> Let's find out what a $15 chicken sandwich tastes like.

>It turns out to be pretty good, all told, and fairly substantial! Perhaps not 15 dollars worth of good and substantial, The slaw and fries aren't too shabby either. Archer sets into her meal eagerly, and doesn't seem to be too disappointed. She is perhaps a little wary of the bok choy at first, but it doesn't slow her down. Sister Gibson attacks her stew like it tried to steal her purse.
>"So, do you know who Assassin or Berserker's masters are?" she asks in the middle of the meal.

> Shake our head.
> "We just saw Assassin for a moment, and didn't try to chase him. I was a little scared of his power when I first saw it, to be honest..."
> "I didn't actually see Berserker, Archer just spotted him for a moment." Turn to Archer.  "Can you describe what he looked like again?"

>"Big, very big," Archer says through a mouthful of polenta. "He didn't walk, he drug himself along the ground. Bare-chested, too. Lancer also encountered him."

>"I want to know who his master is, because that person is really blatant," says Archer.
>Sister Gibson says nothing, listening.

>She nods, presumably to the last part.
>"There's more than that," Archer sends to you. "Remember how he appeared again while talking with Lancer? Was Berserker's master really around then?"

>"I'm sure some of them would like to, if only out of jealousy," says Sister Gibson. "But I imagine it would be difficult to interfere directly. If nothing else, I imagine most servants would have something to say about it if they tried, and I imagine said servants can make their voices heard very decisively."
