Hello, darlings! Helena Wells, reporting back in. What have I missed?

Places for the finale

Alright, everyone. Something I've noticed a lack of in the archives of this network is Investigator organization when the Jaunt reaches a climax. I'll admit I'm not a team player by nature, but in the interest of this not turning into an utter clusterfuck, I thought we could try actually planning some things. We've got a good amount of data on what the Solomon Ring does, what Manticore is up to, and as far as I'm aware a general consensus that we don't want the latter controlling the former with an iron paw. Not to mention, we have two Trumps sitting in playing the roles of King Hound-of-the-Baskervilles-was-garbage and Queen How-is-The-Redheaded-League-even-a-mystery.

Now, here's my thought - we can either break the Solomon Ring, attempt to seal it, or attempt to wedge it open, all of which can be done through alteration to its physical makeup in very specific ways. It is a magic circle, related to those found in the Ars Goetia, and therefore relies on precise usage of materials and geometry to function as intended.

Ideally, we do this stealthily, very shortly before it is publicly opened, so that Manticore has no time to react or stop us. However, consider the floor open to alternate strategies or even objectives. I consider myself a technical consultant on this, at best.
