I can't just wait around doing nothing Rune thought to himself and he started going trough the documents again. "I'm sure there is more here then we already uncovered." He said out loud to himself.

ST note:
Rune has now exhausted the available sources. Further rolls will not glean more info.
Rune tries to piece together what he knows, and see if there is anything else he can eke out of what he's been given.
A House, hidden by powerful wards & bans
Deliveries to an unspecified location, including 3 bodies
A sleeper business whose stationary the cargo list was written on
But anything to connect them all?
Maybe... a few symbols scrawled into the margin of a page: Atlantean High Speech. It says "Secret-Friend" which might mean friend in the keeping of secrets.
The symbol itself is shaped so that it points to indicate a name. Locke.

I'll take of the easiest clue first Rune walked out of the office and down the hall towards the room with all the acolytes.

The acolyte taps the screen three times with his finger.
A spark of magic
Forces 2/Mind 3 Effect.
The screen boots up, and windows pop open with a website and several city municipal files.
It's a funeral home and crematorium. Established in 1947. Major gas line, utilities. High tax bracket for a business in the neighborhood.

Dee walks back in. "Hey there, do the higher ups know what is going on with Archie?"
Dee wondered how the cabal normally dealt with these types of situation.

Several members of the Hoarders had gone to investigate the place where Archie had been attacked. Their best guess was that it had been Banishers, bold enough to attack in broad daylight. But they feared that they would not find anything of use, the Banishers only attacked undefended targets if they could help it.
Message had been sent to the Guardians, apparantly the Arrows no longer were in charge of protection (When did that happen??).
Or it could have simply been a mugging, but it was better to be safe.
Dee finds Rune getting ready to leave. Maybe they would find answers at the Funeral Home, or the Gas Station, or from this Locke character. It is a lot to check out.

It looks like this hidden sanctum was occupied by a Necromancer, judging by the delivery of corpses and ritual tools. Someone had to had to have been supplying the bodies though, and it's a safe bet that a funeral home would be a good place to get them. The significance of the Gas Station was still unclear, but finding this Locke person might be a good idea to find answers.

Dee explains his findings to Rune.
"So we headed to lunch? What do you feel like?" Asks Dee "Hey should we invite anyone else?" _________________ Nothing is random, we just don't understand the variables.
