Session 2 1/29/12

The session begins with the group standing in Kesto's shop. A team of 7 Mercykillers has confronted them inside the store and is claiming the group has killed a Factotum, and that they are under arrest, very unusual for Mercy killers. Ferrus attempts to surrender, not noticing that something is off. Lucius overhears the gnome tell Tanis that somthing is up and the group is about to get "peeled", and together Lucius and Tanis draw weapons.

4 enemies are quickly dispatched, and Lucius chases them out into the street, where he is jumped by 3 additional Hive gangers. Ferrus blocks the door, attempting to let the "Mercy Killers" retreat in recognition of their authority. Zeus attempts to run outside, but is blocked by Ferrus. Goddard is able to make it outside, and eventually Hera "removes" Ferrus from the door way with her whip.

The remaining Mercy Killers and gangers are dispatched, save one which Lucius knocked out with the hilt of his blade. The citizens of Sigil flee, and soon a detachment from the Harmonium comes to investigate. After a brief exchange, the leader of the Harmonium patrol pulls out a wooden dowel and taps one of the dead Mercy killers. His armor distorts and re-arranges, revealing the armor and markings of a cult called The Weaver. Admiring our handy work, we are invited to join the Harmonium by the patrols leader, and told to show up to their base of operations in the Lady's Ward, the Barracks. The members of the Harmonium then take the unconscious prisoner into custody and leave.

Soon after, Ferrus decides to head out and join up with the Harmonium. Lucius took the opportunity to expand his knowdlage of re-ascension in the Gnome's massive library. Ubeth-Ur and Krath took the leader of the fake Mercy Killers body to the actual Mercy Killers HQ.
