Lisa- "...The one that escaped can do it again. It's something that you learn...The others are dead. Maybe she's won't be able to catch more, with one arm." Lisa sits back and pats her increasingly swelling legs.

"She'll most likely bleed to death, unless she knew a doctor? Sorry. Is there anything else or should we let you get some rest?"

Lisa- "I think that is all of them, but it isn't like other monsters. You can teach the skill...the 'gift' to other people. If she survives...well, anyone can learn how to do that. It takes effort, planning, special preparations to do it, but it can be done... I can tell you how we did... so you know... You don't seem evil to me..." She did seem exhausted, however, and her dark eyes became half-lidded. Vars- "I'd be curious, just to know how they did it. There's a lot of different kinds of magic, and it's a bit of a crapshoot to see if they work all the time. But but, the things that do work, I think they have a lot of ritual attached to them. Makes me wonder if they always worked, but it's more obvious now... Like, I wonder if the spirit world is closer to ours now...but then, does only hell exist? Because all the creatures are evil and want to eat us for serious..." Vars seems to have a naturally relaxed sort of attitude, and is now wearing some kind of Sarong for semblance of decency. He managed to look vaguely model-like even in careless repose.

Lisa- "Is there any reason that anyone would ever want to know magic like that? I don't think it could be used for benevolent purposes..."

Wolf sat back and looked thoughtful. He had made himself useful fetching medical supplies for the wounded and then melted into the background.
The whole ghoul werewolf thing was too fucking creepy, but it did get him wondering if there was some powerful magic out there, a magic that he might find and use to attain some power in this fucked up world protect people and save the world from this apocalyptic shit or something.
He allowed himself to daydream.

Lisa- "The strongest magic, He knows, and He teaches....He's master. He can see it somehow. He took Helen, our leader, to the tower... and then afterwards she knew things. " "He must spend all day making monsters, experimenting... I don't know how he found such secrets, but he did."

"Where can we find this sick wizard?"

Lisa- "The boy...she said he looked like a mummy, in one of those towers. I don't know how she found him. Or maybe he found her.... I don't know... He was the one on the radio the day that everything happens. He did it.. all of it. Or most of it. I don't know..."

Patti grumbled from her seat."That'll be Osiris. As far as we can tell, he's the little shit that started this whole mess. Locally, anyway. He's got little pinheaded compatriots around the world. We only know one person that's laid eyes on him in person and survived. That was in the Bank of America building."

Lisa- "Osiris... Who did that? I think maybe that was it. Or was it somewhere else? I don't know... I wasn't there. They added me because they wanted me, and I was deluded...I thought it would be magic that could be used for good... but it isn't true." Lisa sighs, and leans back in the pillows. "I can tell you how I did it, if it will help you understand. I don't know... I'm not someone who knows a lot about this sort of thing."

"I'll keep an eye out for freaky dogs and signs of taxidermy. So, where can a tired body get some sleep around here?" Wolf perked up and led her upstairs to a free bed. He did not return this evening.

Vars- "I'd be interested in hearing it, but I'm hardly the type to do it. I just want to know.. well, what you have to do to...do that sort of magic? Is it like, human sacrifice? Or is it just animals, or... I guess I don't entirely understand. It think my magic works, but it's not..dramatic like that, it's different... subtle." Lisa- "I can explain the steps, but it takes diagrams to teach the magic.... " She begins to explain to Vars, or anyone else present should they desire it.

The night wore on and Sister Blaze joined them in silence, before opening up a book to read.
Lisa continued to explain the craft she had performed, and then, finally went silent. Little did they know, the quiet and withered figure of Chen had been listening from a nearby doorway, ever watchful. Vars- "I'll have to look into more forms of magic. I don't think this is something that I can make up on the fly. People tried it, and kept the stuff that worked." Blaze- "More talk of magic in this house? I thought you would have known better based on what happened." Vars- "With all due respect, it's the ammunition in this war... We have no choice... Do I look like someone who would use anything to hurt someone?" Blaze- Sister Blaze shakes her head but watches him warily.

"I don't know Vars, there's safe magic like protection but that stuff sounds pretty dangerous to me. Tread carefully lest you become a monster. Anyone can go wrong, even the sweetest people have a dark side."

Vars- "Isn't that always the risk of using what we need to survive? I'll be honest, I'm not going to dabble in anything that sounds too dangerous, the world doesn't need more monsters right now, it needs more people...speaking of which...are you ok? You looked a little sick before we were taken upstairs.." Vars pats his shirt and pants pockets, and then leans back in his chair...
