SO…ideas.
Okay, in the cbox we mentioned Mimzy being taken by the Mafia and the Mafia possibly wanting the Republic lands for some reason. So I was brainstorming and came up with the following scenario:
Mimzy gets spooked by the fire and takes off through the plains to try to get away and find her family. She’s scared and panicked and loses her way. And on her mad trek she discovers something. A flower/plant/tree something that is valuable and sought after. I’d go with flower since Mimz has a fondness of them so it would make sense that she remembers it even in this stressful time. She doesn’t know what it is and just kind of keeps going.
Anywho she gets away from the fire and I guess stumbles into Mafia lands or runs into a Mafia spy or something. That’s a detail I’m not super clear on at this juncture. But they take her prisoner for whatever reason, who knows they might know she’s the daughter of the current leader and might want to see if they can use that for their advantage. Mimzy being young and impulsive and naïve probably doesn’t really get what all is going on and offhandedly mentions what she saw. Someone else recognizes her description and understands how valuable that is. Maybe she just runs into someone and mentions it and they take her to Sylvester after that.
So they bring in Gotham to try to find out where the stupid thing is, since Mimzy says she doesn’t remember. The trick is that she is telling the truth and Gotham can’t access memories that don’t exist. He knows that she did see the thing as she remembers that part, but has no clue where it was. Other than it being somewhere in the plains.
So they decide they need to keep her for leverage and that she might still be able to lead them there (if later something were to jog her memory about it, even Gothy isn’t sure how it all works). And to keep her from being a major pain the whole time they have Gotham do some work on her so that she wants to help them and doesn’t try to get away.
In the meantime Keely and the Republic may not even have control over the plains anymore after they more or less abandon them. Maybe they gave the lands to and combined packs with someone, maybe they offered the lands for protection, maybe they got taken over. Anywho, now Keely has to try to figure out how to get control of the lands back to give to the Mafia so that she can get mimzy back.
That’s the basis of what I was thinking anyway. More than open to suggestions or modifications to the idea (or scrapping it all together if no one else likes it >.< ). Of course, part of it is kinda dependent on brining in some plants (and we were just discussing the possibility of adding the plant contest winners to the site, so this would be good timing) and it would probably be a staff decision to decide what that would be.
Thoughts?
