[Sodium_noir] Dusk Revisited

[Spikey]

Mara Ravenclaw, Zoë and Christophe Basarab
Brujah
Dusk, Map room


> Mara considers her words for a moment then speaks.  "My association with Melcom is...an antagonistic one.  My father's family has worked for Melcom almost since their inception in Seattle.  My family, and now I hold a sizeable percentage of some of Melcom's stock.  My father died, and I was the last of the line, so Melcom wanted me to join them.  When I came of age, they offered me a scholarship to the college of my choice.  I refused.  When I graduated, they offered me a position in the company.  Again, I refused, and took a job elsewhere.  They didn't take kindly to that.  They found ways to make things difficult for me, but after about a year, they seemed to give up on me.  Until I opened LSS and declared war on them."   

"Melcom like to maintain their links to bloodlines!" Christophe replied thoughtfully. "The sins of the Father .."

".. afflict unto the seventh generation!" Zoë finished for him. "or several, depending on which version you read. But Melcom have always played the long game. It wouldn't surprise me if they had their hooks in your family even longer than you real;ise Mara, under a different name and through different means."

"But the past is done, it cannot be changed. The future can be." Christophe's tone had become less jovial as he spoke. He takes a seat properly and leans forward a little. "Getting yourself embraced will have really messed with their schemes, which is always good, but after all the work they've put into you Mara, they won't just give up. Even if you hadn't chosen to fight Melcom, you'd have been enmeshed in their schemes anyway. Kinda lucky for you then that you found us!"

"Luck has no quantifiable measure brother! The patterns of coincidence may be hidden from view, but they still exist. Considering how long you spent whoring and gambling with our Sganzy I thought you might have learnt that." She turns to Mara, her face as ever as stern as a classical sculpture. "You clashed with the Mayor recently Mara, over a church. Tell me a little of that."
