			Returning to North Star and The Lady, the two informed her of what had happened. Roche, having had retribution for his death, found the revenge to be cold, just like the afterlife. He didn't feel any better or worse, but after letting his anger go, he slowly faded into ash, leaving nothing but his family behind.

	Some basic question at the NSI allowed Surtr to figure out where Roche lived. An apartment building, fifth floor. Six different houses on that floor, and a lot of new faces that were more than happy to open their door and welcome Surtr into their home. After a few closed doors, she decided to take a look on the astral. She found a promising target area, and one warded off.

There was troubling news that tugged at Surtr's heart strings. The children and mother, after losing their father and husband, weren't so hot on the street. Upon some careful searching, Surtr found a notebook and read the passage below:

	Trying the neighbor next door, Surtr found that a nearby neighbor had been taking care of the kids as she could.
			Trying the neighbor next door, Surtr found that a nearby neighbor had been taking care of the kids as she could. After some questioning, she found that the elf Nyrissa, had been the other woman in the Harrington's relationship. This didn't fly with Roche's wife, Johana harrington, who started to give Nyrissa a bad rep to her kids. The situation brought Surtr to tears, so she left Nyrissa with 2500 Nuyen to help the kids with a simple message: "I don't care if you spend most of it on yourself, just make sure you use some of it to help the kids."

			Before leaving the apartment, Surtr dismissed her spirit of air with 100 drams and a message: "This will probably be the last time I summon you. We likely won't see each other again. Thank you for your protection over the last 30 years."

			Stumped on where to go next, she reached out to her matrix contact, [[$p1keslinger]]. With some extra info, they found that Johana was around in Puyallup, so Surtr went to find them with the help of a spirit of man. Between the spirit and a sudden surprise visit of an angry Roche, the three smoked out a yakuza man who just wanted to clear his own name from the potential murder. Roche however, could tell his wife was inside, and wanted to kill the Yakuza member for touching his wife...

			''"We can't stay here forever. Gotta go back to Bellevue this week, but I don't know how I'm going to manage rent."
			"You will succeed. I will give you the money to pay your rent. These children cannot live here. They must have education."
			"I know, I know... sometimes I wonder if I should've just let the kids be taken. I'm such a failure..."
			"ジョハンナ-さん ! ! ! Pull yourself together! Your sons need you, now! Their father, the dog that he was, could not be a parent to them, but you can be!"''


			Surtr tried her best to calm Roche down, with the understanding that his death couldn't be undone. This person, through a mind probe, had been revealed to be taking care of Roche's wife, including the children. The bond they had fostered over the last three years was genuine, and interrupting that would only stand to heart his previous family.

			Calming down Roche, information was gathered to infer that led surtr to believe two men from Roche's work had been the one to kill him. Heading back to the apartments, they'd find that there was security tapes that showed two men trying to strong arm Roche's wife three years ago. A simple matrix search led the duo to the houses of Roche's assassins, in which Roche promptly killed in retribution.
