The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Time might heal all wounds, but that doesn't mean it won't leave a few scars behind too.

Sometimes, usually, there is no perfect ending in this kind of work. There is only hoping the right sacrifices were made, and that the light shines a little longer because of it.

A train ride through the mountains should have been simple after the "minor excitement" of the night before, but the team is more on edge than ever. Multiple agents suddenly had concerned calls from family, and after one too many strange sightings on the train, R Cell has to worry. Could the local cult-church-community actually be linked to a previous investigation? Or have so many past missions finally caught up that R Cell is just the convergence?
