A courageous journey through the Shadow, taking in the sights of
the predatory realm and asserting oneself over the arrogant
spirits that claim the place, thinking they're the true masters
of it. Mysteries scattered throughout, just waiting for the
Awakened to come by and discover them, to advance the
understanding of the world, of the Arcanum, of the universe
itself. Through that understanding, one can ascend.
That would've been the alternative to this. But no, he's stuck
in traffic. Always check the time before getting in the damn
car, you idiot, you know that.
Thankfully the interview's over. For the job he doesn't want.
But it's become increasingly obvious he needs at least some
theoretical source of money or he's going to create quite the
paper trail of free rent over time. Screw the landlord, though.
And screw that red minivan. "USE YOUR DAMNED SIGNAL!" he
exclaims at nobody. The window isn't even open.

Boston: Infinite possibilities of enlightened pursuits!
Mysteries beyond compare! Existential revelations and Truth with
a capital T!
Massholes!
Nowhere in New England are the drivers more infuriating than in
Massachusetts, a lesson Solomon is learning very rapidly at the
moment.
It’s a lesson he’d be distracted from, though, for at least a
moment: A very large crow lands on the hood of his car. It’s
about the size of a small housecat, and it looks right at him.
It tilts it’s head and pecks at the windshield, to the rhythm of
shave and a haircut.

Tap tap taptaptap tap tap.
While it's not entirely unheard of that a crow might be smart
enough to memorize and then repeat a familiar rhythm like that,
it's unlikely, and unlikely means it's worth looking into.
It's... a little dangerous to have the view of the Supernal
before your eyes when you're driving, but thankfully things are
at a standstill for the moment. And... yes, that's definitely a
mind that goes beyond the complexity of a crow's, and active
supernal magic.
Given the area lacks for Seers, and it's usually easy to pick
out an abyssal nimbus, well, it's entertainment at least.
Refocusing on the mundane, he pushes the button to open the
window. "Seeds are in the glove box," he says, plainly as can
be.
If one actually did check, yes, he does have some sunflower
seeds in there.

The bird flutters into the window and lands in the passenger’s
seat, looking at the glove compartment, then up at Solomon, then
back to the glove compartment, then back to solomon--
--ah, there we go. He opened it for her.
“Hello Solomon,” the bird says, pecking away happily at the
sunflower seeds. “I am here on behalf of the Council. Are you
available for deputee Justicar work?”
That voice is unmistakably The First’s. Head Justicar of the
Concilium.
“Access to the Vault is on the table if you are.”

He does indeed flip it open. And, ah, the bird's speaking. There
we go.
"Deputee Justicar work?" he mirrors questioningly. Though, talk
about the vault clearly has his interest. Eyes flick over
momentarily before refocusing on the road as traffic finally
starts to get moving.
"That's certainly a tempting prospect. What sort of work are we
talking about?" he asks the obvious followup.
And then honks his horn. "HOW IS THAT THE SAME MINIVAN?!"
No, he's not a calm driver.

The bird literally coughs up a wad of paper and p’tooie’s it at
Solomon when the car comes to a stop, probably at a red light.
The First wasn’t very good with cars. She assumed that was a
good spot to do so.
When Solomon un-crumples the little ball, it’s a grainy, mostly
useless photo from a security camera. He can barely make out a
bald man with tattoos.
“This man is wanted for crimes against humanity and existence,
including but not limited to consorting with abyssal entities,
practicing abyssal magic, experimentation on sleeper, awakened,
and sleepwalking souls, and more,” she says.
“The Council has tasked me with assembling a team of Awakened to
track him down and stop whatever plots he has enacted in Boston,
up to and including rescuing his victims.”
Strangely, the shouting doesn't even phase the bird. Must seem
pretty normal to her.

The next stop, thankfully, is his home. Yes, he was getting that
angry when he was only a few minutes away from getting back home
again. Maybe because he was so close, yet so far at the time.
Parking the car and unbuckling, he picks up the ball and starts
to unwrap it, then opens the door as he begins looking it over.
The apartment complex is decently nice looking but not so nice
that he'd elicit too much suspicion by living there.
"I'm guessing a lot of those are interrelated," he says, brow
furrowing. "I'm also imagining this photo alone isn't enough for
anyone to forge any real sympathy to him," added on as an
afterthought.
He waits for her to fly (or hop, or whatever) out of the car
before closing the door to it. "Any plan so far? Anything in
motion? Or still just in the 'gathering people' phase?"

“The picture hasn’t given us any sympathetic connections, no.
We’re still just gathering people. A Herald will likely contact
you in a few hours with a meeting time and place to meet your
fellow concilium members.”
She hops down out of the car.
“Can I count you in?”

He nods, "Of course. Can't have that sort running around the
place. I'll see you there," he assures her.
Gives him a few hours to get couple things done, then.
~End~
