Awake and not dead

[x-scarletwitch.livejournal.com]

We spent a majority of last night/stupid early this morning being chased through a darkened museum by a wolf creature. We were not amused.

To break it down in points, because some of these things will need to be address:

1. That funky looking symbol we found in the sewers and in Africa? Apparently the symbol for a growing group dedicated to Chthon. Look at how happy I am.

2. Ian McNee, the mystical world's little shit head, stole something from Agatha's museum - we have no idea what. Video caught him carrying something small as he jumped out a window but it's going to take ages to figure it out.

3. Which leads into the new point - apparently Agatha bloody Harkness has been hording relics of mythical and magical nature for years. Without telling me. Look at how happy I am. I've put in a call to Stephen, who's agreed to come over and take a look at things. I am talking a large, large gathering and Agatha's being incredibly closed lipped about everything and I'm hoping Stephen can do some good where I cannot.

Essentially, McNee broke into the museum the night of the attacks, somehow controlling a young man by the name of Terrence Ward. What we've managed to figure out is that Ward actually was a patient of Dr. MacTaggart's and an incredibly mentally disturbed one. To the point of being hospitalized - he was out on a controlled visit to his mother when something snapped, he killed the person he was with and he escaped. Sometime after that, McNee got a hold of him.

Some sort of shape shifter with fear based powers. Muir's sending someone to look into it. We'll be flying out shortly our time - tomorrow, I worry about who sent McNee, what the slimy bastard took and why Agatha's not saying a word about any of this. Right now, I'm going to go down a drink or two.

(Happy birthday, Marie-Ange. I got you something suitably tacky from Cambridge on top of a real gift.)
