"There are four Cabals active in the city right now. The Golden Thread is a pretty tight trio headed up by Aquinas, the b... Hierarch. He's teamed up with two of the veterans of this place."
He paused to run a finger under his nose. "Fateful Watch is headed up by Miach. He's an Acanthus too. Not quite sure yet what they plan to do as they are quite new. Veiled Threats are the largest cabal in town; they are headed up by Avis and have interests in West Sacramento. Arthur here, is a member of the Threats. And lastly, there are the Temoins du Sud - the Southern Witnesses. My crew. We hang out in South Sacramento and tend a few blocks over that way."
