A shot rings out and Dr. Lucius Leggett falls to the ground. Our heroes must spring into action before they are next. Where did that shot come from? Is Deacon here? What does he want? It doesn't matter. All that matters is getting inside this door and out of immediate danger, but what do those markings on the wall mean? And why do I get the unsettling feeling that I'm being watched? Oh no. Perhaps death by Deacon was the better option...

With the Phoenix Pham fulfilled with pies, drugs, and hanky panky (maybe that was just Micah) we find our heroes traveling out into the wastes, in search of the mysterious True AI that talked to Nona in Wickliffe. What might they hope to find at those coordinates? Is this True AI involved in Wickliffe's thwarted schemes? And why do I hear hooves?

The Phoenix Pham all just had a shared hallucination, those things from the Warehouse in Jade are back...what were those things again? Nona needs to spring into action as the only salient person against this threat. Are they actually here on Phistos? What would they come here for? And dear lord, Micah, how much Brainwave can you take?

Nursing the wounds opened by an impromptu dream walk and prophecy, our heroes meet to investigate the throne room of Wilhelm Restikov and discuss next steps. Who was controlling Wilhelm Restikov? What is their end game? And do they have anything to do with the entity in the wastes? Before these questions can be answered though, it's time to celebrate our very own "Marked for Death" NPC's retirement!

Well that was one bad dream that Alix would like to forget, but unfortunately for him it was one he shared with his fellow Phoenix crew mates. How will Micah react to this revelation? Will Alix be able to keep down his breakfast? And will Nona understand what's going on?...No, the answer to that last one is definitely "no".

Wilhelm is dead at the Phoenix Pham's feet, but somehow things don't feel finished. Our heroes are victorious and are preparing to reap the rewards of their labors, but there are so many open questions. With Wilhelm's ambitions, why would he take his own life? Who was this bigger threat he was talking about? And what happened to Picledes?

After disposing of the Restikov daughter, there is no one standing between the Phoenix Pham and their new goal: Wilhelm. To confront him they must ride the elevator to the top floor of Wickliffe, only then might they be able to put a stop to this madness once and for all. What awaits our heroes on the top floor? Will they be able to stop Wilhelm? And will they finally be able to rest after this arduous (but lucrative) mission?

Nona, through her connection to Wickliffe, feels another mind controlling the instruments and machines of Wickliffe. It reaches out moving instruments in a deliberate pattern to spell out "Sister?". Who is this other entity and where are they located? Are they friend or foe? Before the answer to those questions can be found the Phoenix Pham get a call from Aleta. There's been an addendum added to the plan and our heroes must rush to their next goal before it's too late!

The Phoenix Pham are riding the elevator up to the Mining Hub of Wickliffe, where they hope to find the core and open the front doors to let the full assault of Wickliffe to begin. What will they find in the underbelly of Wickliffe? More human rights violations or grotesque technology? Will they learn more about the fall of the city? And do you hear all that metallic skittering or is that just me?

With one Restikov kin down it sounds like there are still a few lurking about, one of which is trying to reach his currently tied up brother. How will the Phoenix Pham deal with this new nuisance? Has their infiltration of Wickliffe finally been uncovered? And if one has a cybernetic weapon that is a part of their body, where is the ammunition stored?
