Distant Past
Distant Past

The Sovereigns, beings of immeasurable power that exist on the plane of reality known as Aria, create Daemonkind as a subordinate race meant to serve them. The Sovereigns are the only known source of the energy that sustains Daemons, leaving them at the former's mercy.

Distant Past

Daemons grow resentful of their mistreatment and begin to actively rebel. Rak'Xit, the Inchoate Sovereign, discovers the ability to rift to an alternate plane of existence, "Terra", where humanity resides. The Sovereigns begin traveling there en masse, finding humans to be more malleable subjects than Daemons. In an attempt to turn them into a suitable replacement for Daemonkind, they begin twisted experiments meant to imbue humanity with powers.

Distant Past

Each of the Sovereigns that chose to experiment on humanity creates a branch of empowered humans that specialize in the same style of magic as that Sovereign. The Sovereign of Fire, Tal'Ris, creates Fire Elementals through these efforts; The Sovereign of Dreams, N'Dellex, creates the Dreamwalkers; etc. A'Xerahn, the Sovereign of Desire, experiments the most forcefully, and his efforts backfire when he pushes the human form too far, inadvertently creating Vampires. Meanwhile, Daemonkind discovers that human emotions act as a source of energy for them comparable to that provided by the Sovereigns, offering an alternative form of sustenance.

Distant Past

Humanity chooses to rebel against the Sovereigns' cruelty and ally themselves with the Daemons. Two Sovereigns join their efforts, E'Laetum of Empathy and Min'Ara of Serenity. A horrific conflict erupts, with Terra as the main front of the battle. The Sovereigns appear to be winning given their greater power, but a last minute sacrifice by Rak'Xit of all his lifeforce empowers large numbers of as-yet unempowered humans with his unfocused specialty of magic, creating the Freelancers (and explaining why they're vastly more common than specialized empowereds).

Distant Past

The drastic increase in empowered human forces tips the scales, and the alliance successfully beats the Sovereigns. All Sovereigns except E'Laetum and Min'Ara are bound in the empty realm of "Death" to prevent further conflict, believing that they will eventually 'starve'. A contingent of Serenity Daemons chooses to sacrifice themselves to the cause of watching over the Sovereigns until their eventual end, with plans to feed on the gods to sustain themselves until eventually they all cease to exist. The Daemons take on the new moniker "Deathwalker".

Distant Past

The scale of the conflict and the drastic uptick in empowered humans drawing on magic puts incredible strain on the thin barrier between Terra and Aria, with collapse imminent. This would completely eliminate all of Terra. In order to prevent this, E'Laetum and Min'Ara choose to make the sacrifice to reform themselves as a new barrier between those worlds, which comes to be known as the Meridian.

Distant Past

Daemons discover that, while human emotion is a suitable sustenance source for them, they each are only able to be sustained by particular kinds of emotion. Previously, they were grouped based on the Sovereign that they served, but this revelation causes them to restructure themselves instead into categories based on their feeding capabilities. Daemons that found that they could feed on feelings of Empathy or Serenity choose to keep the name “Daemon” with an “a” as an honorific to the Empathy and Serenity sovereigns that had sacrificed themselves to create the Meridian. All other branches drop the “a”, going by “Demon” instead, as a way of distancing themselves from their prior lives of subjugation.

Distant Past

D[a]emonkind and humanity's alliance and relations wither over time in the absence of a shared enemy. As time wears on, empowered humans choose to keep their power secret from the unempowered masses that far outnumber them. Unempowered humans come to consider magical powers to be fictional. Empowered humans slowly lose their knowledge of their history, with it fading into folklore and then largely disappearing over the centuries. While D[a]emonkind maintains a better grasp on their history, it also becomes considered myth.

Magical Affairs in North America

Magical affairs in North America have been primarily managed by an initially self-appointed group calling themselves the Ruling Council, seeking to provide large-scale resources and controls to the empowered population of the area. In an effort to legitimatize themselves and become a more thorough infrastructure, the Ruling Council becomes an elected body, and establishes a handful of departments below it to manage empowered needs. One of these departments, the one primarily focused on the creation of standardized magical edicts, practices, codes of conduct, and enforcement of covert, is named the Department of Uniform Magical Practices.

