The day has finally arrived: the 2015 Grammy's gather together musical talent at the top of the food chain, which means that NOVA Records will be well represented at this year's ceremony. Unfortunately, this includes performances from Keijen Blade's band, Heatless Passion, and Nadia Reichenov's, Derere, both of whom are working for "Chad Becksworth", aka Draken Crombe, head of the Shadowkind-hating cult, the Church of the Lord's Humanity.  Equipped with some sort of ability to hypnotize large crowds with subliminal messages, Wynn fears what lies beneath Keijen's intended performance, and is sending his Knights to shut down the broadcast, to prevent that message from being spread to millions of viewers worldwide.

Meanwhile, the gang finally has a chance to see Rafael Giovanni again - but what he's been up to in the months since they last saw him, and how his reunion with Buffy will go, remains to be seen.

Several of the Knights have decided that this is their last chance as well to try and break Nadia free from Keijen's influence, now that they've learned the truth about him - that Keijen is in fact Kel'in'hrae, sadistic son of the Nightmare God Malaak'a, likely working to free his father from the prison Sehanine had created for him.  The prison sealed by the relic that the team has been chasing for years, believing it to be an immortality-granting talisman of great power.

The truth, it seems, was worse than they could have imagined.  

One step at a time, however, and stopping the signal is first priority on Failboat's to do list for now.  With an actual plan under their belts this time, maybe this is the turning point they've been waiting for...

[That tension is something she'd never noticed until it was gone, Rose's own expression mildly curious for just a moment before a smile settles easily on her lips. There's people she'll fight alongside and have faith that they'll do what needs to be done but that's not the same as trusting somebody to have your back. She can count those people on one hand and honestly couldn't say when, in her mind, Alainn had become one of them, only that the reply had come so easily that she knew it was true.

The wine for after comments brings a warmth to her smile, Rose bobbing her head.] That's something Dean and I did, bought a bottle to share after Andres. [After they'd finished things with Kyp.] I'm liking this tradition.

Well, if it's one ye don't mind sharing, I think it'd be a tradition worth carrying on. [With another chuckle she adds] And once things settle down a wee bit, that girls night needs to happen.
