Two bodies have been found in downtown London, likely the victims of attacks by some sort of Shadow creature. To prevent a panic, the police are investigating the matter as a dog attack and a potential robbery, while slipping the case under the table to Wynn and his Knights to look into further. Whatever did this is big, nasty, and seems to have taken down the victims without their even struggling. For now, the team is splitting up to look into the crime scenes more closely.

[Helen simply hums her agreement. This one is going to be a doozy.]

Could be ritual sacrifice to some kind of Shadowkind god. The Aztecs had to be worshiping one of them under a different name. Maybe whoever it is is back in business.

It also seems a little weird that the Children of Chaos would be worshipping Janus, considering what he represents. Time, endings, and doors don't exactly seem to match up with chaos and mayhem.

[likedillinger]

Janus as a chaos god is an older take on him, though. A lot of that other crap came later.

[daredtobelieve]

If it is a god that carried over from the Shadow world, his true domains could have muddied with time. Or the Children of Chaos are doing this in his name to throw us off their scent.

[She sighs. Trying to make sense of chaotic rituals is hard.]

Can't say I'm big on any of our options if it is a god who's evil and into chaos. Lord of Three Crowns, maybe? [ he frowns, totally just making guesses, clearly. ]

[daredtobelieve]

We should follow the lead with Janus before we start exploring other options. [focus plz]

Let's see what we can dig up on him in the Castle libraries when we get back and go from there.
