She sounds... depressed. More so than I anticipated from her CS..

Well, she did just loose her husband a few days ago. Hmmm, maybe I should update my CS to reflect this a bit more. The other side of this is her guilt. After all, she was kinda pleased to hear about this plague because she thought she could be the hero and further the COL's cause through it. Instead she lost her childhood sweetheart. I can imagine she would be experiencing a mixture of guilt, anger, and depression.

Am I being too dark and serious with this?

Also, I agree. A man like "The Master" is someone with a strong reputation who is probably known to some extent by most. Even if its just his name and people know him to be THE KingPin or Mafia Head (metaphorically speaking)
