Mission 12: A Proper Introduction

Prelude

Following the theft of a chest prized and guarded by the White Veil Society, the Veil War re-ignited. More to come in between these statements. Now, Sesus Akida sees the Eye of Autochthon as a way to unite the Seventh-Legion and the Nexus city-state, effectively forming a Confederation of Rivers nation. He has begun initiating a meeting between the Seventh-Legion's high command, the Council of Nexus, and the Emissary to discuss a permanent strategic alliance, which would effectively make the two city states a single nation and arguably the most powerful entity in Creation. Akida has done this by reaching out to Karal Matsudo, but there a few obstacles to the deal - namely, a few Councilors from Nexus who vehemently oppose the deal. Knowing that having the full might of Nexus and Lookshy directed at finding the Eye would likely lead to success, Matusdo contacts the Grass-Spiders to deal with these Councilors. He sweetens the deal by noting that putting the Eye in the hands of the Confederation of Rivers would likely shatter the ambitions of the White Veil Society and end the Veil War, leaving the Grass Spiders victorious. Of course, nothing is ever so simple.
