Silence of Time update

Scylla and Reese jumped the tracks and chased after the large werewolf, pausing to call Zeke and Phil (Tom's player has officially dropped out, but more on Tom's fate later). They tried talking to the werewolf, but while he seemed to understand them, he apparently couldn't communicate. They learned that he wasn't from Philly and had done some time, and Reese started to school him on proper Uratha behavior (like not eating people) when he flew into Death Rage and attacked.

Zeke and Phil arrived at that point, but Zeke almost immediately entered Death Rage as well, and attacked the Mexican werewolf. Scylla followed suit, attacking Reese. Phil dropped back and looked around, knowing that his packmates seldom lost control like this, and saw the werewolf with the hatchet hiding on the staircase (using the Blending Gift). He shot this werewolf, and Reese changed form and attacked.

The battle raged for a few minutes, but the Mexican werewolf fled under Zeke's attacks. The hatchet-dude used Silver Jaws to cut Reese up, and then fled. The Harmony pack (whom Phil had called) showed up and loaded everybody into their car (after Zeke and Scylla calmed down), and took them to a safe place so that their alpha could use the Rite of Healing and prevent Reese from dying.

Zeke used Shared Scent to pass the blood of the Mexican werewolf around, and included one of the Harmony pack in the rite. Then they headed home for sleep.

Scylla dreamed of the house with the strange fungus. She dreamed the house was sick and was spitting up the wet, horrific-smelling sludge they'd seen in the subway tunnels. In fact, in her dream, there was a subway tunnel opposite the house. She entered it and got on the train, and saw her sister sitting there. Her sister had no eyes, just sockets filled with fungus. She said, "I have what you wanted."

Waking, Scylla was obviously distraught. She went with Zeke to the fungus house, but didn't find anything new. They also checked in at the culinary school where Tom was teaching, but he hadn't been there in days. His stuff was still at Phil's house, though, so the pack is thinking foul play.

Meantime, Reese went to visit the DEA and get his car back. An agent named Hank Gilelli questioned him about wolf fur and blood in his car, but he had answers (which were mostly true). He got his car, and his axe, back, and headed home to find Scylla wanting to search out her sister. The decision, though, was to find the hatchet-man and his pack, because they're pretty obviously bad (though the current consensus is that the pack can be saved, while the hatchet-man needs to die). They're going on that hunt next time, and taking the Rahu from the Harmony pack, who's skilled in getting Uratha out of Death Rage, with them.

actual play, silence of time