Dahlia Cornerstone

Dahlia, California is appointed as the eighth Cornerstone City, representing the "Pacific Division" of the United States.

1912
Council Reform

Aggressive reform efforts against the Ruling Council's unchecked oversight of empowered affairs results in severe restructuring of the magical government. The majority of the departments are culled and the Ruling Council is changed to be a cameral adjunct rather than the executive body of empowered affairs. That position is instead granted to the Department of Uniform Magical Practices, which is drastically expanded to become the umbrella infrastructure to which the Council and other bodies answer, effectively superseding its progenitor. Despite its wildly expanded breadth, its original name is kept in place. Explanations for this odd decision vary wildly to this day.

McKinley

McKinley is appointed as the ninth Cornerstone City, representing the "Mountain Division" of the United States. It's declared to be the final one, and the existing divisions have their borders adjusted as a result.

He offered to turn her, and she accepted.

February 13th: A catastrophic accident with the "Surge" rollercoaster kills roughly 30 people, with one person reported missing. Vincent sustains mortal injuries in the accident and is subsequently turned into a Vampire by William Solaire without consultation. He becomes the second Solaire progeny. The speed of the unempowered emergency response to the disaster does not allow the Department enough time to falsify his death, so he is officially labeled as "missing" by the unempowered authorities.

Vincent Invoked

March: Vincent resents being turned, and as the reality of his future sets in, he refuses to feed on blood. The initial amount of William's blood provided during the Turning has sustained him thus far, but that effect soon wears off. His health continues to decline.

Though effective as a life-saving measure, it sends Vincent and William's relationship even harder into a nosedive. It takes years for the situation to improve.

One of the D.A.M.N. staff members that was intended to walk the medals into the stadium for the ceremony that evening is unable to attend, so Lasko volunteers to do so. Xavier performs his event and gets first place, setting a new national record. Sam and Vincent watch "Lovely" perform, and they get second place. Sam and Vincent congratulate them heartily.

Deeply unsettled by the content of the CloseKnit meeting, Elliott and "Sunshine" are led to a back room to discuss particulars about joining. They defy efforts to separate them, and after unproductive questioning, they are momentarily left alone. Elliott and "Sunshine" decide to make a run for it, but are knocked unconscious in their attempt. They awaken in the building's basement with Blake, who tells them that he knows about Brachium and plans to use their connection to him to open communications with the realm of Death. He draws "Sunshine" into a dreamscape.

Brachium manages to enter the dream as well, and uses his powers to shelter "Sunshine" for as long as he can, but his abilities in the dreamscape are limited. Brachium has realized that he has been misled in his believed purpose, and that his memories of his past have been occluded from him. He vows to defend them in any way he can, but his powers are fading. He uses the last of his strength to reassure "Sunshine" that they can beat Blake, and to draw Elliott into the dream for support. As he reawakens in the river of Death, he hears a deep, rhythmic drumming coming from deep in Death, near the Veil. He wonders if maybe they are too late after all.

"Sunshine" finds Elliott in the dreamscape, but he is still powerless because his core has been muted by Blake. Blake finds them both and is furious. He emotionally torments "Sunshine" with memories of their fatal car accident and tortures Elliott. They concede to his demands so that he will stop. Blake offers to free Elliott if "Sunshine" will help him open a dialogue with Brachium. They agree, against Elliott's wishes.

