In less than twenty-four hours, everything has turned on its head.

A Knight and her allies were kidnapped by Iscariot agents for execution in Rome, barely escaping with their lives.

A mission meant to free one Knight from the influence of a dark god succeeded - at the price of another's life.

A simple recon mission at a Keijen Blade concert nearly led to two Knights committing mind-controlled suicide in front of an eager crowd.

Several Knights went to see Draken Crombe, leader of the Church of the Lord's Humanity, speak in person, and learned just how sinister his religion's dogma is.

A call from Sir Hathaway alerted Wynn to the escape of the doppelganger from the Knight's dungeons, an escape perhaps aided by Elena Gilbert.

A demigod interrupted what might have been a simple smash and grab retrieval of an artifact.

And most horrific of all, in the middle of the night, hundreds of Shadowkind in New York City awoke, and walked in a mindless trance down to the Hudson River to drown themselves. Only the quick thinking and combined efforts of the Knights present and their allies prevented all of them from succeeding.

Beset on all sides, a dark time awaits for the Knighthood - who were already suffering from the capture of Dragon's Claw Sir Thomas Bancroft at the hands of their long time enemy Dimitris Sarandis of Andres Isle.

In times such as these, the light can be difficult to find. Hope itself seems somewhere just out of reach.

[Archer scowls at the idea he's on a plane with the ability to be drained dry. They need better accommodations next time.]

Do I know you? [Archer was only half-conscious when they picked up all the new crew... He rubs his head, and brushes some glitter off his pants.] More importantly, have you seen a unicorn around here? I'm like 75% sure I rode one last night...

[likedillinger]

Dude. I think I want some of what you were having.

[calling from wherever he is bcuz i assume listen 15 is good enough on this tiny ass plane especially with ... archer's loud ass voice...] No, that actually happened.

[isisagent]

No shit? WOO! [Archer shouts at the top of his lungs...]

God, why am I so amazing? I'm like a modern-day Odysseus, or something. Killin' minotaur, riding unicorns... [Archer tosses a peanut across the plane at Finnick. Because, fuck peanuts.] Fuck yeah!
