The huge Cultist and his bearded companion snarl, eager to rip your throat out, but Heinrik steps right up to you.

"You're trying to see if they'll bark like dogs, aren't you?" he whispers, eyes boring into yours. "They will. When I tell them to, and not before." He shoves you back, then watches you with cold, calculating eyes as you regain your balance.

That's when a middle-aged woman dashes her full solo cup over Heinrik's head.

"Get the fuck out!" she screams, and then the whole crowd is screaming; two more cups, a mostly-full BORG, and a liter bottle of Mountain Dew smack the Cultists; beer and alcoholic Pedialyte slosh over your tall boots.

Somewhere, you hear Roscoe shouting "Where the hell is security?" But you can see at least four guys in Hog Throne t-shirts pushing through the crowd. They separate Heinrik and his people from the increasingly furious crowd; Heinrik looks your way with a self-satisfied smile on his face, despite the White Claw dripping from his beard.
