Introduction
Join Architeuthis, investigating the worst of the worst, writing Intelligence Briefs for the PPC.
Architeuthis scouts out trouble for the assassins, at high personal risk.
AN: You know the drill: I’m not making any money off this whatsoever. All LotR characters belong to the Tolkien Estate. The PPC was created by Harpwire (a.k.a. Jay and Acacia).
