Hello, Echo. Thanks for helping out. Sato can't respond because no one can use the Daydream aside from me and my sister right now. I've mostly seen your posts as an observer, and I'm glad you're doing what you're doing in your semi-home world.
It's literally Daydreaming that we're using a Phone or Computer that connects to Tunglr. Except what we're Daydreaming happens to actually reflect Tunglr. As for how sure with what we're seeing is actually Tunglr - feeling, I guess.
As for the access and understanding -
You can be here indefinitely with permission if you're from Outside.
You can't die for real if you're from Outside. But if you die here, you won't be able to enter this universe again.
You can't bring dangerous objects when you cross. Don't ask me what is considered a dangerous object. The World Boundary has a weird definition of what's dangerous. But in general, if it's more powerful than a grenade, it's probably not going to cross.
Teleportation doesn't really work here.
There's power restrictions, but you won't really be able to tell until you arrive. Things requiring magic tends to be a lot weaker here than in people's home universes - probably because of the low mana density here.
I guess those are the big ones.
Current plan is to wait and see unfortunately. Right now, Sato is lobbying to get better access for parents and guardians to their children - but trying to frame things in a way that it's the President and the federal government's merit - cause our President is an egotistic asshole. That's been taking up most of her time.
Per Sato, the risk of war is not imminent right now. Most of the companies operating across the United States - aka across seceded states - are still operating as usual. Even Jungle, whose HQ is in the Free States, still uses the U.S. Postal Service without any consequence. None of these groups have created a proper border patrol yet, which you'd expect with hostile countries.
We think that all of those groups are more focused on indoctrination than actually conscripting people and that all three states are ultimately puppets for the shadow corpocracy they have going.
This is unfortunately a small piece of a much bigger problem, which is the President declaring that we're on a war footing and declaring martial law to pass policies that shouldn't be passed.
We're making a rough plan to try and retrieve Lils and everyone through force just in case. Problem is we don't actually have the manpower or resources to transport roughly 300 kids all at once. It doesn't help that these camps are regularly scattered through the Appalachian mountains too. If we're caught, it will get very messy across all fronts very quickly.
A vigilante group has already attempted to save the kids in another compound. Over 15 kids have died, and several dozens wounded. Some of those kids actually sounded the alarm against the group trying to save them, which I'm afraid of what's going to happen here. Can't tell if indoctrination actually worked that fast or the kids were originally loyal to the army from the start.
