Hope's Haven ~ A little taste of Gallia

[Paschal]

Brother Paschal slid quietly into a small booth at the rear of the bar, his head and shoulders shrouded in a hooded cloak, preventing recognition from curious eyes.

When the barkeep approached, Paschal ordered beer and along with a few credits, pressed a small, rectangular pendant resembling an Eye, an ancient symbol of the Illuminati into the outstretched hand.

“Please pass this to the Owner......”

The barkeep nodded and with his beer now served Paschal waited patiently until he heard approaching steps....

“Brother Paschal, you made it! Step this way, Good to see you!”

“ And you Master Cagliostro!” Paschal rose and was led away to the Masters’ private offices......

“Well met my friend!” Exclaimed Cagliostro when they were comfortable “What news do you have for me?”

“The good news is that I now have our new l’Ane transport commissioned, Br. St. Germaine provided me with access codes for passage here. I would never have found you otherwise.

Bad news from Gallia though. There is a rising torrent of chill emanating from the hungry, oppressive forces of evil, SHE is gathering Royalist forces and whipping her acolytes into to a frenzied state. I fear it is inevitable that in only a short time we will see HER vile disease spill into Sirius. The Sense of the Eye tells me we may have only a short time to prepare before the fragile peace is shattered..... And my intelligence in Gallia tells me that nearly all the moves have been made and SHE is on the verge of invasion....“

Master Cagliostro frowned at the news. "Hmm..Time is pressing indeed, let me tell you of our progress here in the borders with Sirius..."
