Departure
You have arrived in the westernmost port of the Empire. Some of the supplies you have brought with you here from your home and the rest are given to you by the Empire on arrival. Those that arrived by ship found their crew rosters being scrutinised by the Imperial soldiers marching left and right checking for names, counting heads and giving a swift look through your hold. Those that came by foot found themselves being searched as they crossed city lines and counted once more. You eventually heard word that the empire had gotten wind of a plot to infiltrate and otherwise undermind imperial authority. Some of you were used to this, life on the edges of the empire was often just like this as a multitude of nations waged a hidden war on the empire, hoping to secure their freedom while avoiding its wrath. Despite this, the empire sees no reason to stop anyone, including a small and suspicious group marching through protecting two crates in a very defensive manner. Every time they were stopped by soldiers they had immaculate papers, almost too immaculate, but no one was willing to question them for fear of retribution. This normally quiet town was suddenly a hotbed of activity as all the various factions that were to take part in this journey arrived to fill the small town and eat them out of house and home. Some factions camped just outside city limits and others on their ships. In a few days, you would depart and suddenly a large naval ship arrives and the regional governor, accompanied by the Second Vice-Admiral of the Matrizian Navy steps off. Many of you are present to see this and some of you are told by members of your faction completing business in town or asking around but regardless all of you are approached by a low ranking naval officer flanked by two soldiers and each invited to come to an address in town, that happens to be the local tailors which has been commandeered by the governor and admiral, so he may meet with you and get 'the measure of you each so you may be considered for an imperial post in the new world'
Much as beck did in his magnanimous RP which is my inspiration, this RP will start a short time before you depart. Partially this is an opportunity to meet each other and get to know one another, as it was in Becks case, to respond to a couple of situations before we leave, as beck also did, but also so I can achieve a few interactions I need to do with the Empire before you leave. You are leaving in four days and soldiers are everywhere.
