Summary
Man will one day have to face the evils of the world. He was granted God's gift of Will to choose purity, sanctity, and goodness for Himself. But that very same gift is one which may be corrupted. The Lord's Blessing may be twisted. So remember, good children of the Lord, to keep him close to your heart. For he is your salvation, your shepherd, your friend, and his love for you is Eternal.
To turn from him is to betray the first of his wishes. To turn from him is to invite evil into your heart, greater than any other. To turn from him is to make yourself The Enemy to God.
And you will be punished.
Background
Sergeant Jane Dior of the Knight Errant had been investigating a string of particular murders that had been going on for the past 4 days within Redmond. 8 deaths in that much time, all with their eyes burned out of their skulls. What was horrifying to her was the possibility that this was related to something else that had happened about a year ago - a string of deaths where without any signs of forced entry or a struggle, infected victims would be killed in the middle of their homes or in the car without warning. But this time was...different. There were signs of a struggle. 2 victims weren't infected. Something was...weird with this case. And unfortunately, the detectives were too busy handling terrorist threats Downtown to really care to help, so it fell upon the Sergeant to acquire...outside help.
The Meet
The meet happened in a back alley, down past Touristville and a liiiiittle bit less secure being so far from it. Asura arrived early to get a scope of the place, followed by Huntress, White Thistle, and finally Arete. There were others around them while they were discussing matters, but they didn't pay them any mind-not good to interfere with KE biz and get your ass in the slammer for it. The Sergeant filled them in on the details, gave them dossiers on the victims (or at least, the two non-infected with actual SINs to speak of), the various crime scenes and times when they took place, and whatever else KE could provide. The first agreed upon price was 10k nuyen for the info, along with weapons and gear "re-allocated" from the evidence locker if desired, and the team didn't really seem too keen to argue (to Thistle's chagrin). With that, they began to plan.
The Servant worked nearby. He was awaiting the next who needed him. The next sign that He was needed. He paid no heed to the rest of the flock nearby. He had other matters to attend to.
