The dingy apartment room was quiet. It was a dilapidated place to begin with-the glowpanels didn’t work and there was barely running water. The fact that large amounts of gear, bedrolls, and supply packs had been strewn across the room for the last few weeks had helped disguise the torn up and shredded state the floor was in. However, all of that was neatly packed away into a series of identical black bags stacked against one wall. Six individuals, all armed, waited patiently, watching the door, while another peered out the side of the tiny apartment’s one window. Finally, there was a knock on the door and, after a quick check of their identities, two more individuals were admitted to the room.
