#the afterlife… the biggest superfund site of them all

Fantasy logistics are my passion so I am contemplating exactly what an undertaking cleaning up the afterlife would look like. Hopefully there are at least maps marking where the barriers are (they mentioned a cartography of dark London in the library, so fingers crossed) because otherwise you’ll need to send in scouts paired with bigger distraction teams to draw off the dead, and that’ll take a while to make sure you’ve got everything. Don’t want to tear down the gate and then learn you missed one. Then you need teardown teams paired with defense and probably another decoy group. The best strategy would probably be to bring something long and hook the barriers to tear them down from a distance, then wait for the stampede to finish before rolling the fencing up and carrying it back. Since that’s a lot of metal to carry, you’d probably only do one gate per job, and if you’re at all reasonable you’d give workers long rests between jobs and retire them after 2 or 3 given the physical side effects. It would make sense to stagger teams so you always have a few veterans (maybe that’s one of the reasons Lucy goes over again?) but it’s a lot of recruiting, a lot of training, and a lot of traveling to make sure there aren’t barriers set up in other places as well. NDAs or no, it’s hard to imagine everyone would keep their mouths shut. There should be an increasing number of out of work agents to hire, though. They ought to be able to afford to pay them really good hazard rates after seizing the assets of the country’s biggest corporation.
