The Red King inhabits one of the infected in the mine and attempts to goad Aiofe. The Red King explains the she is exactly where he wants her and that he is off on his travels, saying goodbye to her in Gaelic.

Dr Ichman underestimates the  group and attempts to flee from the mine, with the ensuing chase by Aiofe, jack and Dylan. Dr Ichman is killed by the combined efforts of Jack and Aiofe, shot multiple times in the back as he flees down the corridor linking A pit to B pit. On walking past his body, he appears more human than the other infected, but he wasn't examined at length.

On arriving at the pit head, the remaining minion stops running and appears docile for a moment before the Red King again appears to take control stating that Dr Ichman should have turned more miners to the task, but never mind. 

He explains that the group have a choice to make - Save the Country or save the Queen, and that they should train their thoughts on this dilemma. This statement was followed by Jack exterminating the infected and seeing that the pit head for B pit was also destroyed.

One of the child miners knows of an older way out of the pit that they've used in the past to get out of work. Using this route, everyone makes it back to the surface where they find the two pit heads on fire and those left up top busy trying to extinguish the fire.

Little is know of Dr Ichman, except that he serves the Red King as one of his trusted Leftenants.

Little is known of this small group of shamanic magic users. Both weird means and spirit is spliced together to aid the Arcana Rangers in pursuing their prey...

Unusually, spells are only passed on through word of mouth. Two spell lists that are known to exist are "The Hunters Almanac" and "  ".

A student of 5 MAGIC! must be acquainted with one or more Lorebooks. Each Sorcerous Order has a small library of Lorebooks, which its members may study freely; study of any Lorebook beyond those of a single Order involves gaining access to other Orders' libraries, either freely granted or (much harder) by stealth or guile.

In game terms, study of each and every Lorebook beyond those of one's own starting Order is another Edge, which may be purchased with experience in play, but only if the character has somehow managed to gain access to the relevant book for a period of days or weeks at minimum −− the exact time required is left to the GM, and should be much longer if the study is intermittent or did not involve the aid of someone who already understood the Lorebook. Most starting characters should not possess knowledge beyond that of their own first Order, and GMs should feel free to impose social problems on PCs displaying too much versatility in front of other sorcerers.

(Unless they are well−known to have gained the favour of the second Order legitimately, its members may accuse them of theft, while their own Order may suspect them of disloyalty. While great sorcerers are often members of several Orders, even "allied" factions have rivalries and mutual suspicions, and regard their Lore as private knowledge and the secret of their power. Also, adapting another Order's rituals to one's own style can be made as hard as the GM wishes, especially if the Orders represent very different magical traditions; the trick may involve a lot of work and several successful Arcane rolls.)

The list of Lorebooks is contained in section 4 of these notes.

Cragside is a Victorian country house near the town of Rothbury in Northumberland, England. It is the home of William Armstrong, 1st Baron Armstrong, founder of the Armstrong Whitworth armaments firm. An industrial magnate, scientist, philanthropist and inventor of the hydraulic crane and the Armstrong gun, Armstrong also displayed his inventiveness in the domestic sphere, making Cragside the first house in the world to be lit using hydroelectric power. The estate was technologically advanced; the architect of the house, Richard Norman Shaw, wrote that it was equipped with "wonderful hydraulic machines that do all sorts of things". In the grounds, Armstrong built dams and lakes to power a sawmill, a water-powered laundry, early versions of a dishwasher and a dumb waiter, a hydraulic lift and a hydroelectric rotisserie.
