  1. - Outside of the normal things a girl would have in her handbag, Octavia's purse contains a lot of...well, tools and items for self defense. A canister of pepper spray, a canister that looks like pepperspray but is actually simple syrup, garroting wire, a few cherrybomb sized devices that look like explosives (stronger than a cherry bomb though), a taser, an assortment of throwing knives with paper charms tied to their hilts, and a few smoke bombs.
  2.  
  3. - A few sheets of banana stickers, and a little baggy of candies. This chick seemed to have quite the sweet tooth.
  4.  
  5. - A mini-bottle of chloroform and a few handrags
  6.  
  7. - A notepad with a checklist of sorts on it. It includes a lot of scribbled notes around some objectives, like around 'Keep Cherubs and Dittos from making advances in major cities,' there's notes like. It's all written in Russian. 'Do these jerks even realize how much effort me and my men are putting into making sure their loved ones aren't getting targeted? Sure, that might not be the actual REASON for what we're doing but it's the damned after effect of it!' 'I wonder if those selfies with their family members I took to show things are okay back home got through.' 'Shit, wonder if they got the wrong impression - naw that can't be the case.' There's a few of these notes, mostly relating to her activities fighting Rapture's forces.
  8.  
  9. - There's...something that looks like a small diary in a hidden pocket. As you open it, a photo falls out, of a much younger Octavia and Tentra at a park. This thing has some JUICY TIDBITS. It starts with the following:
  10.  
  11. "If you found this, it means you either killed me (shame on you), or I made a mistake (shame on me, but mostly you). I'm writing this because in the event that you WEREN'T Dandyman or Husk or one of those mechanized Mewtwos, I might be able to convince you to do something on my behalf."
  12.  
  13. "You might have noticed, but I'm not a Rune Master. So how did i get involved in this? It's easy - a woman whose like a mother to me was caught up in it. As you probably know, Grant is trying to bring a draconic being known as The Devourer into our realm by summoning it from a higher plane. What you probably don't really get is how it got there or what the heck this thing is. Tentra, my 'Mom', was associated with a government sponsored group of rune masters and occultists who actively watched over this thing for many centuries. It ate memories, and it was customary that once a member of their group was about to kick the bucket, they'd offer themselves to it and have their memories devoured. It was a living record of their craft and history, and grew stronger and larger everytime it ate. Over the course of the years, it became the largest Unown-based entity in the world - a being called The Collective.
  14.  
  15. Tentra was not at all thrilled about this practice or this thing always getting bigger, but she couldn't really do much about it - she was a bit of an outsider to the inner workings of the organization. I never really understood why till it was too late. When The Broken Lord finally kicked the bucket, there was going to be a big group suicide amongst the followers of The Collective, offering themselves to it. Grant arrived on the scene and stopped them from doing this, claiming he could help them make this thing take The Broken Lord's place. Tentra was going to have -none- of that, and the two got into a heated argument (it seemed like they kenw each other, and I later learned that they did) that was about to get violent when...well, she cast herself into the thing, it tried to eat her...and I'm not really sure what happened, but both of them were gone.
  16.  
  17. I still don't really know what transpired, but I, and most people who were there, ended up leaving with Grant that day. He really didn't seem that torn up about things going astray, like he had a plan to just bring the dragon right back into this world or something. I'm not really sure what I was thinking - clearly this man was doing something that Tentra wanted nothing to do with, and she went to great lengths to make sure that happened...but why? Who was this guy? And more importantly...how do I get her to come back? Grant seems to know how, and I'm going to find out how. I might not really care for what he plans to do once he's had his fun, but I've got no other leads on how to go about this."
  18.  
  19. This goes on for a while, documenting her first few months, quickly rising to power in Grant's organization (in her words, Grant was 'stricken with her. Or maybe not me, but what he saw of Tentra in me.'), her winning a lot of favor and admiration over time (specially with the Mewtwo Symbiants and the explorers from Eorzea)...it wraps up with something like this.
  20.  
  21. "Look, I've done a lot of bad things and harmed a lot of people while working for Grant, but all I really want is for someone to help Tentra get -out- of whatever she's stuck in. If you've made it so I can't do that, can you?"
