Summary

Mara tries to atone for past mistakes by completing a project that Dave would have cared about. This time without blowing anyone up and hopefully with a more permanent effect.

Visit From Mortimer

Mortimer, the ally spirit of Mara's deceased friend Dave, comes to call as Mara relaxes in her hobbit hole. The pair discuss Dave, his legacy, the accident (in which Mara accidentally killed Dave with a bomb meant for Sumitomo Chemical), and Sumitomo Chemical. She learns that the company has moved to a new location and is up to their usual antics of being an environmental bad actor. As the night wanes, Mortimer suggests that Mara can atone and honor Dave's memory by getting Sumitomo to clean up their act on a more permanent basis.

Information Gathering

Mara sets out to gather information about Sumitomo Chemical and the current state of regulation enforcement in Redmond.
