"Not here," Agnasci says, and leads the others into the book store. Once everyone is inside, Agnasci finally seems to lighten up a bit. "Penrose is wrong," Agnasci says simply. He doesn't even care if Faye overhears him. "I think we all know it. The Dogs of War are into something dangerous...

"Things are about to get really complicated," Agnasci mutters. "Let's get to the bookstore right away. For the first time in my life, I think I need to talk to a cop." Until the vehicle is out of sight of the DOW gang, Agnasci makes a point to keep his face turned away from them.

Zeta is taken a bit off guard by the sudden attack, and doesn't react as quickly as usual. Zeta wordlessly raises its sword and shield in a defensive position close to Muncher, ready to strike if the attackers don't immediately back down. There's nothing more to be said, so it remains silent...

Agnasci sends a group text to Law and Faye. "Identified one of the jerks Chance saw in the desert. Meet at the bookstore. DOW info to share." OOC: I figured if Harper doesn't have a phone, Faye's the best way to get a message to him. The dude does live at her shop, after all. :)

"No offense, but I don't really feel like explaining everything twice. Lets meet up with Law and Harper before we hammer this out." What he doesn't mention is that he's stalling. He hasn't come up with the right lie yet, and is a little afraid that he might have to actually tell the truth.

As soon as Big Rich is out the door, Agnasci speed-dials Chance. "Sorry about the wake up call," Agnasci says. "Had a bit of trouble, but it's on the back burner now. I had a hunch you might recognize the big fella in the picture. Let's get the others together somewhere neutral, and talk about...

I can't remember if Chance was already in Faye's truck when Faye came to pick Agnasci up. Either way, I think Agnasci wouldn't want Rachel to see the people he goes out with at night, so he would probably meet them at the entrance to the park instead of just answering a knock at the door. I...

"Of course I'm a people person," Agnasci says, cracking open the beer. "I keep you happy, don't I?" Agnasci takes a huge swig and sets the can down on the table. It feels good. Loosens him up. Makes the whole dance flow a little more smoothly. "All right," Agnasci says. "I'll talk to Weinberg...

Zeta follows Muncher through the bashed-in door. It occurs to Zeta that the person who knocked down the door may not be hostile. Perhaps they're explorers, too. Even so, Zeta takes no chances and keeps his shield and sword ready.

"Of course I don't have the stuff," Orlando says. "You think I keep it here?" Big Rich is a tough person to handle. It takes effort just to avoid violence, let alone get him to do what you want. Orlando would rather have to sweet talk an educated, upper-middle class suburbanite than this...

Orlando's heart sinks, but his face is a carefully-crafted mixture of confusion, surprise, and glee. "Jesus, Rich, what're you doing up at this hour?" He casts a glance toward the bedroom, where Rachel is surely not asleep anymore. Damn. No dodging this one...

Agnasci makes the long walk back to Tuxedo Springs trailer park, by himself. He prefers it that way, lately. Rachel will surely be furious when he comes home, covered in mud, after 3 in the morning. But then again, when isn't she furious? He briefly considered asking Penrose for a couch to...

Agnasci doesn't have anything else to say to Penrose. He wouldn't think of challenging him directly, but the others must have the same thought Agnasci has. Penrose is wrong about the ritual, and the Dogs of War. Agnasci will do as Penrose says. He'll investigate the new hallows, with the...

Agnasci begins the account. "We found the ley, out in the desert. There was a trailer just sitting out there. There had been some kind of botched ritual, and it somehow summoned a spirit of fear. The ritual involved animal sacrifice, and a statue carved to look like Chance, but I'll let her...

Agnasci is unsettled by the painting, but doesn't even try to look away. Everything else in the room seems mundane in comparison. He can't help but ask himself questions about the scene he's staring at. Who is the second man, staring up from the corner? What exactly was the devil's crime...

Zeta weighs the options. Return to the others? Not optimal. Not enough information to report, yet. Zeta heads toward the glimmer of movement, cautiously and slowly, watching and listening for a possible threat.

When Chance returns to the trailer, Agnasci heads back to the truck. "Fine. Have it your way. Rest of us don't mind waiting around for the trap to spring, anyway," he grumbles, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Zen(4)Zeta was perhaps the oldest, and certainly the least approachable of the group. Zeta stood near Muncher, quietly assessing the construct, as Zeta does with every being it comes across. Durability, comparable. Destructive potential, superior. Status, ally. The last order given to Zeta...

Zen(4)Zeta Lawful Neutral Warforged Lv 4 Fighter Strength: 17 Dexterity: 12 Constitution: 20 Intelligence: 14 Wisdom: 12 Charisma: 8 Description: Zeta is a tall, heavy Warforged. Its body is sharp, non-organic angles of adamantine and sinew. Its jaw serves no actual...

When Faye's flashlight comes across Agnasci, he speaks up. "I don't think anything's to be done about the ley. Let's tell Penrose, and see what he thinks."
