Our reporter Allen Diaden sent this report from the streets of Borealis:
“It seems that the protestors are becoming more and more organised as the day progresses. I have heard rumours that there may be even larger scale protests planned for the weekend and we have even spotted some signs of anti Omni-Tek propaganda being distributed on the streets of the city.
The security situation is certainly tense; several times I had to find cover as sporadic exchanges of gunfire broke out between protestors and Unicorn forces. I even saw some clan members attempting to hold the whom-pah station for a length of time.
Neutral citizens appear worried that the conflict will tear apart this once peaceful town where Omni-Tek and Clan mingled with them and conducted business only a few short days ago. So far the Unicorn Company has not aggressively deployed their forces and the Juggernaut that has been stationed in the city has yet to be called into action.
The protests have certainly been constant though, and those I spoke to expressed concern as to how the situation would develop. Omni-Tek is not known for backing down and some fear that the protests may trigger further troop deployments whilst some have faith in their peaceful protests.
One thing remains certain, there doesn’t seem like there is a peaceful solution on the horizon right now. This is Allen Diaden on the streets of Borealis signing off.”
