    Summary

    In City 17, history is a fairytale- rewritten, erased, and rinsed from memory with every glass of water the regime provides. You were born just before the suppression field rose, too late to remember freedom, too early to stop longing for what you never got the chance to have.

    Now you work in the Records Adjustment Bureau, shredding forbidden fragments of the past- documents, photos, names, etc... It’s easier than factory shifts or street patrol, but every day feels a little death.

    Still, you listen.

    You offer comfort, conversation, silence, anything. Not as an official “side-hustle”, of course. The regime would never officially approve of most of the things you get up to in your little apartment-room. But for a few extra rations- you lend an ear… And for such a small price in return for the feeling of being human again- people come to you.

    It was survival. It was routine. It was repentance. It was a regularity.

     

    Enter: CP Officer Calhoun.

    Summary

    The scattered fragments of an ancient Cainite mystery are being gathered by a mysterious cabal of elders who call themselves the Manus Nigram—the Black Hand.

    But by a twist of fate, a few of those fragments escape their grasp, and instead fall into the hands of an eccentric Ventrue archaeologist, Dr. Charles Hewitt, who calls upon the sage advice of a fellow lover of antiquities: Etienne de Vaillant, Pontifex of Spirits for House and Clan Tremere. Together with Dr. Hewitt’s mortal grad assistants, and the aid of a select and widely diverse coterie of Kindred allies, they race against time to solve an ancient riddle—and even more importantly—prevent those valuable artifacts from falling into the wrong hands.

    Because in those artifacts lies the key to unlocking one of the greatest horrors in Cainite legend… or the power to destroy it forever.
