The good times are destined to be short-lived. Before going out the next day, Lindong had transformed back into her feline form and returned to her preferred seat.
There was still much work to be done today. The first stop upon arriving in Gear City was the casino operated by the Lofic Consortium in the southwestern corner of the city. This is where Kane was first known, having lost everything and accrued massive gambling debts in the casino, only to lose all the borrowed money like every other gambler.
Afterward, unable to repay his debts, he and several other similarly situated gamblers were forcibly sent to work off their debt in Haywood Mine.
In the mine, Lindong never got to see Kane's true face.

One person and one cat were in a deserted alley near the casino, discussing matters about Kane.
