I apologize if this isn’t applicable or if it’s already being accounted for, but I was pondering the notion of us Defending a Realm that we know to be doomed. I’m eager to see the full context, but one idea I wanted to bring up for consideration would be to have some type of monument or statues or something in the future version of Highsteppe to commemorate those players in this era who choose to fight for the current world even knowing that to some degree it was a lost cause. Whether it’s based on individual contribution or fellowship, or some type of combination, I think it would be a nice way to both honor what came before as well as encourage everyone to contribute and fight as hard as possible through the event.
It’s a little reminiscent of the concept behind the Monument of Swordsmen from SAO, which I consider to be a bonus, heh. Anyway, thanks for your time and consideration, and if anyone has suggestions on how to improve this idea, or why it may not be viable, let’s discuss it.
