Memories of Northern Rally 2025 ～ 十勝へ移動編
[Music] Pilgrim 1 eyes front. This operation will be conducted under the strategic oversight of airborne command unit Awax Fox Echo. Fox Echo is a high altitude surveillance and coordination platform equipped with multiband radar and encrypted comms relay. Throughout the mission, it will serve as your overwatch vector control and tactical uplink. Treat all transmissions from Fox Echo as priority grade. Effective immediately, you are formally assigned to the seventh tactical reconnaissance squadron, call sign, Northern Spear. This unit is tasked with precision mobility, terrain intelligence, and cultural liaison across the northern frontier of Japan. Your designation, Pilgrim 1. Your role to navigate, observe, and document, not merely as a pilot, but as a carrier of memory and meaning. Before we begin, understand the scope of what lies ahead. Operation Northern Rally 2025 is a multi-phase reconnaissance and mobility exercise conducted across the eastern and northern sectors of Hokkaido, Japan. The mission spans 7 days integrating cultural mapping, terrain navigation, and interunit coordination. You will traverse coastlines, mountain ridges, and strategic waypoints from the eastern edge of Neurro to the northern tip of Soya and back through the heartland of Ferrano. This is not a race. It is a ritual of reach, a journey of precision, memory, and presence. Your deployment begins at Musikasuji base. On July 17th, you will launch under mission phase horizon lift, arriving at Orine Naval Port by 1945 hours. Execute carrier landing on CV Saporro. Expect limited deck clearance and crosswind vectors. Overnight, you will traverse the Tigaru Strait. On July 18th, at 1,430 hours, disembark at Tomakami West Naval Base. Proceed inland via Trans Ridge, a tactical crossing of the Nisho Pass. Arrival at Obihro Base marks the end of phase zero. Refuel, recalibrate, and stand down. On July 19th, depart Obihairo and proceed eastward to Nemro. Phase one, eastern scout, begins upon arrival. You are to conduct visual reconnaissance across 10 designated scenic points within Neurro City. That evening, all units will convene for inter squadron symposium and final briefing for phase 2. Under the command of Brigadier General Kawashima, all participating units will engage in phase 1, Eastern Scout, a cultural reconnaissance exercise across Neurro’s designated 10 scenic points. While the objective is to navigate and document as many of the 10 locations as operationally feasible, full completion is not mandatory. Priority one is timely return to base. Units are advised to assess terrain, weather, and time constraints dynamically. Awax Fox Echo will monitor unit movement and provide vector updates as needed.
