Hm. Yes, Cobie and I cleaned up a lot during my term, but the illegal tobacco black market has been something else. I know Exnihil ran a tobacco shop a while back, but his particular blends were deemed safe and of legal varieties. I tried to contact him (her?) recently, but Ex's offworld on vacation. Ex might be a good one to talk to when he/she returns.

There's a big difference between the stuff Ex sold and the black market stuff Pagan smoked. The stuff she used was loaded with additives to make it more addicting, and at the same time more deadly to the user.

Good to have confirmation, old buddy! Do you want this Nyebif case, Dev? This Venturan is an ass, but he's an important one. Seems your shape-changing powers might help you follow him and snoop around to see if his life's really in danger.
He's currently at Cobie's Midnight Lounge. Want the case?

Yes, I understand the difference completely, Bart. Ex didn't sell that shit, but he may have info on who does. Otherwise, I've got nothin'.
You might want to double-check with Cobie, too...maybe he built up some files while you were, er, dead.

Seems to me you've been dead a time or three yourself Chief. And for the record, I never died, but if Cobie hadn't followed a wild hunch I would have.

Just once, actually...not counting the near-death experience of being shot in the head!
In any case you were out of action a long time, and I'm sure Cobie gathered up all kinds of intel while you were gone. He may even have some that he never got around to ever finding out what exactly they meant in the larger scheme.
He was never as detail-oriented as yourself or Matlock. And Matlock has been mostly absent himself in recent years.
It's just a hunch, but one that may be worth investigating.

<Abin stares hard at Chief Taylor for a few seconds, then blinks and shakes his head.>
Lardy... Chief... I don't... There's something in the background... something that was once part of you and could be part of you again. You just have to need it bad enough... You have to hit bottom and lose all hope before it will come back!
Yee Gods! I can't do this! I look at you and I know the truth! But it's not the truth I'm looking for!
You didn't do it! Cobalt didn't do it! But somebody did!
<A green glow surrounds Abin and he flies off>
I WILL find that SOMEONE!
