Mother Catherine Elizabeth Flavius had her assignment from the Delmor Mother Superior, whose name was Agnes Moore. Moore's most trusted Mother, Flavius was the chief undercover agent in the Monastery's investigation of the local Episcopal church's minister. As such she was cleaning out the rest of her equipment, in order to move to a downtown Delmor apartment rented under by the magazine
Paranormal and Metaphysical Monthly (formerly known as
Paranormal and Metaphysical Standard, which resulted in the worst acronym-related public relations fiasco since the Super Human Institute built their eponymous Tower in the Capital), a front organization for the Mothers' undercover operatives. She took with her a laptop with access to the Mother's archival servers, doctored credentials, clothing and a sniffer.
The sniffer was a ingenious piece of technology created by the R and D department in Rome, it was a tool for the measurement of meaning, which RnD had discovered all objects have and in measurable amounts. It measured the particular meaning of objects and people in Butterflies (BF), named for the Butterfly Effect. It would be central to her investigation of one Father Robert Covington Blood IV and the general citizenry of Delmor. With just these things she left the Monastery on undercover assignment, and would never return to it as it stood.
