Quadrant: Scholomance Capital
Hour: 1035

Operative: Enigma

Scholomance was an intimidating kingdom, and the capital didn't disappoint. Large, sharp buildings rose up from the ground, covered in black, solar paneled glass. Nothing in the city was useless, even the streets were paved with high-tech traffic analyzing technologies, so no man power could be wasted on such an unproductive task. The cool hues of black, gray and dark blue contrasted with the bright blue skies and white sidewalks, all bright and clean. 

He adored the city, but he hated the city. It was incredibly efficient and well developed, perhaps too well developed. There was no room in this society for mistakes and failure meant harsh consequences.

"Scholar."

Speak of the devil. He turned to face the graying man standing besides his Remini. He thought she had sounded more nervous than usual.

"Undine Gamma."

"We have much to speak about... It's in regards to.. those files we found."

The Sphinx raised an eyebrow, intrigued. He placed his hands on the desk, the Faience ring glimmering dangerously.

"Do tell."
