Rafa:I don't know if they're kind of do two things that I would like to know. But one would be where are those people but mostly it's kind of who are those people because only thing that I noticed that Ariadne is kind of the the avatar of the underworld. I don't have much more info on her. Okay.
Snyder’s Return:So from so from a mythological standpoint, Ariadne was, was is was, I guess the wife of Dionysus, who infamously famously mythological. I'm not sure what the credit terming is gave Theseus the wall of the unbreakable ball of thread to lead him out of the miners, almost labyrinth. Yes, therefore, is known as a quite well known figure and sought after sort of mystical guide, when that leads you down into the city itself, is down, beyond not be on street level as such. But that underworld that subculture of riffs who are very much aware of each other's existence, and Ariadne, from what you're, you're searching for found able to suppress the genius tech supports aggressive attempts to sort of track an infamous hacker such as yourself and the rest of the hacktivist group, you're able to find out that she is pretty much a guide of and best way of putting it a cryptic figure of information that can provide information about powerful avatars, Guardians of the city, a little known organisation that pops up for the first time in your searches known as gatekeepers. This seems to be this seems to be a, a cloak of a, like you were or Iona for example, where they disguise over their true self like, like you do. She appears to to everyone in the city, as the room has grown as a little grey haired, you know, middle aged woman, but really, she is so much more to be invited, or to be contacted by Ariadne is to be brought into a part of secrecy within the city that few get getting in contact with and become a part of.
Dr. Henry Edwards:That's great. So she basically would be a broker. of sorts. Yes.
Rafa:Yeah. Okay, that is amazing. BRAFA will, kind of the whale A little bit in his own thoughts and have have a strange feeling of excitement. Because excitement and fear because he kind of understands what the position and even what this symbolic meaning towards him specifically means. But he will sit up, or he will leave his chair kind of straight up his his jacket, and he will go towards the door and try to find
Snyder’s Return:Ariadna All right, as you make your way out into the A you just stepping out into the city in any way in particular, it's only fair to ask,
Rafa:yes, yeah, I'll just kind of open the door to a place that is fairly close to wherever the this underworld is, but I'll go through the front door, like I'll not go directly into this, this displace, I'll kind of go to the street level and work my way down as a sign of good faith more or less
Snyder’s Return:or respect was rough and nowhere the entrance to this and when I say entrance, I mean underworld as in everything still happens in the city, it's not necessarily subterranean, there is just a okay a thin layer of society that that is continuing under the noses of the sleepers effectively,
Rafa:I see I thought that the information that you gave me kind of disclosed the location
Snyder’s Return:you would need to find the entrance still okay or someone to guide you to a a location for acquainted by this under society effectively.
Rafa:I am looking here in my actors knowledge contacts. In any area in the underworld, as to representation I have a Helen Troncoso maybe she's a very she's a vigilante. I don't know if she rift I haven't Delia I have
Snyder’s Return:Yes, Alan Tron skirt Tron. Tron Costco, Casa. CASA is a rift, you could contact some of the few of the others. I mean, there's a there's an old favourite of yours. They're in the people of interest. It all depends on who you want to talk to.
Rafa:Yeah, well, by the list of people that I have. I think this one may be the most interesting one. So I'll, I'll text her before going out. Really, I'll text her and say, Hey, Alan, you've got some time. And I'll kind of already be on my way to her place.
Snyder’s Return:The response you get back before we shift back to the good doctor is she will meet you when she finishes work at the qualia which is a taco place. Taco and spaces very
Rafa:well. I'm waiting for you there.
Snyder’s Return:Right message sent and received. Doctor you have emerged, hopefully in showered, at least from the shoe is below helix labs. What do we find you doing?
Dr. Henry Edwards:The doctor is in his office, replacing his damaged tire is quietly contemplating the satisfaction with which he destroyed the monster without understanding it at all. Which is odd for him normally, knowledge is what drives him passing up any opportunity to learn more would be anathema to him but the visceral disgust and pity airy, he felt it seeing the thing has caught him entirely by surprise. And yeah, he feels equal parts ashamed for acting so out of base impulse and also more info over, if not the life of the creature necessarily because he doesn't even necessarily think of it as a person. Then at least the knowledge he could have gained. If he had been more restrained in his dealings with it.
Snyder’s Return:All you are absorbing, processing, and dealing with all of this. Latoya sort of comes to your door and sort of just wraps on the doorframe very gently and sort of stands and waits to be addressed.
Dr. Henry Edwards:The doctor takes a long few moments to notice that is one of his deputy directors is at the door for he or shakes himself out of his fairly self centred introspection. And it's up to her that he gestures to the head on his desk, tattered neck and all says, I resolved our sewer disruption, and I brought you a present. Hopefully you can learn a thing or two from it.
Snyder’s Return:It's your MC Adam here, just taking a break from the case momentarily to let you know about our great friends in the tabletop role playing game community and the TTRPG family. So the following is a short trailer for one of our many friends. Don't check them out. Follow the links in the description below to go and give the show and listen and engage with them and engage with us. We'd love to have you back as the cases continue to progress. Speaking of which, let's get back to the action.
