Weekend at Winstons

A very angry Raven gets in contact with her Bishop at last and they talk over what to do with this dilemma. Kashrimi takes Winston to try and find his old pack and what of the mysterious kindred who caused all this chaos.

Bleach The Bones of Comrades Slain

... and from the corpses of two ravaged packs comes THE SWARM!

Kreuger awakens, ravaged by his Beast due to the Cursed Infection. After stalking and feeding, he meets with Legate Seth and the two of them agree to combine their decimated packs to forge one strong pack: 40K Fireflies, or "The Swarm".

Priority #1: keep the Ductus and Priest alive by eliminating this Cursed Infection, which they head off to do in their separate methods.

Train of Thoughts

Seth and Violet meet within the subway. They discuss various things, which is giving Violet a better outlook on the city but bore Seth right out of his mind (which is a pretty nice feat for a Malkavian). Just when things are really turning bleak (as in boooooring) a well placed comment changes a lot, at least for Seth.

Frenzies and Follies

Bitte meets up with Winston and before they have a chance to talk about recent adventures and the like, the gift that Winston brought to show respect to Bitte for her attempt to save his other pack mates and help her heal some of her wounds she obtained in the good fight causes her to go into frenzy. She can't seem to control herself and the follies pick up from there. The night ends with Bitte chasing off one Caneite by the name of Bane and both Bitte and Winston in torpor by the hands of a new Cainite Willam Becker and his dog.

Royal Rumble

Necessary Violence continues to make their mark on the Cainite world of Zuster City. This time with a whole less violence then you might have expected from them.

Lovely Lads, Dead and Rotten

Arthur the Wicked tries to make a mark on the city; unfortunately his powers of persuasion exceed his ability to find the right mark. Fortunately, he attracts the attention of Naberius and Legate Seth, who join him for the ride.

Simon Says? Mama Said!

Even people Seth hasn't met try to screw him over. 'Someone' informed Ductus Bratos that Legate Seth is the one to answer questions regarding Papa Bratos' demise. Once again the Legate verbally navigates to safety. He almost loses another leg, but at least hobbles away to stalk another day.

What Dreams May Come

A shady stranger finds Winston.

Steady Like A Metronome

Legate Seth encounters the newest arrival, Naberius, while hunting. As he was en route to visit Professor Kashrimi, Seth invites the newcomer to come meet the Friendly Bishop. After introductions, Bishop Kashrimi includes Naberius in their discussions regarding The Curse. We shall see if this information-gatherer is able to help gather the needed information...

The Morning After the Night Before

Bishop Middlewaithe addresses Legate Seth and Winston the Scholar in the aftermath of the Hunter raid and Bratos' Monomancy. Seth informs Simon about what more has been discovered regarding the Hunters, the Curse, and the lost Fireflies. After hearing their Bishop's suggestions, Seth and Winston decide to take a night to decide upon the future of the Fireflies and themselves.

Healing a Wounded Animal

Seth has been handed over to Professor Kashrimi, the professor uses what he has available to feed his sect mate. He then questions him on the operation that went down against the hunters. The Professor writes everything down before he reports to the cardinal.

The Straw that Broke the Camel's Back

The Cainites go for the final push to find the taken Fireflies. However, will they be in time to save them and who will they find holding them?

Cruel To Be Kind

Legate Seth meets with Brother Kreuger to discuss Theology, Noddism, and Nihilism in the ruins of Kreuger's church.

Another Day at the Office

It's hard work when you're in charge of a department with an aggressive growth platform. Two department heads meet for a couple beers early in the evening to discuss goings-on at the office, the nasty cold going around, and how to effectively provide a counter-offer to diffuse a hostile takeover currently underway.

The Withering Rose

Simon Middlewaithe and Winston Russel take the next step to finding the taken Fireflies. It takes them to a Floral shop named "In Bloom" that is clearly being protected by some people. The two Malks take a very peculiar approach to entering this shop but eventually they do make it inside. However, what they find isn't what they were looking for. When it is moreover time for these Malks to leave they run into quite a few hiccups that leaves some of them not standing.

Game Time!

A game of Hedgehog goes awry.

Midnight Oil

Four priests climb onto an oil rig.

Wild Goose Chase

The search for the taken Fireflies begins. The three Malkavian Stooges find a Meat Packing Factory and inside they find there are many traps waiting for them. As they move in closer and closer they realize this was clearly meant as a set up. However, who could have been behind all of this?

I Got This, Right?

Legate Seth reports to his other Bishop, in response to receiving unexpected assistance earlier in the evening.

We're On It

Legate Seth reports to Bishop Middlewaithe.
