Vienna, Austria

  Sahu is sitting in a room with several monitors with Eoontaq, Centus, Darsah and Iehn. The room's lights are dimmed and the windows are tinted

  Sahu: So I was tracking that mysterious plane and now it's gone, like it's turned off it's radar and sensors.

  Centus: And you think that plane is from Sinners Sextant?

  Sahu: Indeed

  Eoontaq: My main question is what the heck are they after?

  Centus: Sinners Sextant isn't after what Department X had, someone else was.

  Sahu: Anyone who knows what Department X has is a certified threat

  Iehn: So, why am I here? I don't know anything about Sinners Sextant?

  Sahu: You ran into an old Department X experiment 7 years ago if our records aren't mistaken.

  Iehn: Do you mean Project Telltale and Lark2n?

  Sahu: I do

  Iehn: Well that doesn't mean I know everything about everything when it comes to Department X

  Centus: A little bit is better than nothing, we need every information advantage

  The room falls silent

  Darsah: If I may speak?

  Sahu: You may

  Darsah: Spade was once a member of Sinners Sextant, they might know something

  Sahu: They were?

  Darsah: It's a part of their history they want to forget

  Sahu: Alright, I think they're in Dubrovnik right now, I'll send them something that says we're on our way

  Centus: So is that all

  Suddenly, a large whirring noise is heard outside the building

  Sahu: Centus, open the window

  Centus hits a button to open the window revealing a mysterious plane flying towards them

  Iehn: They're gonna crash that right into us?

  Eoontaq: Not on my watch

  Eoontaq uses their special protractor to deflect the plane away from the building, making drift throughout the city

  Centus: So what now?

  Sahu: We're going to chase it

  Darsah: Sounds impossibly difficult the plane is not only faster than us but also has a headstart

  Iehn: I mean what else can we do?

  Sahu: That's right, now let's get on the roof

  This tale has been unlawfully obtained from Royal Road. If you discover it on Amazon, kindly report it.

  The five of them climb onto the roof

  Darsah: Centus?

  Centus: Yeah?

  Darsah: Mind if you help me out here, I can't run the best

  Centus: Sure I can.

  Eoontaq: According to the course I sent the plane on, it should have ended up over there

  Eoontaq points southwest

  Sahu: Alright team let's get moving

  Darsah: This is gonna hurt isn't it

  Begin Vienna Rooftops

  When you are 15% of the way across, a group of mercenaries in marked uniforms show up

  Sinners Sextant Member: Alright, we've got orders from Ghice to knock you dead

  Centus: I'd appreciate it if you simply laid down your weapon and revealed the details of your attack on Department X?

  Sinners Sextant Member: No, I think I'd rather follow Ghice to the end

  Centus: Well I can't say that I'm gonna regret what I'm about to do

  Sahu: Take the lead Centus

  Fight against Sinners Sextant

  When you win

  Iehn: Sinners Sextant is pretty loyal to Ghice huh

  Sahu: They will stop at nothing to carry out their will from what I know

  Darsah: I wonder what they want out of all this

  Eoontaq: Only one way to find out

  Resume Vienna Rooftops

  When you are 45% of the way across

  Darsah: My one leg is killing me

  Eoontaq: Don't lose it, you only got the one

  Iehn: I wonder why I can't just fix it?

  Darsah: It's an unfortunate side effect of the accident

  Iehn: Darn

  Resume Vienna Rooftops

  When you're 75% of the way across, another group of Sinners Sextant mercenaries appear

  Sinners Sextant Member: Alright do you wanna go silently or noisily?

  Centus: Are you gonna answer your own question?

  Sinners Sextant Member: Noisily it is

  Sahu: Well you heard them

  Fight the Sinners Sextant group

  When you win

  Centus: I hardly enjoy the slaughter

  Eoontaq: You've been doing it the longest so I don't imagine you do

  Centus: Infinity is such thing that makes you ponder

  Resume Vienna Rooftops

  When you complete the section, there's a dropdown into a park where The Plane has crashed near a manhole

  The party drops down to inspect it

  Darsah: OUCH

  Eoontaq: We probably should have taken the streets

  Iehn: Moot point

  Centus: So are we all in agreement that we now have to go in the sewers

  Darsah: That's gonna suck

  Sahu: It's part of the job, you HAVE to go down in there

  Darsah: I still get to complain

  Sahu: You don't get paid to complain

  Iehn: Uh shut up I'm going down

  Eoontaq: Hey wait for the rest of us

  Centus: What it must feel like to be so young……

  Sahu: Sentinental geezers

  The party enters the city's sewers

  Darsah: Smells awful

  Eoontaq: How else would it smell?

  Darsah: Preferably not awful

  Sahu: Do you just want to chit chat or are we gonna find Ghice?

  Darsah: Fine let's find the fellow

  Begin Vienna Sewers

  When you get 55% of the way through, Centus notices a discarded energy core on the floor

  Centus: Who would have this belonged to?

  Sahu: It might be for Ghice's suit

  Iehn: They have a power core?

  Darsah: I have a poor understanding of it, but I believe it runs on a magic source of somekind

  Eoontaq: I'll look into this later when I have the time

  Sahu: Looking for a weakness is a good idea in case we don't catch him here

  Resume Vienna Sewers

  When you finish the map, Ghice is in the proccess of repairing their suit

  Ghice: Oh hello Century Corps, what brings you to me

  Centus: You tried to crash a plane into us

  Ghice: Well old man, I didn't want you to find Sinners Sextant, as we're doing a very important job

  Sahu: What could be so important you'd try to attack the elusive Department X?

  Ghice: The origin of man

  Eoontaq: Pardon?

  Ghice: Every child leaves the womb when they are born, I'm looking for Humanity's birthplace

  Darsah: The Garden of Eden?

  Iehn: That's just a myth!

  Ghice: It's not and the object we stole from Department X is one of the five portal batteries that have to be used to open the way there.

  Centus: I vaguely remember The Garden

  Darsah: What do you even want in The Garden?

  Ghice: It's what my client wants

  Darsah: No….

  Sahu: What's bad?

  Ghice: You'll see

  Darsah: You can't find The Adamite Key! It was lost for a reason

  Ghice: Well, I'd listen to you but my time is up

  Ghice throws an explosive that throws up a shield of goopy waves and escapes

  Sahu: Damn it we lost him

  Darsah: We need to return to base and let The Grandmaster know?

  Centus: The Adamite Key cannot be found
