>>>>>[ Greetings compatriots, after that marvelous dinner, which was,
unfortunately cut rather short. (Our Mr Gillian does not waste his time)
I, as was planned slipped out to the limo and extended myself onto the
astral. You were correct about him using magic, I saw you follow him for
two blocks, then he lit up like a chrismas tree with a spell. (I saw no
indication of him casting though, I believe the invisibility is spell
locked, I'd hate to think anyone could cast a spell that powerfull
without losing a single breath) He then switched to astral perception,
thankfully my contingency for this seemed to convince him, although he was
slightly suspicious. He led me through two different warded buildings,
however I picked him up both times as he left. (admittably the first time
was luck more than anything else) He then scanned the astral once more,
but this time I was ready, I dont think he saw me.
Finially he headed towards his destination, he climbed down into the
sewers (this surprised me), there were two people waiting for him,
neither magically active, they appeared to be guides, although they were
well armed. I followed them for about an hour through the sewers, and
then we approached a curious junture point in the sewer system. Part of
the sewers had been warded, approximately a 20 x 20 x 10 area, two guards
were stationed just outside the ward, at this point I sensed a patrolling
elemental, that combined with the fact that I did not have a whole lot of
time remaining on the astral compelled me to return to a more physical
state.
While all this is rather fascinating, I am afraid it just gives us more
questions, and not many answers. There is however one 'lead', the guides
and guards were definately well trained, but not pro enough to be
government or yakuza, and they weren't corp, my insticts tell me that
they were part of a fixers bodyguard. I'm currently contacting Courier,
he should be able to give me the fixer in question's name within 24
hours. (if I'm right) I.B.A. get back to reality, there isn't any way a
fixer is gonna tell us what that meeting was about, but Courier has
enough weight to smooth over a minor matrix 'penetration', particularly
if there's no wetwork involved and you don't go shopping. Oh his fee for
this sort of thing is usually 10k (that includes the restitution for our
target), he'd do it for free, but Johnson doesn't seem too worried about
money, and there's no harm in spreading a little good cheer. ]<<<<<
