New Identity(Steven Chojun Trueheart)
Kaze snaps alert from an expression of slightly distracted, troubled concentration to look at the group, "Sir, there's a patrol car that just called it in, heading this way to check things out. It was already in the area, and might be here any minute." Kaze says, probably addressing Alastor, but possibly Winter. "Just one guy in the car spoke on the radio, sounded...older."

Winter feels his spell take effect. Knowledge seems to sleep slowly to the forefront of his conscious. There is little to do with his new knowledge, however. The two unknown mages are dead.

He's quiet, the weight of his hubris and the post-adrenaline blues heavy on his soul. "Yeah, please do", he says, flipping the USB stick into Sand's hands. Evil is evil, lesser, greater, necessary, it makes no difference. Tonight they had killed, again.
He can't pry his eyes away from the gory remains that once upon a time were a living man, but no more. He'd picked the swiftest means, but with that came the unnecessary collateral cost in human life. Worse, unless that data was evidence of the contrary, he couldn't rule out that they had just murdered two innocents. Nobody is truly innocent. He thought, and those people made their choices, that's what war is, after all.
"Stupidity happened", was his blasé reply to the Moros', "let's clean this mess up, thank you".
He hated killing.
Inventory: lighter, cigarettes, magic tool (rosary), wedding band, Kevlar Vest (thin), brass knuckles.

In the moments between rushed orders and handling the clean-up, the weight of the First Talon's actions settled in on him. He'd done what he did to that man out of his strong sense of Justice. He had a code. His duty was to protect the Mages of the Consilium, and he'd done precisely that. The second that enemy spellslinger had popped claws, what he had to do was clear.
But there was Hubris in the wanton use of Magic for violence. Hubris that the Arrow knew he would have to come to terms with, to remember so that he wouldn't fall off the wagon. There was a path some Talons took, the path of concluding that using something so perfect as the Art for warfare casually was okay. It had to get done, sometimes. They had to Employ Magic Strategically. But they could never, ever lose sight of the fact that doing so had costs.
The second it didn't bring you pause, make you think, give you a pang of regret... that was the second you needed to check yourself.
successful wisdom draw, should have been 3 dice but deducting from the right still good

Are we finished here?
To my mind on Alastor and Winter needed to make checks for Wisdom loss.
Langdon and Sand had not done anything to challenger their Wisdom.
Kaze was imply reckless :P
And you still have a sympathetic lock on the Mystery Woman through Alastor's magic.
It has been one crazy scene and its time to put it into Continuity.

Re: everything being matter
Alastor =/= wrong.
But also... Alastor = wrong.
However, w/ another correct statement re: presence such a correction/debate = stupid.
A nod. A catch.
USB drive physically light. Did not feel that way in hands.
I think we are mostly good. Sand wants to see what was on the drive and then very much leave. I threw the rolls for that below but if it needs to be a glimpse thing because it will take the time to 'read' it, I can transfer to a glimpse post
And because I can't use the dice roller ... total dice should be 7 for this roll...

A nod as ascent is given. Chanted Broken Atlantean forms into a rigid glyph as Mana bleeds from Langdon to ease the Abyss and keep it away from necessary work. Seconds slip by as Time Langdon notices but doesn't Comprehend, not like this. Not like this glyph. This one is personal.
As his chanting comes to an end the brown glowing glyph splits and splits again. Four separate identical glyphs slice to their targets, each corpse and each of the cars.
Langdon "bleeds" 6 essence over two turns to help mitigate Dox because we breaking reality. Other than this I'm good to wrap!
Annihilate Matter no dox!, 2 suxx to Annihilate Matter on both cars and both corpses
