If they have it somewhere on record, we won't have to talk to them.

[lucency]

You believe it's accessible?

[hattergonnahat]

Not easily.

[lucency]

You don't think you can do it without help.

I'm more than willing to help, but do you have an approach? A way to pinpoint it beyond scouring the city?

[hattergonnahat]

It's been broken into a few times. Usually when the cultists appear.

I've wondered if there's some correlation, but there's no way to tell until they show up again. Not the news you were hoping for, I know.

[lucency]

Not exactly. But are their appearances random, or is there a pattern to it?

[hattergonnahat]

There may be a pattern to the timing. I'll know more the next time it happens.

Here's hoping I'm wrong, and they don't.

[lucency]

Don't come back? Isn't that less helpful?

[hattergonnahat]

I for one enjoy the peace and quiet of not having people trying to set themselves on fire. Or undead and sandstorms being summoned up. I don't want to think on what the next cult might be about.

[lucency]

Then how do we befriend them? Infiltrate them and stop the horrors from happening along with gaining access to what it is we want?

[hattergonnahat]

Befriend them?

[ That...wasn't exactly what he had in mind. ]

[lucency]

Maybe that isn't the BEST word for it, but ally with them. We could accomplish more if we gained their trust.

[hattergonnahat]

Do you think that's even possible?

[lucency]

It could be. It's worth a try.

[hattergonnahat]

And what if it works?

[lucency]

If it works, then we have an in. Unless I'm reading it incorrectly.

[hattergonnahat]

I mean what then. Everyone's going to try and fight them, like they always do.

[lucency]

Who's to say we can't sway them? After all, we are originally from the "other side."

[hattergonnahat]

You did catch that they're cultists, right? I don't think they're going to be particularly open-minded about outsider opinions.

[lucency]

You did say you wanted my help.

They were swayed once. What's stopping it from happening again?

[hattergonnahat]

I guess if it all goes horribly wrong, we don't have to worry about dying permanently.

[lucency]

That doesn't mean we should aim for it.

[hattergonnahat]

Never do.

I assume you won't mind if I run this plan past the others. Wouldn't want some kind of miscommunication involving betrayal and switching sides, so on and so forth.

[lucency]

Of course not. I'll mention it to Rumple. He may take it better that way.

[hattergonnahat]

I couldn't agree more.
