TWH04

Summary of Receipt

Kikimora joins the trip to the Necropolis as additional protection, especially from any ex-Everdark remnants willing to assassinate Capgras to rebuild Is - though personally she thinks it's useless. Besides that, there's also the general instability since every Prince died - and even though Necropolis had a regent, the Black Queen, things could get politically tense anyway.

Receipt: TWH04
Author: Kikimora
Status: Open
Subject: Hyperion Cult

I'm willing to tag along. You could use some protection, especially in such a tumultuous region. I get that you're "Shaka," but I think we all know you've still got a long way to go until you're actually Shaka. And there's a lot of desperate and displaced children of Is who'd love to take a swing at someone like you, Capgras. Especially if they thought it might help them reclaim a bit of ground. Though, I personally think their cause is hopeless—you can't do much when your former King turns out to be another GCE's pawn.

It's not even just the shadows I'm worried about. I know you all have a history with "Warren," but I wouldn't put my trust in him. He's dangerous. He's one of the more powerful "customers" you might run into down there, and who knows? He might be trying to make a play for the throne himself. If anything, he'd be an outlier if he wasn't. Since the Princes were killed, nearly every plane has been in some sort of turmoil. Necropolis got lucky, already having a regent in the rule. But that doesn't mean things haven't shifted, either.

I hope I'm not oversharing anything. It's hard to tell what is and isn't appropriate to say in these new "not" Cafe and Diner receipts. I think it'd be worth sitting down at some point to actually go over what our atmosphere and expectations are supposed to be… especially if you're just going to run this like a Cafe and Diner anyway. Or have you been avoiding that because it'd make this more official than you'd like? Not that matters, anyway. We can't have a Cafe and Diner with an 8, even if we have two Shakas.
