Rewards spoiler

'Prowler Accosts Respectable Citizens!'

'Black-cloaked man-thing roams Ladybones Road! Accuses passersby of criminal acts! Can it be that we are no longer safe from the unsubstantiated calumnies of cloaked agents?'

Mmf. What were you drinking last night? Oh, that's right. You can't remember last night at all. There is some evidence of what happened, though. The bottle is empty. There is a black opera cloak on the floor. Did you go to the opera? The cloak is too big for you, in any case. There are people outside. You hear the words 'prowler'. And 'Vake'. They are journalists. This can't be to the good.

That said, you are feeling rather splendid. You feel fast. Strong. Dangerous. You might do some prowling later. What? What are you thinking?
