[u_can_have_it_4_a_song]

Schön has been busy, lately, meeting with various proprietors of Nexus businesses. As he steps out of one of the clothiers and finds the pace of the foot traffic, he issues a quiet summons: "Nekomata, I would speak with you. Kindly attend me at your earliest convenience." The course he winds through the crowd sends him toward the edge of the residential district, close to the parklands, where gloom has been gathering and deepening for weeks.
