```<Pose Tracker> Nena Trinity has posed.```

       The AEU's main base in Bavaria is one of the larger Federation bloc
bases in the region. It serves as a distribution point for other nearby bases
and a layover for long distance travel around the globe. As such, it is an
important asset not only for the AEU but other Federation blocs who need to
use it to move around their forces and supplies. So whether you're stationed
in the area and out on patrol, or just passing through to somewhere else,
you'll likely find yourself comming the base. Business as usual.

       But then communication to the base suddenly cuts out. This is not
necessarily that unusual, in this world of difficult ranged communications.
Perhaps there was a sudden spike of interference between you and the base.

       However, things take a sudden turn for the concerning as something
strange happens to the sky. Streams of crimson light stretch out above,
particles of equally red light beginning to fall across the entire surrounding
area like snow.

       At the same time, communications to anywhere else go dead, even tight
beams. Sensor readings of the surroundings drop in range to less than a
kilometer, making visual cameras and plain old eyesight the only means of
knowing what's out there.

       Whatever is happening though, it seems that the source is the base
itself, as that is where this ominous light likely causing all this is
streaming from.

       As you close in on the base, the situation becomes more dire as smoke
can be seen rising into the sky. And not small amounts of it. Clearing the
final visual barrier, the base comes into view.

       It's on fire.

       Not all of it, but a significant portion of the base facilities are in
ruins, fires spreading unchecked. The remains of numerous mobile weapons
litter the ground, the base's defenders. Occasionally a couple more will pop
up, finally clearing their hangars, only for streaks of red light to past
through them, burning holes into them and causing them to explode.

       And the source of all of this floats in the air above the base. Crimson
pouring out of numerous vents across its red frame like wings of light. Its
distinctive engine unleashing the unique particles that have become the
subject of concern in recent months. A Celestial Being Gundam.

       In its cockpit, the pilot giggles.
