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.

[ Well, he would find she's had it rough, but she's no angel though. At least you can think of her as something not unlike an honorable thief. Kinda. Most of the time. ]

Actually, I'm always hungry so you know, food would be cool. Isn't it too early for you though?

[larue]

Not really. [ A shrug. ]

Just played human punching bag for one of my best friend's classes. Worked up a pretty good sweat and appetite.

[ Yulia Bostova does not pull her punches. She also makes it clear to her students that if they do, they will likely fail her class. ]

[gawd]

Well, whatever floats your boat, right? Not judging dude.

[ And she'll prop herself up with a little kick and an unnaturally skilled roll. ]

You think we can find cake? I'm feeling like having me some cake.

[larue]

Well, you'll be happy to know that there is usually cake in the Hall.

[ Among other things.

Pushing himself to his feet now and then offering a hand up. ]

[gawd]

Yay cake.

[ She takes his hand and hauls herself up easily. ]

Lead the way, teacher guy.

[ Chuckling softly now, and then leading Mina in the general direction of the communal mess area that she's probably been to a couple of times since she got to Falner. One thing about the Great Hall -- it rarely runs out of people. At the centermost area, the Malice Kings' table usually had one or two of Netsach's leading blade in attendance, and off to one side is the table he and the Hounds used to occupy often enough.

It's occupied at present, so while his gaze lands in that general direction for a moment, he opts to make a beeline for the buffet table lined with food trays.

The cakes are down thataway, Miss Dean. Feel free to grab some for yourself while he piles some of the local fare onto a plate.

He'll join you at one of the free tables soon enough. ]
