- When it comes to krewes like Muse, you snooze, you lose.
- Say that three times fast.
- Do you think the reactor disaster will affect the farms and greenhouses?
- Crops are still growing, if that's what you mean.
- Yes, but are they still edible?
- Let's leave some out for the skritt. If there's a sudden increase in filthy vermin carcasses, we'll know there's a problem.
- My krewe's on the verge of a major discovery in the field of sensometric inspeculation.
- No kidding? Mine too. Except we're doing sensometric inspeculation with a focus on fungal superbodies.
- Really? Fungal superbodies? Interesting. Excuse me. I think I hear my lab manager calling me.
- Krewe Researcher
- Come no further! Identify yourself or be considered hostile!
- Easy, my alacritous friend. I'm seeking a krewe worthy of my talents.
- I recommend you keep seeking, stranger. We've had too many unfamiliar faces poking around lately.
- I have credentials. Surely my potential contribution outweighs the risk of inter-lab espionage?
- That's the least of our worries. Inquest krewes are close by and busy. We take no chances. Move along.
- Do you have a recruiter? I'm the best around. Sign with me, and I'll place you in a top-of-the-line krewe.
- I'm trying to decide. I have a contact in Hydrone Unit. That's a fine krewe. I may not need a recruiter.
- Oh, no no no. You're going about it all wrong and cheating yourself of many possibilities.
- Don't disrespect the Eternal Alchemy by choosing the first krewe that smiles at you. Let me show you what could be.
- My sister was on one of the reactor krewes. I haven't heard from her since it blew.
- They should build all reactors in the marsh, where only krait and hylek are at risk.
- Trader
- College of Statics, eh? Dynamics graduates tend to fare better as traders. No offense.
- None taken...yet. Why do you say that?
- You Statics build too well. To stay in business, you need to keep customers coming back.
- And the College of Dynamics manages that?
- Oh, absolutely. They practically invented the concept of planned obsolescence.
- The Inquest is too politically powerful. The Arcane Council will never tolerate a direct assault on their facilities.
- The Council can't stop us, they can only punish us afterwards.
- If we eliminate every trace of the Inquest's presence here, the Council can't even do that.
- Excellent point. Plus, any designs or material we acquire in the process is pure dividend.
- I gave her the message. She'll be "you know where" at "you know when."
- Good. Did she ask any questions?
- No. She still doesn't see the big picture, and that's for the best. Her life depends on it.
- Krewe Apprentice
- Krewe Researcher
- I swear, I heard him say, "If lightning went against fire, which would win?" The discussion then lasted an hour.
- How ridiculous.
- That's what I thought. It's immediately obvious to anyone with a brain that lightning would extinguish fire.
- So, there we were, and all I could think to do was pull out my septipincers and latch onto its nose with them. It screamed and ran.
- I've heard this story. It doesn't make you the foremost authority on septipincer techniques.
- Of course, it does. Apart from my years of study, I've had in-the-field experience. Do NOT discount my expertise!
- I innovated the appropriate proportioning between locomotoration and inertial integrity.
- Shh. Not in front of the uninitiated. Wait until we arrive at the lab.
- Traveler
- Medical Attendant
- Medical Attendant
- How did this disaster happen?
- Keep your voice down. There are Inquest agents everywhere.
- You can't blame everything on saboteurs.
