1.6b -- The SIberian Express -- Nov.11th, 1908 (Davin)
Only a small girl, of only two or three years of age, saw his arrival with wide eyes through the falling snow. She tried to tug on her mother's coat, but couldn't get the woman to listen to her, as the woman was scolding the train station ticketer for some perceived wrong.
A moment later he was on the train however and it would make no difference. Onboard the train the load of passengers had lessened greatly. He could see something interesting was going on in the tea car however, a loud raucous game of poker was being played with limited coinage.
Elsewhere down the line, Miss Blankenship's mind seemed to be racing through a dream with myriad thoughts, both good and ill. They were muddled though, images of a tutor of magical theory, a group of men, and currently, a striking woman dressed in some sort of occult accoutrements.
Then a surprising hand on Davin's shoulder startled him back to his own body. It was a very slick-looking man of mid-twenties. His mustache was an immaculately groomed pencil line. Davin finds it difficult to read his mind, which seemed to be full of cobwebbed thoughts. His young female companion though was full of racy thoughts and muddied with liquor. The man asks quietly, quizzically, his eyes made direct eye contact, "Are you one of my brothers? You seem...familiar."
