Francescos Correspondence

[Deleted]

This letter is written in the aftermath of the scene happening at the university on 17 Oct 2020


My honored Nonna Amina, 

just this night, in order to pay off an old debt I had to a former coterie member I visited the local university in order to conduct some reconnaissance. For that purpose I requested a tour through the University to which I took to spirits to search this place unnoticed. 
During my tour through the university I spotted a creature that resembled a winged lion which was somehow summoned from beyond the shroud in two occations.  This creature was also detected by my spirits following me and seems to be guarding the Chapel and Archives of the university, which leads me to the following assumptions: 
Primo: The Tremere found their Haven there and heavily warded it.
Secundo: The Tremere might have found a way to call forth entities from beyond the shroud or forced somebody well versed in the black arts into their service
Terzo: The Tremere seem to be conducting some kind of a big ritual. My spirits were utterly terrified about what was happening in there and straight out refused to go anywhere near there.
Considering the ursurpers protected status as members of this new sect, the Camarilla I strongly recommend that we keep a close eye on our new 'friends' and collect as much information about their plans as possible. This way I hope we can expose their schemes before they turn into a treat to our family and our city.

Attached you find a copy of all the information I was able to obtain. 

Respectfully

Don Francesco
