Eli reached into his as Eric's connection came to close. He pulled out a pack of cigarettes and lit one. After taking a hard pull form the lit cigarettes. He rubbed his temple for a moment, trying to find the right words. He had no idea what to tell or how to explain what was going on. Hell he didn't even know what was going on.
"We'll first things first. Christabell Sami Raines, this Eric Miller. Eric moved here a while back with his family and runs a wood working shop outta his house. He's pretty good at it." Eli said as he pointed to Eric.
"Eric this Christabell Raines. If the rumors are true, she just killed her shit stain old man today and her shit for brains brother shouldn't be too far behind us. You can his handy work on her face." Eli said point to bruises on her face. "Like you saw, girl knows how to move in the woods. Damn impressive."
"Me and my momma used to go over to their house back before Christi's Momma passed. Used to sneak away and goof off in the mines. I also have a map of just about damn near everything on this mountain the and the next one over. Young girl, panicked, running through the trees, wasn't hard to put together." His words were flat, like he was reading from text book.
"Now, what's going on... I have no fucking clue. I woke up this morning to find some fucker in a goat mask trying to kill me. Goat boy had a man tied to my tree with bared wire... Oh yeah his face was ripped off... Goat boy exploded in flames and burned to death." There was an eerie calm in Eli's voice. Like was commenting on the weather more than describing a murder scene.
"We three here, and the faceless man's only connections. Old man Johnson's farm, his party the other and Tillie Helton. I'd sure love to find the who did wrong for Tillie, get some information and justice for the poor. She was a sweet kid, she didn't deserve that shit. No one does." Eli's commenting on the weather tone quickly fell away to murderous intent.
"That's all I got. Past what I told you, there's some strange shit going on these Hills. People turning up deaf isn't anything but the way the body's are turning. Something ain't here... But finding who did Tillie comes first. I get the feeling things will into place after that riddile gets answer." Eli took another deep drag. That's when he noticed the silence again, the lack of birds chirping. Someone was coming.
