(June 23rd, 2009) I’ve handled more demonic cases so far this year than in the previous two combined. Things are on the increase, and I can’t keep up on my own. Understanding the mechanisms of the crossings is, in the long run, most important.
Fadil didn’t die a natural death, and the kid didn’t kill him. The message at the fire showed me whatever the inspector determines, the fire started with a demon. Unfortunately the messages were as obtuse as usual, and I have nothing else to go on.
Demons are something separate from our religions, though many of our historic religious demons have been transplants mistaken for religious experiences. Rather they are invasive species, come from a higher plane of the universe.
Lenore told me, their world is dying, and they’re trying to escape into ours. The demonic underworld has a tight grip on the scene in town. Any newcomers are discovered and either assimilated or dealt with quickly. Lenore may have information about any new crossings. She would be able to check her contacts and find out.
She can be hard to find at times though. You can’t summon a succubus, they have their own ways of finding you when they need you, and rarely does it work the other way.
I’ve learned much from Lenore, despite her understandable reluctance to give up too much information on this subject.
She says they have to feed quickly when they’ve crossed over, to establish some stores of power, or return. Or die.
The old breed were content to lay low, feed slow, establish themselves over eons.
It doesn’t work like that anymore. People move faster, there are more to feed on. People don’t perceive demons like they used to. We’re too busy, we don’t notice them until they’re in your face, sucking the manna from you, and sometimes not even then.
(cont’d) Maybe there are more demons now because there are more ways to get here, more places that are worn thin. It was rare in the past, but now with our science experiments, our super colliders and reactors, the doors are opening wider and more frequently.
So here’s their world, our world, a supercollider in the middle. Is this how it works, or just another dead end? And in all of this, where do I fit in?
I’ve tried to figure out the physics of this theory, and I have some difficulty getting from the equations to what I observe. It’s not exactly my field, but not entirely unrelated either. I have studied independently, I can at least speak with some intelligence on the subject.
