The first ring of true battle erupts in the cemetary fault, and first blood is spilled. And second, and third, and twenty seventh. Two hundred and eighty and one hundred and fourty and twelve meet their ends before swords are first uncrossed. Sixteen and one and two remain to contend with three and two and One, and None have yet bled needfully. This part always makes me nervous, no matter how many times I watch it. But I believe in them.

Vampire the Masquerade: A Pain That I'm Used To Session 6 - Where's the Revolution?

Vampire the Masquerade: A Pain That I'm Used To Session 6 Bonus

The chosen three are called to action days in advance of their deadline so as not to tempt fate. They break to tie up a few loose ends and say some final goodbyes and, as ready as they can be, rejoin their greater numbers to commiserate and plan. Unfortunately, their mortal foe would rather this all resolve without raising their sword, and so instead brings down the hammer. I'm so excited for Chapter Five; even after ten million iterations, it never gets old.
