 * Who: An agent of the Nexus corporation
 * Source: The Power of Five book four, Necropolis
 * Note: The Nexus knew of the Old Ones, but were vastly inexperienced in the demons, so they tried a more direct way of rescuing Scarlett from Hong Kong, the possessed city.

Scarlett is shocked by this.

 * Who: An agent of the Triads, using an illuminated billboard shining over Hong Kong
 * Source: The Power of Five book four, Necropolis

Cardinal Riveria revealed the wine was poisoned, and the world was becoming so bad that there was no point in living any more. Cardinal Riveria said he had killed himself because he couldn't live if he killed a child, but Pedro saved himself using his own healing power and by drinking dirty water.
