Episode 4[]
Faye disguised, colored her hair blonde
Speaking to Loch, Rook updates him on the events of Faye getting caught and learns that Atlantis had attempted to pull a stunt on them. He also hears of the strange warning Kaiphus gave after the arena fight days ago. At Kaiphus' mention of "the traveler from the sands" and a "man in all black speaking of a lottery", Rook suspects him to be speaking of a wastelander named "Wit" who fits the description.
Loch also told that Warren had gone into hiding, returning to his former employer Quixote since Atlantis tried to use him. They had apparently injected him with something that caused him to lose control, becoming a puppet after which he had attempted an attack on Nirvana with a bomb planted in his arm. Luckily the ploy failed, and Atlantis later attempted to pin the attack on MARS to hide its origin. When Rook meets Warren later in secret he tells Rook that him returning to Quixote is a front. He's not changing allegiance, and he will keep him up to speed and provide intelligence. Someone who has truly shifted their allegiance to the corps however is Phil. He has something very valuable to tell Warren and he has a meeting scheduled at the Hellbats HQ. Rook advises him to record the meeting using his helmet with help from Faye.
The Union Governor of Corvanis 3 had also held an audience with Loch. He spoke to him about the trouble filling the emerging power vacuum on the planet now that the old president has gone missing. The former president had left a strange transmission before he went missing, mentioning an old Galactic Union base from the war, but before completing the message it ended in static.
Visiting the Dirty Diamond, Rook expresses his affection to Kee'ra and is introduced to their new bartender Vessa Chernelle. She is looking for someone in TALARIS in order to find out more about the corporations involvement in the death of her family seven years ago. Rook can't give any answers to help her but takes a mental note. Going out for dinner at the noodle shop with Kee'ra, she tells him that she has a sad background with the SONITII Corporation and Rook promises that he will do all he can to help her and her girls at the brothel. Before parting ways he commends her singing, that it truly is a gift to be treasured and that she was never cut out for a "job at the flesh market."[1]
