Darnell: *the knot in his stomach is getting tighter and tighter . . . well, he can't help the people of this town, but he can stop it from spreading. Time to find the source, there's /always/ a source...* *If he's going to survive to find a source, he'll need to hole up inside somewhere... else he's likely to join the townsfolk and the other agents who were sent before him. But, come morning, the monsters have thinned out and Darnell will be able to slip out into the town to search again. He'll be able to raid a store or house for food, and any bathroom will work, though he'll find the toilets only flush once and won't refill with water. He'll...also be pretty sure he finds the source of what happened here, but he can't /get/ to it. It's /surrounded/ by monsters...well... the warehouse has several big humanoid like beasts patrolling around. They don't seem to have eyes, but they have big, clawed hands, and certainly stand taller than a man.* Darnell: ............. *tried a while and did finally have to hole up somewhere, getting fitful sleep as he could. Once he finds the source - at least, apparent source - he's working on how to get into it, how to distract or draw away the beasts . . . if need be, he'll withdraw and try to find the town's city hall. Maybe he can find maps or blueprints, maybe there's a secret tunnel or sewer that'll take him under the building...* *He'll...definitely have to withdraw. One of the beasts notices him. It's head splits open like a flower full of teeth. While the creature seems to have no eyes to see, it certainly seems to know where he is and will prove much smarter than the thing that chased him upon his arrival. It'll take some crafty thinking on the detective's part to lose the thing. He'll... find no help in the town's city hall, either. The warehouse has a few drains that lead the the sewers, but nothing big enough for a man to fit through. He'll have to find some way to get rid of those monsters...*
