“Who was the other, at Coil’s?”

“Coil isn’t saying.  We think, with Tattletale’s educated guess helping us out, that Hookwolf might have been another possible recruit.”

Don’t look at me, Taylor. I wouldn’t know. *shifty eyes*

“And at the PRT offices?  Shadow Stalker?”

Heh, she would jump to that guess.

Of course, Taylor doesn’t know what Regent did to Shadow Stalker. Maybe Grue’s about to inform her that Shadow Stalker hasn’t been seen in town for a while?

“As good a guess as any.  We’re not sure where she wound up.”

Fair.

“So what does this mean?”

“It means Hookwolf is calling together a meeting of the local powers that be.  Crook, criminal, mercenary and warlord.  We have to decide if we want to go.”

Ooh, another villain get-together á là Hive! I like this.
