Gwynne pipes in "Um... There's a bit of magic from a living source mixed in as well, though um... it's not anything I've seen before - I'm - I'm not able to identify it. I'm sorry." She frowns a bit and thinks hard. "Duccio, this whole thing just looks very familiar - Like the Delcamp situation all over again. I think they're related."

"Maybe they are. How was Delcamp awakened?"

Duccio sighs rubbing the bridge of his nose as Sophie storms out, "When it comes to Delcamp it was a combination of Ilza seeing to him and getting feed, but he was always at least slightly awake when we found him albeit not fully lucid one might say. I have yet to dive deeply into this shadowy cabal that held Delcamp but I did uncover the word Leviathan which lead me to a tale from a time before this city was called Amsterdam. I have yet to have time to research deeper into the history of this city but I think, if the written history persists, it might shed some light onto this mess a little bit."

Walking over to a bookshelf in the back Duccio fiddles with something upon the shelves hiding it with his body before a fain click can be heard and the bookshelf begins to slide to one side. "We can keep Finn in here, but in the meantime I will require as much detail on this excursion as you all can give me need to know with what kind of creatures we are dealing with."

" we don't know for sure if the demons were actually with those who captured Finn or merely coexist with them. The close proximity of the tunnel the Fomori were in does make it seem like they may have been together though. I was planning on doing a bit of research on these strange occurrences as soon as I get a chance as well. I would very much like to hear this tale of Leviathan and Amsterdam. Perhaps we could coordinate our research so as to more efficiently tackle the problems.For now though I will leave Finn to you all. I should follow Sophie as she is still very young and I am concerned her feelings of guilt will lead her to get herself killed."

Isaac is gone for like maybe 5 minutes before he reenters struggling to grab an unconscious Sophie with a chunk out of her shoulder in.
"Well I should think whoever they are they know about this place. When I got outside three Fomori were dragging her down an alley. They fled when they saw me. Any of us who can't walk unseen should not travel alone for now."

Isaac pulls up a chair for Sophie and speaks softly.
"Take a moment to gather yourself. We should not act in haste as our enemies seem to know more of us than we know of them. "
His voice becomes more stern.
"And you have NOT failed your mother. If you were my childe I would be very proud of your bravery and quick thinking. "

"Great... Although my guess would be either you were followed or what ever if afflicting Finn can also call to those Fomori, I am guessing you brought her to Elysium before here so it is safe to think they also know that location as well the Warden needs to be notified of that." Duccio paces a little before approaching Isaac handing him a book from within his bag,

"This is the story that I found in my research... My Library is open to those who would like to help me in my researching, it might not be as abundant as those other one in the city but my collection is well versed in such matters." Duccio then turns to and begins pulling books from shelves in a hastened manner.

"We didn't take her there first but that would be the location with the most traffic of our kind so its likely they know about it."
Isaac places a comforting hand on Sophie's shoulder and sits nearby to read.

Everyone hears the loud noise of Isaac closing the book. If anything he looks even more pale than a kindred should.
"My God. The story of this Leviathan troubles me. I know not what the sea monster was that nearly doomed this place when it was a fishing village but as it seems to be dead according to this story it doesn't worry me. What worries me is that according to this a pact was made with a great deity to slay the creature in exchange for tribute of the town's lifeblood. I believe this deity was not a good but was in fact an earthbound. No simple demonic spirit such as those that possess to create fomori this is a literal fallen angel from the Bible. A creature so old and powerful it cannot be contained in human form and is instead housed in an item of power. Those who have been attacking us are likely a demonic cult. "

"I generally stick to Dutch here but English is my language of preference Lso"
Isaac repeats it all in English.
"Somewhere here,likely in those tunnels is some kind of reliquary housing a fallen angel. This is quite different than the demonic spirits possessing people to make the creatures we have faced. The sea beast is likely irrelevant now as it was slain by the fallen."

Duccio closes the book he had been reading in an uncharacteristically forceful manner his voice seeping out in an eerily soft tone, "Would all of these uninvited guest to my domain please refrain from shouting and storming about as they please. While these troubles have now turned to be more irksome than they originally should have been but we will deal with it.

Now Isaac that does seem to the a sound theory and might go far enough as to explain Siegfried's and the Societies sudden activities in the area. Sadly this is only a good theory and there are other explanations for powerful beings that might have been mistaken for an ancient deity as the hunter seems to be pointed more towards the Lupines and they have their own mysticism they follow that I am not intimate familiar with and might be tied to the origin of this place. The site in which you went to rescue that map maker from the Lupines was once a site of ancient worship, but I am unsure if that is the same old deity or not and thus more research is needed.

Now I know of a few ways to get the spirit out of Finn, I could attempt it but would likely result in her final end even if I succeed, next the inquisition has the tools and knowledge but would also likely result in her final end for different reasons. The other next are better options of finding a skilled enough mortal mage, but not an easy task to complete not to mention finding a reason for them to cooperate with us. Lastly would be to find a Shaman and we do have some dealings with a tribe that would most defiantly have one and if what Finn said was true they look upon her more favorably than most of our kind."

" I suppose I could ask the lupines. I have had cordial interactions while warning them about the hunters. I'm sorry for being rude Deacon. There are perhaps too many of us here at the moment. I will go attempt to make contact with others and see what I can do."
