"-the harbinger of the ultimate fate. “

  'Francis Dinoire,' Menti watched from behind her counter, catching the glimpse of the detective entering Staxius's office, '-a renowned man from a prominent family. He's known to be straightforward, a knight charging valiantly into the problem. Many reports have said he gets angry on behalf of the victims. Nothing is more important to him than getting justice for the fallen. It's sad, really. The morbid curiosity runs deep. We have the world to blame for it. The thirst for violence, the love for death and gore, the standard to which we place violence. It's all ephemeral. There's no real warrior, no one worthy of holding the hand of the people and leading them to a better future. There's no hero in this infected world. I hope the short-tempered Francis doesn't trigger a reaction from Varrek. That man has darkness lurking… I feel like he can end reality with a flick of the wrist.'
