Mission:Tip - Scrawled Bark
Scrawled Bark (45?-50)
You find a piece of tree bark with writing carved into it and decided to investigate.
The Devouring Earth have left messages like this as a warning to others that dare cross them. This one is a proclamation: they are enraged by a Crey laboratory which flagrantly pollutes the land, and are devouring its scientists in retaliation.
Crey naturally has refused to comment on the matter, but you've found out they're more concerned with saving their lab than their scientists.
The Devouring Earth cannot be allowed to simply execute whoever they want. Regardless of their potential crimes, the scientists ought to be saved from their fate.
But if you go after them, Crey no doubt will resecure their lab and continue to spew filth from it. Isn't that the greatest threat?

Hero Acceptance
Briefing
The Devouring Earth are planning to execute the Crey scientitsts because their lab has been polluting the environment. It's not a huge surprise that Crey would be involved in lawbreaking, but that's no reason to allow the Devouring Earth to get away with cold-blooded murder.
All indications point to a nearby known cavern as where the grisly sentence is to be carried out. Once the Crey are rescued, you can see that they are properly prosecuted for their involvement in the pollution.
Rescue the Crey scientist from the execution
The Devouring Earth will dispatch their captives soon now that the word is out. Better hustle.
Mission Objective(s)
The various grunts, growls and screeches from the Devoured indicate fervent anticipation. Too bad for them the execution won't go as planned
- Save the Crey scientists
- 4 Crey sientists to rescue
- Stop the executioner
You've stopped the Devouring Earth execution of the Crey scientists
Enemies
Notable NPCs
- The Executioner (Devouring Earth Greater Devoured) (Boss)
- Crey Scientist x4 (NPC, non-escort)
Debriefing
You've rescued several Crey scientists from a gruesome fate, despite their own guilt. These scientists will answer for their crimes in a court of law, instead of the merciless claws of the Devouring Earth monsters.
Vigilante Acceptance
Briefing
The Crey scientists captured by the Devouring Earth are already as good as dead. Yet if you know Crey, they've already restaffed and are back to whatever diabolical manufacturing they were up to. If that lab isn't shut down, the enviromental damage could continue unabated.
They have enough lawyers to tangle whatever legal route is being taken to stop the lab for decades. There's only one way to shut it down, and that's with your own two hands... and some explosive charges.
Destroy the polluting Crey laboratory before they can recover.
Security will be on high alert and increased patrols due to the recent attack. You'd better stay alert.

Explosive Charges |
| These charges will readily take out even a reinforced laboratory. Just make sure to keep a safe distance. |
Mission Objective(s)
This lab is alerted back in full swing since the attack. Time to finish what was started
- Destroy the polluting lab!
- 3 explosive charges to set
- 2 patrols avoided (optional)
- Defeat the Crey Security Chief to escape
You've planted enough charges to demolish the polluting lab
Enemies

Ambush!
After planting the last bomb you will be ambushed by a squad of Crey guards including the Crey Security Chief |
Debriefing
You demolished a toxic Crey lab, but their captured scientists were lost. That's one less source of pollution in Paragon City.
