Ex-Doctor Of Rhodes Island

Don't Panic

Hey!

Bit of a short chapter, sorry! but it should be the build-up for a longer one next time!

The chapter might feel a bit rushed. Apologies, but I have work in the morning, and I've been told I need more rest. Typical...

A bit of an Info chapter as well as a short time skip!

Let's get back to it.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Farsight was sitting on the roof of the Enclave slums headquarters as he thought about everything that was happening and that happened in the past short weeks.

Three weeks passed since Farsight scolded Agenta and for Mal to inform him of essential blueprints that could not fall into the wrong hands.

Agenta had been very quiet over the past weeks and had spent a fair amount of time on her own; she had a lot on her mind. Farsight had no intention of approaching Agenta while she was like this. It was best to let her sort out her own emotions and problems that had no outside influence.

Agenta would come to find him when the time was right; he was sure of it.

Mal was still far up north with Seneschal constructing their secret project, but due to the cold and Ursus snooping around, construction was currently prolonged. Still, it was moving ahead.

Mal's request for Farsight to retrieve the blueprints she created as a teenager from the Civil War-torn Laterano was a touchy subject for him. However, he mostly understood Mal's persistence.

She described what these weapon platforms could do; it was in the Enclave's best interest to retrieve them at all costs.

He wanted to go, but something was stopping him; call it a gut feeling, but something was telling him that if he went right now, he would only cause more problems and misery to the people living there. Even if Laterano is infighting, his presence will escalate the issues further.

So with great reluctance, he informed Mal that, while it was a priority, he could not go there right now, much to her dismay but with a smile, she told him that she was monitoring the situation and would warn him if the blueprints are even close to being discovered.

The Laterano government that had previously sent people to watch him and gather information had vanished completely. The problems in Laterano and the sudden violence and resentment there have most likely pulled them back to the city.

But if High Haven is correct, then the one known as Mostima is hanging around the Enclave; she has been sighted on multiple occasions near Farsight's location.

Siracusa was another problem; his new Krieg division was ready to march, and mounted scouts sent across Siracusa confirmed everything he and the Enclave knew.

The Siracusan mafia was in total control of the twenty-two city-states, plus all the surrounding towns and villages, All of it concealed by a puppet government at best.

The problem was that Siracusa wasn't a terrible place to live or visit. Everything the mafia was doing was very much on the low key. So the moment the Enclave charged in and started attacking, they would look like violent aggressors.

Farsight needed to expose the mafia for what they were, so he had spies, scouts and 'tourists' gaining anything and everything about the mafia and the shady, immoral decisions they were making to expose them to the world, perhaps even push them to attack the Enclave openly.

Food for thought.

Misha was leading the efforts of the Embassy building now being constructed in the heart of Lungmen. But, much to Farsight's delight, she was already drawing up her plans to deal with the Rat King and the criminal side of Lungmen that had remained surprisingly quiet this whole time.