The Medals Ceremony of the Elemental and Energetic Games is scheduled to start at 7PM. The stadium is the fullest it has been throughout the entire Games. Lasko and Milo begin the process of escorting the medals toward the stadium. Ahead of them, Asher and David guard the MVPs that will be presenting the medals. Gavin and "Freelancer" wait in the crowd at the stadium to watch Huxley and Damien receive their medals. Hudson begins announcing the closing ceremony at David's signal. In their viewing box, Vincent and Sam suddenly start to hear the rhythmic drumming that Brachium had heard earlier, but they don't know the source. In Death, Brachium's greatest fears are realized as the drumming reaches a fever pitch and a force deep in the river speaks, telling him that death has arrived. In the living world, an aperture tears open in the sky above the stadium. Shades, malevolent beings from the realm of death that drain humans of their lifeforce, begin pouring into the stadium through the portal. Chaos erupts. Gavin attempts to get the "Freelancer" to safety. Outside the stadium, Milo, David, Asher, and Lasko watch in horror, unsure of what's happening. David rushes to the control booth to find out the gravity of the situation. The people in the stadium attempt to escape onto the grounds as the shades begin their overwhelming assault on the helpless crowd. Some kind of interference disables long range communication and electronic signals in the Shades' proximity. At David's order, Milo escorts the MVPs to the safety of their van while Asher meets his Alpha in the control booth. David, Asher, and Hudson observe that the attacking force are Shades and try to make a plan before it's too late. Hudson suggests sealing the Ward, which might be able to hold them in place so they can't escape and ravage all of Dahlia and beyond. David is faced with the impossible decision to either reactivate the Ward and contain the outbreak but trap everyone in the stadium and surrounding grounds with them, or do nothing and allow the Shades to escape. He reactivates the Ward. As it prepares to seal, he rushes onto the grounds to defend anyone inside it that he can. Asher follows him in. Milo tries to follow them, but is seconds too late. The ward seals, trapping him outside and the others inside. Brachium realizes hopelessly that he was too late, and that the cause is lost. The river runs both ways tonight, with a floodtide of Shades pouring into the living world and the countless victims being taken by death.

Gavin realizes the Ward is sealing and manages to rush "Freelancer" to the outer boundary before it seals. He plans to stay and help, but is clearly in some kind of pain. "Freelancer" jumps back in just as the Ward seals, determined to stay with him. Asher and David run toward the stadium, but the interference prevents them from hearing the other Shifters through the link they usually share while shifted unless they stay close. The radios equally struggle to work at anything but short range communication, and phones can't get a signal. They commit to helping as many people as possible to escape the stadium, planning to regroup somewhere more easily defended. Lasko finds Milo and tells him that the Department has arrived. Milo rushes to meet them. Inside the Ward, Damien and Huxley fight to escape the stadium. Their position on the main stage leaves them at the epicenter of the chaos, fighting to find a way out. They are nearly lost to collateral damage in the crowded hallways by those trying to fight back against the Shades, but they manage to get outside only to realize that the Ward has been activated. Vincent is frantic to reach "Lovely". Sam steadies him and helps him use his connection to them to locate them in the chaos. They head that way. Milo meets with Commissioner Jett, who is leading the Department efforts at the disaster. Jett tells him they won't drop the Ward until sufficient demon forces arrive, because with no ability to see what is happening in the Ward, including how many Shades they are facing, he feels they will need their strength in order to stand a chance. Milo is furious and storms away, meeting up with Lasko to update him and try to reassure him.

Gavin is severely affected by the overwhelming emotions from the panicking masses, with it being drastically amplified by the sealing of the Ward turning it into an echo-chamber for the emotional energy. He struggles to use his powers to help others regardless. David and Asher continue to shepherd people out of the stadium, directing them to a position out on the fringes of the Ward where they are trying to set up a defensible position. It becomes clear that the Shades are confused by the wolves when they are in their shifted form, and David and Asher use this to their advantage. Damien and Huxley try to think of ways to repel or defeat the Shades, but have no conclusive results. Shades are intangible until they have absorbed enough lifeforce, at which point they solidify and become vulnerable to physical attacks, but that advantage only comes at a high loss of innocent life. Sam and Vincent find "Lovely" and escape outside, but find the Ward has sealed. Gavin and "Freelancer" reach the stadium and Gavin tries to use his powers to disable the Shades, but the cumulative effects of the emotional bombardment cause him to collapse. Xavier attempts to buy them time while "Freelancer" drags Gavin to relative safety. Xavier dies at the hands of the Shades. "Freelancer"'s fear ignites Gavin's core, and his powers manifest, forming a new defensive Ward within the existing one.

