Chapter 9 IC: The Road Less Traveled
Vanyra and Yuu head to the Daedalum University to find their employer and ask about getting their wine analyzed. The university it turns out has a number of different campuses in the city-state, and checking the details of the contract it specifies their contacts are in the Central Campus some distance from the harbor area they're in now. A Dr. Salis Vanhaak of the Department of Archeo-technology and Dr. Nami Ulaar of the Department of Archeo-Socio-engineering are leading the expedition. From the area of their hotel the Central Campus is about 60km inland, and is accessible via a high-speed tram system with stations located throughout the city. Within 30minutes they get to the quite large Central Campus, which reminds Yuu much of the Royal Academy back in Ossylia though the architecture is radically different, the buildings hear appear to be made either of some sort of metal or polished ceramic or stone. Everything has a rather minimalist and sleek appearance.
After some time walking about and asking for directions from students and staff, who seem curiously surprised at the presence of such foreigners, they manage to find the building that houses both of the expedition leads.
Meanwhile Zelpuz heads off to the local chapter of the Order of Ashes to report in, after confirming to meet up after at the Central Campus tram station. The chapter office is located near the port area as to be expected. It is notably smaller than many of the other offices he's visited, but as Daedalum is quite smaller geographically and an extremely homogeneous population incidents with renegade Mespah are no doubt rare. The Chapter Master is glad to see another member of the Order, though he wasn't expecting anyone; they do not get many new faces. He inquires as to the purpose of the visit, and can provide a basic overview of the city, both positives and negatives.
