Project Black Dagger - MISSION: SIREN'S CALL

Keldor stays a distance behind the three, as it appears that they still have their payload in the cart. Keldor's guess is that they are going to place the cart then retreat. At which point Keldor will move in, surrounding the cart with numerous shaped charges and destroy it.

The people must be safe guarded, and at this point, Keldor can't be sure he isn't working alone, now. With what happened to Mac, Keldor assuming that the others have been dealt with as well. Mission first, then revenge . . .
 

[ooc: do they have the facilities for locking up people at the Black Dagger HQ?]
Yes. Small, but efficient for shorter periods. For interrigations and such.

You follow them until they come to a large circular steel door at
the end of the tunnel. The large ghoulish man lets go of the cart
and starts working on a large valve in the wall besides the door.
After a while, you hear a loud 'click' and the steel door opens.

The trio go inside, dragging the cart with them.
 

After you're sure they've disappeared through the door, you
follow them through. It leads to a basement of some kind. It's
full of buckets, shovels and all kinds of sanitary equipment.

A set of stairs leads up out of the basement. Besides the usual
steps in the staircase, there is a ramp for wheeled things, like
wheelbarrows or carts. Above, you hear the men and the cart
moving.

Keldor will continue the pursuit at a discreet distance. He will check the area around the door, making sure that no one lagged behind to deter him. Keldor will get his bearings underground trying to determine where he is in relation to the city and where they could be headed.

Bob the driver smiles his scarred smile:
"Back home me sirs? Consider it done. How long do you think
we'll be doing this for? I'm starting to long for a warm bed and
a warmer wife.
"

The carriage starts moving in the direction of the Upper City.

When up the stairs, it slowly starts to dawn on you where you are.
The League of Sanitation. A private enterprise that takes care of
most major sanitation of the Upper and Worker Wards for the
Guild, including the sewers.

You follow the suspects through a small maze of all kinds of sanitary
devices and machines, most of which you have no understanding
of how they work or for what purpose they were constructed.
Finally they come to a halt in front of a large set of steel enforced
doors. With a set of keys the taller darkly-clad man pulls from under
his clothing, they open the door and the ghoulish man-beast, drags
the cart outside. Now, for the first time in suitible illumination, you
can see the full form of the great metal monstrosity in the cart. It's
a large Automobot, a programmable, self-playing instrument, this
time in the form of an organ. Something grabs your attention, on
the side of the organ is the crest of the Dracani Dynasty, the Guild
Union's number one competitive New World state and the Guild's
opponent at war during the whole Mad Guildmaster fiasco.

They drag the cart outside and lock the doors behind them, leaving
you locked inside, all alone in the dark.
 

"Don't worry yourself my good man," Fealnne calls feebly to him, "I'm in no condition to go anywhere else tonight, I'll just see if I can get some medical at HQ. How about you Jack? Still thinking about meeting up with the others at that ball?"
 

After a while you get to King's Square, in front of the Guild HQ.

A large group of capes are gathered around something in close to
the HQ. Looks like a crime scene. As soon as the carriage stops,
you are approached by one of Commander Incognito's spooks.

"The Commander wants to meet you, he's up in the clocktower.
Use the library tunnel entrance, the usual entries are guarded
because of the ball.
"
 

Keldor lets his darkvision get used to the darkness as he listens at the door. Once he's certain no one is close, he holsters his revolver and pulls his picks (after putting his cigar back in his mouth). He works on the door with the picks. Only when he was finished did he realize that at some point during the picking he had lit his cigar.
