"A Mecane branch or cell of the Eulerian Circles Society, I guess?" Mattheus frowned after Brunilda summed up what she managed to get and parse from their ambush of the three society lackeys. "I mean, it's been mentioned before that the society was transcontinental and theoretically I knew what that meant…"
