"Thank you, General.  At our superiors' discretion, we should put them on standby.  Also, it would be wise to bring Judge Parlow back as quickly as possible .......What was that, Brother Prescott? Hmmm..." He looked at the illustration of the murder scenes.  "Thank you, Prescott," he said as he resumed his train of thought. "<br/><br/>"Brother Prescott is correct.  These murders fall within the same time frame and yet they do not fit the 'modus operandi' of our foe.  The only logical conclusion is that this is a mercenary or an ally of convenience.  Judging by the sheer blunt trauma inflicted, this one clearly prefers brute force over subtlety.  But perhaps the mastermind is using that simple nature to his advantage, perhaps as a way to take attention away from him while inflicting maximum damage.  We will need to investigate this too, lest we be attacked from an unexpected angle."<br/><br/>"Inquisitor, Governor, General, it is my recommendation we mobilize Arbite and PDF patrols into the Underhive, particularly here.  Due to the time line, there is a significant chance that our cult leader or perhaps his brutish associate is still somewhere in the Underhive.  I also high recommend we declare a planetwide state of martial law until further notice.  At the very least, we will force our foe to change his plans."
