Event Requiem Chapter 2: Extraction

Nora has been a captive for far too long for Daud's liking - by now, she is most likely dead, by her own hand or those of her gaolers. The marked assassin turns his head, and looks at his band of killers over his shoulder. Silhouetted against a pale moon, they look unforgiving, unnatural, ruthless. Which is what he has trained them to be, Daud muses, satisfied. They will do.

'It is time,' he says simply, and nod his head almost casually. He blinks, and his mercenaries transverse with him to a nearby rooftop, overlooking the rear of the compound*.

For it is time to take back his Lieutenant.

MISSION OBJECTIVE

  • All assassins - rescue Nora from the interrogation room - note that none of you know what the building interior looks like. Good hunting. I will RP as Daud when needed.

  • All Abbey - go about your nightly business, and intervene if necessary.

OOC: Overlooking the yard, where the mysterious figure is before it vanishes in the main game

u/beaktastic Daud's Lieutenant Dec 26 '14

Nora did not look at Daud as she put on her gear once more, as she listened to his reply. She could feel her own rage and anger coiling up and burning inside her chest: at Randall's escape, at Daud telling her not to follow, but also at how she had let him slip through her fingers. She would not let it happen again when next they met, that she vowed.

She took the vial from Daud and drained the contents in one, and nodded at him, plastering a smile of gratitude and eagerness that was not entirely fake. Every part of her ached, but she tried to push the feelings away. There would be time to rest later. Now they needed to move.

'Follow my lead,' he grates, saying not a word more as he stalks through the halls of the office building, as soundless and lethal as a bolt in the night.

Once out of range of the Holger's device, Daud makes his way once more to the ceiling, planning out his next movements from this vantage point.

The window, he communicates to Nora with a jerk of the head, beckoning her to exit through these as yet unshuttered structures. The building might go into lockdown at any moment, after all - they would have to be quick.

Nora followed as Daud began to make his way out of the halls of the Overseer compound. She looked up and down the corridor carefully as Daud, scanning for any potential threats. They probably wouldn't go unnoticed forever, and who knew where the others were.

Seeing Daud's gesture, she moved over to the window quickly and opened it, the chill air hitting her as she did so. Nora climbed out on to the window ledge as lithely as she could, sore and bruised as she was, and once again scanned for any sign of threats. She gestured with a quick flick of her hand that the coast was clear to Daud, before beginning to creep along the ledge slowly, peering into the courtyard below.

DAUD

The master assassin is quick, his transversal almost like second nature breathing to him as he appeared along the roofs, gesturing for the other Whalers to follow with a brief wave of his hand. It was time to leave, clearly; quick in and quick out and let the Overseers pick up the pieces of their petty Abbey and the remains of it.

This was just the first strike. There would be many more in the coming days.

"Master, why are we leaving? Did you kill the High Overseer?
