Love this, Rem! Your dialogue’s great, and I have a soft-spot for anything that smacks of a realistic take on how society would handle people with supernatural abilities. Both “sorcerous” and the “any levity brought about by Medan’s alcoholism” line made me smile.

Ha, I liked this one. Great premise, very eerie. My money’s on Nyarlathotep. This sounds like his kind of thing.
