important as mine, if not more.

I'd probably do the same. Metatron is...well, he's a great guide. I've had my fair share of fighting, too. Tactician or not, it's good of you to make these suggestions.

No problem. I give credit where it's due.

	Those look like really good groups, Alice. Thanks. Um. I think maybe my group can take the area behind Asgard. But those are probably the places to look around and map out first, I think. And, uh...thanks for... that suggestion yesterday. I think it helped. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	cross_of_light 2008-05-16 12:40 am UTC (link)
	Thank you. Hmm...alright, i'll add the current search areas to the groups then. Did it...? I'm glad. It usually helps me. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	my_private_life 2008-05-16 12:42 am UTC (link)
	We should be thanking you. Yeah. I got some sleep last night. I guess I just... needed to get a lot of things out there. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cross_of_light 2008-05-16 12:45 am UTC (link)
	N-no, you don't need to do that! I just wanted...to help somehow. I'm glad I could at least do this. Yes...sometimes things build up, and we have to find a way to release it. Them. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	my_private_life 2008-05-16 12:48 am UTC (link)
	Well... um, I am really grateful. And I think a lot of other people will be, too. Yeah. Yeah that's just how it is, isn't it? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	cross_of_light 2008-05-18 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	Oh dear. Mr. Townshend, would it be acceptable if Blythe joined you? Her blindness seems to make her useful in forested, natural habitats but in Emptiness itself she says she would be unable to lend a hand. Also, she can use herbs to heal people...so if anything happened she'd be there to help. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	my_private_life 2008-05-18 10:26 pm UTC (link)
	Oh, yeah, that'd be fine. She's welcome to come with us. And that's real good, her herbs and stuff. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	pyro_madness 2008-05-16 02:03 am UTC (link)
	Oh cool, I'm with you and Kain. Yeah, I definitely wanna go! Being cooped up at the mansion is kinda gettin' to me, heh. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	cross_of_light 2008-05-16 04:26 am UTC (link)
	It'll be wonderful to have you with us, Mitch! (Reply to this) (Parent)

	franksunderland 2008-05-16 11:39 am UTC (link)
	That's fine for me, Miss Elliot. Thank you for your work on this. (You might want to ask Miss Blythe about the Emptiness, because I think she said she'd have difficulty "seeing" there. Not that I don't want her as a companion, of course. And maybe I'm wrong. I don't mean to speak out of turn.) (Reply to this)

	boy_silhouette 2008-05-18 04:33 am UTC (link)
	Yay! I'm...excited! (Reply to this)

	blind_oracle 2008-05-18 04:36 am UTC (link)
	I'm terribly sorry for upsetting your plans, but I would do horribly in Emptiness. Whatever group goes into Emptiness, I will not be able to attend, as I would only hinder them with my blindness. Would it be best if I stayed at Asgard? I wish not to be a problem. (Reply to this) (Thread)

I will ask if you might go with Mr. Townshend's group - I would welcome you to join Group C, but I think it would be wisest if we divide those with healing capabilities between the others.

However, it could be that Mr. Sunderland and Miss Gillespie help you in Emptiness, simply so that you can overcome your disadvantage? Perhaps you could learn to count steps to different places. It might lessen your disadvantage?

Do not feel sorry, Miss Blythe! It was my fault, for failing to think of that detail. I will try to rearrange things.

I certainly wouldn't mind travelling with Mr. Sunderland and Alessa. I have nothing but the utmost respect for them. If it is easiest to go with them, I understand completely.

Though, in many ways you are right. I've been in my comfort space far too long, you see. I do believe that maybe I should branch outside of the forests.

No, let me stay with Mr. Sunderland and Alessa. If I must learn, then this is the best time to do so. I thank you for your consideration!
