For Alen and his team, the task laid upon their shoulders was a daunting one. They were charged with uncovering evidence, hard, undeniable proof of wrongdoing. Not only against the Cerebus Guild, whose corruption had long been whispered about in alleys and dark corners, but also against the Grand Magus himself.
Already, in their investigations into the Cerebus Guild, Alen and his companions had unearthed plenty. The guild's wrongdoings were not hidden carefully or locked away behind closed doors. No, they were brazen, almost arrogant in the way they carried them out. It was as though they believed themselves untouchable, confident that no one would dare stand against them.
It was clear that nearly everything was under their thumb. Still, they were cunning. The Cerebus Guild often passed down their dirtiest tasks to guilds beneath them, smaller factions who were willing to carry out orders in exchange for coin or protection.
