1. First Day At Falner
You have just arrived at Falner Estate, a sprawling, beautiful, 400-hectare co-located space between Britain, Germany, and the Philippines, and the main base of Netsach. The flora and fauna in the area gives both a sense of familiarity as it looks at first glance like things you’ll find on Earth, and a weird sense of otherworldliness. Given the size of the place, the Estate is less of a compound and more like a town unto itself. The older buildings within the estate are gothic in their construction, and clear throwbacks to 19th Century Europe. The newer facilities, however, sport cutting edge contemporary designs that were clearly inspired by Fourth World architecture and technology.

If you want a better idea on what can be found on the estate, you can refer to this link.


2. A Day On The Job
You are pushing papers at Methuselah, doing research at the Arcanum, or going out on patrol -- whatever it is that you're doing, it's just another day for you as a Hunter of the Vigil.


3. Let's Head Down to Haven
Find yourself itching for a night out on the town? Why not head over to Haven, the classy nightclub that looks like a large, monolithic black building with no visible windows from the outside and the name of the club emblazoned in bold, white letters on one side.

Haven is located in Makati City, and is open to the public (especially the local supernatural community), but you might want to prepare yourself to wait in line for a very, very long time – unless you’re a Hunter, of course.

Falner’s Maenad Division holds office on top of Haven, as does Ordo Daywalker. Some of Haven’s staff also live above the night club.

If there is something Sophie's good at is making people mad. She's had a lot of practice with her family after all.

{I'd rather not have to inhabit someone with the regrettable disadvantage of missing limbs, so if you could refrain from inciting this stranger...}

Sophie's also ignoring the slightly disproving voice in her head. Her hands curl at her waist, where her katana is currently missing.

"You look perfectly under control, though."

"I've had years of practice," she smirks. Three years, plus that one Arcadian year. Four, technically. That, and her Singer was her sister, so... that made it a little easier. They got along.

She notices the other bladian's hand at her waist. "Itching for your blade? I'm up for a spar, if you are."

That was why she was here, too. A spar, and then some. Maybe the new kid wouldn't be such a disappointment.

"Seems like I'm not the only one itching."

It was a terrible idea. The girl was thinner than her, shorter than her. Perhaps only slightly older than her, but Sophie had been around enough fighters to know when she was outclassed. And yet, sometimes you just needed to get into a good beatdown and let it all happen.

"I am up for a spar, now that you mention it." Yes, a terrible idea.
