"We seek the male because their life forces have been tied together. He was created for the sole purpose of being her prison. Also she is without most of her powers in this realm. She does not lack in strength or speed, perhaps not as she would have them in her realm, but still of concern in ours. Beyond that, the longer she is able to remain out of her prison, the more our realm affects her mind. She must feed on the minds of others to maintain her own mind."
"Your magics have told you this?"
"We have seen it for ourselves the few times we have encountered her since she began escaping from her prison."
"These servants you spoke of, may we know a description?"
"Small, ugly, warty."
"If we encounter them, they can lead us to her. Know this, we guard this town, General Gregor, I would ask that you refrain from entering the town. We will confront her. If we fall, I would ask that you pick up the sword."
"I will honor your request, for the banishing of the Key."
"Thank you. Your magics will tell you if she is no longer a concern?"
"They will."
"We will depart now, I thank you for meeting with me."
"May God's Blessings go with you, Captain Alexander."
Once the group was back in the library, they began to discuss General Gregor's revelations.
"How did they get her inside another body, a human body?" Buffy asked.
"They could have created a dimensional pocket. Whenever she manages to escape, the human gets pushed into it. Or it could be kind of a variation on a shape shifter." Alexander answered.
"Do you really thinks she's a goddess? From a Hell dimension?" Gunn asked, over the speaker phone.
"It's possible. We acknowledge gods in our dimension. Beings from other dimensions could too. A god is something a great deal more powerful then us that inspires worship. The Ascended could be considered gods." Corda said. "But it's one of the reasons why they shed human desires before Ascending, so they are not tempted to seek worship. Our belief was that we would not actually be gods in that state, so we shouldn't claim we were."
"Perhaps a wise decision." Giles said. "It could easily get out of hand and is very tempting, the Gou'ald wishing to be considered gods, for instance."
"True and we now know why we have crazies in our town as Jack would put it. She can't handle being in our dimension or she doesn't have access to something that she needs and is using the neurotransmitters as a substitute." Alexander said.
"That would make sense. The gods we are familiar with have foods that are exclusive to them that provides them a benefit. Ambrosia, for instance." Giles said.
"Buffy, you've been patrolling, mostly for exercise, have you run into anything that looks like that description Gregor gave us of her servants?" Corda asked.
"No, but it hasn't even been a week since we found the monk guy and if she followed him here, then they haven't been here long anyway." She answered.
"True. It's sounds like she probably started escaping fairly recently and went looking for the Key. She tracked it somehow to the monks, who refused to give it up." Faith observed.
"That would explain why I haven't found anymore large groups of insane people. She probably only needed one or two because she could only be free for a little while." Jenny said. "As time goes on, she can stay out for longer periods, but needs more neurotransmitters to sustain herself."
"That's a scary thought, makes you wonder if she wouldn't be able to eventually just never be pulled back into her prison." Gunn commented.
"Which means we need to figure out a way to deal with her sooner, rather than later." Alexander pointed out.
"Agreed, most definitely." Giles said.
"Giles do you think the Watchers know about her? Maybe Wesley could asked them. Wait, where is Wesley? I haven't seen him since those voice stealing gentleman." Buffy said.
"The Council fired him for gross incompetence. His inability to get control over either one of you has upset the Council. They're convinced you'll both die soon anyway, without they're guidance, so they're just waiting for a new Slayer to be Called." Giles informed them. "I didn't think it really mattered if I told you, since none of you ever paid any attention to what he tried to tell you to do anyway. And as for the Council knowing anything, I doubt it's more then General Gregor knew. He and his men have been tracking her for awhile."
"True and I wouldn't trust them anyway." Alexander said. "They'd probably try to hold any information they have hostage so they could try to take control over the situation. Those people have no idea how to mount a campaign. They'd just get in the way."
"I have no doubt, you are correct." Giles said.
"So what we need to do, is find these servants, following them or maybe even questioning them could lead us to her. Buffy's the only one of us who's seen her, back when you got that monk away from her, so I suggest while patrolling, you keep an eye out for them. Keep your communicator on and we will monitor you from a distance. Once we have a location, we can plan an attack." Alexander said.
"Works for me." Buffy said. "Too bad the communicators can't take pictures, then we'd all know what she looks. Just telling you she's a blond in an expensive dress doesn't do much good."
"Actually it does." Corda said. "Expensive implies luxury. She may be hiding in the rich side of town."
"Then I'll patrol there."
"It's a good place to start." Alexander agreed, as did the others.
