Almost six months prior, Magus Weavebreaker of the Adamantine Arrow had assembled a group of five Mages together, to form a Cabal. That Cabal had later gone on to talk at a picnic table in a park, and become the Temoins du Sud. They'd gone through a little bit of a rocky period, with Gyges and Damascus leaving, but Einstein still believed they had Weavebreaker to thank for starting the original meeting.
In honor of the Temoins almost-six-month anniversary, Einstein had decided it was time to host another one. She'd heard of a few new Mages bursting into town, so it just seemed right to grab them all in one room together, and tell them to start a Cabal.
In the interest of that, Einstein had put up flyers about town, and sent out messages, getting the message to the Solitaires that she was hosting a party at the Sanctum, to form up Cabals. She set up the living room, moving some things around and setting out some basic finger foods, then stood outside the front door and waited for people to show up.
