[CLOSED] a prelude

[minrathousian]

WHO: Atticus Vedici + Ser Coupe + the Division heads
WHAT: Atticus discusses his findings with the Division heads.
WHEN: Forward-dated to late Harvestmere.
WHERE: An office within the Gallows.
NOTES: Please keep all responses to one thread!

The majority of the magister's notes (parchment, books, letters, translated and transcribed missives) have been delivered to the Inquisition's division heads in advance of this meeting, but the evidence relating to the most alarming piece of intelligence--that Venatori agents have infiltrated the Inquisition's ranks and seek to obtain classified data--that is information he has kept to himself. He must time the playing of that particular hand well... namely by delivering it to them himself.

This is quite the gamble, he knows, but great risk has never been a deterrent. (If it were, perhaps he might not have needed to devote time this month to convalescing from a concussion.)

Accompanied by Ser Coupe, Atticus steps into the designated office, and looks from his research materials on the centre table to the faces seated on the other side of it.

(It requires more willpower than he might have anticipated not to let his eyes linger on Petrana.)

Comments

[ipseite]

If Petrana disagrees regarding the nature of Wren Coupe's work, she doesn't protest the implicit dismissal - glances at her with a short nod, and anything else they need to say on the matter will be done elsewhere. As with much of the rest of this.

“Our thanks, Ser Coupe,”

which Atticus is not entitled to for the great generosity of acting in his own best interests as a prisoner of war.

There is much else to do. They had best get on with it.
