Eisen und Blut, feat. Peccatulum Sweep. A report of the recent events in L Corp. territory

Since I have finally have the time to wind down and write this out, here it is. Note that some of the details were obscured* by myself as they fall under an NDA, but after a brief consultation I was advised to include them. All the same, the information does not fall under Hana Association´s censorship policy, so I had to make do with what resources I have available.

*■■■■■■■■■ ■■■■ is not responsible for any attempts of accessing the obscured information

Following a wave of peculiar inactivity from the peccatula in the fallen L Corp. streets, necessary research was conducted. After studying the resources provided by the Dieci Association´s library, it appeared that a foreign dangerous presence has entered the territory, upsetting the "local ecosystem". This theory was further supported by finding material evidence, an N Corp. Inquisitor seal.

Though approach of the situation was most delicate, the abrupt ambush by N Corp members had pushed me to engage F. Kromer, more commonly known as "The One Who Grips" in a state which resembled the distortion phenomenon. However, it had distinct difference to the distortion phenomenon, as the subject bore peccatulae form with some humanoid traits retained. Such form had not been part of the distortion phenomenon and as the consensus on distortions states that "peccatula are distinctly what becomes of individuals who had failed to enter the distorted state", I will refer to it as "chimera".

Due to past history with the individual prior to entering the chimera form (a brief period of obrumuk uqvrr dll wapw samxpsn), I have attempted to reason with them, as I imagined she was a distortion and thus retained some level of cognition. This was quickly proven as a falsehood, as the chimera attacked with little warning. Though I have successfully fended off the combined forces of a group of armored Inquisitors alongside the chimera, I was injured in the combat.

Following the necessary safety protocol issued following my demotion, I have isolated myself while in the vulnerable state. Thanks to the in-person request made by the @zwei-association-official, I was able to acquire the crucial symptom mitigation substance mix, as delivered by the @zweiassociationfixer.

PECCATULUM SWEEP ADDENDUM

In accordance with the fixer request protocols, I have taken the case as presented by the Zwei reports. Caged peccatula have appeareed around the City in numerous locations with major leads pointing to L Corp. as the source of this "trade".

Working with @zweiassociationfixer, few sites of capture and containment were identified and dismantled within an old L. Corp branch. N Corp. is suspected to have hand in this trade, as vast amount of activity had ceased after the N Corp. Inquisitors were dealt with. Ever since, the number of peccatula running around the L Corp. has stabilized. Whether that is a good thing is up for a debate.

The book from @dieci-association arrived safely. I extend my gratitude, as it contains the valuable information I needed.

Now to the problem at hand. According to this volume (which coincidently bears the logo of Limbus Company) there are two main situations where the peccatula may withdraw from locations they've once occupied:

They've sensed a predator in the area

It's breeding season

I've been present in the district for a good amount of time. I didn't notice any signs of a "breeding season" signs mentioned in the book. It also doesn't explain why the jackdaw family also moved away. If it was just the peccatula, that would probably lead to more animals starting to return and claim the area.

No, the breeding season is highly unlikely. That leaves an emergence of a predatorial force. Can't be me, not when I've been gone for longer spans of time before the peccatula started to hide away.

Meaning there is some foreign presence in the district, dangerous enough to scare both the peccatula and the birds.

Huh. Geryon just returned from his fly-around. And he brought me a gift.

No idea where he found it or what it is. Does anyone know?

Seiko here, may i please make a request for delivery? i unfortunately do not have the abblity to contract the devyat, so if you dont mind delivering me and my girlfriends estrogen ampules. i live in district D, in case you where wondering. - Shi After Hours.

Easy enough. However, for personal reasons I will not be taking the WARP train, so expect a day-or-so of delay, depending on the traffic situation.

Other than that, I will need to know the pickup and delivery locations. Feel free to disclose those details in the DMs.

Yo how’s the internet connection at L corp? How do you guys even still have internet by the way? No offense but yea.

You mean district 12, I´m guessing. It´s true, majority of locals don´t access the internet in the traditional sense.

Some have devices from relatives living in the neighboring districts, but majority of people with such connections already moved out. Those who remain had no choice but to adapt, so, to put it simply, the community itself became the local internet.

As for myself, both money and connections were involved to keep a device with an actual internet access. However, some things you can only find out if you ask the right person in the neighborhood. Usually for a price, but that is to be expected. Digital internet isn´t free either.

[peccatulum-b-gone]

so uh, even if I'm not by you or probably even your district... is there any reason to be wary with that thing you're looking for involving them?

I'd rather mot get into any more shit than I need to. shits been hitting the fan for too long and it'd suck to have more of that shit

To answer your burning question, no, I am not looking for the Bloodfiends. For all I know, as long as they don't cause any mayhem in the neighborhood, anyone or anything could technically pass through L corp, regardless of who or what they are - provided they don't get jumped by a peccatula or something.

That being said, if there was a Bloodfiend in the area, I would know. My range of knowing is limited to a smallish area, though, so any information that comes my way serves to better my capability to ensure that the neighborhood is safe from outside threats.

again, we are an ecosystem. as much as humanity thinks itself above animals we are but a particularly smart beast. no need to feel shame over it.

we do what we must to survive, correct? we hunt, we kill, we consume. as is natural. even if there is a voice claiming something more, she is to be dismissed. -the fixer muncher.

A voice, huh. A warm, soft voice telling you to do something. To become something.

I see now. Your body accepted the call, while your mind refused it. That dissonance is what caused your present state. Neither here, nor there, you are trapped in perpetual hunger, with an attached awareness that deludes itself to stave off the complete transformation.

I pity you, fixer muncher.
