The salt spray of Sandy Shores was supposed to smell like destiny. Instead, it just smelled like rotting Wahesh and impending rage. For two weeks, Decca had been sitting on a lawn chair on the beaches of Sandy Shores at Planet Toulan, her eyes glued to the shimmering horizon where the Burj al-Hawa tower pierced the sky. She had been given a "highly critical, top-secret operational directive" by an anonymous handler: Cast your line, blend in as a local angler, and monitor the prison tower. One of the Three Dark Mages is plotting an escape, and your fishing line is the tripwire.
She had taken the job seriously. She took her Cultists on a field trip and was able to get her hands on some premium bait. She tracked the wind vectors. She didn't blink for the first forty-eight hours, but on day fourteen, as she stared down at her hook for the thousandth time, a cold, sickening realization washed over her faster than a Toulan tidal wave (which doesn't exist). There were no fish.
Not just "they aren't biting" no fish. Planet Toulan didn't even have active fishing mechanics yet. It was just bait fishing. You throw the line, you lose the bait, you get nothing. It was a localized, digital black hole for time and PED.
Decca dropped her fishing rod into the sand. Her jaw tightened as the pieces started clicking together with agonizing clarity. The "critical mission" wasn't a mission at all. It was a glorified babysitting tactic. The community had enjoyed a suspiciously peaceful, quiet couple of weeks during the Monria event earlier in the month ... free from her usual brand of chaotic interference and unsolicited tactical extractions. They had duped her. They had marooned her on a beach with a bucket of nothing, just to keep her sidetracked. She was livid.
The reprieve is officially over.
Warning to the Community:
Do not expect the status quo at the next Toulan event weekend ... Decca is once again plotting, and we know what that means ... nothing will be as it's supposed to be, and that puts everyone in danger ... full stop. No one is safe.
Whether you are actively cycling, or just trying to turn in your daily missions, you are in the target zone. The community needs to rise to the occasion, so gear up and stock up, because Decca is about to turn Guardian Village into a war zone, and she doesn't care who gets caught in the crossfire.
Question is ... Are you going to focus on your Toulan Citizenship progress, or are you preparing a contingency plan for when the beach-dwelling menace inevitably unleashes her chaos?

WARNING
We warned you before to come fully prepared because the behavior of these unique 22 modified creatures is unpredictable. Many learned with the launch of this monthly event in Dec 2020, that anyone stepping into the large aggro range of these mobs will trigger a full-on charge of all of the mobs at once, and it's not just one group of them. There are waves that include boss mobs, and then all 7 of the boss mobs in a row, one more deadly than the one before. When this initial onslaught of chaos concludes, the full scale invasion across various locations on Toulan begins for the remainder of the weekend.
For full and complete details about this monthly event, there is an article in the Dec 2020 Virtualsense Quarterly magazine that breaks everything down.
REMINDER
- The Toulan Citizenship Mission is tied into the Toulan Monthly Event only.
- You need a NawaCore MK3 to be able to take the mission from NPC Haneen at the Citadel in the Information Booth.
- Here is a link to Nawa/NawaCore information.
- Only event mobs (including the mobs at the beginning wave activity at Guardian Village) will count toward points and progressing the mission.
- Event mobs are all shared loot mobs and your contribution will give points, you don't have to have the kill shot.
- You will not receive points from event mobs while in a team.
- After completing the Toulan Citizenship Mission you will receive the Toulan Born outfit, the free space travel benefit on the Yamato and ---
- --- eligible to do all current and future Toulan Born missions and Queen Nara's continued Citizenship missions taken from the Citizens Representative
- --- the Citizens Representative NPC is located just inside of the Guardian Village East Gate on the right
(these guys, and the other wave levels all charge at once when the first player breaches their aggro range, which is quite large)
AS ALWAYS -- " THANK YOU FOR YOUR PARTICIPATION "
