Kyle had been wondering the streets of London for hours. Luckily it wasn't late enough in the year for it to get too cold, but the fog that permeated the streets made it a bit dreary. The email he had gotten from the Prophet's Taskmaster had mentioned a heretical order in the city, but they had little information about it. It had ordered him, and several other Acolytes judging by the address bar on the message, to England to locate and study the order of Fae worshipers and inform the Prophets about them so that they could guarantee minimal casualties when eliminating the Fae group.
Without more information to go on Kyle had no choice but to search the city for some trace of the group. After two and a half hours of wondering he sensed something from a restaurant and went inside. There he grabbed a booth and looked around for the source of the feeling. When he saw the waitress near the kitchen, he knew he had located it. Fae energy came off of her in waves. She must be a member of the group, having recently used Fae magic. he assumed. He pulled out his phone and quickly emailed the other members of the order that were sent on the mission, telling them he had found a lead and sending them the address.
"What can I get you?" the waitress asked in an Irish accent when she got to his table.
"I'll have friends joining me soon, but I guess that since I'm in London I've got to order Fish n' Chips at least once, so how about that."
"You've got it." she said. After he finished his order she took it back to the kitchen and returned with a basket of fish and fries, along with a large soda. "Here's your food." she said, then pointed to his necklace. "So you're into the runes?"
"Yeah," he said, hoping to draw her in. "I've studied them a bit."
"So is it just for luck, or what?" she asked.
"Well, It was my mom's actually." He said, making up a cover story on the fly. "She was from a family of psychics. I got it when she died. My aunt told me that it would amplify my psychic powers, and I guess it's working because I just knew I needed to come in here."
She smiled. "Maybe you are psychic, then. I've got to get back to the kitchen, but I'll be back whenever your friends get here."
"Sure" Kyle said, knowing she wanted to hear more about him. "Maybe we can talk later." She nodded and walked off.
