While playing, Daeva says,

"So, I'm sure you've all heard the news about Ben Harker. What you haven't heard is a little... something I dug up on our dear leader Damien.

I fought alongside him in the sewers against two Malachai. All well and good, yes? I saw something in his eyes as he attacked one of them. It was schadenfreude - joy from the suffering of others. After the battle, he told me he wanted to take one alive... he was annoyed that I'd killed them. Our goal is to rid the city of Malachai, is it not? So why did he want it alive? Why was he irritated at me... for simply doing my job?"

She lifts her shirt to show a horrendous scar on her stomach.

"Here's my proof. Some of the people here are eye-witnesses as well, if it's not enough for you."

She stops playing.

"I don't want to start chaos. I don't want to divide the city more than it already is. But I think there's definitely something up with Damien. There's no reason as far as I'm aware to take one of those monsters alive. I know that one of you is a murderer. I saw it as I played my song. I don't want to point fingers, but if that person could come and talk to me about it privately, I would appreciate the extra information. I suspect it has something to do with the leadership in this city.

"So I want you to do something for me. Damien, after the fiasco in the sewers, left his group to clean up the mess and headed off further in. I couldn't see what he did after that. Therefore, if he gives you an order, I would like you to relay it to me or Fenris. If you can't reach either of us, spread the word and it will get to one of us eventually. And if he asks you if I've told you anything? Please tell him that I was giving a rousing speech against the Harkers. I don't like keeping secrets, but I've come to think Damien can't be trusted. Thank you."

Another soldier – Elohim – says,  "I've been a soldier for many years now, and two days ago I thought I would die. I had just murdered a Harker girl, and while I killed the demon that rose from her blood my soul is still tainted red. I saw it, today. I'm done with Damien and Ben's petty squabbles. I pledge my life to you."

 He kneels before Daeva. Twenty or so others do the same. Another ten, including you, stand.
