11 of 11 facts shown
Away from Danger
Get her brother Abe out of Chicago as soon as possible, preferably by sending him to graduate school on the far side of the country.
Fleeing Brutality
Figure out how to get in touch with a more civilized group of vampires than these "Anarch" thugs and figure out how best to protect her people if there aren't more civilized vampires out there, which is starting to look like a rather depressingly real possibility.
The Dirt
Mercy is aware she has a certain amount of information about the Anarchs, their goals and, most crucially, how to contact them should she change her mind about joining their ranks. And information, in any world, can be both currency and power.
Mercy did not receive a good first impression from the Anarchs, whose willingness to brush aside the whole fact that she didn't consent to any of this did absolutely nothing to endear her to their cause. If the choice came down between preserving the safety of her family and her neighborhood and preserving the safety of a bunch of self-serving freaks who turned her into a monster…well.
Mercy has had a couple encounters with Nathaniel, whom she correctly believes is stalking her. This does nothing whatsoever for her peace of mind.