Milo confronts Jett about his lack of action, but is turned away again. He decides to take matters into his own hands. David and Asher struggle to establish a defensible area for the survivors they have helped move away from the stadium. The other members of the pack set up similar positions on the far side of the grounds. "Sweetheart", "Angel", and "Baaabe" all arrive at the scene separately. "Angel" runs into Lasko, who offers to take them to Milo. "Sweetheart" finds Milo, and they share a brief moment together before "Angel" and "Baaabe" arrive. Milo explains the situation as best he can, then draws "Sweetheart" aside to inform them of a plan he has come up with. Inside the Ward, many of the Shades have absorbed enough lifeforce to become solid, and in doing so, have become vulnerable to traditional attacks. Asher and David fight off another wave of them, and in the brief respite afterward assess their situation. It is dire. With no communication to the outside world, they have no idea when or if help is coming. The survivors, themselves included, are running out of magic from overuse. As the Shades grow stronger, they no longer are confused by the shifted wolves and their tactics are improving. Asher notes that David is upset with him, and though he initially denies it, David admits that he while he knew Asher would follow him in, he wishes he hadn't, because he fears for Asher's life. Asher counters that he will always follow David, not because he is his Alpha, but because he is his best friend and what they have together is more than the promise of comradery that the rest of the pack shares. They tell one another that they love each other and share an embrace before parting so that they can face the coming wave of Shades. They promise one another that this isn't the end and that they will survive this. Asher doesn't actually believe this, but he doesn't say so aloud.

Gavin's Ward within the Ward has become a focal point for the Shade's assault. While he's grateful for that on one hand, because it means that those outside of it are likely safer, it is putting him under incredible strain that threatens to destroy him. Damien and Huxley are on the run, trying to reach a defendable position with a group of survivors. A wave of Shades descends on them, and Huxley and Damien order the others to run while they try to fight them off and buy time. The Shades avoid their attacks and join with a flanking group that come together to wipe out all the remaining survivors that had been with the Elementals, despite their best efforts. Damien and Huxley, alone again and out of options, continue toward the training grounds. Vincent, "Lovely", and Sam find David and Asher's safe zone. Shaw Pack Alpha and Solaire Prince meet for the first time. Sam, Vincent, and "Lovely" commit themselves to the defense of the survivors, for which David is grateful. The situation has continued to grow worse, with almost constant assault by Shades. David is dismissive of his own injuries, but hours of constant fighting have taken a terrible toll on him. Nate Wexler, a Department officer, arrives at the control booth and informs Jett that the Ward is weakening. He asks if they are cleared to seek help from non-Department demons, but amid fears that the Chorus has been organizing attacks on Department facilities, the idea is rejected. Damien and Huxley reach the observation tower of the training grounds, but find it occupied by a Water Elemental who uses his powers to push them away, refusing to help them or share the space. Damien realizes that it's Kody and storms into the tower against Huxley's objections and confronts him. Kody admits to using his powers to secure the spot only for himself, pushing away other survivors and leaving them at the Shades' mercy. Disgusted, Damien attacks Kody until Huxley is finally able to drag him off the other man and back out onto the field. Damien fully breaks down under the strain of the horrific losses they've witnessed. Huxley manages to steady him, insisting that he's here and won't leave Damien. They head in the direction of the sounds of resistance, not knowing that it's in fact David and Asher's safe zone. Milo tells "Sweetheart" his plan to disrupt the Warders’ magic so that the Ward will fall, at which point the assembled might of D.A.M.N. and Dahlia can defeat the Shades. "Sweetheart" agrees to help.

