"Fair assumption is that they're Spring, given what we've seen so far. They've got their fingers in everything in Vegas -- which I'm sure I don't need to tell you about, Sun Banisher," she said, her eyes flicking about the laboratory as she started to think about the political situation and the flashes of insight she had taken from the Sniff. She didn't catch any clues, but that was okay. She had a team for that. "But for Oren, Spring's middle nobility is basically run by narcos. Sir Chugunkin is the center of the web. Russian mob, here forever. Kind of the power behind the throne. Zhi is his right hand, a violent motherfucker who will come for your family if you cross him." Looking to Fawkes, she said, "I don't buy Piper for this, and Eurydice is in your motley, so..." Good odds the Sage Escort wasn't on for this.
She checked the obvious places next - their pockets, looking for wallets, cell phones, or anything of interest. "Next up, you've got a more peaceful thief named Ruben, who flies under the radar. Criminal, hiring cross-Court rookies to help him in exchange for the benefit of his networks."
She moved some labware about as she searched. "Finally, you've got Stheno, the Gorgon, is siphoning off the entertainment industry. She has many identities, the kind of shit that gives her cover as she moves around so as to not attract our attention. She thinks of herself as a big shot. A lyre snake tracks. These people might well be hers. We'll have to confirm, but I think that's our lead. What concerns me is that a friend of mine wants to work for her, and she's got an Avowed lover who is definitely Stheno's agent."
Kai looked to Oren. "You see anything? Anything to add?"
