Changes
The shield of Amber Five suffered a partial failure due to the compression of [[The Crushing Fist]], resulting in leaking radio and television transmissions originating from within the shield. [[Alek]] and a volunteer detachment traveled to Amber Five via [[Earth 44]], but found that the [[Mictlan]] and other dangerous entities had already arrived and devastated the local population.
[[Alek]] intends to attempt to negotiate successfully negotiated with the [[Mictlan]] in an effort to reach the backup shield generator facilities housed on the [[Branch World]], as well as convincing it to join [[The Battle of the Capital Temple]]. During the final stages of [[The Crushing Fist]], Alek and a number of others assisted in attempting to strengthen the [[Outer Shield]], prior to their evacuation. Amber Five was presumed destroyed with all remaining population not killed by the [[Mictlan]] when it was used as a magnet to draw [[Inter-reality Dust]] away from the [[Outer Shield]]. It has however since transpired that the [[Branch World]]s not destroyed outright during [[The Crushing Fist]] have likely survived being used to draw off the [[Inter-reality Dust]] due to the way their shields collapsed under the pressure.
