When he pushed open the double doors and stepped into the conference room, there were a few looks of surprise.
Interesting. So clearly he’s going to some meeting, but the others at the meeting don’t seem to have known he was coming, despite the opening of the hallway at the oil rig not seeming to be meant to pick up someone else. Did Legend specifically contact the person whose makes that happen?
I’m guessing he’s here to talk about Siberian in some fashion.
“Legend,” the Doctor spoke, “I thought you were occupied in Brockton Bay.”
That’s done, so far.
Also, unsurprisingly at this point, it’s clear that they know each other. More importantly, Legend knows the Doctor. The other way around would be easily explained by Legend’s fame even if they’d never met.
“Jack escaped.”
I suspect Cauldron would be more interested in whether Siberian did. And Shatterbird.
“That’s… really unfortunate,” Alexandria said.

Hi.
They’re all in on this? Is Eidolon here too?
This raises some big questions about Cauldron’s origin and status. Is the whole thing set up by the PRT/Protectorate, or is it just the Triumvirate? Do the North American governments know? Why would they do this, especially considering the company’s willingness to deliberately create villains, including Siberian?
Maybe the Triumvirate didn’t know about the villainous part until Legend saw the Cauldron tattoo on Siberian?
