There is something strange, an abandoned train station. It looks like there was a fight or a riot, but no one will talk.

Have you seen a symbol of a broken chain?

[abide]

They arrested someone in St. Murtel who was wearing it. I think it's worth checking out if you've got a few hours.

[ Or more. Steve doesn't know what to expect at this point. ]

[seeingscarlet]

Just for wearing it? That is like home, when it was worst.

We need to find out who they are, what they want.

[Well, you saw the old riot footage. Count her in.]

[abide]

There was more to it than that. [ But he's not entirely sure what considering he'd gotten there in the middle of it. ] We'll find them. Our first priority is getting as much on them as we can.

Meet me in the cargo bay in ten. We'll head out from there.

text -> action(?)

[seeingscarlet]

I will be there.

[And she is, perched on a crate dressed in one of her casual outfits. No red today, surprisingly, but her accessory game is as on point as ever.]

action!

[abide]

[ And Steve being Steve is about five minutes too early than when he told Wanda to meet him, which gives him time to find a transporter and talk with someone in Navigation to set it directly for Emiri. At least it's automatic, for the most part. Still, after all that, he moves over to meet her, and it's good she's not in red. Less conspicuous that way, Steve's own clothes relatively plain as well. He does miss his jacket though. And his bike. ]

Glad you could make it. [ He gives an absent sort of nod toward the transporter. ] You ready?

action!

[seeingscarlet]

[She hops off and nods, starts making her way over. The ship is really not the place she wants to be right now.]

Why Harashan?

[abide]

[ They'll have plenty of time away from the ship as soon as they get this transporter going. Steve falls into line beside her when she meets him. ] Someone asked me to take a look. If we've got time, we should check out the other cities too.

[ Especially St. Murtel, see if they can get into that lab. ]

[seeingscarlet]

I still have the address of the station, if you want to see it.

Avelle seems...normal. There was a little trouble, but no different than anywhere else. [There's a slight hesitation, but Steve is on the (very) short list of people she trusts enough to accompany her there] I haven't been to St. Murtel.

[abide]

[ He steps onto the transporter with her and waits for the door to close before he answers, taking one of the seats in the back. The ride down can get pretty bumpy. ]

Harashan first then. If anything's changed, we'll know about it a lot sooner than the others. [ And if not-- ] Splitting up would cover more ground, but I don't want you going into St. Murtel if you don't have to. [ Steve doesn't like it either, but he'd go regardless. It just makes him, well... not happy to know they might be experimenting on people there. ]

[seeingscarlet]

I don't think anyone has been there since the fight. If something has changed, we should pay attention.

[Wanda moves back as well, keeping her voice low. It probably wouldn't be good if someone overheard them.]

So you would go alone? No. [She shakes her head.] I will be all right if we stay together.
