"Helmawr's Teeth! What is she doing here?" Cursed Oberon as he lowered his scope.

The Rise of the Regulators - Death at Tumbledown Rise
"We're all clear on what we need to do then? Asked the Escher leader.
"We get the Dredger into the Sump and cover him while he searches the depths." Intoned the rest of the Regulators drearily.
Brigitte nodded adding "Once he's completed his survey we haul him out and get back to Sanctuary. Now gear up and let's move out."
Howling Mad Mave donned her Hazard Suit before WR-41-TH helped her into her Jump Booster.
"Hey Ludwig! How come ya don't bother with any armour? Inquired the Orlock Prospect.
"Because he's a fool" mumbled Oberon.
"I walk in His divine shadow...Something the Witch would know nothing of!" replied the Redemptionist glaring at the Psy-Gheist. "I could walk naked through a hail of fire with only my faith to protect me and emerge untouched."
"Think I'll stick with me Hazard Suit, if that's ok with you? Grinned Mave.
"His will is known to me!" Continued Ludwig. "He has spoken to me... He said I would be shown my destiny...by a painted woman." His words echoed off of the walls, seeming to come from everywhere at once.
'He's quite the sense of theatre.' Thought Brigitte 'I suppose all Redemptionists do.'
"He told me the time, and the place, and the manner of my death. He whispered it, and made me swear to keep it a secret. So I cannot tell you where it will be, but it is not here, and it is not now."
"Well this painted woman says enough with the sermon and let's get our arses to Tumbledown Rise and find out what these components are for!" interrupted Brigitte...

The Rise of the Regulators - Caravan Heist
This close to the Hive shell the settlement was deserted. The Authorities had evacuated the area claiming the settlement was unsound after the Hive Quakes started but judging by the bullet holes and blood stains the 'evacuation' hadn't been entirely voluntary.
Reluctant to break the eerie silence Brigitte merely nodded as each of the Regulators moved into position and readied themselves for the ambush. The atmosphere had grown grim as they had moved through the settlement. Howling Mad Mave's usual exuberance had ebbed away with each passing minute. Ludwig sat crossed-legged, eyes closed, craddling his Chainaxe, his lips silently moving offering up prayer. Even Grimy had lost his usual bravado although Brigitte wasn't sure if it was because he was still recovering from his injuries or it was the pervading atmosphere.
'I've seen more life in a Corpse Starch processing plant' thought Brigitte. 'Is this the route they will take? Is this the time? Have they realised we've been listening in on them...'
The unmistakable sound of an approaching vehicle shattered the silence along with the Escher leader's doubts. A grin spread across her face 'The waiting is always the hardest part.'

"We've been walking for hours in this stinking hole and this is the first door that we've come across" replied Grimy.
"The door is barred from the other side. If you break it down you risk bringing the whole hive down on us....or worse."
The old prospector stopped before an arch panelled wall and deftly ran his hand along the crumbling and rotten plaster. "Now, just where are you hiding" he mumbled to himself.
'The old prospector's drunk one too many bottles of Second Best' thought Brigitte.
There was an audible CLICK.
And nothing happened.
No fetid wind spilled out, no stench of rot or decay, no sign of long years passed, only a waft of cool, dry air. 'And yet the feeling is of opening a coffin.' thought Brigitte as they stepped into the gloom.

WR-41-TH and Howling Mad Mave of the Regulators
That's it for now. I'm busy typing our latest instalment of our Rise of the Regulators adventure which will be a two-part report simply because Zone Mortalis bat reps are a bit of a bugger to type out and make sense of. Hopefully that will be posted tomorrow.
