For those who do not know, several Outsiders have vanished into rifts. The first was Ereshkigal, during the kaiju battle in Egypt. As far as I know, no contact has been established.

Since then, three other Outsiders have also vanished: Ratio, Godzilla, Tsurumaru. I have been investigating but coming up mostly short.

There were no witnesses for Ratio's disappearance, but Nyuu and Hayakawa have confirmed that a rift opened and took both Godzilla and Tsurumaru. Only they were taken, despite not being alone at the time.

I may have a clue as to who is next.

I do not wish to cause panic or alarm, and I am not sure what can be done to prevent anyone else from being taken. I will bring these findings to LILITH as well.

During the mission in Egypt, we were inserted into the dreams and memories of other Outsiders. I saw one of Ereshkigal's. In this memory, she was speaking with several other Outsiders. Seven to be exact. Among them were Ratio, Godzilla, and Tsurumaru.

The other four were Yzak, Hiyori, Kabru, and Silco.

Kabru is already gone, though his name is gone from the network, a glitch. Those taken by the rifts are still listed, but unable to be contacted.

I would encourage those others in then memory to not be alone until this is solved.

If you have any other information you would like to document in this post, please do. We need to share what we can in order to get to the bottom of this. I pray you all stay safe.

[OOC: Raidou's theory on this player plot might be shot very quickly, but he doesn't know that. Go wild with the speculation in the meanwhile!]

Fucking wonderful.

[the_fourteenth]

Sorry, but I'm at least glad I could get a warning out before something happened. Please be safe.

[coordination]

I do wonder how plausible that is, considering. But being safe is something I always endeavor to be.

[the_fourteenth]

It's my only theory for now. Dante theorizes that it might be related to those who have gotten the heaviest hits on the kaiju. You are also among that group, yes? As am I, though it was not recent.

[coordination]

Yeah, I'm also in that group.

Lucky me, being two for two.

Creator's sake. If you get yourself captured again I'm never letting you live it down.

You and Elsman be careful.

[coordination]

I'm not LOOKING to have it happen, you know! Of course I'm going to do my best to ensure that doesn't happen!

I've been working on things since Ereshkigal went missing. So if we figure out what's going on as quickly as possible, we can put a stop to it before any of these theories have a chance to be proven right.

[harboredfeelings]

The handcuff thing might not be a bad idea to help with that.

Have you made any actual progress or are we still swinging in the dark on this?

[coordination]

All that's going to do is ensure both of us go in if something appears!

And not yet. Still no sign from her on the other side. As for the kaiju part fortification, we're still waiting for enough data to make a proper judgment.

[harboredfeelings]

Or you might be able to save each other's hides from going in. Either way, it's a little romantic don't you think?

Keep me up to date on the fortification efforts. If we get it working our best course of action might be inserting a small strike team inside a rift proved transport.

[coordination]

All of this is the opposite of romantic! I've got enough dramatics in my life as it is!

And I will. I think at the current rate we're going, we won't get to that point unfortunately. But that doesn't mean it's not a worthy endeavor.

[harboredfeelings]

Risking life and limb for the person you love seems pretty romantic to me? But to each their own.

[ Hah. Limb. ]

Plan B then, let's just start shoving people through and see what happens. Most of Everlight will volunteer out the gate, I'm sure.
