Absent: Jane Irwin (Cael), Haelra Vayn (Basil), Lyndi Fletcher (Aslene)

The team splits up. Some Raptors remain to further talk with Rixa Galdan about the Circus Divergia. She introduces Vae'gaun, a mutant with a special connection to adintech. Captain Lashell Kinton of Farwatch contacts the team. She apologizes for the surveillance of the Fort and reports that a Brotherhood agent had penetrated Archangel. Kinton offers to share the location of a Brotherhood relay station under Chicago, which was part of the ritual that raised the mechadead hydra. Together with Vae'gaun, the team enters the lab, defeats the defenders, and frees a gold dragon named Olbenym. Farwatch destroys the lab.

== Further Discussion with Rixa ==

* Vince's office
** Vince making and serving hot chocolate
** Proud Flame politely refuses. With a shudder.
** Cadeos: Studies the liquid in Vince's hand before accepting it and listens, slowly sipping the drink cautiously.
** Rixa is recovering from the enchantment breaking
* Rixa continues sharing her knowledge and speculation about the Circus
** Ordin appears beside Haelra
** Ordin Zarn: I joined the Circus as a musician, in my quest to find out what happened to my father (Tundin Zarn).
** Ordin wanders off, muttering
* Lyndi, Jane, and Haelra recalled to the Fort, take Bron
** Magic of mechadead ritual was backtracked to Caterina, off world, probably beyond Breakwater, thus outside the Closeness
** They will work with Brother Iron on tracking down Caterina
* Rixa's senses could be ridden by another member of the Circus
** They know who you are and what you're trying to do
** They set up the ritual to raise the hydra as a publicity stunt
** Now that the enchantment is broken, we have true privacy
* Rixa cautions about Vae'gaun
** He has studied the Circus
** He has an intuitive understanding of adintech, can sense it
* Vince texts Vae'gaun, brings him in
** Draco reports Vae'gaun doesn't fit with any taxonomy
** Ractor rumbles in Cyrus' mind: There is a great evil beneath the city. Vae'gaun can help you find it and end it
* Rictus reports that he's trying to isolate the metaphysical frequencies used by the Anti-Magic Shell generator
* Rixa further speculates
** Slippage: Circus logo and pictures
** Brotherhood of the Shroud collaborating with elements from the League of the Rusted Crown
** Mechadead is the next iteration of adintech
** Vae'gaun snarls quietly at the mention of the League.
** Cyrus Riggs: Cyrus slowly glides over to Proud, and exaggeratedly drinks his hot chocolate next to him.
** Proud Flame ughs at Cyrus.
** Vae'gaun steps to Rixa and gently pats her shoulder with one hand, a stilted motion of comfort. He remains silent as Cyrus takes the call.
** Cadeos: has finished his hot chocolate and exchanges a glance of disgust with Proud.
** Proud Flame rolls his eyes. Muttering. "They knew about the Hydra. You know they did."
** Vae'gaun glances at Proud. "Governments are not to be trusted."
** Vae'gaun is quietly amused.

== Farwatch Calls ==

* Captain Lashell Kinton contacts R3M
** Lyndi unavailable, instead Cyrus
** Video call
** We reported that our systems were compromised
** This has hurt our relationship
** Why surveillance? There aren't many Unbound. Raptor Blue… that many Unbound, working together, can have a significant impact
** Brotherhood spy was blocking reports about the hydra from reaching Farwatch command
** Cyrus non-committal about R3M's response to Farwatch's admissions
* Believe you're doing good work. As a show of good faith, an opportunity to collaborate
** The signal was routed through a location under Chicago, before being beamed to the Indiana Harbor site
** Farwatch is prepared to share the location with you, provided you share any intel you find
** Regardless, my orders are to beam an explosive directly to the location within the next 90 minutes
** At your command, we'll soften it up with a targeted intraplanar electromagnetic strike from Archangel
* Draco: (Chain) My dragon soul, Tolayn, is restless. Something about this mission is meaningful to her.

== Into the Undercity ==

* Vince gives directions to the team
** Through subway, into undercity
** Proud Flame will enter the subway with Grimclaw in-hand.
** Vae'gaun activates his Massive Claws in both hands.
* DM: > Proud finds a motion sensor, disables it
* DM: > Draco enters the network
* When team is in position, they call down the electromagnetic strike

== Into the Lab ==

* Sophisticated underground facility with advanced technology
* Hostiles include
** Corp Troopers
** Corp Officers
** Brotherhood of the Shroud cultists
** Mechadead Leopards
** Mechadead Ape
* Team sneaks in
* Systems going haywire from EM strike

== Battle in the Lab ==

* Proud finds the control room, throws a grenade, takes out cultists and troopers
* Battle ensues
** Team disables an officer and trooper, take them prisoner
** Vae'gaun uses disturbing mutation abilities
** Cyrus and Cadeos fight well
** Proud runs fast a lot
* Proud finds a prisoner
** Olbenym, a female young gold dragon trapped in a human body sealed in a technomagic shell
** Kneeling atop a computer core jumble (like Draco's stack) (Lyndi and Aunne were there)
** Dragon souls among the team are very upset by this
** Proud releases Olbenym from her bonds and Cyrus stabilizes her
* Team vanquishes the remaining hostiles
* Draco mines the computers for intel
* Team sweeps the lab
* Vae'gaun loots the best tech from the technomagic stack
* Team evacs with Olbenym and their prisoners
* Farwatch destroys the lab
