Synopsis:
Having survived another encounter with the creature, Sir Edward and Mary pause for an afternoon beer. Grey briefly recalls the exploits for which he was knighted by Queen Victoria and the London newspapers dubbed him Witchfinder -- the same name given the infamous Henry Hood some 200 years before. The Captain then brings Sir Edward to Martin Gilfryd, the disciple and supposed murderer of the one man who might best have aided in the creature's destruction.
