Hunt successful.

McKenna learned everything she needed to succeed, but at times I worry that she won't put everything into practice. That aside, she was helpful in more ways than even I expected.

Preliminary research, selecting targets, reconnaissance, and evidence collection went smoothly. After the Russian operation, the notepad took more of the strain off the network. It made finding the perpetrators, and following their trail, easy once I found the tracks.

McKenna got on a plane and arrived within hours of my call. It was sudden, and late, but she'd been anxious to see my work, and to participate.

We trailed them to a chop shop, and I dropped a Hyphae from a jury-rigged drone to get eyes on the situation. Once the targets were isolated, we made our approach from a distance, disguised and disabling cameras as necessary, and took out the guards.

Things got messy, but cleaning up messes is what I do. What we do, now. 

I made my armor better. More than better, it's alive. A part of the network. 

I was able to trade one of the fungi's new roots of power for an arm. An actual, usable, paper arm. And something else too, a gift for McKenna. There are so many things out there, so many people looking to turn a profit and sell their gifts. I'm glad I decided to join them.

The man I dealt with is some kind of craftsman and artist. He took cutom requests for the materials involved, and for adornment. 

The arm is easy to use, and makes breaking and entering a breeze. The gift is a trickier prospect, but still useful. Miraculous. The perfect gift to match her budding interests.

I've been following the case of those university murders, with the supernatural interference. Gearing up for the eventual hunt. More literal than the monsters I usually go for, but it'll do.
