The next morning, Gabriel, Selene, and Steven set their plans in motion. Steven used his connections to gather more information on Hell's Kitchen and its staff, while Selene kept a close watch on the restaurant, looking for any signs of weakness.
Gabriel, meanwhile, focused on manipulating Joahna Moriarty. He sent anonymous tips to her, pointing her in the direction of Victor's past. Each tip was carefully crafted to sow seeds of doubt and suspicion, all while keeping Gabriel's involvement hidden.
Days turned into weeks as their plan slowly took shape. Steven had tried to plant a mole within Hell's Kitchen—an adventurer posing as a new recruit, eager to learn from the best. He mysteriously disappeared and Victor added a new dish for the VIP section. Selene's surveillance revealed a few minor vulnerabilities in the restaurant's security, which Gabriel planned to exploit.
