Access to the city was hard won, but the agents are finally inside and able to ask questions. However, a mythical city full of fictional characters is not the most reliable place to find information.

(CW: Sirens 8:02 - 8:19) The queasy stomachs just add another layer to the rising discomfort R Cell has with each new bit of information they uncover.

It’s rare that R Cell has a subject matter expert to assist them, but as clues and “coinkydinks” pile up, maybe it’s never been more important.

Indie theatre has a certain reputation for unusual concepts, but last night’s show seemed weird even by those standards.
