Editing Contessa (section)

===[[Gold Morning]]===
Contessa helped coordinate Cauldron's response to Scion. Doctor Mother requested that she find three candidates for some vials that had historically yielded very strong powers, but Contessa was intercepted by attacking [[Irregulars]] before she was able to leave the facility. One of the Irregulars, [[Mantellum]], was able to block Contessa's power, forcing her to flee Cauldron's offices and fake her death.<ref name="29.x"/>

After returning to the facility and discovering the Doctor is dead, Contessa provided Cauldron's contingency plans to [[Teacher]] and assumed second-in-command of his organization. 
Following [[Scion]]'s death, Contessa tracked down [[Khepri]] and, after a brief conversation aided by her abilities, then shoots two bullets into the back of Taylor's head.<ref name="30.7">[[Speck 30.7]]</ref>
