Caelia hands the scroll back to Artemis. "You are right; and at least we know where Scaevola is- at least I hope so!" She says to Thorn and then waits with Artemis, Marcus and Spurius ready to lead them to her villa on the way to Marcus Antonius.

"Yes, of course Lady Caelia, we can stop at your Villa, but we need to leave quickly then. Marcus, Spurius, and I are ready, Lady Caelia, is anyone else joining us?" Artemis looked about as he stood near where Marcus and Spurius were also waiting. " But, we need to get leaving now. The more that night passes, the stronger the plotters grow."

Story looks at his companions and says, "If we go to Scaevola, we will undoubtedly find the dagger."

"So presumably that is where we should go?" says Elizabeth, hesitantly, looking from Story to Brook, and to Lucius as well. "If we have to stop him, or get the dagger, then do we realistically have any other options?"
Re: IC-After Midnight(Story/Companions/Caelia/Cavalrymen/Mar
While they wait for the oddly dressed group to decide, Caelia pulls Artemis, Marcus and Spurius to one side, "Look, to save time I'll translate the gist of the message to you now and then you can go straight to Marcus Antonius. But come in close as I only want to whisper; who knows who could be watching us right now."
Caelia rolls the parchment up and hands it back, not wanting to touch it any longer. "So Scaevola thinks by murdering Caesar with this magic dagger he'll gain magical powers himself. He's crazier than I thought. And more dangerous than any of us dreamed.
I'll still play my part however and it was a good idea for me to be obvious to spot. I have a bright yellow stola and palla and a headdress of yellow feathers. It'll look ridiculous but you'll spot me in a crowd."

Marcus hears Caelia's reading and remains calm at the contents, as he already suspected something like this from his visit to Scaveola's place.
"I think it's of utmost importance that we head out as soon as possible if we're meant to do something about this, from the writing, I can perceive that these ceremonies would take a great deal of planning, and there's the chance the absence of this document might be noted anytime, if it hasn't been already." He said with a calm face, almost opposite to the serious tone in which he spoke.

Story looks at the motley crew and says, "I believe my companions and I will attempt to track down and confront Scaevola."

"Alright, then, I think our group needs to head off quickly to find the Consul," Artemis spoke back towards the group as he swept his hand towards his fellow soldiers.

Lucius Verres
After falling asleep for a few seconds Lucious woke up for what seems for him an eternity, he stand up and say"For my part I'll be going with Story, I think that's where I'll be the more usefull. Let's try to get Scaevola or the dagger Story! ".
And Lucious turn in direction of Caelia and ask:"Can you give us any indication on how to acess that initiation chamber in Scaveola house? "

Re: IC-After Midnight(Story/Companions/Caelia/Cavalrymen/Mar
Caelia looks uncertain. "I don't know that I can. It's a difficult one. Scaevola warned that should I reveal the secrets of the Brotherhood, my eyes will be ripped out, my tongue severed and all sorts of horrible things will happen to me. If I tell you where in the garden the secret entrance to his underground lair is then he will know I told you. I swore to Thoth you see." She smiles briefly. "I did drop my bangle just before descending so to mark my passage in case I never came back. You need to be very wary of his guards too; they are fierce and carry khopesh."

Lucius Verres
Lucius lower slightly his head smiling, "I understand your fear, the powers of the gods are not to be taken lightly. Don't say nothing more, I dont want to put you at higher risk for those informations, I'll try to be discreet as a shadow when I'll search for the lair. "
He could not hold back a light smile again thinking of how clever Caelia is.

Marcus nods at Artemis's gesture and then looks at Lucius and Caelia talking, as he proceeds to let his weight fall on a wall, calmly waiting for Artemis and the others to lead the way.
"Ready when you are, my friends." He said while letting out a soft laugh.

"Good luck." Caelia says to Lucius with a small smile and then turns to go with the soldiers. "Let's hurry."
Re: IC-After Midnight(Story/Companions/Caelia/Cavalrymen/Mar
"Quickly I say, let's make quick of it," Artemis turned and joined Marcus and Lady Caelia as they headed out in to the cool night air.
Re: IC-After Midnight(Story/Companions/Caelia/Cavalrymen/Mar
Adelphus gave directions to all who needed them. After Artemis, Spurius, and Marcus dropped off Caelia at her home, where she went to sleep, they continued to the house of Marcus Antonius. Story and his companions went to the Ostia gate, heading for Scaevola's villa in the countryside.
