第 048 Episode| Brought Before the Boss

Lika is brought into the innermost chamber of Beyond the Line to meet its underground king — Goran. A boss who lives off rift goods, yet on his desk sits a feed wired to the high levels of the surface; and he names, lightly, the thing Lika came down to find. "I'm no mind-reader. Someone — someone who stands higher than me — told me to watch for an unmeasurable one slipping down into the undercity. You're two days early." The undercity isn't just a black market: someone is waiting for Lika — and not from behind this desk, but from higher up.
