FIRST INVESTIGATION

[bathymetric]

To say this week has been intense is, generally, an understatement. Friday dawns like any other day. Some of you may have guessed that something like this would happen. It's not a difficult assumption to make, considering what's at stake. Mayor Fontaine has come forward with clear intent, and maybe expecting twenty-five people to stay strong against it is too much. Or maybe not! You never know!

...For those of you not entirely convinced, however, those visible traces of blood in the elevator might speak differently.

[Brett sucks in a deep breath, grateful for the sturdy warmth of touch. Distantly, he hates that he's making this kind of display in front of everyone, but that's something to be neatly tucked away later. For now:]

Thanks.
