Family Outing

WHO: Raven Branwen, Yang Xiao Long
WHAT: Yang's taken on a relatively simple bounty hunting mission, and decides to invite her mother along so they can spend some time together doing girl things. Like beating up necromancers!
WHEN: November 23rd, 2017
WHERE: Everglade


"So there are rules to this," Yang explained, leaning against the old manor wall, holding one elbow while vaguely gesturing with her metal hand. "For one, if we don't bring the guy in alive, we don't get paid. No maiming. But consciousness is optional," she pointed out. "For another, if one of his guys shows up, don't touch him. We don't know where this head honcho is holing up. But if we follow the skeleton zombies or whatever he's using, they'll be carrying the loot he wants, so he'll have to make contact with the goods eventually."

She turned her head and leaned forward, studying the damp and foggy streets. If she'd stuck with her original schedule and gone after the guy yesterday, this would have been a lot easier. It had been sunny and kind of warm, not the kind of weather that made it easy to conceal one's identity with weather-appropriate gear. Then again, the necromancer hadn't robbed anyone yesterday, probably for those reasons alone. So she had to put up with the rain and be glad that her arm was rust-proof. The only problem was, everyone wearing a hood and cloak looked suspicious. They'd just have to wait for someone to start yelling.

"Anyway, that's the plan. It should be simple, since it's the lowest tier of payment. But these hunts have a way of getting tricky in unexpected ways, so we'll need to watch each other's backs just in case. Sound good?"
