''Crow’s prophecy of a final battle between the Kerberos Club and a world-destroying Queen Victoria and his actions to prevent this future have started to curdle in the minds of the club-goers. Usual rules of diplomacy – avoiding religion and politics – are becoming increasingly honoured in the breach, and discussions of patriotism vs. class loyalty, mysticism vs. mechanisation, Queen and Country vs. abolitionist principles and predetermination vs. free can be heard in the clubrooms at all hours. So far, it is all talk. So far, believers trust Crow is the answer and skeptics think the fad will blow over.'' | ''Crow’s prophecy of a final battle between the Kerberos Club and a world-destroying Queen Victoria and his actions to prevent this future have started to curdle in the minds of the club-goers.

With time, this pro bono work with an eye for legitimacy has become more than this; a sizeable tradition of Kerbereans have come to see this as a most noble duty. When innocents are threatened by forces of oddity and Strangeness, they will stand in the way.'' |

''The Art of the Vanishing Serpent has come to London. Though not brought by her directly, Elizabeth recognises the signs of the Art that she once studied in a set of remarkable, some might say inexplicable, murders. Locked rooms, high windows, in plain sight in Leicester Square. Passing like ghosts, leaving only corpses in their wake, a darker presence has come to England on the East wind. Bringing their ancient, serpentine order to England may be the next step in the eternal, cyclical war between the Vanishing Serpent practitioners and the deadly artists of the Kali. | ''The Art of the Vanishing Serpent has come to London.
