In the majestic city of Lindblum, a strange murder has just been committed. Ritualistic and brutal, without a bit of trace evidence yet as to the perpetrator, the police are left stunned. Is this a one time event or are the nights going to grow ever more dangerous for the citizens of Lindblum?
The Constable has called in Lillith, an associate of his, to help with the investigation and talk to the victim's son, Oliver, a rowdy street urchin and local youth gang member, who despises police. Hopefully he could provide some insight as to why his mother was attacked or if there has been word out on the street about other killings not yet found of this nature.
There is no plans to interfere with Galeon's story, this one will be slow in the beginning as everyone must follow the clues and evidence to track down the killer and discover his hidden motives.

For those of you who need a little refresher, here is what's happened so far, and what's happening right now since the group split up.
Dali: Lillith and the others were joined by two unexpected old friends; Rainii and Jas. Together they put what they knew about the Harvester together and came to a steady conclusion that August has somehow returned from the gateway and is masterminding the killings. After heading to the Crowlith Chantry to do more research, they discovered August's old mentor's ties to Professor Von Karma and the sign in yellow, as well as a mysterious entity called Locsel Kuth. They returned to Dali to find a horror beyond imagining. August has used the parts collected from the various victims to create a doppleganger of Rainii. Using her version of Rainii's magic, it successfully stole the Book of the Twilight, and is making its way back to Lindblum right now to deliver it to her master.
Lindblum: During a night of festivity (Festival of St. Stephen) an appearance of a monstrous figure dubbed so far as The King in Yellow, compelled Iole and Kenny to follow it outside. However what they found were the bodies of a prominent gang leader and his mistress, the latter torn open in a far sloppier fashion than that of the Harvester. This sparked a riot that has been raging in Lindblum between the gangs. Iole, Kenny, and Oliver were saved with some unexpected help from Nurse Takano who provided refuge in the apartment she's been renting. But after hearing the Harvester's true identity, Oliver broke away from the group to exact his revenge. Iole and Kenny tracked him to August's "clinic" only to be ensnared in a fiendish trap; a labyrinth of illusion. While Kenny was rescued from his waking nightmare by a very unprecedented return, Oliver was tricked into nearly killing Iole (who was saved by some quick thinking from Adrian and further help from Takano). After the illusions faded, the one behind them was revealed to be none other than Echidna, still very much alive and as crazed and dangerous as ever. Now shaken and wounded, the group tries to catch their breath back at Takano's apartment. That is until an unwelcome visit from Captain Ames who tells them that the police have calmed the riots and are evacuating the city as a precaution. But even more shocking; along with the ringleaders of the gang riots, Ames claims to have the Autumn Harvester in custody. Has August really been captured, or does Ames have the wrong man? And other details of the conspiracy have yet to be revealed.
