"There is someone you have to see."

"Who?"

"Someone who can explain to you what you ran into yesterday."

"I will go after…"

"You will go now." Flynn undid his cuff and extended his hand. "I do not want to waste time waiting for you to come back as you can get distracted on the way back"

"Which I did, I must confess. I like flying, I like how things look from above, so it takes me some time to get back home."

"And Flynn did not want to put up with that."

"What do you remember about last night encounter?"

"A large dog, or wolf. Bigger than usual, trying to tear into this woman."

"And you stopped him. Was there anything unusual about it?"

"it had a strange smell"

"Well, check the man inside"

"Stuart Raft was there, chained to the wall. I wanted Flynn to explain, but he told me to check Raft's wound and his smell"

"This gentleman is the werewolf you met last night."

"I am… I am not what you say" Stuart protested.

"Don't bother denying it. I know about werewolves. And our friend here is a vampire, so you see, he will not go around telling your secret either."

Stuart was silent for a moment, trying to figure out what to say next,

"Raft smelled just like the wolf the past night. And his wound was the same I had inflicted on the wolf."

Why is it that you turned wolf last night? There is no full moon."

"I know. I lock myself well when the full moon comes, but last night this…this man made me change."

"What man?"

"He gave us a description of Maurice Crandall. It meant nothing to me, but Flynn recognized him. He was not happy having to deal with him. Stuart talked us about his brother Stuart. And what he said.

Flynn wanted very much to know what Owen had told Stuart as he went for help. Stuart claimed that he did not remember, so Flynn told me to help Stuart remember."

"Use your hypnotic powers to make him remember. Make a link through his blood so that you can see that memory through your own eyes."

"Which I did, and this is how I learned that Irina was out of her prison, and enslaved to Crandall. And about the will of the wips trapped into the body of a murdered woman. And that Wendy was under Crandall's power."
