Who: Arthur and Special Militiaman Ben Powell.
What: An interview is had, some things are cleared up.
Where: Somewhere deep within The Spire
When: Some two weeks after leaving that party. Time is irrelevant. (Link is a little violent.)
Notes: Fascist shenanigans abound.
Warnings: General meanness seems likely.

The location of the Militia's head quarters is no secret. The Spire looms between the government buildings in Dryside and the halls of law in Coin's End. Little is known about what happens in there; the Militia has no obligation to explain itself nor is the public allowed inside. It is said that Baedal has no prison, and that's true. One way or another, the holding cells in the Spire are not intended for long term incarceration.

( There is one guest however of some fleeting interest. )

In theory, he was off-duty. In practice, he hadn't really managed it. Defaulting to something resembling an on-duty state was one of his oldest habits, and it had been one of the first to reassert itself when he'd ended up here (after becoming mostly nocturnal and before risking smart remarks at superiors). It felt a little like a betrayal of his family, but his family wasn't here, and any old habits that could increase his chances of getting back to them were things he couldn't quite make himself feel guilty about. As long as he didn't go back to learning rude songs so that he could pass out in the gutter singing them, he should be alright. Relatively speaking.

He paused every now and then in this tour of Aspic, stopping on his unofficial beat to twist his feet against the ground. He was still learning the streets here.
