Half Moon 27
Kat walks into the room where the technicians work. A man greets her.
"I surprised you came to see us, not many field hunters think about us."
Kat looks around the room while replying, "You gather information so the best place to look for info would be here."
The technician nods, "We have set aside a room for you. It has a computer and some paper documents."
He leads her to the room. Which holds a table and chair and a board to write on, plus a computer of to one side and boxes which are stacked against the wall.
"If you need anything else let us know," He says.
Kat nods and the technician closes the door. Kat sighs and opens a random box, inside are folders filled with papers.
Not knowing what else to do, she pulls out folders and looks through them. They contain information on past Alterations: where they were seen, who fought them, what powers they had, etc. She pays more attention to the higher level files, checking to see if there was anything useful.
After several hours she has gone through most of the boxes and hasn't found anything of use. Sighing, she stares at the papers gathered before her. The most common Alterations were of a B or C level, the next was A and D, with the rarest being E.
There are only four-level E's out of the twenty or so boxes she had opened so far. Kat picks up the papers connected to the E's and puts them on the board.
"Every time an E has shown up lots of people have died, including hunters," She mutters, "Maybe the Queen is an E."
Putting all thoughts of E's aside, Kat turns her attention to the D papers. It's then that she notices that all higher-level Alterations were old. Curious, she looks through the papers again and confirms her thought. Not all old Alterations were high level, but all high levels were old.
There is a knock, and the door and Kat looks up to see Cade. Opening the door, she says, "What a surprise. I don't think you've ever voluntarily set foot in this place."
Cade smiles, "I came to see how you were doing."
Kat sighs, "I've learned some things, but none of them are particularly helpful. I think the Queen might be a level E and she's probably old but other than that I've got nothing."
Cade looks at the board where papers containing the E's, and several D's are placed, "Have you grouped them by area."
Kat shakes her head.
"Let's do that then, we might get a starting point from that."
Kat asks for a map, and after the technicians bring her one, they start mapping. They go through the rest of the boxes and soon they have a map with red dots for E and blue dots for D.
"The biggest clusters are around these two abandoned towns," Kat points out.
"Then we have a lead. All that's left is to get Silias to let go back into the field," Cade replies.
"If you need anything else let us know," He says.