Gavin's Ward starts to collapse as the terrible strain of the Shade's bombardment and the survivors emotional overload begins to literally tear him apart. "Freelancer" is able to ground him enough to keep him intact, barely, and the Ward holds for the time being. Milo asks Lasko to rally the students and staff of D.A.M.N. to be ready for when the Ward drops. Lasko doesn't think he can, but Milo reassures him, and he agrees. Milo attempts to go alone, but "Sweetheart" insists on joining him. Inside the Ward, the largest wave of Shades yet assaults the Shifter's hideout, pushing the defense team to their absolute limit. Vincent barely saves "Lovely" from an attack, and is flanked as a result. "Lovely" manages to drive them off him, but is caught off guard in the wake of it and is violently drained within an inch of their life. Vincent kills the Shade and tries to heal "Lovely", but it isn't working. Asher is brutally struck down by a Shade and sustains mortal injuries. David runs to him, but the damage is already done. David cries out for Sam, who appears, and begs the Vampire to help heal Asher. Sam does, channeling his own and David's remaining magic to heal Asher, who finally awakens. David breaks down in relief as Vincent calls out for Sam. Lasko uses the intercom at D.A.M.N. to try and rally everyone there to go to the Ward to help. The efforts are successful. Sam arrives to find "Lovely" dying in Vincent's arms, unable to be healed because their lifeforce has been drained. He tells Vincent the only option remaining would be to turn them. Vincent asks if that is what "Lovely" wants, saying that he will spend eternity at their side if they let him, but that he won't turn them unless it's truly what they want. They affirm that it is, and he does.

Asher and "Lovely" are moved down into the underground area that they have been defending. Sam tries to convince David to join them, but the Alpha refuses. Another wave of Shades attacks. David struggles to shift, but ignores Sam's objections and successfully transforms. The Shade's assault begins anew, and after hours of nonstop fighting, David's strength finally gives out. A strike from a Shade throws him to the ground and knocks him back into his human form, his magic completely spent. Just before it can finish him, Damien and Huxley arrive and drive them off. Damien tells Huxley to get David to safety while he holds off the next wave. Sam is overwhelmed by a Shade and only just succeeds in defeating it. He and Vincent share a brief moment, realizing that their strength and magic have been used up. The commit to bringing as many of the Shades down with them as they can, and prepare to make their last stand. Damien expends all of his remaining magic trying to keep the Shade's assault at bay, but it isn't enough. His powers run dry, and he believes it is the end. Huxley arrives back just as a Shade violently attacks the Fire Elemental, and Huxley's fury explodes into a violent earthquake that consumes the Shade and tears the earth asunder. Outside the Ward, Milo and "Sweetheart" feel the earthquake wrack the grounds, and realize that that means the Ward must be considerably weakened. Fearing the Department may find a way to reinforce it, they immediately execute their plan. Milo reveals that he plans to step into the convergence point of the Warders' magic, using his ability as a Shifter to absorb magic to destabilize the Ward. He isn't sure what the effects to his own body will be. He and "Sweetheart" share a kiss, and he steps in, unsure if he will step back out alive. It is a success, disrupting the magic and dropping the Ward. The assembled crowds successfully destroy the Shades. Jett orders that the area be secured and that all survivors are led to the triage stations. Lasko finds Huxley and Damien and helps them get to the healing stations. "Angel" and "Baaabe" reach David and Asher and they reunite. "Darlin" finds Sam, and he finally breaks down in their arms. Vincent races "Lovely" to safety. Milo regains consciousness, heavily wounded, and he and "Sweetheart" make their way outside. They successfully make radio contact with David and Asher, and he collapses in relief. Brachium comes to the realization that this act wasn't meant as an invasion, but rather as a feast, where the forces below the river of Death could gorge on the magic and energy of those who died. He wonders how much time they have left before something greater than Shades breaks free.

One hour after the Inversion disaster resolves, Vincent has "Lovely" safely back to their home and meets with William, who has been terrified for them after hearing the news. William comforts Vincent as best he can, and Vincent begs him to Invoke him like William once did to Alexis, taking away his ability to ever Invoke "Lovely". He doesn't ever want to have that power over them. William reminds him of the importance of having that ability, and Vincent agrees, but still insists that he doesn't want it, and since "Lovely" will no longer be able to lie to him due to the bond of truth inherent to the Maker-Progeny relationship, he asks that he be made to not be able to lie to them, either. William agrees, and does so.

Gavin and "Freelancer" arrive home two hours after the Inversion resolution. Gavin's injuries are severe, but mending. Caelum appears, and the widespread pain and fear tearing through all of Dahlia overwhelms him and he has a breakdown. Gavin successfully gathers enough strength to rift the Empathy Daemon back to Aria. Delphinus, Caelum's steward, takes Caelum into his care. The distance from Terra is enough to help Caelum be steadied. Gavin returns to "Freelancer" and collapses at the exertion of more magic usage. He explains that the emotional overload has made it so that the simple act of being on this plane will bring Caelum pain until things calm a bit. "Freelancer" helps him to bed, and they hold each other.

