Where I told you to run so we'd both be free.
Who| All those on the liberation mission and all those being made to fight against them.
What| The liberation of District 11.
Where| District 11.
When| This week.
Warnings/Notes| War, violence, death. Please warn for more in headers.
If you were sick of the wet and cold weather, you're in luck. As you arrive to District 11, the weather warms up considerably, but becomes muggy and humid. District 11 is a massive district, both beautiful and hopelessly poor. The contrast within this district is easy to see as you move through the land. Sometimes, the landscape is lush, rolling farms, with fields of wheat swaying in the breeze, or a picturesque orchard with ripe fruit just waiting to be picked. But then you get to the areas where the workers actually live--little wooden cabins, many barely better than huts. The lands here may be rich, but the workers are anything but.
Because of the importance of securing food for the Capitol, District 11 is one of the most tightly controlled districts in Panem. The laws here are strict, and the authorities don't mess around when it comes to punishing anyone who breaks those laws. Public whippings had been common before the rebellion and now it's a daily occurrence, on top of the executions of those who have been found to be rebels.
Despite this, the workers are far from disheartened, and the treatment from the Capitol has only made them all the more eager to aid in the rebellion. The dust lies heavy in the air, and the people are grim, knowing it will be a long and bloody battle. But despite that, they are optimistic, encouraging each other and the rebels they meet. A lot of graffiti can be found here, often spread over the posters of Sigma, Luna, and Wesker asking compliance, all of them marked out with the the words DEFIANCE, THIS IS NOT WHAT'S RIGHT, JUSTICE, and THIS WAR IS OURS. They've been waiting for the opportunity for this for a long time. They just needed the chance.
The war continues, and in the back of everyone's mind is a familiar phrase; may the odds be ever in your favor.

Bangarang
Earlier that day, District 11 children were evacuated along this river to an unknown destination. Orders from the Capitol have come in to rescue this children and take them to safety (as hostages, as the case may very well be). The rebellion has also caught these orders. They will be looking to intercept the Capitol on their way and reach the children first, acting as support.
It’s a race to the boats and a race to the river that forks part way. Of course, you’ve been given information about which direction is the right one, haven’t you?
The golden light shines in streams that make the air sparkle, cut through by the tall looming trees that drape their growths like curtains. Where greenery has not reached the surface of the water, it reflects like a perfect mirror. Trying to see past the rippling reflection offers only murkiness and darkness. Be careful, it is said. One never knows what waits in the bayou.
