Ep 7 - The Book

by Anton Rossini

We found the book.
I flicked the lever opposite the portcullis - down turns the torches off, up turns them on; lever to the left of the portcullis puts the lectern down, and up; lever to the right raises the portcullis.
The ghouls are sedites, either Anarch or Sabbat aligned.
There was a lengthy discussion about what to do with the bodies, and whether or not this should be our future "burial ground".
We exit through the tunnel, and there is a Butcher's Barbeque van waiting outside. Malady and Fozzi go up and are invited in, while Larissa and Anton watch from a distance. When we join them, a Mr Harry Carpenter tells us he's been sent to offer us sustenance and take us to wherever we need to go.
He tells us he will take us to the Neko no Nyan nightclub (cnr Victoria Pde & Gore Street), which he does. He introduces himself as Nosferatu, and he asks after all of us.
The bouncer directs us downstairs to Alex. He takes us the rear, where we are introduced to Professor Mandarin of the Ventrue, who gratefully accepts the book from us. She gives us a card for Edith at the Nosferatu club, The Painted Lady.
Alex pays us $1050 each, cash in a brown paper bag. Anton deducts a tax of $300 from Fozzi's and Carpenter's bags, giving $200 to Malady and Larissa, who then puts $100 back in each of the bags.
Carpenter drives us to The Painted Lady. We are directed through a closet and then along a passage in which people are dressed in fetish gear, having sex, getting tattoos, and feeding. Anton sees several clans, including Ventrue who he recognise. The door we are directed to looks like the outside of a vault, and we are let in and asked to wait.
Fozzi, as usual, lets his mouth get him into trouble, and he is muted, manacled and used as an example of why respect is demanded while in the domain of another.
Edith directs us to find where the sedites are coming from. A man in the city - Judas - who the Anarchs and the Camarilla should have expelled. He is an ambassador of the sabbat city of Brisbane. Edith gives us a USB key, and tells us that all that matter is putting the program onto his computer; she is not concerned with what happens to Judas, who she describes as an abomination, and she wants to know what there is a sabat in a Camarilla city.
Went done, we are told to return to her at The Painted Lady; she gives us another card, and invites us to partake of the party, which Anton does.
