Prologue:
The New Walled Sector sprang up overnight. United in a common goal, both Hammerite and Mechanist laboured side by side to contain the Gas which bled from the corpse of Soulforge. Only when the last of the brick and iron was secured did anyone think of the unfortunate souls on the Wrong Side of the Barricade.
Many prayers were uttered that night, on both sides of the New Wall. Not one was answered...
In the morning, all Hell broke loose in the City. Mechanists and Hammerites fought in the streets, each determined to destroy the other. The Watch, under the leadership of the hastily-promoted Mosley, was mobilised with orders to reclaim control by any means necessary. Martial Law was declared, and anyone found on the streets was subject to immediate arrest and incarceration. By evening, Shoalsgate was filled beyond capacity, and makeshift detention centers were established wherever there was room for them. Sheriff Mosley issued a public announcement that, unless the Watch had control of the City by dawn, any person caught in the possession of a weapon or discovered wearing emblems of either the Hammer or the Machine would be executed on the spot.
And at dawn, there were three factions slaughtering each other in the streets.
Never one to overstay my welcome, I've decided to wait out the City's madness in a small hamlet some twenty miles north: a damp, miserable little mining town called Moth. With any luck, I'd be able to stay with an old ally, a man named Brunnen who now runs a boarding house for travellers. Should be a nice change of pace.
Brunnen was very accomodating. It's wonderful what a bit of threatened blackmail can accomplish. He's established himself as a reputable man in Moth: No one suspects his past, and he is eager to keep it that way. The ignorance of the Moth Town Watch enables him to continue his fencing operations without fear of arrest. Besides, I think my arrival has stirred the Old Man's blood to thoughts of excitement again. As soon as I saw him, I knew this town was beginning to bore him to tears.
I had been in Moth precisely eleven days when Brunnen came to my room with two very peculiar men. I had barely left the building in all that time, and it felt strange to have company. Especially company as strange as these two.
They looked alike, dressed alike, and even spoke as if they had but one mind between them. The Fence introduced them as Idmon and Mopsus, Moth's resident Seers, before taking his leave.
"Mr. Garrett," began one of the Seers. "We are told that you are a man of..."
"...remarkable talent," finished his brother. "It is precisely that sort of man that we require."
"I don't know what Brunnen told you," I scowled. "I think you gentlemen have been misinformed. I'm just a shopkeeper. I sell clothing to Noblemen and their wives. If it's clothing you want..."
