Law stepped out of the airplane he'd been on for the past fifteen or so hours and stretched his legs. He'd never been to London before, and while that meant that there were plenty of interesting things to see for the first time, it also meant that he had to be questioned before entering. This turned out to be somewhat of a nuisance, as it was no quick ordeal. Quickly after he stepped off of the plane two men came up to him and escorted him to a small building that sat off to the side and out of the way of the usual proceedings. The man in front opened the door and the three of them made their way inside. There were 4 small chairs around a circular table, a water dispenser sat in the corner, and there was a small window with the blinds opened so that Law could see the runway from his seat. The two men questioned him for what felt like hours, alternating between talking to him and stepping outside for a moment to discuss his answers. Eventually though he was able to convince the men questioning him that he possessed no ill intentions towards their leader or organization, and that it would be best for everyone if he were to be let inside the city. Which was true, he was only here to do research and could very well end up joining Shadowfall. He was leaning more towards joining the Monsuta at the moment, but that didn't mean that he couldn't change his mind. Even if he did join the Monsuta it would merely be as a mercenary, he enjoyed keeping his options open. Often times the best way to make money was to play multiple sides of the field, a skill that he'd been developing for some time now. It took a certain amount of skill and thought to do this however. He sold his services to the highest bidder, but sometimes he had to turn down the highest paying jobs if they directly interfered with another organization he was helping. It was best to keep getting steady work from both sides, his pay was decently high regardless, no reason to get greedy in the short term and miss out on the opportunity to make more in the long run. After flying for fifteen hours and being interrogated for an hour and a half Law was more than ready to be on his way. Law found his own way out of the airport, and finally out on the street lit a cigarette. The road he was walking on was cobbled with grey and black stone and there were several cafes and small restaurants on both sides of it. As this was shadowfall territory he didn't imagine that it would be all that hard to find a member of the organization here. He wanted to have a contact within shadowfall, someone who could tell him when it would be a good time to offer his services, but he didn't want to meet their commanders at this point in time. He liked to know what he was getting himself in to first. Law was fascinated by the aesthetic of New London, it was like nothing he'd ever seen anywhere else. He enjoyed it though, it gave the city a unique feel that he appreciated. About a half mile down the road a cafe caught his eye. There were many clockwork pieces strewn about, and looking up he saw a sign that read "Clockwork Cafe". There were a few tables that sat in front of the building, each with several chairs sitting around them, enclosed by a small black gate with several interesting embellishments but there was no one to take his order out here. He made his way inside, ordered a cup of tea after waiting in a very small line consisting only of two others, who decided to remain in doors, and asked that his drink be brought to him outside. Only a few minutes later he was enjoying his tea and another cigarette at the table furthest from the door, wondering how exactly he was going to find someone who belonged to shadowfall with nothing to go on. For now he decided that he'd just keep his eyes and ears open, no need to do anything drastic. He had all the time in the world, now all he needed to do was be patient.
