'''{{PageRef|name=McGinnis}}:''' Well, on the one hand: it's an interesting challenge. On the other, you're just a bad person.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Your mind is the engine that drives the occult war machine! Within a decade your inventions will claim millions of lives, if they haven't already.

'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Detective, are you implying -
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' I think we're past lying, Mrs. Geist.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Ms. Geist.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' I thought you married a German.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' He died.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' I'm shocked.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I loved my husband, Detective. And if you imply otherwise ever again, they will never find your body.

'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' For me to make contact with the Patrons.

'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Why would I do that?

'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' No, the point was to save my life! We've already established that you're incapable of repairing the ward, so where does that leave me? Oathkeeper escapes his prison: I die. Oathkeeper is banished from my person: I grow old. Both are unacceptable.
 
'''[[Johann Geist (Jr.)|Johann Jr.]]:''' You're acting like growing old is a death sentence!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' It is!.. And it is slow. And painful. You don't understand what it's like to have your body grow frail and decrepit... for your mind to shrivel... to have others stare at you with nothing but pity... No. I will not die a crone. And if I make Oathkeeper happy? I won't have to.

'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Great - wait, what do you mean "up to me," just give me the ward and we can be done with this.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=McGinnis}}:''' Not quite. The ward you currently have is a lock, it hinders Oathkeeper until he figures out how to break it. The ward I built you is more like a battery, it-
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Your technomancer babble is wasted on me.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=McGinnis}}:''' You know I don't have to give this to you, right?
 
''...''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Forgive me.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=McGinnis}}:''' Like I was saying: I didn't build it to block Oathkeeper, I built it to drip feed it; maximizing every ounce of life and storing the surplus to keep it satisfied and docile. And with the Maelstrom upon us, the amount of mystic energy you'll be able to store in that thing will be obscene. Assuming you're willing to put in the work.
 
''McGinnis gives Lady Geist the ward.''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Do you know how long the Maelstrom will last?

'''{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}:''' Long ago, the Tome was used to conjure Oathkeeper.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' And how do we go about-
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}:''' Detective. You already received your boon.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' You didn't give me knowledge, you gave me a sentence!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}:''' When asking a question, it pays to be thorough.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I don't believe this...
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' You think I do? Don't mess this up, Geist.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' With the bar you set, it would be fairly impressive to do worse!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}:''' Lady Geist. I grow impatient.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Restore the missing pages of the Tome; so that Oathkeeper may be bound to it and not to me.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Amber Hand}}:''' Done.
 
''The Patron vanishes.''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' What did you do, Geist.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' What do you mean, "what did I do?"
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' The plan was to destroy the Tome with Oathkeeper inside it!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' That was before it became very clear that the Patron was not keen on providing multiple steps.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' I'm still stuck with the Tome!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Ah, but ''I'm'' not stuck with Oathkeeper.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' Yes. But the people trying to kill me for the book can still very much find it!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' And that is certainly a problem for you.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' And if they release Oathkeeper, who do you think that spirit will be looking for?
 
...
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' You may have a point.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' No shit!
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Well then... I think there is an obvious solution.
 
''Cuts to Lady Geist's home.''
 
'''[[Johann Geist (Jr.)|Johann Jr.]]:''' Oma, this is a horrible idea.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I would think that you'd be happy that the Oathkeeper situation has... evolved.
 
'''[[Johann Geist (Jr.)|Johann Jr.]]:''' "Evolved" is a word for it.
 
''Abrams enters.''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' The guest room is down the hall.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Abrams}}:''' Your bathroom is bigger than my apartment.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Don't get used to it, it's only temporary.
 
''Lady Geist places the Tome on a bookshelf.''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' But until the Tome is destroyed it would appear our fates will be... intertwined.

'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Jeanne.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' How are you?
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Vexed.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I'm sorry to hear that, perhaps I can help.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' I don't suppose you know where my son is?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I thought he died?
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' So did I. But tomorrow's problems are for tomorrow. Please. Have a seat.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Aren't you going to offer me a drink?
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' I'm not here to serve you, Jeanne. You're more than welcome to help yourself. Now, what can I do for you?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' More like "What can we do for each other?"
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' You're not actually going to pretend that you have something I need, are you?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Who's pretending?
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Ha, this should be good.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I didn't come here to be insulted.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' No, you came here because you needed my help. You can dress it up however you want, but let's be honest: my phone doesn't ring unless people want something.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' And you don't return calls if you think someone is going to waste your time.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' ...This is true.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I accept your apology.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' So. What can we do for each other?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' You are a man with powerful enemies.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' I have enemies. "Powerful" is a bit generous. [Scoffs], says the crone who's conviced the world she's in the prime of her life.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I see you've heard the rumors. Good. That saves me time. Your confidence is inspiring; unfortunately, reality does not bend around your bravado...
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' So Oathkeeper...
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Is very real.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Ahh, and you...
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I'm tired of bearing his weight.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Go on.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Something this powerful can't be left to its own devices. It needs guidance. A strong hand... Something you alone can provide.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Yes, yes, and in exchange?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' There are some... guarantees that I'd like to see in place in regards to my foundations as well as my safety.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' I assume you'll want a blood contract?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Naturally.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' I can have a notary here in a few days. Should be plenty of time to settle on terms.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Wonderful.
 
''Cuts to 3 days later. The blood contract has been signed and Oathkeeper is now bound to Fairfax.''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I'm glad we were able to come to an agreement.
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' Oathkeeper is in safe hands.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' Maximilian, so long as I'm in safe hands, I'm satisfied.
 
''Lady Geist leaves.''
 
'''[[Maximilian Fairfax|Fairfax]]:''' So. Oathkeeper... Are you ready to change the world?
 
'''[[Oathkeeper]]:''' Mr. Fairfax, I thought you'd never ask.

'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' [from inside] Send her in Bebop, I'll hear what she has to say.
 
''Lady Geist enters Ms. Shelly's home.''
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' It's nice to meet you.
 
'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' What can I do for you, dear?
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' It's more like what I can do for ''you.'' I know you're running out of time, Ms. Fisher, but you don't need to be. What if I told you that you can bar death from entering your home?
 
'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' I'd say it's rude to lock out a visitor.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' What?
 
'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' I've lived a good life, a long life, I buried my husband, and while I'm not eager to see him again, if death comes knockin', I'll come runnin'.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I don't understand.
 
'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' That's 'cause you're young, dear.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' I'm offering you a miracle.
 
'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' Johann called and told me all about you, Lady Geist. And if you knew anything about me you'd know I traffic in ''creation'', not death. So no. You're not offering me a miracle. You're offering me a curse.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' You're going to die.
 
'''[[Shelly Fisher|Ms. Shelly]]:''' I am. But at least I'm not going to live by becoming a killer. You know what you're doing is wrong. If you didn't feel that way you wouldn't be trying to pawn off the responsibility.
 
'''{{PageRef|name=Lady Geist}}:''' What am I supposed to do?
