[QUOTE="Andrew Moreton, post: 7512935, member: 6920268"] At the beginning of the session they rehashed what they already new while not coming to many new conclusions they at least made certain they were all on the same page about Lorcan Kell and Ob activities. One new idea was that the Mindmaker may have been creating network command minds for a large golem army, they are still trying to work out what is being made in the bleak gate and match the discrepancy that it is a very large effort but the Mindmaker could only have built a limited number of minds , so they think it is either One Big Golem, a small number of very dangerous (adamantine or better) golems or the new theory a large golem army commanded by a number of smart command units. They also decided that the B-Team would continue to handle the eschatologists as they seemed to be on top of them while the main team dealt with Kell and Ekosigan. On the morning of the 9th they sent teams of officers to check out each of the districts 2 teams to the Nettles and Parity Lake. Manuel and El Kevin checked out the theatre while Ulvaar and Padme checked out the Nettles compound Casa Machete at the same time Nevla went to work with their docker contacts to check out the docks and try and find out what if anything Lorcan was up to with the newly forming dockers union. The theatre showed what they expected a stronghold too tough for them to take on yet, Casa Machete on the other hand they decided they could take particularly if the concealed cannon were taken out of the picture they decided to hit it that evening, Nevla would call on her adoptive father and borrow a detachment of Elven rangers to support an attack by all available pc’s. At the docks Nevla determined that some cargo’s were vanishing from barges my magical means presumably going to the bleak gate at which point Manuel realised that this could involve Rusted Iron gates on bridges. In the afternoon Nevla went into the cloudwoods to try and get some leads on Ekosigan and find out why she had difficulty getting in touch with Gale via messenger wind, Manuel and El Kevin went on a bridge inspection tour leaving Ulvaar and Padme to lead a hit on an illegal transaction while the majority of their constables scouted out the fronts and thieves den’s they had located. The sting was a bust as someone betrayed their approach however the spy was no match for Ulvaar’s eagle eye and was rapidly apprehended.
