Though the creatures toiled away on the central axis the world also trundles on. The building they used was old and though the interior had changed the exterior lay very worn. This mostly a problem that they could not spend long outside unsupported so their efforts were minimal and relegated to nighttime that their labor did not draw too much notice. Occasionally a resident would break a window and replacement proved a matter of critical importance. An occasional gush bringing unwanted eyes of mages sniffing for the strange gout of energy. Diffused and subdued under the veil and the location made random wanderings by mages particularly hazardous.
Rumors sprouted underneath them in with the virtue of simply being good stewards of the building that they made a reputation for themselves. Though they hadn't given a name to the tenants one was made for them through gossip. Gangs tried to assert their territory. Entering the building at night to encounter the creatures that had paid for the building in gold. Bullets exchange for woe as the Jinhai's clothing sprout holes leading to darkness engaging attackers. After a curt conversation while carrying one by the neck proved something of a boogeyman. After a chat on one of their cell phones agreed not to interfere in each other's business. Soon named 'hollow men' more after the poem than anything as the dust-bleeding Jinhai sent intruders packing with a few dark purple handprints and courtesy bag of intact bullets.
Though detectives eventually came to look at the call of gunshots the humankind they'd hired as steward kept the stranger places of the building from them. The residents of no particular goodwill toward the police either. Immigration came and went but simply found empty rooms where apartments once were. Records meticulously kept pertaining to cash payments for rent of no forwarding addresses. As for more ardent pursuers of the state, Jinhai reorganized labyrinthine passages from within to protect their tenants. They were loyal to Rome and to Humankind but neither to the State nor to Heaven. The Ratoraskr a simple necessity to prevent further degradation. Though they still paid their taxes. The mages that did show up Myrkul decided simply to refuse to see them and locked such beings outside.
Outside the building rather a void to them as space comparatively devoid of natural energies. Veil atop it an obstruction to flows at near exclusion -- at least from their estimation. Though the building Jinhai maintained sustains a controlled environment the field of magic there was a thing partly cold and metallic to the touch. The wild energies interacting with something very foreign with an intense hostility for chaotic natures. Though the natural flow could pass inside their walls kept much of the efforts inside. Though ever on the look for leaks concreting ectoplasm inside as a result. This was what Molly sampled.
