 Unfortunately their trail turned cold. Unless the pounds of corpse meat and bone were what remained of the thralls, Whoever, or whatever the doctor was using them for got away. Of course this was just speculation on Fable's end, tested when Leroux found the corpse of one thrall. Bullet wounds. Someone else shot at him, most likely. If there was any bullets left in the thrall's body, they might be able to trace it back to whoever [i]really[/i] shouldn't be stalking the sewers like that.

 Then again, that's part-wishful thinking for the Timekeeper.

 The trio had to head back eventually, yet something left a bitter taste in the boy's mouth. A grim pattern he's starting to notice. It had to be a coincidence. Justin wouldn't happen to prefer youths as his victims, of thralldom or otherwise, right?

 ...Right??

 But for now, all they could do is report back on what they saw and found. He'd explain to the best of his ability and even offer some theories. Any info he seemed to be missing will have to be left to his teammates. [s]And not cause I can't be bothered to write a long-ass recap.[/s]
