Edward Carnby, a private investigator hired by Emily Hartwood, had stepped forth into something he would come to regret getting himself involved with. He had faced monsters before, murders, other very bad people, but he had never faced 'actual' monsters.

He clutched the talisman around his neck, his eyes scanning for any threats within the Derceto manner. He had just slipped back into Derceto after facing more of those horrid monsters in the other reality, and he was certainly on edge. His revolver was still out, grasped in his other hand as he looked around for anything out of place-finding nothing. It seemed he really was back, and thank god for that. He slowly placed his pistol back into it's holster and tucked his talisman away, not wanting to draw attention to it. He let out a slow breath, leaning himself against the wall, his head leaning back as he tried to calm himself-not needing to become panicked for no reason.
