G5 - A South Korean cruise liner - Clearly within it's territorial waters from what you can see.
H3 - North Korean Fisherman on his dinghy. Looks like he caught a big'un!
L3 - Hard to tell, but it appears to be a small rocky island with tortoises basking on it. How cute!
I2 - Russian trawler bringing in trade goods to our glorious paradise!
I4 - Japanese whalers! Curses!

The Chungwi turns to you. "We got these as-is from the Leninists. Our scientists reversed engineered them to make them better, but you don't get to train with those. They have a 900 kg payload, did you not pay attention to class that day?"

He chuckles to himself. "Normally we do fill them with concrete but I want a good firework show today. The people in the village want one too. So go on! Let's make a big kaboom!"

It can be if you claim it for North Korea? Outside world would consider it international waters though.

Well see that's even better. The Western pig-dogs can have their moment of panic as they see a missile on a ballistic trajectory towards their holdings but when it runs out of fuel halfway we can be all "Huhhuh I didn't even hit you but you still flinched :smug:"

Mesozoic

It's moving, Francis thought. Francis gets terribly bored most days. Eating grass can just get monotonous. Sure, a predator comes by once in a while but Francis always beats them off.

This, however, was exciting! Francis has lived near the coast for over 100 years and knew every step from his den to the ocean. A step count that has been slooooowly growing since then. At first Francis thought it was his gate, but he finally realized the truth: Part of the land was moving away from it's parent continent. A moving island, how novel! Most animals wouldn't live long enough to appreciate it, but tortoises live very long lives and can certainly appreciate the wonders of tectonic plates shifting!

Huh? Oh yes, Francis is a tortoise.


A tortoise that decided to eschew boredom, uproot his den and his mate and move to a slowly moving piece of land moving away from the continent into the ocean. They mate, have many kids, and the generations of tortoises after Francis forever hate him once they realized that, while moving on a small piece of land is nice, and the lack of predators is always a plus, being cooped up on a small island together for, well, forever gets kind of rote as well. Francis was many things, but his ability to foresee issues could have been better

Time passes. A lot of time passes



Willy wakes up to another boring day. Another boring day eating grass, another boring day getting rebuffed by the girls, blah blah blah. He only had fun 50 years ago when those wacky monkey with sticks came over and attacked each other! It was at least something different for once. Oh how he wished for that bloodshed once again!

Willy, in a fit of rage and boredom screams out to the sky "This..SUCKS! Can't we get something going on here today?! Can't I get just one...tiny...miniscule spark of excitement in my life?"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
You snap out of your daydream. Yup, that's the spot. They are probably also dirty capitalist tortoises anyway. You yell the coordinates to Dae Geon and the two of you work to make sure this rocket gets to it's destination.

Tortoise Isle


Willy stands exasperated on the beach. I didn't expect it to actually work! His tail wags with glee! Something exciting IS happening today!

There is a spot in the clear blue sky. Of importance is that it appears to be coming to Willy! Joy upon joys! Willy trudges back to the Den, where he happens upon his friends. Billy, lazily chomping on grass; Jilly, his crush; and Bob, who had to ruin the cute naming thing they all had going on.

"GUYSGUYSGUYSGUESSWHAT"
"H-hold up there Willy. What are you blabbering about?" Billy inquires.
"SOMETHING IS COMING. I FREAKING SCREAMED OUT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN AND IT WORKED"
"Pshaw. Nothing ever happens here, Willy. Now calm down before you have a coronary".

Willy takes a few deep breaths and explains what just occurred to him. Nobody obviously believed him at first, but the growing silver thing in the sky lended a sort of credence to the story. Even if they didn't think Willy willed it to appear, it certainly was there and they ought to do something about it.

Jilly first says "Maybe it will be a new friend! We should throw a party with hats! I like hats." Jilly became the inventor of hats on the island when a piece of a coconut shell accidentally landed on her head about 15 years ago. She always had the best fashion sense. Billy was apprehensive, worried it was a predator. Their kind hasn't had one in a long time, but that fear ingrains in you after several millenia and paranoia is much tougher to get rid of. Billy wishes that Willy would send it back. Bob just meekly wonders if it is food, and if it tastes good.

Willy just turns to them all and says "Fancy ideas, but we are but simple tortoises. Let us meet it simply on the beach with open arms and a smile. Truly the gods have blessed us". So Willy and friends trudge back to the beach to meet their new sky-friend.

Jilly asks "What shall we call it? Trilly?"
"Food?"
"Salvation!"
"Our doom" Billy gulps.

The silver object is coming close now...oh! Willy didn't expect it to be that big!















Oh.


















Oh, it's not slowing down.

Even from so far away, you still see the fire and smoke from the direct contact on the island! Well, not really an island anymore, amiright?! As tortoise shells cascade down into the sea, Dae Geon runs up to give you a bear hug, screaming "We did it Wolf!" Chungwi nods to you, and with careful prodding even the village people give a small cheer to you, and a larger one for Dear Leader's awesome missiles, of course! The four of you tidy up and head back to base. You only feel mildly sad for the tortoise colony you so completely and utterly destroyed, you jerk!

Time, as it always does, passes. Only a couple of weeks though, and it's time for you to keeping busy outside of more training and drills.

What do you wish to do?
A. Dae Geon want me to be his wingman tonight! Let's meet some ladies! I know there is a small risk to this.
B. The missile I shot off was cool, but I want to make my own. I start heavy reading of chemistry and rocketry books. I know this is very difficult to do.
C. Start schmoozing with the Officers, try and work up some brownie points to move from enlisted to officer! I know this is hard to do.
D. Ye Seung Nam offered to help you continue training in Tae kwon do. He apparently is very good at it!
E. Something else!

We must focus entirely on composing a song about how those turtles represented decadent American Imperialism and the rocket was the vengeance of the Korean people inspired by the Great Juche Idea, the Cholima doctrine, and held high by the Banner of Songun to defeat them. Only through our careful praises of Kim Il-Sung can we achieve true freedom for all world progressives.

Then we shall sing it and any girl that is enthused with the Love of Dear Leader will be a true keeper as she will not only be loyal to us but most importantly to the Workers' Party of Korea.
