[chuckles] It's nothing that serious. It's just nice to have a little harmless excitement around for a change. New ghouls are usually pretty good for that. Mercurio was already pretty seasoned when he came over to you, right?

Well, for one thing, it was Prince Tara Kearney. You know, the former Anarch, Prince of San Diego? They've had a hard time finding out how long she was Prince of L.A. for, but apparently it wasn't too long before she got betrayed by an advisor, shot at by a bunch of Anarchs, and knocked off a skyscraper.

Funnily enough, I'm not even sure it was local Anarchs. They were being led by one of Jack's childer, and she had made a lot of Anarch enemies from the San Diego area.
