In the absence of a regular job, Ishiah spent much of his time forging connections with individuals placed strategically around Darrow, doing his best to keep aware of new and unusual dangers within the city limits. Of particular interest tonight were rumors that had reached him about a Scitalis nesting in the sewer system, a creature Ishiah hadn't encountered in centuries — and, considering the fact that many species in Darrow were more iterations on a theme as opposed to being directly related to those he'd known before, Ishiah wasn't keen on jumping in blindly.
Most of the sightings had been reported within or around the Darrow High School campus, and so Ishiah felt a greater pressure to learn quickly of its abilities and either isolate or slay the creature, whichever was necessary to keep the city's children safe. The large television in his apartment played portions of security camera footage on loop, and his coffee table was littered with books and notes, a large pot of coffee on the side long having gone cold.
Tomorrow, he would set out for the first time in search of the beast, but having done most of what he could do to prepare, Ishiah leaned back on his couch and rubbed at his eyes, contemplating the idea of sleep.
