“It could mean the end of the world.”
Or something pretty damn close to it.
“Right,” I said.
“Hookwolf has proposed an all-out attack,” Coil spoke for the first time since my arrival. “He wants to gather the more powerful members of his alliance together into an army and attempt to overwhelm the Nine and kill Jack Slash in the chaos.”
Sounds like a plan. A brute force plan that’s not going to work in this story (there’s too much focus on clever solutions over raw strength for that kind of plan to be a satisfying solution, not to mention it seems to completely avoid the main protagonists having an impact on it), but a plan.
So if the Slaughterhouse Nine were to lose this all-vs-all battle, would they all each have a day deducted?
“That won’t work.” Brian shook his head. “These guys specialize in dealing with crowds, and they’re experienced when it comes to that sort of thing.”
Good point.
“Hookwolf believes our local capes are collectively strong enough to do what other groups couldn’t.”
Honestly, I think he just wants to lead an army.