Potions & Pot Pourri:Potions and popery a Dungeons and Dragons Variety Show podcast where two gal pals Keisha and Kayla talk about a variety of topics including discussions, Wizards of the Coast has tried recently to change the mechanics but I think the biggest thing they did was release Tosh was called with everything right that like really changed the way that people could make their characters live plays we call it the tracker tried to kill Claude He already killed some of the household guards. We did everything we could to try and save him but the tracker unfortunately got got to him before we could we took care of the trackers so as always go down by Joseph over
Potions & Pot Pourri Guest:interviews. If you're not having fun with your character, I'm not gonna make you play your character. You have to figure out why is your current character leaving and why is this new character
Potions & Pot Pourri:and so much more potions and popery? Find us wherever you get your podcasts
Dr. Henry Edwards:she
Snyder’s Return:casts a long eye over a shall we say fully appraising the state of it. And before she goes to lift it, she turns to you and says I think this is more more Rennes owes remit this one's a bit too beaten for for my tastes. The information will be available or the same trust runs or implicitly. But the information will be made available to us. And to you. Of course, Dr. Edwards, as soon as Renzo has has finished
Dr. Henry Edwards:his process, complete shrugs and he looks to the tissue with momentary uncertainty and says, and how did your meeting go? With the good chairman.
Snyder’s Return:The chairman loves to sell his own self importance. I've working through Dr. Adams as previous arrangements we have agreed to move some of our set can rate stalk onto onto his consumer shelves through our various networks? All aboveboard in that respect, though, he did have a strange request, which, which pricked my ears up, but said he was interested if, if our equipment or if we had something available to help him find his daughter, Lily. There are a strange request in the middle of a business meeting, but this was very much not a fatherly concerned. Request. Strange gentleman chairman. Shall
Dr. Henry Edwards:I see? Well, that and I think we could offer our assistance to a degree.
Snyder’s Return:I'll see what information we can glean from them. One of the things Dr. Stevenson found instead he was stroking after his son for a day or so needed, needed a personal day, he's got the leaves to take. He's got the time off, owed, so we've just chalked it up to two sort of days off. But we're expecting him back in the office, possibly tomorrow, the day after, he'll be back soon.
Dr. Henry Edwards:Excellent. While you are waiting for the results of that? I have some concerns about our dear reliable Mr. Hyde. main note, there is some conspicuous resemblance to our sewer bound friend.
Snyder’s Return:My son has too much energy, I need to punch anyway. I'll deal with that in a minute.
Dr. Henry Edwards:A young boy with too much energy,
Snyder’s Return:no shock and or horror at such revelations of inflammation. She gives the head a second look before putting in her oversized case for such an occasion. And she she gives you a almost a deadpan look, as she says, from what I'm understanding from Dr. Adams herself. If you catch my drift, and she taps her neck, I think this one was the first. And what we have running around in BODYARMOR is second or third generation. I believe our Mr. Hyde has a doppelganger elsewhere in the city. Dr. Ellen has managed to keep that information quite well hidden. I've took the liberty of cracking open a few more of her files to see if I can locate our Mr. Hyde's brother, she kind of screws her face up looking at you sideways as though looking for some sort of
Dr. Henry Edwards:acknowledgement. I see. Well, I'll have to look into that project. More. This was one of Dr. Adams projects or Mm hmm.
Snyder’s Return:Seems to be that's that's the only information we have the what I've learned from Dr. Adams and and going through the files that I've been able to get access to indicate a project for regeneration. And I won't I don't want to call it human harvesting. But this cloning, shall we say, has seemingly had some some trials and some successes
Dr. Henry Edwards:as well. In your work, you're doing exceptionally well, relative to your predecessor.
Snyder’s Return:As I told you before, Dr. Edwards, I'm not a scientist at
Dr. Henry Edwards:every asset that company needs to be. Some of the scientists are far less useful than others. I have some concerns about your. Your co assistant director, he seems distracted.
Snyder’s Return:I'll make some inquiries for your doctorate. We'll see if we can't find out what's going on there.
Dr. Henry Edwards:Thank you. That will be all for now.
Snyder’s Return:Of course. And you see as she places the case down next to the head of Frank and opens it. There inside the case is the head of Dr. Adams to places the head and neck of Frank virtually face to face carefully next to the head of Dr. Adams, and she closes up the case gives you a cordial nod, spins on on the heel and then leaves your office as we sort of fade out from that and fade out from Rafa moving into the city. We pan across through to Trinity our hospital, where we see Matty Kilroy with the very similar and rather distinctive facial features, which match sort of Frank, but definitely of that of Mr. Hyde. We move through a few hours later to see the toilers colleague Renzo shrinking the head of Frank and placing it upon effectively a key chain ready to be carried around as required. We move further out to where Dr. Stevens can be found in his Garriage hacking with can only be described as a hacksaw the limbs off of an unknown individual. There is polythene sheets all around the Garriage. And we can hear his son Freddie playing some sort of computer game in another room away from Dr. Stevenson's work. And he see a smart looking grey haired, hooded middle aged woman in silver robes have woven spider silk, just pulling a little loose red thread away from a ball of twine. And that is where we will end. Woohoo. Great session.
Rafa:Oh, did we meet this Dr. Stevenson?
Snyder’s Return:You haven't you might do in the future. Yeah.
Dr. Henry Edwards:But yeah, just so. Dr. Stevenson,
Rafa:he's an ominous guy.
Snyder’s Return:I mean, Dr. Drake still out there and he blew up a whole build, cause the destruction of a whole building plus there's other bits and pieces. So there is a lot going on.
Dr. Henry Edwards:Oh, he's still out there.
Snyder’s Return:You never call him you freed didn't even really free. Veronica, from vector for that situation is being handled by Dr. Edwards and Iona? Technically, and he likes labs.
Rafa:Okay. Yeah, I have a full name list over here and kind of the status from everyone and Dr. Drake was very clearly marked as dead for me, and now it's a big question mark.
Snyder’s Return:Please, he's gone silent. Okay, he's not forgotten.
Dr. Henry Edwards:The correct procedure is clearly dead hypothetically.
