Horrible Island Video Evidence
Type: Text + Video
Sender ID: telepathicignorance (Chris)
To: Public
Subject: Recordings from raid on the evil crystal and bone Island
Warnings: Uh, violence, gore, death, a literal island built out of the bodies of poached whales and the victims of crystalization, human and animal cruelty, rich people being extremely evil?
(Chris isn't even bothering to go anon with this.)
Given that higher ups in both Armadas seem to be scrambling to hide this knowledge and prevent us from working together to stop it, I figured it might be best to set the record straight and show this to the public.
If you don't already realize, there's gonna be a lot of dead people and bits of dead stuff in these, because these guys literally made an island out of everything they killed. And I'm not using literally in that way people do when they actually mean figuratively. I mean actually literally.
(The sea has drawn back, and the island sits on the bottom, a mass of rock and crystal and whale bone and beautiful buildings now struggling not to crack apart without the water supporting them. They make sure to get a good wide shot of the island sitting there among all the shit that it's dumped to the bottom of the sea, a mass grave of the bones and personal possessions of victims now revealed to the open air. The luxury yachts that sat at the docks are now resting broken among this display, and another wide pan shot shows the Corsair and Paladin ships leading the charge together.
They make sure to get a lot of shots of the previously underwater graveyard as they head through it, with particular emphasis on a short recording showing a literal mound of skulls, though there will be quick shots of several objects that probably used to belong to victims too. There are people other than them working on gathering remains and taking them back for identification and proper burial, but there's too much to be able to get all of it in the time they have.
Hiding among the bones and cloaking the shit out of themself allows Chris to get good shots of the shark mercenaries that come out to attack everyone, and they make sure to get lots of shots of lots of different ones. They aren't sure if this is like, a specific family of shark mercenaries, or the people of the island specifically hired shark mercenaries for the aesthetic, or if like, shark-people as a species are just prone to ending up in roles like this because of societal pressures or their own natural tendencies, but there sure are a lot of them!
And then they get inside and, well. The first videos and pictures will be of the culprits. High ranking Paladins and Corsairs frantically trying to flee, their fancy outfits drenched with the Ambergris wine they were drinking before being so rudely interrupted. Many will be killed and Chris shows zero respect for the dying or the corpses, making sure to get real good shots of their faces for identification as they lie there on blood soaked tile and carpet, even standing there for a good half a minute filming one particularly wealthy looking cat man as he chokes on his own blood. They remain silent, and don't make any tasteless Aristocat puns. They also don't help him, don't even move his head so the blood will spill out of his mouth instead of collecting in it and killing him.
But worse than that are the art displays of the crystalized corpses of victims. Chris will make sure to pause extra long on the very worst ones as they tour this house of horrors. People of all ages and sizes somehow crystalized in the middle of agonized screams. Children huddled in the fetal position or bent over crying. An entire wall of mounted crystalized heads, their eyes staring down accusingly. Sconces made of gilded whale bone... and some made with crystalized hands holding the light source. Every part of this island and the structures built on it a glorification of death and suffering.
Eventually, they get to the entrance of the dungeons, and the recording ends.)
I don't think the living victims necessarily want to be on public display and I was more focused on rescuing people, so I'm not gonna post anything from the dungeons. I've got some pictures of rescued animals from immediately after everything, though.
(A squirrel, still alive despite most of its head being encased in crystal.
A dog with crystalized legs fused to a display plate, its still very much alive and uncrystalized head baring its teeth in a snarl at the people trying to help it.
Some kind of weasel thing with crystals growing in spikes along its back. It's also got some on its paws and it's trying to gnaw them off but only succeeding in injuring itself.
...And a lot more of the same.)
