Simone starts the van when she sees the man leave the farm gate and pulls up next to him.  Putting the window down, she leans a bit out  and says, "Hey, you Devon?  I am Simone and my partner and I would like to talk to you about an expansion of your business.  Do you have some time?"

They are moving.  Looks like we are on the clock.  Nearest entrance it is.

I pop a cram and use the warehouse as an estimate to overlay the map.  Using that I locate the nearest entrance point drive us there and adjust the map to spec.  I pop the trunk and start putting on the chem suit.  Let's get a going then.

Xander takes a look in around in astral space. Try as he might, he cannot separate the signature of the runaway entity from everything else going on inside the Hand of God. 

Things can never be easy, can they. I'm sure you'll have no problem finding her- but nope, got no info on her to give you. Well thanks. I have unmitigated faith in me too. La di da.

"Ok Miss Zen, I'll be going now- hopefully I'll be back with the spirit or barring that, banishing it. No disruption, got it. I'm not perticuliarly fond of the way Horizon goons and Corporate goons in general operate either"

Xander get's out his commlink and sends a quick message including current GSP info: <<@Enigma | Daniel Douglas Homes: Know how much you love keeping tabs on Slamm-O and the rest of those gossip mongers Do me a favor boss. Any chatter on the boards about some female engulfed in flames, shooting flames, or generally burning down things within a couple of klicks or so from my present location, give me a shout out. Much appreciated. .>>

Taking his leave of Zen, Xander walks over to the cleaning lady and says, "Thanks for the help, much appreciated. By the way, there was a young lady causing some bit of a fuss earlier. You didn't happen to see which way she turned when she walked out of here?"

@Simone, Nyx Devon seems a bit agitated... "It is me, but do not get your hopes high, I just finished working and am on my way home.
We can not legally sell to anybody. You need licences and pretty much a lot of bureaucracy, you can get our product from many vendors across the city though. " He said politely.  Looked at you up briefly but did not stop walking.

@Irris, Kynos, Ayato
The nearby sewer exit is locked and covered with plenty of junk, probably on purpose as people here fear the underground, you check a few more nearby sewer entrances and discover the same state. You'll either need to spend a while clearing the entrance or gamble on some further entrance. (you already know that most manholes int he city are not sealed. That phenomena seems unique to this specific area.

@Xander Zen said - she got bored in the middle of the orgy and just left saying she was going to gamble. Everybody were devastated, I think she went to one of the casino's in town.

Moving some trash won't be a problem for me.  I say we get to work.

Xander thanks the cleaning lady as he leaves. He gets on his commlink and requests a cab. He keeps himself amused with a crossword puzzle app- not that he's good at it mind you, just that it passes the time. About a half hour later the cab arrives and he instructs the driver to take him to the nearest casino in town.

@Xander the nearest Casino is the Gates, an heavily secured facility, the place seems business as usual with patrons going on their day to day, the drive takes about an hour. Business are slow at that time, the cabby says "There is this big Holdem tournament at Seward Club perhaps you will enjoy it better there, every serous gambler is going to be there tonight, It is all over the news. "

Enigma tells you "business seems to be usual in the city with nobody burning down buildings and anything."

Xander tells the cabbie to drive to the Stewards club.

<<@Enigma|Daniel Douglas Holmes: Thanks for checking.>>

@Xander you reach the club that is full, and the atmosphere is a buzz. The tournament has already started and would last for the next twelve hours. If there is a powerful spirit in that place she is not obvious to you.  You cannot access the game rooms and it is too late to enroll to the tournament but the games are broadcast in a trid and most people watch them like sports.

"Allright, let's remove that shit. We can use the car to drag the bigger things away. Just need your tow rope."
Kynos readily started to remove the debris.
"Once we are done, you can guide your car to park on the manhole cover. That way the locals can't complain that we opened them up for zombie attacks. Oh, right, I should mention that there are probably zombies down there who try to use some dread power on you. Try not to scream or run away or piss yourself."

Simone is a bit confused.  She had thought there was an appointment scheduled to talk to the man.  "Hey, we were told we had an appointment to speak to you about this.  It is a good walk back to town, so why not climb in and you can talk with my partner while I drive you somewhere?"

@Kynos, Irris, Ayato As you clear the the manhole and make it accessible you can feel that people eye you with hostility from the windows, some of them are even sporting large guns, sniper rifles and the sort. For the moment nobody seems to shoot at you and after about half a hour the manhole is clear. There is quite a commotion under it, clearly a lot of movement but you are uncertain about the kind of movement. You understand this much, once you drop to the sewers you are not going to be alone.

Kynos donned his helmet and took hung his rifle readily accessible into its sling. Than he produced a flash bang from his pockets:
"Seems like there is a party down there. Time for a bit of sun shine."
