Capítulo 50: The Fray

SOMEWHERE IN THE UNDERWORLD

"It is clearly just a provocation," the woman says.

The man shifts his posture on his seat, eyes on the message on the board. 

"We both know it's not a provocation. He is crazy enough to do it. You know what they are capable of. Are you going to let this slide? What if something happens to her?"

"Then what do you suggest we do? Go out there guns blazing? That would be walking straight into their trap. We would be like their laughing stock!"

"And then if we don't? they kill her and we be known to be scared of some back alley gang. Is that what you want us to amount to?"

THE EMBRACE SHALL CAST ALL THAT IS HIDDEN IN THE DARK.

THE LAST GRAIN SHALL FALL FOR THEM,

A NEW ERA SHALL EMBARK.

ENDS ARE BEGINNINGS, 

BEGINNINGS ARE ENDS.

So it says.

He knows what it means, all too clearly.

"We all know what it is, but is it a provocation we are going to ignore?" another man says.
