<Eris and Drifter team. They know what's what and have connections. Mara is a hack, Calus is currently unhelpful due to his views, the City's full of people that can't accept change, the Traveler's wrong, the Darkness is trying to kill us, Mithrax is nice but his distrust of Variks skews my view, Variks is nice but he let the Fanatic mess with him too much, the three Consensus factions refuse to come together, etc.>
