38. Talon Company camp
The building functions as a forward operating base for three Talon Company mercenaries. It is located in an office building a short distance to the southwest of the sewer waystation (across the arterial road and up the hill), a bit west north-west of Grayditch. The building is recognizable by a metal stairway on the east side of the building, usually with a number of corpses dumped just underneath.
Once inside the building, a narrow hallway (which can form something of a choke point for an unauthorized intruder like the player character) leads to a common room, from which two other rooms lead off; a store room and a control room/dormitory. There is a Talon Company merc in each room. The rest of the building is inaccessible due to passageways being blocked by collapsed ceilings. Minor amounts of random loot can be found in several of the containers.
