The Council of Venice is composed of members of all three main factions, as well as a fourth faction, the Phoenicians.

A sinister delivery of Morninglight propaganda squelches credulity, but also the resulting horror. B-grade, but of course there is no alternative

Lilith claims to have sponsored them, when she is cornered in Orochi Tower.
