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.)

We were all set to come back later today but there's been an emergency. I received word that my old mentor, Agatha Harkness, and my cousin, Hanzi, who works for her, were brutally attacked Friday evening at Agatha's museum. I've been reassured that they'll pull through - when I got the call, at least one of them was almost done in surgery - but we're heading up there this morning.

Some other guards weren't so lucky and didn't survive; the police are talking an attempted break in. I'm not sure but if anything comes up, we'll keep everyone posted.

Well, there's good news and there's bad news. The good news is that Wanda's lead turned out to be a bust; if you ask me, her friend scored a bad batch and earned himself a healthy dose of paranoia for his troubles. The bad news is that the four of us can hardly see straight, so we're going to call in sick for a couple of days and stay here. Trust me, it's for the best; 'Yana nearly burst into tears when we told her we were about to put her on another commercial international flight.

Wait, did I get my good news and my bad news mixed up again? I really can't tell at this point.

Anyway. The four of us are in London, and in London we'll stay, at least for a couple more days. Don't worry, we're still getting plenty of work done while we're here; it's nice to surprise contacts who think you're across the pond. Maybe if you're lucky we'll rustle up a rogue Cajun while we're at it. Or con my dad into buying us dinner or something, assuming he's still around.

Anybody want us to pick you up anything? Besides the keg of bitter we're bringing back Amanda, that is.

Speaking of...North, I expect you to have brought me back something pretty from Symkaria.

I hate to leave so soon after just getting back, and with Remy still out there somewhere, but an old friend from London called me last night. Seems to think someone, or something, is after him. Details were a bit spotty but he's paying for me and three others to fly out.

I decided to be nice and picked people who didn't look exhausted - with the exception of Jake. He just did not really have much of a choice.

I doubt it's anything and we'll probably be back a little richer on Monday.
