    Determination will only go so far. The air is getting heavier. Running into it helps press it into one's lungs, but still, it moves so slowly. With every step, the Facility grows a little darker, she moves a little slower.

    The child is just ahead, but keeps out of reach. Through the common area, down the hall, behind the reception desk, into the cafeteria. Not quite catcheable.

    Kirin lets Xavier pull her around a bit, and is (of course) light enough that it isn't too hard. She's somewhat surprised at the cushy floor. "Thanks, but I cold have made that myself. Nice move!"

    Screaming silently.

    The silently part is important.

    Whatever he's getting ravaged by seems to be horrifically painful, but aside from where the man is scratching at himself it doesn't seem to actually be causing any physical harm to him. There's no telling when he might-

    Oh.

    There.

    He stopped and the ring faded away.

    Now he's just curling up in a ball and whimpering.

    The alley also smells of fresh urine now.

    [Philip Memorial Library]

    The Librarian looks at the newcomer in a dispassionate fashion. "Save for the Necronomicon all of those writings can be found in the public portion of the library. However, if you wish to read books found in the rare book room you must make a contribution."

    He'll then go on to outline the same quest that he gave to the other crazy guy who showed up just a few pages back!

    Looks like they don't let you read the Necronomicon for just any reason.

    [Abrajin's Library]

    All sorts of library posts today.

    The opulent hallway is lined with doors about kingdoms. Kingdoms in the sense of animal classification, kingdoms in the sense of government, kingdoms in the sense of businesses with kingdom in their name...

    "You, man. Are you still useful?" The captain will gently poke him in the ribs with the barrel of her flintlock pistol whilst Cinnamon Stick takes a step back.

    The old man nods and will turn around slowly.

    Unfortunately, I haven't been following the scene so I have no idea what the quest actually is.

    Oh fine, make Rebo go to the previous page and find it again.

    *ahem*

    "There is a red zone here in Arkham Street known as The Black Goat Woods. Somewhere within the confines of that cursed park there is a crypt where the Codex of Thuul has been laid to rest. Find it and return here with it," the Librarian says. "Whoever brings me the Codex will be given access to the rare book room."

    Ooooh.

    Sounds like a contest.

    [Shady Alley]

    He probably won't be in any condition to talk for a little while at least.

    Philip Memorial Library --> Black Goat Woods

    The old man nods and hobbles away, leaning heavily on his walking stick as he goes. His coat is rustling behind him.

    Shady Alley- Pretty Pastel Pony Pirates

    Volley will try to search the man. She's aiming to swipe his wallet and most of his salt, which she'll try to destroy. She doesn't agree with ponies that rely on salt. Alcohol, however, is another matter entirely. She'll also take any jewellery or anything that looks like it might be valuable. His mobile phone, if he has one, is likely to be ignored because she and her crew are unfamiliar with the technology, so unless it's sparkly or Volley Shot accidentally turns it on she won't know it isn't just a lump of plastic.

    The guy totally has a mobile phone.

    But oddly enough no wallet.

    Huh.

    Weird.

    Just lots of pockets in that big coat of his. None of which contain any money. Or anything else for that matter. It turns out that his various stashes seem to be pretty small. A lot smaller than one might expect.

    He's too busy whimpering pathetically to protest.

    In that case, if there's so little of obvious value on him, Volley will take the phone. Also his coat, his shoes and any other items of clothing that are easily removed via telekinesis. She doesn't want to make a loss.

    Also, Cinnamon has now counted Trog's out as a place to stay- they were asking him so they knew the ones to avoid, thinking he and some friends would come pay them a visit if he knew where they were staying.

    And so the magical talking tiny horses acquire some more loot!

    And presumably go back to the train station?

    Or maybe not?

    Rebo really doesn't know!

    Though presumably Earl does.

    There really isn't anything else of note in the alley aside from the now coat-less man and the unpleasant aromas coming from various unpleasant piles of refuse.

    They will indeed head back to the train station. They leave him where he is without killing him because murder attracts more attention than a mugging and they're confident in their abilities to defend themselves. Plus, Cap'n Volley Shot is uncomfortable about killing something that is incapable of fighting back. She'll shoot first, but generally only to avoid harm.

    This is an odd interrogation. Nothing relevant seems to have come up yet.

    A cleanup crew in fancy futuristic hazard suits arrives via an Irregular aerial transport. They're probably there to deal with any radiation shenanigans. Because, you know.

    Radiation is bad.

    Unless anyone tries to talk to them they'll just unload from the transport and go about cleaning stuff up. It probably involves some technobabble about radiation absorbers and polarities and all that stuff.

