CUSTOMER & ORDER: THE SOCIETY
SERVER: BARISTA
Man, oh man, where do I even begin? The meeting with the Society of Nom de Plume was supposed to be… well… damn, I guess they did advertise it as a night to remember, huh? But, that was crazy. There is definitely a double-agent working among them. Not our problem though. Let me back up a bit—so, we were barely through our appetizers before things went haywire. The inseparable Couple took the Mechanism pieces to be put away for safekeeping, but before we knew it, the lights flickered, and they were gone. All of them were gone. In the blink of an eye, the Couple and the Mechanism pieces were gone.
It seems like the assailants were the Unseen and Unheard, two ghost-like creatures who are, well, they live up to their namesakes. The Unseen cannot be seen beyond a faint black inky glimmer, and the Unheard cannot be heard, only its horrible, twisted form looming over you. Absolutely chilling. The only thing they left behind was more of that oily, translucent, iron-smelling gunk, and a lot of it too. The whole scene then erupted into chaos—people shouting, the Professor frantically trying to piece together what had happened… and just us in the middle of it.
Of course, most of the Society members accused us of taking the Mechanism or somehow working with the Dark. But Big Guy handled all of that, and I guess the only way to really clear our names is to help them find the missing Couple and the Mechanism pieces. By the way… am I crazy for thinking that the Couple were actually just the Unseen and Unheard this entire time? Apparently, the Professor has known them for a very long time and is confident that they couldn’t be… but… it seems really convenient, doesn’t it? If they aren’t actually the Unseen and Unheard, they could be working with them, right? With the Dark? Well—it doesn’t matter. Right now, we just need to find those missing Mechanism pieces and the Couple—Unseen and Unheard or not.
