"The Heist"
Encounter between the Hydaelyn Protectors, THIEF & Croix
Kasi had heard there was some small vigilante group operating outside of the Goblet in Ul'dah, and where there was a freelance police force, there were confiscated goods. With the coffers of the Coven always needing more gil for continued expansion, Kasi rallied the Coven thieves and set them to a high-stakes bait-and-switch task: to draw the vigilantes out of hiding by staging a mugging down the street, stall them, and while they were occupied, one of the Coven thieves would infiltrate the hideout, case the place for valuables, and loot whatever they could fit into their pockets. Kasi ventured into their headquarters, claiming to be a 'passer-by' who had witnessed the mugging in progress- and the trap was sprung.
Unfortunately, the Coven bait team was overrun in fairly short order and captured, but the Coven thieves were able to successfully case and loot the headquarters before withdrawing without incident. While Kasi had originally planned to wait until the Coven members were in the Brass Blade's prison to bribe them free, an unexpected turn of events took place: a friend of one of the thieves who carried influence with the Brass Blades arrived. The fellow had no subtly to his corruption, and intimidated the Brass Blades to set the Coven muggers free- in front of the vigilantes, who were livid. A short standoff ensued, but the vigilantes had little choice but to accept the outcome... for now.Â
"A Crossing of Roads"
A small gathering between THIEF and the Shroudwolf Clan's families
It had been a while since Kasi had hosted one of her 'Meat' & Greets for her Miqo'te clan family back home, and she saw little reason not to combine this occasion with an outing to a new locale: the Coven Tavern. There, members of THIEF met with some from Shroudwolf, in a brief crossing of the roads.
