Right. Adding on to this morning's writings now that I've sprinted, showered, all that.

Yesterday I followed up with Detective Carver. I had to go back to the station and sit in a clone of the interview room where I gave my statement before.

I hate it there. I hate that they only have two categories: victim and attacker. And that I'm stuck in that first category.

Anyway, he seems nice enough and thank god, he'd actually read the file so I just had to tell him what I'd told Cal. I spoke a little bit off the record with him, because the warnings from Tom and Cal both were on my mind, y'know? The last thing I need is to be seen as some tattler by a professional criminal organization.

So that done, I head to Lou's for a beer. There's a girl in there, around eleven, twelve at most, nomming pretzels. Kind of off, too sunny, if that makes any sense. Her name's Maddie and she starts talking about a demon portal in Lou's basement.

I probe a little bit, and then she relates how she'd once seen a demon attack a woman, with claws, there in the bar.

I was just floored. I had no idea anyone had witnessed it. I called Cal, and played a bit of operator while he talked with Dax I think, and eventually, Cal came to interview the girl.

It was eerie, hearing her perspective. The flashing light, the "demon" face mask, the claws. Took the cotton padding off my version of the story, made it edged again.

He finished, then he told me that they'd be trying to bring her in that night. I texted Wani this morning, told him I went with law and order after all. But I still want to talk with him. Trin wants to come over, try some of my cocoa, and I'm going to try to talk with him, honestly, get to the truth. But if this doesn't work, then I need to explore Wani's way of things.

I won't let Rowan be abused or worse, killed.

Last night, the nightmare tried to come back. I had a feeling it would, what with everything bringing it all to the present. But it's losing it's grip, I think. It was the original version, and instead of waking up alert and pounding in my chest, I just sort of rolled over and fell back asleep.

Thank god.
