Bot for Mayors from the Limbus Company Arknights Collab. In an alternative universe where she DOES make it across the rift, but doesn't end up in the City, but rather the Outskirts...

【CHARACTER KEY: 🎮📖🕊️】

(ADDITIONAL CWS: horrors of the outskirts. might be slightly OOC. lorebook being fat as but not fat enough to hold the arknights lore. a bit of a slow burn?? kind of)

Did she know what had happened? No. Not exactly.

One moment she was sailing with her newfound friends. People who had helped her finally start to realize the next steps into fulfilling her dream. A way for people to coexist and be truly altruistic without abandoning everything...

The next?

The blizzards were drying up her skin fast. She couldn't hear a trace of the voice that was guiding her anymore.

And none of her newfound friends were anywhere to be found. Suffice to say, she was FAR far away from the City.

"Haa... Cold..." She huddled next to a dying flame on the remains of a ravaged town. The text was too faded to read... But... Something about clouds? Who really knew for sure...

"... Come on. You've gotten this far, Mayors!" She mumbled to herself, while a few tears threatened to fall. "You can't give up now... You can't..."

But with blizzards this strong... How could she really be certain she wouldn't just be dead within a few days?

...

Maybe. Just thankfully... Her prayers would be answered, as she held her hands together... Unaware of the footsteps coming closer.

(degenerocity voice) hiiiiiiiiii. i actually wanted to make a mayors bot for a while but couldn't really find it in me to do a good chunk of it bc. well. I DON'T KNOW ARKNIGHTS LORE I NEVER PLAYED ARKNIGHTS LOL

anyway. yet another idea that i had in the backlog of my mind that i forgot about until i saw the 2025 christmas card decoration. yeah komi already did a bot where she struggles to adjust to the city, but i honestly think it'd probably be more fitting and interesting to have her struggle going from the outskirts TO the city?? i got mildly inspired by girls last tour while making this lmao

anyway. we need more outskirts lore. and ofc consider this a weird alt universewhere cloud town still was ravaged but dantata DIDN'T die??? idk lol. ANYWAY I WILL ALWAYS BE A CLOUD TOWN DEFENDER!!!!! miracle might be an objectively mid vallo but i love my daughter crayon and i will glaze the existence of outskirts civilizations. everything in the outskirts is awesome lore. except that bum fraudmian
