===Post-[[Battle against Echidna|Echidna]]=== When it came out that Cauldron was behind many parahumans within the Protectorate. With Satyr being zeroed in on as a client of Cauldron, Pretender killed a [[Watchdog]] Thinker who had discovered Satyr's past.<ref name="I24.y e2">Satyr seemed to take that into consideration, rubbing his chin. When he spoke, though, he spoke of something else. “What you did… you knew that they’d figured you out, and that I was next in line, that I’d get questioned too. You killed her for my sake, to buy me time.”<br/><br/>“Are you mad?”<br/><br/>Satyr shook his head. “We’ve killed before. Selfishly, selflessly. Only difference is you got caught.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/06/25/interlude-24-donation-bonus-1/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 24.y]]</ref><ref name="23.2 c1">Worth stating that the PRT is outing Cauldron capes in positions of power. Team leaders, etc. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/#comment-24704 Comment by Wildbow] on [[Drone 23.2]]</ref><ref name="23.2 c3">But what can you do in their shoes? What would you do differently?<br/><br/>The info about what Alexandria is was inevitably going to leak, even before she died, and the death could readily be a catalyst for many people talking about it. Only Contessa was really holding them back (and Cauldron, behind the scenes, decided to stop protecting the Triumvirate: see number man’s interlude). So it was bound to get out somehow.<br/><br/>Alexandria dies, and you have to tell the public -something-. Chevalier makes the call to tell the public about her shady background, with the caveat that he has to reassure the public that the Alexandria situation won’t recur. He promises to vet the leadership, makes it public so the ones in power know to step down while there’s still an excuse.<br/><br/>But you get isolated cases like Pretender, who are too committed to their careers to leave, people who know they have immediate subordinates who are Cauldron Capes. Who find themselves between a rock and a hard place, in a situation where things were already strained at best (ie. Las Vegas). - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/#comment-24742 Comment by Wildbow] on [[Drone 23.2]]</ref> When [[The Protectorate]] came to take Pretender away for his crimes Satyr was not happy about it.<ref name="23.2 e2">Nix, Blowout, Leonid and Floret joined Satyrical in their anger. Heroes in more flamboyant and colorful costumes than normal, their moods a contrast in how dark they were. Spur and Ravine seemed more lost than angry, but the way they retreated into their group as we passed told me that they would side with their team over us. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/ Excerpt] from [[Drone 23.2]]</ref> Arrived to fight off mercenaries that Pretender had hired to free himself.<ref name="23.2 e3">“What a mess,” Satyr called out.<br/><br/>Heads turned.<br/><br/>The Vegas Wards had arrived, perched on top of the nearest wall. They didn’t move to help, didn’t leap to intervene. Satyr glanced at Bambina, who was struggling to free herself from the bola. There was something in his eyes.<br/><br/>Were they in on it?<br/><br/>“Help us!” Vantage called out. “Rime’s out, and we can’t save Weaver!”<br/><br/>Satyr didn’t speak. He glanced at the ship. He couldn’t see from the angle he’d approached, but the woman inside had pulled the lever, and the door at the back was slowly closing.<br/><br/>I drew out words on the side.<br/><br/>Pretender in danger<br/><br/>The heroes turned, eyes going wide. Satyr, Blowout and Leonid rushed forward, joined by Vantage. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/ Excerpt] from [[Drone 23.2]]</ref> There he announced that he and his team were leaving the protectorate.<ref name="23.2 e4">Arbiter looked up at Satyr and Nix, “If you leave, the Endbringers-”<br/><br/>Nix interrupted, “We’ll still fight Endbringers. But the Protectorate was going to take Pretender from us because of how he got his powers. It’s ridiculous.”<br/><br/>“He was still going to be on the team,” Arbiter said. “Just… we can’t let him be leader if he’s beholden to a group like that.”<br/><br/>“It shouldn’t matter.”<br/><br/>“Cauldron’s evil,” Arbiter said. “They experimented on people to get the powers Pretender has.”<br/><br/>“It doesn’t matter,” Satyr said. His voice was rough. “Pretender’s gone, and so are we. We’ll get our teammates and we’ll go.” - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/05/28/drone-23-2/ Excerpt] from [[Drone 23.2]]</ref> His best "friend" was kidnapped by the same people.<ref>[[Drone 23.2]]</ref> Attended the fight at [[New Delhi]], arriving in a way separate from the rest of the Protectorate.<ref name="I24">Vegas was absent too. They’d turned traitor, walked away. Satyrical had turned down the offer for a ride to the battle, claiming they’d make their own way. It was disconcerting, to think they had access to transportation in that vein. Teleporters? A craft that could and ''would'' carry people halfway around the world fast enough? Disconcerting to think they had access to resources like that so soon after defecting. - [https://parahumans.wordpress.com/2013/06/22/interlude-24/ Excerpt] from [[Interlude 24.x]]</ref> Survived the entirety of the fight and was there when Behemoth attacked the hospital Satyr was seen marching out to defend the building along with other capes.<ref>[[Crushed 24.5]]</ref>
