The Meeting

Pauline: It's been fairly quiet with the VAT since we got back, but when Paddy calls a meeting, I know that's about to change. He presents us with statistics, meant to show that Oakland has an anomalously high death rate. I follow through his logic, even if I don't completely buy his conclusions. At the time, I think it'll be nice to wander around Oakland, chasing snipes, and not get shot at for awhile.

Narrowing Down Suspects

Pauline: The first thing I do is hit Hocus Pocus, the local occult shop. It's cheesy and kind of stupid, but at least they don't look at me funny when I discuss serving Brigid. The owners, Lucien and Kali, are in, and we chat for a bit before getting down to brass tacks: have they seen anything odd around Oakland?

They have- their tarot readings have started coming up with unusual numbers of the same cards, specifically the 5 of Cups and the Emperor. The former is about loss and disappointment, the latter about control and rigidity. I get the raw numbers from them and pass it on to Paddy.
