Keeper Journey
4th Log: Cairo Reclamation
Shots were aimed at the humanoid crab-like figures inside the black mist, a piercing shriek
was heard from faceless statues composed of three merged giant aliens.
Membranous organisms similar to Devil fish took the night sky, swarming and smashing
against the steel phoenixes. Large Quadruped humanoid corpses with a big shell on their
backs smashed some soldiers line of defense, spreading worms that detonated on contact.
The pyramids of Ginza at long last received a visit from their human creators, the sand and
those invaders weren’t enough to bury this ancient wonder. A shame this retribution would be
out of sight of the great sphinx nearby. However the tide turned when from the ground emerged
a gigantic monstrosity resembling a Hermit Crab, the Scylla presence confirmed
the Cairo had become a Pandoran Citadel. All troops fell back to an old panoramic point.
Upon reaching the intersection between Al-Marioteya and Saft El Laban, the group of 12 girls
riding sandboards divided themselves in groups of six, each taking a different route.
Freesia still brooded about being given the task of dealing with the nearby Chosen, when
Edelweiss was far more capable but Brown and Kim insisted on securing the Harvest Eluvian.
On the ghost streets a single symbol could be seen on almost all the remaining buildings, a
clear indication of the ‘Cult of Sirius’ preaching. Taking the El Tahrir road they soon reached
Gezira Island, they had to avoid the patrolling flying golden cyborgs to enter the Cairo Tower.
Lucky for them, the new owner of the tower preserved the structure as best as it could.
The Prophet: “Rak'Tahar you were task with dealing with all of those annoying humans.”
The Charon: “My dear Hator Con'Ra don’t be hasty, our ‘Angel’ and her troops are on their
way. ADVENT is always eager to get rid of any XCOM vestiges.”
Per'kele: “Ah, there you are. Hush your bickering, OUR guests had arrived!
Hator give them a warm welcome they deserve and make sure they receive my gift.”
The four holographic display were turned down, leaving the Verdandi facing off against the
Prophet and her two Archon royal guards. The alien cyborgs attempted to grasp the maidens,
leaving them open to a nimble counter kick from the crouched down girls. Connecting more
kicks, two girls broke the 16th floor windows with their opponents backs, using their whips to
reach the roof and continue the fight from above.
The alien scepter continued to launch psionic projectiles while floating in the air, its master
handled hand to kick combat matching the tempo of 4 different maidens at once. A green glint
could be seen on the other side of the Nile river. Like a miracle, the area surrounding the
Mosque of Amr started to grown green grass. Consuming any pandoran proliferation on the
environment, an Oak ash tree stood tall over the mosque with White Apples on its branches.
After witnessing those events, the chosen took her staff and activated a nearby mechanism.
The sound of an old war alarm was heard, suddenly the space around them started to distort.
