Emlyn White took 150 pounds from his wallet and handed them to the tall boy before him, Ian, who wore a brown bowler hat, an old overcoat, and a tattered satchel, yet dealt in black-market weapons and intelligence.
"This is your payment." Emlyn looked at Ian expectantly, hoping the intelligence dealer would give him precise information about his targets.
He was searching for several believers of the Primordial Moon. This concerned a trial within his clan. Emlyn had already hunted down one of them, but to secure an absolute victory in this trial, he still needed to hunt two more.
Because the trial set by the Sanguine required him to find and hunt five believers of the Primordial Moon, achieving enough victories.
"Still short by half." Ian smiled, seeming rather suspiciously like he was raising the price at the last minute.

"Yes." Ian handed over the remaining sheet of paper in his hand. "While my friend was watching Argos and confirming his residence, he discovered that Argos had met with a gentleman named Galis Kevin. So, we have the residences of two targets at once."
"Excellent!" Emlyn swiftly emptied his wallet and obtained the addresses of two Primordial Moon believers. After bidding Ian farewell, he planned to attend the Tarot Club gathering that afternoon, then return between eight and nine in the evening and decide when to act based on the circumstances.
