October 26, Morning (Official)Cas did a lot on Thursday, let's just get that out in the open. For starters she set out to find out where Renee lived and worked. On the way she discovered that she was being followed by a quite competent and suprisingly appropriate tail. She ditched him on the way up to the far north, where Renee had his home. Now, Renee had made sure to get up early and take the damaged car to the repair place. He'd also set it up with his friends to meet before work in the secret second basement below the medical facility. One of them, Michael Warnock, didn't show up, so they sent Claire Dowd over to check out what was going on. Unable to see an easy way to waltz into Renee's property, and fairly sure that he must already be at work, Cas used a business card from Renee's wallet to set herself on course for his offices. When she arrived, however, she was equally certain that they would not be pleased to see her in there, and even an attempt to set up an appointment by phone went all wrong. So she opted to wait for him to come out for lunch. And that's when she noticed what she was certain was a tail watching Renee. Meanwhile, Campbell tracked down Lindsay and gave her a business card. She also told her about the meeting on Friday, and urged her to come along. Lindsay spent much of the day at the library, looking up the various terms mentioned, and becoming increasingly worried as she found out what the "Inquisition" (the Spanish one) was. Olga set out to see what she could find out from her contacts. She asked her police friend about The New Inquisition. He seemed to think he'd heard the term, but wasn't sure it was anything too serious. He perked up when told about a potentially missing kid (white), and said he'd look into it and get back to her. Renee did eventually head out for lunch, and Cas managed to get him to agree to meet with her later in the afternoon. While she was waiting she called Campbell, and the two of them shared information. Campbell had not been aware of anyone watching her, but vowed to be vigilant. Cas found her tail from the morning waiting in the McDonalds they had selected for their meeting, so she and Renee went to another cafe and she told him about the various tails and offered her help. Eventually he agreed to let her watch out for the tails, at the very least. After leaving her police contact, Olga went to talk to an antique dealer about the Heart of All Sorrows. He hadn't heard about it, but he said he'd see what new he could locate, although knowing something of its form or origin would help a lot. He did have a concrete impression of the New Inquisition as being a possibly large group moving in on the occult fringe. He indicated they perhaps used strong-arm tactics and even might have bumped some people off. He gave her the name of an exorcist, Father Tipsy, and told her to look for him in bars. He said he knew more about them.
