Hmm. Yeah this might get kinda awkward. but hey, at least Wei's probably gonna get a headache after it's all over so that's a win in my books.
Edit: I had a thought, or rather I remembered something, turning into a horrific abomination ain't unheard of on Terra, the Frozen Abomination and Bishop Quintus being prime examples buuuut.. thats Nothern Demon and Seaborn shenaniganry respectively soooo... all aboard the "Wei Yenwu is about to have a bad time" train let's gooooo.

Would PL feel betrayed when they discover about the voice of distortion? Since we didn't tell them about something that seems very important.

How about...we don't explain?
I mean... Like I said before, it seems like something you have to tell those working with you. Also they would be suspicious about how we instantly kicked Capone off the car and we need to tell them the basics of Distortions in case another appears. We could lie and say we "heard in ancient stories" or some bull, but I don't think they will buy it...

We did notice he started dripping acid from inside himself somehow, which seems a valid reason. Weird inexplicable shit suddenly happening next to you etc.

We'll see, I am unsure either way
 
Wait, if a wave of Light is entering Terra thanks to Sieghart, that means that if the Light is seeping into the planet as a whole.... there's more than one Distortion awakening right now.

This ain't a place for rookies, so it's best if Bison got out of here. Sora too actually. Her buffs and heals are invaluable, but mentally she isn't in a place to be facing down horrors like this.

OOC-ly, Wei can probably handle this. He's mastered Chi-Xiao's techniques so well he doesn't need the sword itself to cut buildings anymore. Just his fingers. However, we absolutely don't want the boss man of the city getting involved since that'll mean trouble for us. Far as reinforcements go, the LGD doesn't visit this part of town since it's the Rat King's territory and police aren't welcome, so they're out. That leaves the Rat King and Lin Yuhsia, but we don't have a direct line to them without Uncle Tung. Mostima has Fiammetta looking out for her, and Fiammetta's heavy artillery could be really useful right about now.

Sadly, I don't think Exusiai keeps live ammo on her, so she's stuck using rubber bullets, but we should try regardless. No Full Stop office shenanigans for us!

[X] Shock the others out of their surprise by giving directions:
-[X] Exusiai and Mostima, provide covering fire and keep their distance. Tell Exusiai to switch to live ammo if she has any.
-[X] Sora and Bison, evacuate old man Tung and call for back-up, the big guns preferably, while the rest of us keep the monster in place.
-[X] Texas and Croissant should accompany you on the frontline to keep "Capone" in one place. Since you're fighting against the unknown, save your strength and only go all out in bursts to save yourself or your allies if anyone slips up.
-[X] If anyone has any tricks up their sleeve or any help to call on, now is the time!

Plan is for the frontline to keep our friend here busy while Mostima and Exusiai unload on him. Sora and Bison get Uncle Tung out of here, and that'll hopefully get the Rat King to help us out. Until then, our melee fighters keep Capone in place.

Huh, just as I asked. Seems like a pretty good battle plan

Unfortunately I think trouble is inevitable at this point.
Mostima and Emperor are completely fine and ready to fight already, Fiametta's probably on ball, if she's close enough to support that is, not that we would know that.
Rat King and Ch'en's girlfriend are possible backup but they're probably a ways off. If things somehow get worse than that there's always the Shadow Guard/Black Raincoats and if everything goes to absolute shit Wei himself, though I don't really see the latter two options coming into play personally, and Siggy wouldn't know about em anyways so eh. Don't really got a better plan.

I have a question. Why is Carmen trying to fuck everything up? Didn't she literally die in order to give the City even the faintest hope of it becoming even slightly better?
So why is Carmen Trying to kill everyone and acting like a bitch?
Well, now I have the energy. I can tell you that. But first, let's see a different character.
Adam.
The first of the 'new humanity' so he claims.
What did he did in Ending C?
He chose to turn all of humanity into abnormalities, To release the beast within their hearts, to make humanity something new.
Tell me. Does that sound familiar?
Adam, He does not lack Anything. He has the will to stand up straight. He has the rationality to see things through. He have the courage to keep on living. And he wants to be a better person in his own twisted ways.
he have the courage to protect his ideas. He had someone he trusted right beside him. His expectation for this action is a hopeful future, a future with better endings.
But he cannot see his past chearly so he can not build the future and he cannot Face his fear, so he become a element of the cycle. Another Source of brutal violence.
Does that sound familiar?
Carmen killed herself because her past, she cannot face her failures.
she will not face her fear of everything she did was wrong, and she fears hell that is the requirement of the seed of light, she cannot go through the cycle. So she staged everything and push Ayin into the position.
Even though she was the one representing everyone working together to achieve revelation, DA'AT
She is a coward, Killed herself only because she cannot face the sin of her action and the weight of everyone's future.
So she killed herself to push everyone's expectation on to Ayin, and see him break apart because of it.
But she does not see that, she does not see her action is what caused this. she sees the evil of the humanity itself is the cause of this.
So she did what Adam did.
This is why Carmen is such a little bitch. And is trying to kill everyone because of it.

Oh, yeah. That's true. But that is only a small part of it, Because I presume that experience stopped her from having any chance of receiving the last two requirement for enlightenment.
That frozen palace she built around herself will not be disturbed by anyones attempt to make her think clearly

We'll be fine for explaining sieghart doesn't know a lot of concrete facts about the distortion phenomenon because it's such a recent thing

Carmen is like this because she's convinced everyone would be happier if they just uncritically accept their basest desires as 'who they really are.' I'll have to read through Leviathan to be sure, but Carmen is pretty sure people would be happier if they all just ran away from all their problems and became Distortions instead.

It's like that 'if shit sucks... hit da bricks' meme, except instead of running, Carmen is telling you to Distort.

That philosophy and her implementation of it is so many levels of rapidly-cascading awful that I would unironically let the Seaborn assimilate me to get her out of my head. Jesus Christ.