    It's probably odd, though, considering nobody actually saw Vyrn around as far as I know, and this would apparently be their first response to the whole thing. Weird!

    "Alright, let me just deal with this." Kirk takes the paper and puts it into a scanner. As he fiddles with the computer on the desk he says, "So, have you done much mercenary work in the past?" His tone conversational.

    "Heh, thank you. I've never had to do it so fast before." With another gesture, the floor returns to its normal state. Xavier helps Kirin to her feet, and after looking to make sure she isn't hurt, he looks around the hallway.

    "This hall is much less useful than I would have hoped." And really speaks to the terrible layout of the place... if the switching gravity thing didn't do that already. "Maybe if we go into one of these there'll be another door somewhere else."

    Krayger shrugs. "Pretty good amount amount, yeah. Salvaging from dangerous areas, clearing out infestations, expeditions. For some reason despite not trusting me enough to enter their businesses plenty of folks are confident in my ability to smash things. Not as much since crossing worlds; at least here people are more polite about it. "

    "Ah yes. Well, that's people for you, eh? Sounds like you can take care of yourself, though." Kirk says. As he does, he finishes up at the computer. "Okay, now all we need is a picture and you'll be officially licenced by NO." Kirk leads the minotaur through the process of getting his photo taken. When that's done, Kirk heads though a door behind the desk and leaves Krayger to wait for a few minutes. When Kirk returns, he holds out a card. "There you go. Just present that whenever you need to prove we've licenced you."

    Krayger avoids taking a terrible ID photo, but it's not exactly flattering either. Regardless he takes the card, scrutinizes it a bit, and then sticks it in his wallet.
    "Alright, then. Thanks for your help."
    And so unless Kirk has anything to add Krayger will leave him to his, ahem, "work."

    Krystal slowly sits up, wincing a little as she does. Then she nods a little. Yeah, it comes in handy often enough. The swelling on her arm has gone down a bit already.

    She offers her other hand out. Name's Krystal, by the way. Sorry for flying into you like that.

    As she turns a corner (assuming there isn't a ridiculously long straight hallway), she'll hit an old man who is not, for some reason, frozen. He's short and Oriental-looking, with leathery skin, not as wrinkled as you might expect, and is wearing robes. He hasn't, however, subscribed to the long-droopy-moustache tradition of Old Masters. He's as solid as a rock, and doesn't even flinch as she runs into him. She'll probably land on the floor.

    Mostly by biting at Magtok's fingers before it gets chucked off the vault.

    "I am not sure. I think you should have given him a chance. Maybe he could have been amusing."
    To Libby, if no one else.

    Of course, she's still trying to pretend she's not actually helping him (which...she hasn't done at all so far, has she?), so quipping at her partner's choices are the best her role can offer.
    She's really good at being a background voice.


    And there was no rocket to notice!
    Mostly because they were still getting the launcher.
    "Hey, how do you turn this thing on?"
    "The blue button, dummy. Did you pay attention at all during the briefing?"
    "...yes?"


    A puff of smoke from below and what seems to be some impossibly electrified rocket is launched their way.
    How does that even work? There's nothing for the electricity to arc to.
    "The arcanotech would be slightly more impressive if the wielders didn't appear to be deliberately incompetent."


    "I can't say I'm not more than a little disappointed by the quality of superhuman we have on display here, yeah."

    The cyborg pales, knowing full well what Tesla cannons, EMP grenades, RPPs (Rocket-Propelled-Pikachus) and the like are capable of doing to his circuitry. He puts a hand to his wrist, and reluctantly relays an order to the enormous ship carrying the vault up and away.

    "Ground Control to Major Tom, we have a situation down here, switch to evasive maneuvers! Libby, I strongly recommend you hold on to some-"

    Aaaaaaaaaaugh! Magtok is immediately thrown against one of the vaults walls, the entirety of the thing swaying in the air as their escape craft tries to abruptly twist out of the way of the rocket! He promptly falls to the ground, and then crashes against the opposite wall, before finally remembering one of the shiny new features of his particular brand of MagClone. He activates the magnet-boots, hoping against hope he won't have to actually try walking or anything until this nightmare is over.

    {]And Now For Something Completely Different[}

    [Hodgepodge Street - Fountain Way]

    Ever seen a street fountain before?

    The middle of the broad footpath is a garishly colored rubbery material that provides traction even when soaking wet and a soft landing in case someone trips. Little jets of water are installed below it and spout spurts high into the air irregularly, filling the hot summer sky with iridescent mist. And there at the nexus of the fountains is a large public pool with a truly majestic geyser dominating it.

