October
October arrives, though it's hard to shake off the thoughts that September left spinning around your head. Anaru Katariki is alive. And you're sure that MetaHuman's shareholders would look on you most favorably if you were to deliver him into their hands.
You're glad to have to attend October's staff meeting. It's a welcome distraction from any other decisions you have to make right now.
You arrive at the Nostradamus Room. It's the first time you've been back here since June, when Randy McGinty's appearance sucked you through time, wrecking the meeting room in the process. The room has since been repaired and refurbished, with a new, cheery tone. It looks quite different from before.
Not least because Electra and Claudette have pushed the meeting table to one side of the room, and drawn a long, oblong heptagram in charcoal on the floor.
You raise an eyebrow.
"There's a very good reason for this," says Electra.
