Unexpected Visitor
Lucius Antonius Aquilla rarely ventured out of the city of Nova Roma deep in the heart of the Amazon Rainforest, but his mission was quite urgent and had brought him New Orleans. His grandson Cornelius lived here with his teammates and Lucius needed their help.

With little difficulty he made his way through the city and eventually came to the headquarters of the Champions. He double checked the address and satisfied that he was at the right place he knocked on the door.

	"Not much, I'm afraid. There were a few witnesses, but none can really describe the perpetrators. You can all come to Nova Roma if needed, of course," he said. "I'm afraid it is a long trip." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I am unsure that we need to go all the way to Nova Roma. We just need to look at where people would have gone to after leaving there, I think," Rose points out. "But going to Nova Roma still would not be so big of an issue." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We probably should go to Nova Roma and see if Nick can pick up a trail," Irina suggested. Irina looked at Corey's grandfather and smiled. "I can get us there in a matter of seconds." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"It never hurts to start at the beginning and see what's there to find," Jenny said. "Though maybe we should also send out some feelers in the collector market?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Very good point, Jenny. We're definitely in a good place for it." Whatever gods dealt in collections smiled well enough on New Orleans. "But you're definitely going home faster than you came, Grandfather." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lucius smiled. "Good. I have faith that you all will find the knife and the gods willing it will be before it is used." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Lovely, Nova Roma on a hangover. "At least I can get some good coffee there while I poke around." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I.... am uncertain where I will be most useful. Perhaps Nova Roma," she decides with a faint cock of her head. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Yeah, having you along in Nova Roma would be useful. If I do pick something up, I'm going to end up pretty single minded. Having more level heads around can't hurt." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Jenny, Irina, do you think the two of you could look into things here? We'd contact you as soon as we needed you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course," Jenny said instantly. "A few inquiries might turn up something." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Wonderful. After I have had some tea and some of my grandson's wonderful cooking, we shall go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	irondragon 2012-02-25 04:04 am UTC (link)
	Rose moves to continue fixing the tea. "It should be ready shortly," she supplies calmly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"If Corey doesn't need me to to fetch any ingredients I'll go make a list of collectors to check out." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	tabula_rasa 2012-02-26 03:38 am UTC (link)
	"I have the names of a few shops I've been in since moving here," Jenny said. "They might give up some information about interested collectors if we say we have something similar for an auction." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Nick gathers what he can for reasonably quick food and caffeiene. "Alright, soon as people are done eating, I'll get my bike and be good to go." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	She finishes the tea she managed to get. She is a little hungry but the disciplined life style she is used to keeps her from saying anything about it. "I am prepared to go whenever everyone else is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Come, my boy," Lucius told Nick. "We will get you food and some drink." (Reply to this)(Parent)
