But when your mom is Shay Carson and she makes two requests of you, you take them seriously. Go on a father-daughter bounty hunt. Go on vacation. How can Alison say no? She can't. Two Brownstone's on a bounty. That dude's going down hard. One and done. The second task takes our Drow princess away from the home base.
