The sergeant handed the paper over to Saol, though it seemed to be mainly summaries of reports of sick or maddened animals.
Sgt Boros- You're going to want to be careful of any animals you come across, sick or insane. We have a rough location for Rhea but no way of knowing whether she's moved recently.
The sergeant nodded, ushering the group closer to his desk as he pulled out a roll of rough looking parchment.
Sgt Boros- The information supplied to us by the sentinels suggest she is trying a number of different toxins, affecting the mind and body of the local life. This wouldn't normally be a peacekeeper issue, but the affected animals have been lashing out at bystanders and we've had some report of damage to crops as well.
A blond nadrask with a closely shaven head wearing a long military coat wandered into the guard's barracks. As he walked he put his weight through the crook of bone he carried, though he didn't seem to need the support. When he reached the desk at which Sergeant Boros sat he rapped lightly on the surface to get the large man's attention.
Bind- Have any sentinels come to express interest in the Fallon contract?
Sgt Boros- Not that I have to tell you that, but no. Sentinels insist on making this a peacekeeper issue and then insist on having one of their own involved. Pain in my ass.
Bind- Well, when a sentinel shows up to ease that pain I'd be happy to offer my services to stop her.
Sgt Boros- Right, take a seat or something, then. I've got paperwork to do.
Bind- Of course, sergeant. Don't let me interrupt you.
Tobin smiled and headed away from the desk, propping himself against the hallway wall just outside the office. As soon as he was settled against the wall his staff slumped to the floor in the form of a snake, curling up into a spiral by his feet.
Sgt Boros- Gaben is the priority target, yes, but we want him alive. If he has done something to these kids I don't want the only person who knows exactly what in the ground.
The sergeant nodded, pointing to the rough outlines on the sides of the blueprint, indicating the height of surrounding buildings. One of which was slightly higher than that of their target.
Sgt Boros- The recruits seem to be completely taken in by whatever Gaben is selling, they refuse to speak to anyone else. Which makes sense, given he has them committing petty crimes all over the city. If I had the man power I'd try and grab them one at a time as they do their work, but that would take triple my current guard to pull off reliably.
Sgt Boros- Back door. And we don't have any proof of magic or machines being used to help their indoctrination, but they seem to have a very high recruitment success rate.
Illu's instincts served him well, as he noted two potential points of entrance and exit. The sewer system the building was designed to serve was never removed, and could likely be accessed somewhere nearby. There was also a vent system worked into the roof of the building, which might provide access for Arl or Illu owing to their relatively smaller frames.
The sergeant seemed to ignore the exchange between Illu and Sum'era in favour of continuing the briefing. When Arl looked he could only see two entrances, one at the back, leading into what would have been a workroom and one at the front.
Sgt Boros- Definitely steam burns. We're still not sure what happened to two of our other guards. They might have been made part of the group.
Sgt Boros- So long as the crushing leaves them alive. Seems like you've got enough people to make a good go of it.
Boros rolled out what appeared to be a blueprint.
Sgt Boros- Gaben and his acolytes or what-have-you, are holed up in what was going to be a junction station for the older sewer system before we had to rework it. Expect them to have used the metal and pipes inside to set up defenses. First guard we sent in came out with burns all over his face.
Sgt Boros- Well, you can take the pay with you. Good job... I suppose.
Sgt Boros- You're back the- where are your partners?
Bind- Well then, lets get to tracking her down then.

Bind- We can mete out some justice then.
