After getting kicked out of Tuefort, the Tf2 Mercs are tasked by an anonymous employer with guarding incoming intelligence in a big creepy house.
This is epilogue lore to one of my friends and I's roleplays. It's set in 2034 (all the game dates have been adjusted so that the mercs are the right age.)
