Description summary:
The remainder of the description varies with The Form of Law.
| Law type | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 ( Sigil) | The sigils of your quarry are fast; your speediest pace keeps you in sight, but your flesh will tire long before entropy will deliver you your prey. |
| 2 ( Beast) | You keep upon the law's heels – it is fast, and you are faster, more adept in embodied space than it could ever hope to be. You close the distance. |
| 3 ( Abstract) | Where is it? You run to and fro, looking for an angle. A thought niggles at the back of your brain, then is gone. You run faster, and get still nowhere. |
An extra sentence is added if you have 
Form Change Indicator:
| Form change? | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 ( Sigil) | The law ripples and shifts – a string of sigils, dancing through the air. |
| 2 ( Beast) | The law embodies itself into a jagged, misshapen quadruped. |
| 3 ( Abstract) | The law transcends; it's no longer a physical thing, but a concept, skittering away. |

Failure
Feral
Your pursuit of the law leads you down an alley, though the window of a warehouse, and out the other side. You have to claw your way through a crowd to avoid losing sight of it. That's a sight they're not going to forget in a hurry.
