Synopsis: Two powerful henchmen named Bloodsport and Roughouse, working for a new player in Madripoor, murder Chancellor Ranjamaryam, the prince’s chancellor. He is fished out of the river by Chief of Police Tai, and Patch turns up to see what’s going on. He picks up the murderer’s scents off their victim, and heads to Ranjamaryam’s suite. Bloodsport and Roughouse, meanwhile, rough up Archie Corrigan, a pilot who works for Tyger Tiger. They warn him to work with them or suffer the consequences. Patch discovers a handkerchief in the chancellor’s room, and recognizes the scent. He calls in at the Sovereign Hotel in Hightown and confronts Karma, the handkerchief’s owner. He warns her to sort out which side of this war she’s on. The next day, Roughouse manhandles Lindsay McCabe and Jessica Drew in the market before being reminded by Bloodsport that they have more important matters to attend to. Suddenly, a woman appears, on the verge of death. Lindsay takes care of her and Jessica checks things out. She discovers many of her friends, Tyger’s people, butchered by persons unknown. She returns to find the woman is also dead, and she realizes they’ve jumped into the middle of a war. Later, Patch takes Tyger to the palace, but they are ambushed en route by Roughouse, who easily defeats them, alongside his friend. Luckily, Karma steps in to allow Patch and the injured Tyger to leave. Patch manages to get Tyger back to the Princess Bar, but knows she needs taking to a safehouse. He himself visits Archie Corrigan, and informs him he’s calling in Tyger’s marker. Meanwhile, Roughouse and Bloodsport return to General Coy and tell him their plan to kill Tyger failed. Karma, the general’s niece, is clearly upset about what she’s getting herself into.
