SCP-7000 - We Will Endure

The Hy-Brasil luck wards were first mentioned in LTE-0851-Cetus, back in 2018. I never really put too much thought into them at the time, but it was an element of the canon that's existed since the earliest days: Hy-Brasil falls because of its own hubris.

I was pretty stumped when "Luck" was announced as the 7K theme, and then remembered this — it occurred to me that I could spin a story out of that concept, and make a new origin for War on All Fronts. This ties back into one of the oldest ideas for a WoAF article, that's never fully be manifested: a fairy princess who knows the island will fall and dies in the attack, an idea had by myself or someone else who I discussed WoAF with back in 2018. The article here is loosely connected to that theme, but it was an inspiration.

Some notes:

O5-1 at one point calls the Tuatha Dé Danann "leprechauns". This is an incredibly offensive and inaccurate racial slur. It does not represent what they actually look or behave like.
One line from this — "It wasn’t supposed to storm in Hy-Brasil." — is a quote from DrChandra's A Foul Storm in a Fair Land. It's pretty minor so I'm not citing it in the licensebox.

Thanks to our critters, for looking this over. Check out their excellent entries to the 7000 contest (or another article of their choice if not applicable)!
