Gregory hesitated for a moment,
"Let's see... Since it happened before the festival, then probably on the fourth or fifth of the month?"
Richard fell silent.
'It might be related to that thing...'
The first account of Set. A man that had lived in the ancient world.
It depicted one of the first ever incursions of the creatures of the abyss into the world of man.
That thing that had come, millenia ago to their world, and it had feasted on children in the same manner.
Could it be the same evil entity, or were there just an abundance of creatures that loved to feast on human young within the abyss...
He had no clue.
It was rather terrifying...
He sighed.
"…I see."
Gregory looked at him, unsure.
"Why? Is that detail very important?"
Richard paused for a moment then shook his head.
"No. I'm not so sure yet. It just reminded me of something read in the library. It might be nothing, or it could be a rather fortunate clue for us."
