"A group called the Venatori who doesn't care for the Inquisition. To put it mildly. They caught most of us, but my friend Avery escaped and managed to get help. They got us out." Not quite safe and sound, perhaps, but they didn't actually lose anyone. Under the circumstances, Cosima counts that as a win.
