Thomas looked to her as she began speak, saying that she didn't even know WHAT to ask. Fair enough. She continued, asking what she should do, how did she get rid of it, what was it, and finally where did it come from. All very good questions as she began to get worked up and finally seemed to calm down, relaxing a bit as she took a sip of her wine and then apologizing for how she'd reacted. "[b]It's ok, I understand[/b]" he said gently. He looked to her as she said she was scared, that she wanted it gone for good. He nodded and spoke. "[b]I understand. I would be shocked if you weren't scared. I keep forgetting that you aren't magically inclined like I am. Forgive me[/b]" he said gently. he took a moment as she finally came to find a proper question to ask. [I]What is it?[/I] Thomas sighed and took a drag of his cigarette, relaxing as he thought about how to comment. 

"[b]There have been hundreds of legends concerning this....creature, this being. Perhaps the oldest known record of it is the legend of Gorr'rylaehotep, from ancient Egypt. Legends speak of a being that came to our world from a place just beyond our own. For all intents and purposes, a god from another dimension[/b]" he began. Chances were he'd lost her by this point but he continued. "[b]He....it; has been seen countless times throughout our history but each time, these cases follow a recurring theme and a recurring description of the being itself. Every time it makes contact with an adult, the adult has been through some sort of trauma or tragedy in their life. It seems to target those who have seen him as children and stalks them for years. It stalks the person, every encounter causing paranoia, memory loss, hallucinations, nightmares, bad shit like that[/b]" he said. He took a drag of his cigarette and put it out with the heel of his shoe. He took a breath and continued. "[b]If this thing is stalking you, you wouldn't know it. You could be unaware of it for months or even years and you wouldn't know it until it showed itself to you and by then you are too late[/b]" he commented.

He ran a hand through his hair and sighed. "[b]I wish I could give you more information than that and I wish I had better news than that[/b]" he said with a grim tone. "[b]Truth be told I have more files concerning victims and the cult that worships him than anything. It's mostly legends and no facts if I'm honest[/b]" he said. Gorr'rylaehotep was a mysterious being that didn't stalk hundreds of victims at a time. He often stayed in single digits and spread the cases among countries and states. it was impossible to know who were victims and who weren't
