Demon Hunt: Epilogue
*Working through the night without pause, Caleb has been in Dr. Fate’s study, having taken advantage of the key he was given for just that purpose. Several books are around, and Dr. Zukov has a notepad in front of him, on which he is furiously scrambling and collating relevant notes. Next to the notepad, on a coaster is Caleb’s sixth cup of coffee.*
*Books on prophecy, history, magic, deities, and divine magic are all bout him, each open to useful pages. Judging from the fact that he’s on the 5th page of his notepad, it’s a reasonable deduction that Caleb has found quite a few noteworthy passages.*
*His cell phone interrupts his concentration, and the tired man hurriedly turns it on and holds it up to his ear. He’s waited all night for this call. He turns to a new page in his notepad.*
“Dr. Zukov … Yes… Very good, then. What have you discovered? … Really? Alright ... Okay ... Okay ... Huh? 2000? … And how do you spell that? … Thank you. No, Karl, we … Yes, I know, but … Karl! We’ve been down this road. I’m not going tor eturn to work after what Director Bones did, but still .. Yes, this is greatly appreciated. Yes, I do owe you one. It wouldn’t be the first time. Goodbye, then.”
