[SECRET] – Silence of the Guards.

In response to Grobian’s messages suggesting he may be close to discovering information relevant to the death of Neptune, Mercury will have her cats watch the four guards who were outside the room when Mercury “met” with Neptune. If any of them disclose any information about the meeting, she will shape change and kill them all, one-by-one, starting with the squealer and moving somewhat rapidly through the rest. If she can shape-change into someone looking like Grobian, she’ll do that. If not and she can shapechange into a ferocious beast of some kind, for instance a small bear, she’ll do that. This will not be a spur-of-the-moment thing. She will plan it out, find a time when all four are separate, and preferably alone. She will practice in her chosen form, if possible, beforehand. She will not preemptively kill the guards to silence them, but she will carry through on her threat of the time if they are foolish enough to disobey her.
