The Key to the Problem was a virtual representation of one of Aveline de Grandpré's genetic memories.
Description[]
Aveline met with Gérald Blanc, who informed her of a Templar being present at a party. Aveline set out to find a way into the mansion where the party would be held.
Dialogue[]
Aveline went to meet with Gérald Blanc.
- Gérald: You may, er... put your mind at ease, Monsieur. The cargo will be delivered on time.
- Philippe: I dare say thanks are owed to Saint Nicholas.
- Gérald: Or perhaps a... uh... guardian angel, Monsieur.
- Philippe: Ah! Aveline. I am sure it is not your old father's company that draws you here. I will leave you both to your private business.
- Gérald: Aveline, the documents you found aboard the rat captain's ship... I recognized a name — Rafael Joaquín de Ferrer — a known enemy. I don't know what his business is here, but we can be assured it's more than er... simple larceny.
- Aveline: How can I help?
- Gérald: One of Agaté's "Servant" contacts tells us that he will attend a uh... social soirée at the governor's mansion this evening.
- Aveline: I'll have my best dress ready. Or my worst! Fear not, Gérald. I'll uncover his true purpose.
- Gérald: In the meantime, may I suggest that you er... familiarize yourself with the governor's mansion? Perhaps discover a... uh... discreet way to enter?
- Aveline: Don't worry Gérald, I will prepare well.
- Gérald: One more thing. There is a small er... house for sale near the governor's mansion. It would be ideal for a Dressing Chamber. If you wouldn't mind er... buying it?
- Aveline: Your wish is my command, Monsieur Blanc.
Aveline then bought a house to use as a dressing room, and changed into her slave guise. From the entrance of the mansion, she tailed a butler, until the man met with his contact.
- Butler: Remember, we need these goods delivered to the south entrance, just after sunset. Here... This will grant you access to the kitchen.
Aveline pickpocketed the key from the butler's contact.
Outcome[]
Aveline managed to steal a key to the governor's mansion, allowing her a method of entry at a later hour.
