Captain Slater assays some breaking and entering, while Friar Clark and Mr Froste use a desire for honest work to cover their interest in Mr Gilbert's house; Herr Schwartz, though, disturbs a goodwife.

Having retrieved a legendary sword last time, the team needs to track down a Demon to use it on. Vera the Driver follows a rapidly rising Government minister while Kate the Provocateur schmoozes his private secretary. Meanwhile, Tony the Sparks discovers that Demons are compelled to tempt their victims first and can be deterred by a symbol of faith. Finally, Jacko the disgraced SEAL investigates the locations the minister is visiting and discovers they form a pentagram over central London that's centred on the BBC's Broadcasting House. There's a secure annex at the Beeb, a flashy reception hosted by its Director General, and a group of surprise guests...then a change of mind, a summoning, and a tempting...before a child of the Church wields the power of a Saint...

There's a Fae beast of blood, a mechanical horror, and a realisation that they did more than retrieve a relic in Suffolk...then the Book of Dead Names speaks, heretics burn a sinner, and a poet makes them an offer...but the fate of the 'Necron Omicon'...remains obscure...

Leandro Pondoc runs for Brandon Brylawski, SalamanderJames, and Steven S.

Rose blitzes past the COP forces, Andrej is entranced by another work of art, Alex Afterglow convinces a co-worker to throw in with the masses and every player damn near failed to miss every single roll.
