Game Introduction

In reply to Lloyd Wilcox (msg # 2):

(Jan 1891)
Since Capt Hudson has left I find myself at a lost how to continue it seems as "N's" tentacles reach further than I thought. The disappearances continue at yet again our old adversary the Greens are at the forefront. I will follow her to France perhaps in Paris I will find more traces of where she has gone. Since the disappearance of Moriarty at the Swiss border I suspect that our French acquaintance has been selected to replace him. Unless his news friends bring him back it look like I will travelling to Paris alone more when I know it.

(March 1891)
The ides of March approach and with them they bring dark forebodings. As far as I can tell they have capture her and sent her back in chains probably to London. Who knows how far this allow their plans to move forward but she it but 1 of the 7. Perhaps more are needed to open the gate. It is clear now she disposed of Moriarty. I am sure that hack will make great grass of the incident at Reichenbach when he finds out about it whoever his sources my be. I have been dodging the Phantom my whole time here but I am sure our French acquaintance is in charge of the operation on these shores. Back to London.

(May 1891)
The search continues it is difficult to work without the captain by myself and remain hidden from the Greens. I cannot allow them to know I have returned. I have clues to the whereabouts of the Lady but have heard nothing from the remaining of the Seven. Perhaps that is for the best. Should I try to find her and stop them on my own before they succeed. The peril is great to my self and the empire although I have confidence in the captain and his new friends they are far abroad (the East?)

(June 1891)
I have decided to go in. There is increased activity of Namdaks men forces my hand. I would not wish her to lose her life in the crossfire. Despite my lack of equipment I dare not return to our home base and so I go tonight. God help me.

Night of Lunar Eclipse - article in risque tabloid that multiple people reported a strange glow over tower hamlets also reports of the same in Glastonbury. Strange shpaes were seen moving inside of weirdly lit cloud with a color impossible to describe. It was dismissed by authorities as mass hallucination by drunkards, opium, addicts, etc
