My name is Charles Easting. I used to be a spy. Until--

Well, it doesn't really matter. I got tired of it, I guess. Telling someone else's lies. I was working for a small but influential collective of behind-the-scenes powerbrokers, captains of industry and such. I can't point to the moment the Chamber's interests stopped aligning with my best interests, but I would have kept on doing it for the rest of my life, until my handler noticed I was asking too many questions. I was burned, cut off from all support in the middle of a critical operation. I was in Flint at the time, and I went straight into the nearest Risuri guard station and turned myself in. What I'd done to my home country deserved punishment.

I was expecting the worst, but the interrogators took an interest in me. In exchange for my cooperation and any information I could provide on the Chamber, I was offered a menial post in the Royal Homeland Constabulary, a new life and a fresh start. It's better than being executed for treason, and I can put my skills to use for a better cause. Enough of the cloak-and-dagger shite, I'm content to try and help people. And I've started to develop a name for myself back home on the docks as a fine entertainer, one of the good ones.

I should be fine here, safe from the Chamber, as long as I don't leave town. Or quit my post. Or arouse too much suspicion. Or try to contact them. Really, as long as I'm burned, I'm not going anywhere.
