Why do they want the Council’s hole?
In the Eastern Grove Kadon and Zuko interview the survivors, with Scarlet’s story proving inconsistent with her apparent actions. Still, it’s discovered that the squirrel girls are demiurges, so they begin crafting the needed Alchemical charm. In Nexus Ioni and Mnemia learn that one of the bombs did go off and that the council has put the city on lock down. Interrogation of the prisoner reveals that their mistress’ name is Katrina, the same name Lucy used when she betrayed the Circle in Luthe. Moving to the underworld they secure the craft the attackers used to reach Nexus from Luthe, but decide to not move on Luthe just yet.