He asks to stay in their life from here on out, even just as friends. They kiss him, but he pulls away, stating in clear terms that if they do this and attempt a relationship, he’s never going to want to let them go, making his obsessive and possessive tendencies apparent. He asks that they not do this unless they are absolutely sure that’s what they want. They kiss him, accepting.

The Department releases their official statement on the Inversion disaster, noting the 1500 lives lost, the lack of leads on who could be responsible for the attack, and the assurance that they will do everything they can to investigate, provide support, and ensure safety. All large scale multi-member magical competitions, exhibitions, and experimentation are put on indefinite hiatus under suspicions that the high amounts of concentrated magic usage may have had a hand in the formation of the Inversion aperture. Permanent Department security forces will be stationed in all cornerstone cities and major academies and will supersede and integrate any existing local-government operated equivalents. Permanent surveillance and containment teams will be stationed at the formation point of the Inversion aperture in Dahlia. Entrance to that zone is restricted to approved Department personnel. Department-mandated safety and emergency response requirements and documentation will be issued to all empowered businesses, academies, and institutions, and compliance will be overseen by the Empowered Public Security Administration.

Blake arrives back at the CloseKnit facility and takes “Sunshine” down to a secure level. He explains to them that he has no actual allegiance to CloseKnit, but is instead using their resources to his advantage. He reveals that Shades are beings created by the Sovereigns trapped in Death as ways of communicating with the living, provided they absorb enough lifeforce, and explains that CloseKnit received that message and formed into what it is today as a result. In an attempt to force Brachium’s hand, Blake threatens to allow a Shade to kill “Sunshine” if he doesn’t appear in the dreamscape. Brachium concedes, and asks why Blake is doing all of this. Blake reveals that he isn’t actually a Dreamwalker, but is instead a Seer, and that no matter what he tries to change, he can’t escape visions of his friend’s death. He believes the Sovereigns can explain or prevent that. Brachium calls him a fool, but agrees to ask them on Blake’s behalf in order to keep “Sunshine” safe.

Two days after the Inversion resolution, "Freelancer" goes to see Lasko. He is packing up his office, having been awarded a promotion to the administrative board in the wake of the disaster. He is evasive when questioned about it, insisting that it doesn't matter given what everyone else went through. "Freelancer" presses him for more, and Lasko admits that he feels undeserving of the role, feeling that he was only offered it because of political machinations and posturing by D.A.M.N. in light of their dispute with D.U.M.P. over the handling of the disaster. Lasko angrily tells them to stop comforting him, saying that they need and deserve the comfort, not him. They reassure him regardless, and he thanks them for their concern. They discuss the grief counseling options that D.U.M.P. and D.A.M.N. have coordinated to provide. He affirms that he is there to help them as well, in any way that he can. Three days after the Inversion resolution, "Freelancer" meets up with Damien. Damien tells them that he is fine, having recovered from his injuries, and he has begun training again in earnest. "Freelancer" rightly expresses concern that he is overworking himself, which Damien rebukes. They push the issue, and Damien snaps, insisting that "Freelancer" has no right to tell him how to handle his grief. He breaks down, admitting that he is haunted by what he faced that night, by feelings of inadequacy, shame, and guilt, and that he doesn't know how to get back to a normal life after the things he has seen and suffered. He feels isolated even from Huxley, who he feels he owes his life to. "Freelancer" comforts him and he thanks them, and he comforts them in turn, refuting their claims that what they went through is somehow less significant than what he has faced. He adamantly tells them that pain is not a competition, and that their grief is equally important. He is scheduled to begin counseling the next day.

