Elize contemplated the course of action they could take. Maho brought up a good point, that being that they were still pretty in the dark about what exactly was going on at the crime scenes. If they were going to catch this guy, they had to be completely sure of everything. If they messed up, they could end up putting themselves, especially Maho, in even further danger. Even worse, they could misjudge everything completely, then he would claim another victim, and Phoenix Wing would have to answer for letting such a thing happen. There was quite a bit riding on this.

After thinking things over, Elize looked up to Astaroth and Maho. "Alright then. I think we should split up. Maho, you can go to the patrol outpost and gather what you can on the cases. I'll head over to the library and research what I can about historical reports on the witching hour, types of dark magic that might be involved, that sort of thing. If we meet up before evening falls, we should have enough time to figure out what to do." Elize paused for a second. It would take her at least until then to gather info, so it was a sound time to meet. They'd have a few hours to plan their move. Elize looked to Astaroth. "It's up to you who to go with. Though I can probably handle my part so...maybe help out Maho?" She felt a tad bit bossy, but when she had such a situation in front of her, it was in her blood to get things done in an orderly and precise manner.
