"They don't," sighs the angel, sitting on the table. "But I have need of services which I can't go to the local temples to fulfill, and as such I asked for you."
"Interesting. What's the job?" He asks, leaning on the wall slightly

The woman signals with her hand and the smirking young guy shuts the door, leaving you in private. "I need you to handle a cult for me. They've.... they worship a devil, a denizen of a place called Baator. I want them culled, and I want it done quietly."
*Since this is Ybrean, none of you know what Baator is ofc*

"I see... and where shall we find this cult?" He looks to the others, "Should you all accept this job aswell."

"You want us to kill? I knew it, this is exactly what I thought it'd be, and I want to part in it." Jan shakes his head. "Not honest. I don't do not-honest work."

"I'm afraid I don't know," sighs the angel. "But Jonah here," he indicates the woman behind the desk, "Tells me an associate of hers has a potential lead?"

"Or you could let them live, inviting the devil into the city. I think you'd get quite a lot of business, when the innocent bodies started mounting up."

"Oh no, you don't get to leverage that onto me. I am not obligated to do this kind of work whatsoever. Why don't you just report this to the authorities? They can handle it better than some mashed together ragtag team of strangers and civilians."

"Ah. That is the one thing we do know," pipes up Jonah. "One among their number is a prominent member of a noble house. The authorities will turn a blind eye if one of their own is involved, you know how it is."

"The involvement of a prominent noble, and rumours of an upcoming incident at the opera house. We don't know what, but I fully expect the cultists to make an appearance."
"We're not sure. And I didn't realise you were naive enough to place any trust in the authorities." *For the record, absolute distrust of the police is the norm here. They essentially exist to violently keep order in the lower city, to maintain economic output*

He smiles, then hides said smile after a moment, "Well then, it seems we know where to stake out, or atleast watch."