Three days after the Inversion resolution, David and "Angel" return home from the D.U.M.P. ceremony. David has been asked to speak at the memorial scheduled for the coming week, but he has yet to decide if he will do so. Opinions of him and the Pack are mixed but generally supportive, aided by the stories coming from the survivors that were actually there to see their heroism in person. The Department has chosen to laud the security team as heroes, but that is a mixed bag in and of itself, given the disastrous public opinion of the Department in the wake of the tragedy. David believes adamantly that the Department must have considered pinning the disaster on him and the pack, but that still would have made them look complicit for having agreed to keep the Ward up so long, so instead D.U.M.P. went the other way and lifted them as heroes with full Departmental support in a bid to get in on the goodwill. David refuses to be a mouthpiece for them. While he thinks the world is better in general for having the structure the Department provides, especially in the wake of a disaster like this where paranoia is at an all-time high, he refuses to be a PR tool for them. Though many members of the Pack sustained severe injury, they all survived, which is a further source of guilt for David. He remains tormented by the memories of what happened that night and the decisions he made, and feels like he's trapped in a loop that he can't escape and he blames himself for every life lost. "Angel" provides all the support that they can, and the two of them resolve to keep hanging on by leaning on each other.

Asher's injuries, though healed, were very severe and have left him with scars on his chest which he tries to ignore but that weigh on him heavily. Milo sends Asher a video that is circulating of an ad put out by CloseKnit in the wake of the disaster. Asher is disgusted about it and snaps, furious that CloseKnit thinks they know what was the right course of action when no one who wasn't there can say that. He confesses that he couldn't have made the decision that David made in the control booth that night. He froze when presented with the scene, and wouldn't have been able to make a decision in time if David hadn't been there to make the choice. Asher fears what might happen if a situation comes where he is the one to have to make a choice like that. All his latent fears about his inadequacy have returned at their worst, now combining with his survivor guilt to leave him utterly shaken. He recounts to "Baaabe" what it was like that night after he was too wounded to fight and was taken to the underground. No one down there believed they would survive the night, and he watched powerless as families said goodbye to one another, unable to reassure them because he thought they were right. "Baaabe" comforts him.

Huxley doesn't blame Gavin for Xavier's death, and wants to assure the Incubus that he shouldn't blame himself either. He and "Freelancer" discuss their upcoming grief counseling sessions and their support for one another. Later that evening, Gavin returns home after having to debrief the Chorus on the events of the Inversion. As the only demon that was present inside the Ward, they wanted his interpretation of events. Gavin states that while humanity and d[a]emonkind often have a rocky relationship, the Chorus was genuinely horrified to hear and experience the events of that evening through Gavin's memories, mourning the loss of life. Gavin resolves to call Huxley that evening.

Six days after the Inversion resolution, "Sweetheart" has attained the Department's private report on the events of the night. They review it with Milo, and in doing so learn that the Department's restraint was primarily motivated by the ongoing attacks and containment breaks led by daemons against their facilities, which D.U.M.P. fears may be acting at the will of the Chorus. D.U.M.P. feared (and continues to fear) that the Chorus had a hand in the Inversion itself, and that asking for aid would be playing directly into their hands and would have made the situation far worse. Though the context for their actions is interesting, Milo still finds it hard to believe that the Chorus would ever make such a move against humanity, even if they are responsible for the containment breaches. Milo instead suspects CloseKnit was involved. He remains concerned about his inability to shift into his wolf form, but believes it is just a matter of time before it returns.

He notices and calls them out on it, but they argue that with everything he's dealing with in the wake of the Inversion disaster, it feels selfish for them to ask for support over what they view as a lesser problem.

Morgan Kyne, a Seer Obscura, meets with the only other known Seer Obscura in existence, at their request. They had previously hidden their powers from the world, pretending instead to be an Illusory, but in the wake of the Inversion disaster, they have revealed themselves so that they can try to get answers. They want to know how it is possible that they didn't see the Inversion coming, and so weren't able to help prevent it. Morgan explains the limits of Sight, noting that it cannot be used to See things on other planes of existence, including Aria and Death. Sight is not a matter of predestination, but is rather an incredibly advanced form of probability, with Seers able to account for all variables on their plane to determine what is the most likely future. But since they cannot See the variables on other planes, those forces and actions don't factor into their probabilities. The Inversion came from Death, so there was no way to predict it. He offers to aid this new Seer in whatever way he can, if they want his help.
