Biography

Session 3

The party found Silas in a hidden room in the sewers with Miles Quickstep and the mage child Brundun.¹ In the standoff that followed he offered the party a choice: let Miles go and be owed a favor by the Syndicate, or turn Miles in and owe the Syndicate one.¹ The party turned Miles in.¹

Session 15

Silas met Iva, in the guise of Emilio, at the square where she had handed Brundun to Miles Quickstep, at sunset on 2 Nightdeep, 1714 PSF. A man sent ahead looked her over first.² Silas told her that the Syndicate had other contacts inside the Order of the Lantern, and that Harwick Stoll was trying to report the party’s magic up north.² He warned her of the loose ends she had left: Julia Valerius’s investigation of the forged documents, and Gavril Valerius’s interest in them.² He proposed that she help him keep a promise to Miles and get him out of prison and out of the city, and that Iva D’Aquino appear to die doing it, with a faked explosion and a body dug out of the ground.² As a favor he would keep Stoll’s report from becoming official. Iva agreed to that one job.²

Quotations
