[QUOTE="GreenKarl, post: 7038942, member: 6801242"] Looking around Giuseppe is fairly sure that the lady is at the very least Middle Class. You would guess that she is some type of mid-level steam and/or electro-tech engineer, based on some of the pictures, knickknacks and various awards scattered about the room. It appears that she is a member of the local [I]Machinist Union of the Empire[/I], a fairly large organization of various engineer types that act something akin to a social club. Finally you spotted an award from the [I]Trevithick Rail & Steam Company[/I], hinting pretty strongly that this is who she works for*. To Eli, Miss Byrne says "Of course, of course. I assume that the... Order... has informed you of my requests - the location of my mother's final remains." Shipping from her cup she continues "My mother passed away peacefully in her sleep just over three weeks ago. It... wasn't unexpected - she was getting fairly old - but still came as a surprise." "Per my mother's instructions, I informed [I]Vaquera Cremations[/I] of her departure and they sent a carriage and transported her remains to their location. She had prepaid for the cremation. She was like that... supporting various small businesses within the neighborhood. She said that we had to do that as our civic duty... to support the small business man and woman." "I was to retrieve her ashes some 20 days ago. I go to the place, and the mortician there says that my mother’s ashes and personal effects were in storage and it’d take a week to get ‘em." "Seems fine, right?" She grimaces and takes a long sip from her drink. "Well, I come back a week later and no one’s there. I tried the next day and same thing, no one. The place isn’t boarded up or anything, just locked and closed. So maybe the guy’s sick, right?" "Well, I went back every day for a week and still nothing. I put in a request with the local constables to look into it, but of course they’re busy, so I wait and wait, and I go back there every day, and there are other people who have been having the same problem, and…" She takes several deep breaths, followed by another long drink from her cup.

[gm]*With that good role the above info, plus the Trevithick Rail & Steam Company is one of British leading steam-railway companies of the Empire. They own much of the railway lines and engines in the American & Canadian Colonies and in throughout India. They are only one of many competing railway companies on the British Isle.
