Maintaining the Agenda is our top priority
That would probably make Molly sound childish. Not to mention we got lucky with counterspell rolls and the first Outsider was killed by Mab. So they aren't exactly overated for us either, even it doesn't look like it from the Outside looking in.

Maybe we should use MHM to stack up all the bodies in the shape of a throne? To make a very bunt metaphor.

Yet another Arc down. I get a kick out of being able to diplomatically handle the lady at church being more of an accomplishment than changing Harry's mind on cyber-demons, learning about Gard's history, or making peaceful contact with the Dragon Nest's guardian.
Not every vote went how I would have voted, but I'm still overall liking how we're playing it so far as I catch up.

Initially it read like you were trying to give more pomp to his death yeah.
Honestly it's bad as both; it's taking itself so seriously that it's actually wrapping back around to taking something out of the moment.
Claiming it's dead is good enough, giving it a name is potentially more intimidating, this just isn't.

Ask @DragonParadox after we have our Hell can we use Calling the Calibration Gate to open a gate for him? Or when we go to him in the manner described by the charm, could we use this sorcery to open a gate from him back to the human world?
Why would we want to do that if we even could?
I'm pretty sure we can't because the charm was modified to be soul murder instead of imprisonment, and even if it wasn't he'd be in the thousand hells instead of our currently nonexistent one, but seriously Outsiders are bad news.

I vaguely remember DP or someone else saying that he would be in NeverNever along with the other realms, (A Thousand Hells, Fairie etc) so our world could be invaded from there or our servants could go there.
With the Gate we could summon attack parties or send more people to hide inside if we needed to. It's my suggestion on how to get our future soldiers to us the easiest way.
The fairies and others can deploy their soldiers from the NeverNever to the human world or vice versa easily and we can't unless there is a future change.
He being who? Because in this context I thought you were talking about the walker we just killed and not foot soldier demons with that first post.
As to the other thing, yes and no:
My read is that it's more like a new shed in reality's backyard than a new room in the house in some ways.

He as our Hell
"I vaguely remember DP or someone else saying that our Hell would be in NeverNever along with the other realms, (A Thousand Hells, Fairie etc) so our world could be invaded from there or our servants could go there."
Hmm...I think I agree with you on that. Thanks for explaining.
Organizing an expedition and excavating more infernal shards is on my to-do list. People seem hesitant, however.

Those with senses to know already know. They are the ones that truly matter.
Our kingdom is in our anima / soul, and is not part of NeverNever (so, for example, eating food there doesn't create a risk of your body turning into ectoplasm and being unable to function in reality for a prolonged period of time). It might be accessible from NeverNever, however.
As to the Walker, it's gone. Completely destroyed. Murder is Meat has been refluffed as a spirit killer.

The Elder Whamps know, word will spread, the other Walkers are gonna know no matter what we do, unless we pull off the classic Stealthy Infernal 'Subtle Like Nuclear Holocaust' technique and massacre everybody in the room. Good ol' nobody can know what you did if everybody who knows is dead!

Finding other Exalted is a no brainier because if Exalted exist then we really want to be aware of who they are and what they are doing, but finding shards is more iffy since there is no way to control who they go to.

Those of real risk to us (the elders/those of greatest power) already know the truth, might as well make clear to the rest our capabilities so that they clearly understand we are not on a power level they can mess with.

This is very arguable. A half-brained scheme by Kakuri servants, using very incomplete understanding of what an exaltation is, a ritual made on a shoestring budget and a very tight timeline, and working against an actively hostile active exaltation had a chance of success. A low chance, but a chance still.
A proper setup made by an actual infernal exalted, with significant prep-time, Ancient Sorcery and charms, and involving both a non-hostile exaltation and carefully selected and prepared candidate has far more chances, I feel.
I wouldn't bet on being able to select hosts for a solar exaltation, but Infernal ones are special. They have sapient coajutors, who we should be able to actually talk and bargain with, and who might be able to be convinced to side with us / exalt our allies (as long as they are actually suitable for exaltation). Especially if we are the ones to excavate them and give them a chance.

[X] Crown questions after the fighting ends
-[X] Occult excellency and ATB
-[X] Using the body of the sacrifice "Who is the Empyreal Chaos spoken of by the being summoned through this sacrifice?"
-[X] Using the bodyguard "What were the plans of the being they fought alongside with and tried to protect?"
-[X] Using a random party goes of no importance "what was the non-human language heard by this person during the fight?"
I am not letting the questions get away from me.

Let's say you are right who would you propose as our candidates?
So, that's actually a very good question. So, let's see the criteria for an infernal exaltation:
I am, to be honest, unsure if we have anyone truly fitting. We generally work hard to prevent people in our monkeysphere from feeling like failures.
Harry might fit a tiny bit, even if he's more of a Solar. Olivia might also work. However, my best answer would be - once we get our kingdom, look through its population to find a suitable candidate.
- Pronouns
- She/Her
I'm pretty sure DP said the only other active Exaltation he had planned to be outside the Vault is a Sidereal? And obviously opening the Vault isn't going to give us any control over anything, it's too big, so we should be more focused on potential Sidereal candidates.
… which is one of the hardest Exalted types to predict in terms of potential hosts, even without throwing in the extra variable of not knowing which cast we're dealing with. Don't know how that works out. Unless someone has ideas?
