♬ We Sink - CHVRCHES

WHO || Cordelia, Alisha, Bambi, Kate, Phineas [Closed]
WHAT || The Knights continue to investigate a series of strange, deadly deliveries from the mysterious 'PTC'
WHERE || The Spider's Web / The Lagoon Club restaurant and nightclub
WHEN || April 11th [back dated]
HOW || Actionspam. Single thread, don't worry about maintaining tagging order.

Last April, a kindly book seller and purveyor of magical lore found himself the victim of an attack via mail when dangerous magical creatures were sent to his shop from the untraceable sender "PTC".  Since then, Wynn's been tracking the mail system, waiting for that name to pop up again, in case it might lead them to find out who was behind the first attack, and stop any other disasters from occurring.  Recently, something popped up on the radar, so the Knights have to find a way into the exclusive restaurant the Spider's Web in Manchester, or its attached nightclub The Lagoon Club.

[That's ... something of interest. Kate will nod in acknowledgement, before holding up her phone.]

While you do that, I should check in with my boss. He'll want an update and he might have an idea of how best to walk into this.

[And she will take a step back to call Wynn. She doesn't want to leave without knowing whether or not Estavan will take the meeting, and she needs an idea of how best to approach this.]

[ "This isn't something I can just do at the drop of a hat. You're gonna have to give me some time. Give me a means to contact you, and I'll let you know when I've got an answer from him. Estavan might take some convincing."

cordelia scribbles down a number and hands it over. ] Here. The sooner, the better.

[Kate nods in agreement, before finishing off her drink.]

Thank you for your help.

[Whether it works out or not, at least they have more answers than they did before.]

[arrested]

[ Alisha has stayed quiet, but no longer. Though that said, maybe she should. ]

Well the whole thing sounds like bullshit to me. I mean who the fuck lets a dragon into their bar. I mean hello?! And then protect the dodgy as fuck deals they've got going on? I mean what the fuck is that about, yeah?

[allaboutme]

[ the drow narrows his eyes at her. "I didn't let a dragon in. Estavan's enemies sent it amid the shipments of tov nectar to try and scare me off from my business with him, weakening his claims by driving his allies away." ]

[theshameofcain]

[Bambi nudges her underneath the table.] Yep. That's exactly what you said, so... We have a lead now. That's more than we had before.

[She sips her drink anxiously.]

[wynn]

[ kate puts her in call to wynn, who is very interested to hear about this 'planar trade consortium' and happy to hear that they have gotten a name, and a motivation for the attacks. he advises that the knights give the drow some time to make good on his word. even if he doesn't pull through, wynn will get some agents on tracking down the location of this 'estavan', so he can begin to figure out what the next phase of operations will be. ]
