>>5343417You get led into the Lodge’s main building, and into the sauna room, where Nicky is holding court with several subordinates. You grudgingly join in, getting undressed in a room full of degenerates doesn’t bother you much anymore, but you hate the way the steam makes your mascara run.
Nicky has clearly been busy since the last time you saw her.
She starts off by noting that the HYDRA IX agents posing as Inquisitors have been lying low ever since Trys’ta kicked their butts at Barbara’s artifact store.
But the news goes downhill from there...
Annika is getting ever closer to the mansion, and has enlisted the help of several elite law enforcement agents. The other Inquisitorial acolytes have scattered across the planet following other leads, which unfortunately make it harder to take them all down in one swoop. You ask Nicky why the Daughter’s haven’t tried using their pet Inquisitors to waylay Annika and her elk, but Nicky replies they are busy playing political games with HYDRA IX’s own subverted Inquisitors (and besides, you are pretty sure this is some sort of test for you, no doubt the Daughters could easily defend the mansion without you).
However, as bad as the Inquisition is, Nicky seems more worried about a rival Slaaneshi cult centered around the noble clan House Croven. Nicky had previously seen them as a minor cult, but she has recently discovered they are linked to a powerful group of warp dabblers out in the Moors, who worship the same collection of Daemon Princes that HYDRA IX is allied with.
>Go after Annika.>Go after House Croven.>Go after the warp dabblers in the Moors.>Go try to figure out more about the mansion.(pics of Rhea and Namara in case you forgot what they look like. however, they will probably spend much of the thread either wearing rich people clothes (see previous thread for some examples), or underdressed)
