Following the White Rabbit

[Sage]

Sage followed along, listening and following. He kept tabs on Nox's journey through the tunnels, and his location after exiting. He'd been in one place for a long time. Red tape and bueracracy were likely chaffing him. Sage didn't try to use Nox's wallet to hack into the nearby cameras or systems. He could, but that would tarnish Nox's reputation -- and he had some pretty big connections Sage didn't dare burn. Who the fuck has personal conversations with the King of the Known world?

Sage caught some of what Raffe told Cruz about Ezekiel. There was little he could find on the man, he couldn't offer up much. But that didn't stop Sage from digging deeper. Just because you were underground didn't mean you didn't leave a footprint. Even Nox with his good connections left a trail -- though at present his footprint grew everyday he was no longer Atharim. He didn't care to hide. But when you know the Ascendancy why would you?

"I still find it hard to believe Nox works at a club like Kallisti."

Cruz rolled his eyes. "Not surprising in the least."

Cruz was showing his aristocracy and Sage didn't call him on it. Things like that might get him hurt here though. But Cruz had one thing most people didn't -- he could weild the power of the gods and had been trained by Nox. And Nox prided himself on being deadly -- even if he preached otherwise.

"Just watch your manners in here." Sage advised his friend. Sage moved closer to Raffe and leaned in to whisper. "I checked the cameras where the camp used to be -- the fires have died down and Nox says the tunnels are monster free. Killed every last beastie. You can tell whoever might care. I can show the feeds if you need."