    Fountain Way is another recent arrival to the City. And it was only a matter of time before it was discovered by teeming children and businesses wishing to take advantage of the money of said children's parents. Push carts have set up out of the reach of the spraying water and splashing children selling all fashion of summer treats.

    Kids of all races dance about in the water, laughing and making merry. Parents play with their children or lounge in the sun outside beyond the range of the joyful ruckus.

    Come take a dip in the water! Run through the fountains! Buy a hot dog! Have some fun! Enjoy the pool party!

    [Abrajin's Library]

    Through the door on political kingdoms they go!

    Beyond is a massive room painted to appear as though it is outside. And in the midst of the chamber? A enormous model of a castle! Made of books. Tiny clockwork people inhabit the castle and its surrounding lands. And every now and again everything rearranges to represent a different kingdom.

    It's all rather fascinating.

    Up until some tiny knights move to surround our heroes.

    "Halt!" one yells up at them in an equally tiny voice. "You trespass on the lands of King Steve!"

    [Market Street]

    It is a nice day out and Market Street is crowded with people shopping and browsing. Among the crowd of people Angie and Jay wander together, chatting and looking at the wares layed out for sale. Angie is wearing a light silk dress, blue with a wave like pattern on it, her arms uncharacteristically bare. Jay is dressed in tight blue jeans, with a white cotton shirt and deep purple vest over that. Both look like they are fairly wealthy, Angie actually wearing a old fashioned belt pouch with coins in it.

    Of the two Jay has a harder time blending into the crowd. Her head swivles around fairly often as she tries to keep an eye on her surrondings at all time. She gives off a wary air and her hand is rarely far from her conceled dagger. Angie does a better job of looking more nonchalant. Though she occasionally looks through the crowd looking for the third of their group.

    Ken a skinny teenager didn't come to the street with Angie and Jay, he beat them here by a few hours. He has been mingling and observing for awhile now, searching for someone or something as discretly as possible.

    Mist Anders walks through the streets, hands in the pockets of his dark coat. It seems the summer heat hasn't reached here yet. He's wearing lighter pants, but no shoes on his foot-paws. He's mingling quite well. If he wasn't one of the only people here with a muzzle he'd barely stick out at all.

    "Oh, well we were just passing through." Xavier exchanges a look with Kirin. Well this is odd. "We didn't mean to trespass in your kingdom here."

    [Market Street]

    Angie and Jay wander around the booths, looking at clothing, jewlery, even buying a few odd looking fruits from one cart filled with exotic looking foods. They munch on their fruit as they make their way over to watch a juggler with a small crowd gathered around him.

    If Mist isn't careful he might run into a pickpocket making his way around the crowded street. Esspecially if he has any thing of obvious worth showing on his person. The pickpocket, a half-elf fellow, is actually a pretty good pickpocket, who has a decent amount of experaince working this street.

    Mist's coat looks pretty nice, and he is wearing a half-decent watch and a small silver pendant on a leather loop. Still, common sense would probably point out that he's a terrible mark. His waving tail makes his hard to get behind him, and his nose and ears make it easy to tell if someone's getting close to him.
    That being said, if the half-elf does go for him as Mist stops to look at some wares, unless he's completely silent and there's enough half-elves around to cover his smell Mist will just sidestep him as he gets close, making it look coincidental.
    If he's very, very good Mist's coat pockets contain a steel pencil case and a number of small knives. His wallet and phone are in his pants pockets, which are well covered by his coat.

    Misspelled cematary

    A crusader would walk nearby to the "cematary"'s gates, slightly curious about the whole place, but also wondering why is it in such a bad state, maybe it'd be something he would have to fix around.

    [The Mispelled Cemetary]

    Funny thing about the various Red Zones of Inside. There is plenty of warning before you arrive in one of them. Not exactly the sort of place that is easy to stumble into. Especially since Irregular and Remnant guards are typically stationed around the area to make sure that awful things don't come leaking out into the (relatively) peaceful parts of the City.

    Anywho!

    The cemetery itself is fairly standard. Rickety old cast iron gate surrounding it. Crumbling headstones and ancient crypts. Phosphorescent green fog drifting just above the rotting earth. Dead trees with gnarled branches swaying in the fell wind.

    And, of course, the unded that are staggering about.

    It's Tuesday, and that means degenerated, crumbling skeletens are shambling about aimlessly, many of them clutching shovels or picks in their boney hands.
