Spoiler alert, the child's not actually a mortal.
[Kid has Perception + Awareness 5, with two extra dice from an excellency.]
Tomato tomato. I'm still likely going to stab the little turd if he gives me sufficient reason to believe he is with the solars or lunars or a betrayer of the realm.Wrong there as well, buddy.
I am hoping these guys give us a compelling reason to risk life and limb. Looking back on the character's experience in this city, this has been a rather trifling vacation so far.
Assuming that even the mortals vs mortals battle is one where we're outnumbered (incredibly likely given the meta of Solar War), perhaps I should try and declare a fact that can give us a fallback... what to ask for is the real question...
For now, I could declare a location along a trade route or an Exalt present at the party. One more Dragon-Blooded could certainly help but it'd be terribly difficult to make that one count enough to turn the tide. It'd have to be a badass sorcerer/summoner known to walk with an invisible army at his beck and call to level this out. Either that or a battle-hardened monk or warrior.
If it's a place then... what? An island or mountain fortress manse? Any place that's declared is likely to be occupied by someone we have to convince or a hell and a half's worth of unpleasant critters... Hm... Any suggestions?
Ya know... we could really use that hero that was spoken of earlier in the game right now. Sending someone out and they bring back a Hero like Cathak Amaya with a full wyld hunt to tear into the flanks of the orcs. Or anathema, I should say. (But whats the difference. Amiright?)... There are plenty of party-goers that could fill the role to spend the five days rallying backup...
Fel has Unslakeable Thirst of the Devil Maw. Maybe there will come a point we can combine the two battlegroup annihilation spells for unblockable/undogeable epic damage?Well, I do happen to know Death of Obsidian Butterflies, and that does some nice damage against battle groups. But even with that under my belt, I can't see Larissa being able to count on casting it multiple times without having one of the Anathema being able to use countermagic on it. We have to assume that at least one of them have sorcery.
What would be a way we could combine Maw and Raptor? I could probably do some pretty cool stuff if I was allowed to use it as more than just sucking up moisture.One thing that I can do that might help is that Larissa has Wings of the Raptor, so I can fly out and do some recon from the air, and then hit the bad guys with my spell. Combining that with the Devil Maw one would make for a nice stunt to do some good damage.
And if they have a Essence 3 Solar or Lunar spellcaster, we are totally boned.

If I am remembering correctly, I think the Solar's band is approaching from the northeast?
Would it be allowed for Manato to declare that their ultimate goal is a mountain just off a major trade route to the west? Notably, an Orichalcum mine. One that is fortified with a Realm garrison that cannot be willfully recalled by a single great house. This raises the stakes, gives an entrenched position, and some heavily armed, more loyal allies to fight beside.
Granted, that change impacts the story to a very large degree. I'd understand if you'd prefer we didn't. I figure, given this scenario, it could settle in among what's established nicely for a motive as well as blend with the geography naturally.
We could get them more interested if we evacuate the city and Satori to the mountain. Using her like very sexy bait.You can have the Orichalcum mine, and the independent Realm garrison there, but you can't have the Solars and their army be more interested in taking it than they are in deposing Satori.
