       “Again, thank you all for coming. The individual you’ve been
       gathered to hunt down and apprehend is a threat to Boston --
       both the city, it’s people, and it’s concilium. Given that our
       attempts at sympathetic tracking have proven fruitless, We
       suspect they are a Mastigos, but they might just be particularly
       capable with the Arcanum of Space.”
       “My job here is to enable you to do yours. I imagine you have
       questions; I will reiterate that we have very little
       intelligence on our target, but that said I will tell you
       anything you want to know that I know.”
       “The sooner we catch this man, and rescue his victims, the
       better. So once you know what you need to know -- or know what
       you need to find out -- I would happily facilitate whatever
       plans you come up with.”

       Solomon thinks it over a bit. "I could put a call out among the
       spirits. If I can manage a wide enough net, at least one of them
       would likely be able to provide some information in exchange for
       a bit of Essence," he suggests.
       Even if they're on the other side of the Gauntlet, spirits are
       nosy things, and Scelesti always create strange Resonances. And
       they tend to dislike Gulmoths running around anyway.
       He downs the rest of his wine, setting the glass aside for the
       moment, to gauge the reactions of the others.

       Spirits, that piques my interest. "I can probably help with
       that. I know a thing or two about dealing with spirits and two
       witches are better than one." At least I assume that's the case.
       The only other witch I've worked with is Asher. "Or I can see if
       any of the city born wildlife have seen anything. You'd be
       surprised what rats and pigeons notice." I add.

       Seems like a lot of overlap. I swirl my scotch in my glass and
       make space for the large feline, making a clicking sound with
       my tongue. The cat floats up, getting a slight whuff from me
       because that’s a big kitty, and I begin stroking its fur gently
       as I sip my scotch and think.
       “If we all have facility with the spirit realm – and it sounds
       like we do – that area seems well covered. If he’s left living
       victims behind, I might be able to get access to them; I can get
       into hospitals and ERs as a volunteer. But that’s what we can
       do. We can strategize later; VIII is offering intelligence, and
       we should take advantage. Do we have any name to work with, or
       any sort of description? The picture is good, but it doesn’t
       give colors or habits or attitudes. Is he leaving any living
       victims behind, or just bodies? Do you have a place for us to
       start?”
       There’s also more to consider here. Morena isn’t wrong, but
       until we know what questions to ask, that’s shooting in the
       dark.
       “Forgive me for asking the obvious, VIII, but is there enough to
       tell us if there is any sort of connection or pattern to the
       victims? Some way to possibly get ahead of this guy, if we can’t
       track him down.”

       They watch Caesar get lifted into the air with a raised eyebrow.
       Luckily the cat is used to magic even if he's not a familiar.
       Rebus finished their scotch before adding anyway. "You said
       'rescue' his victims... I assume this means there is reason to
       think at least some of them are still alive? How much time do
       they have?"

       “The few living victims he’s left behind are soulless,” VIII
       says to Meadow. “I can arrange for a visit to the mental
       hospital where they’re being cared for under the guise of mental
       health issues. That will be in Portland, though. There’s two
       survivors there, and we don’t know of any other ones.”
       “There hasn’t been any established pattern in his victims that
       we’ve noticed, but we likely don’t have the full picture because
       we don’t find many victims in his wake. He’s good about cleaning
       up.”
       “We don’t know how long he keeps his victims on-hand,” she says
       to Rebus. “Again, we’ve only found a few so far. There are a lot
       of disappearances every day in Boston and he’s not the only
       monster out there making those disappearances happen.”

       "Sounds like a ritualized effort could be useful, then," he
       says, given the number of other mages there claiming to have
       proficiency with spirit magic.
       Though, on that note, "What areas around here, specifically,
       have people disappeared from? Not necessarily where they
       vanished, unless you have that information, but certainly 'last
       seen' or even just where they live? That would help direct the
       effort," he asks VIII. "Or if we don't have that, where was the
       picture taken exactly?"
       Awakened magic can only affect an area of a certain size, after
       all, so they need a starting point, at least.

       Then I open my mouth and show off my inexperience. "Couldn't we
       use the picture we have of him as a sympathetic connection?" As
       soon as I say it I realize that if we could someone would have
       already. This guy is a whole ass monster. I have the picture of
       our target the bird left with me in my hand. I had fished it out
       of my purse.

       “I can go to Portland for a day,” I agree, nodding. “And I can
       take along whoever wants to come with. I have some flex in my
       budget, I can make room for a couple of plane tickets.” I don’t
       mind putting my money to this cause. I’m not really rich, but I
       am aware enough to know I’m a few steps up from your average
       college student. I’m also one of the vanishingly few med school
       graduates not sunk up to my eyeballs in debt.
       Solomon gets a wicked grin in response to his talk of rituals.
       “I think you’ll love the way I do ritual work,” I purr at him.
       At Morena’s question, I reach over and lay my hand on hers,
       squeezing lightly. My hands are very warm, and soft. “VIII told
       us that he’s manage to scrub his sympathetic links, dear,” I
       tell her. “But it’s not a bad thought. I haven’t any experience
       with that sort of magic, but maybe there’s another way.”
       I had to either leave off petting Caesar or put down my drink to
       reassure Morena, and I wasn’t about to put down my drink, so
       Caesar chooses that moment to make his displeasure known by
       ramming his head into my chin. He’s a hefty chunk of feline, and
       I blink for a moment, startled, before giggling and scratching
       him under the chin.

       They pause, watching Caesar but still following the
       conversation."I also can help with spirit magic, that and mind
       magic. If I could help with a ritual I will stay and do that.
       Either Morena or I could go along to Portland, also."
       They look at Solomon, "Unless you want all of us for the
       ritual?"
