[Video - Evening] Lights amongst the dark
[The camera clicks on, and two very different Primes appear. Solus Prime is kneeling down, examining what appears to be a large, metal container as she speaks with Liege, who watches on. A moment goes by before she gives the comm, held in unmoving acolyte hands, a glance.]
-Prima's Touch was a clever addition. It will be interesting to see if his boon will help them survive the wilds more readily- Ah, very good.
[She stands, dusting off her hands with the faintest of pleased smirks.]
In the interests of continuing our work, we have elected to make this next experimental addition for improving Cybertron a bit more...visible.
[She turns a bit somber, optics softening.]
It also happens that it has been an entire solar cycle since you all have started arriving here once more. Roughly. Perhaps that is not a cause for celebration for many of you, but it is still a significant occasion to be honored.
[She gestures to her brother, who rises the lid so she can reach into the container and pulls out...what seems to be a handful of light. In actuality, it is what appears to be little glowing robobugs. They skitter across her plating, varied in design quirks but largely resembling a cross between rotor-laden dragonflies and moths with delicate metallic wiring.]
[Liege reaches out, picking one up in-between his claws and examining it closely--it might be obvious to all who were present for it that these definitely have a relationship to Jetfire's glowbugs.]
It would be best if you left them alone to do their job. They are perfectly harmless. However, they are designed to seek out raw resources and other sources of energy, so following their glow could be quite...lucrative. Consider it something of a treasure hunt, if you will.
Among a plethora of other functions. They should also be able to give us more information about the boundaries and composition of the badlands, once they depart the Haven. Until then...perhaps some enjoyment can be found in their display.
[Solus shrugs faintly, before lifting the lid holding back the swarm and vanishes in the midst of the glowing rush of tiny wings.]
...
[For those not watching the communicators or happen to be outside...from the top of Prima's glowing tower, a different sort of light slowly emerges, and seems to balloon out. The cloud gets larger and larger, like glowing smoke, before breaking up and fanning out in all directions and lighting up the sky.
For the next week, the swarm of Pixels will flock around the Haven, highlighting various, previously unknown energon pools, crystals, and even some nice finds in the junkyard. Solus Prime will be releasing a new batch each night, adding to the swarm until they eventually depart, en mass, for parts unknown.]
[Note: Those who reply to this message with an in-character action of following the pixels will be rewarded with a small item! Be creative in specifying where and how, and see what treasure awaits...]

Too bad that didn't seem like it was going to happen anytime soon.
She had started to explore Liege's quadrant more, as of late, curious about it because, in a way, it reminded her of the North. Which wasn't necessarily all good but it wasn't all bad either. And this version was..different. In an interesting way. She and Pan had made their way into the empty beginnings of a city, Lyra completely unafraid even as her daemon cowered on her shoulder in the form of a small bird, feathers ruffled as he chirped softly every now and then.
It's Pan that notices the odd lights first and panic floods him as he immediately takes to the air, flittering about Lyra's head quickly.]
Lyra, Lyra! It's dust! There's dust here!
Wot--Pan come her--
[Just as she caught her Daemon and clutched him close, she frowned, peering up at the sky.]
...That ain't dust, Pan.

The vast, remaining trail of pixels continued on, heading straight into a hilly, rocky area that may involve an unpleasant climb. Will Lyra and Pan follow?]
no subject
Lyra are sure that's safe?
Pan, darling, I don't think they want to hurt us.
[As she said it, her gaze lifted to follow the others that had created a trail, that wonder now turning into all out curiosity as she took a few steps forward.]
They want us to follow.
..So we are, aren't we?
[Glancing down at her daemon, Lyra grinned and shifted him up onto her shoulder, the feline stretching across them both and holding on as his human started to follow the trail.]
no subject
The rest, meanwhile, head up and up. The climb is a little rough, but not outside human norms; in fact, it seems like this was a human trail at one point. A long-dried patch of mud even holds a partial human footprint, forgotten leather shoes crumbling away not far up the path from it.
The trail ends at a little cave, the pixels lighting the way inside. Will Lyra and Pan follow?]
no subject
Lyra, on the other hand, is fascinated by them and isn't about to give up despite a rough climb, slowly but surely making her way up. When she finally gets to where they're leading her, panting softly with her hands on her hips, the little girl debates for half a second before heading into the cave.
It's just too tempting and she's already come this far after all.]
