Lions in a pet shelter!

[Huh!

"D'you suppose they've got any more?" Jon will ask him, when they leave here. "Oh, well. You're more of a dog person, anyway."

In the present, Holmes shakes his head. He's getting better at identifying factors he wasn't familiar with before he came here, but it's still imperfect. He works with probabilities and inferences, and now he knows that living creatures requested from Mana do not return with their owners to the Sea of Stars.

You are right. Many things here are unusual, even unique. [He's not gonna mention Egypt, for now.] It is one of those unusual things I wished to talk about.

Usually, a victim cannot come out and accuse his murderer outside of a ghost story. Here, though, they can -- as long as they are a monster.

I presume you have your own reasons for not coming forward. However, should you wish to, you will have an ally in your corner. One man already has been hesitant to identify himself for months, living in fear that he will not be believed and his killer will be defended over him. I want to make sure that's not the case.
