THIS MISSION CYCLE ENDS FOUR WEEKS FROM THE START OF YOUR THREAD. YOU MAY NOT MAKE NEW THREADS AFTER MAY 8TH.

TIMELINE: JAN-APRIL

Neutral missions can no longer be doubled-up. If doubled up for whatever reason, the person completing it twice will receive no MP.

After November 19th, several things come into play.
[break][break]
Sir Atkins-Folley, acting mayor of Delphi, has temporarily suspended the Aegis Accords, allowing Cerberus to enact emergency protocol in response to the mass movement of cursed familiars into the wilderness. Cerberus promises to disclose more information to the public in a press conference sometime in the next couple of weeks. The Jairwood Swamp has been officially declared a no-go-zone, and all four major cities have banned expeditions into it that are not strictly necessarily. Importantly, cursed witches are not permitted to leave walled cities.
[break][break]
Conversely, Hydra issues a notice to their own witches, to covertly rescue cursed familiars out in the Jairwood Swamp, explaining to them the location of the temporary base that is built out in the wilderness.
[break][break]
Cursed witches from the camp are required to retain their collars—removing it can only done by authorized Cerberus personnel.
[break][break]
The witches at Trishula Camp come back battered but alive, having just been through the worst time of their lives. But they are honored and even rewarded for their bravery, even if it is done mostly without fanfare or press.
[break][break]
But for you? The average witch? You have no choice but to go about your day, to adapt to this new normal. Everyone begins to pretend that everything is normal. You read the Oracle, anxious but otherwise safe. Things seemed to have settled down, for now...
[break][break]
IMPORTANT!! PLEASE READ: This neutral mission can be any thread made in response to one of the planned FOUR Delphi Oracle releases. The "response" can look like anything, but should include your character's reactions to the various ongoing changes in Delphi.
The last day to start a new mission is ONE WEEK FROM THE PUBLICATION OF THE LAST (FOURTH) ORACLE. You have FOUR WEEKS FROM START OF YOUR THREAD to complete each one "on time". You can only do this mission once. With this set up, you will be able to view all Oracles before deciding, or make your pick earlier if something speaks to you.
