It was a risk
But there is no victory when there is too much caution. We needed to draw the Church of Blood's forces to us, while they were still reeling from their losses in Chicago. We had to make them believe they could defeat us.
It is peculiar, to fight with a lie. Almost I understand why humans favor such as weapons.
But we succeeded. We could not know when they were watching, and though we had bound ourselves in as complete a veil of secrecy as Raven and Tempest could provide, we had to play our parts as if they were truth. Raven had said that she felt a kind of connection to that vile Brother Blood, and that we could use that against him. And so we did. We tugged on that bond, that line, and his dogs came baying for our blood. Let them now hunt their own kind, in a place where they will find no other game.
