The Wendigo are targeting specific people.

I don't know what the criteria is, but when they select a target, they'll ignore anyone else who tries to get involved.

If you know people that are stupid and self-destructive enough to go out at night, check up on them.

And if anyone has had luck tracking them, I'm interested to know how. I'll trade whatever information I have, or anything else you want.

who is targeted?

[catsy]

I don't know. Just that they have specific targets in mind.

[lallipop]

you didn't see it? how do you know then?

[catsy]

I saw it. It killed someone and ignored me.

[lallipop]

[Oh.

Awkward.]

who?

[romancekiller]

specific people? do you know one of the people that this happened to then?

[primordialerebus]

Well shit.

Thx for the heads up.

⟪ she speaks quietly – and it's not her first attempt at the message, though she'd not sent the previous ones. it's not like a 'sorry for the thing you had to see' can be of any help right now, can it? ⟫

If you were close to it – did it have a scent?

[catsy]

Just a man.

[Although. There were some murders before this latest batch of Otherworlders arrived, weren't there? Something about Otherworlders not belonging here...]

One of the Claimed.

[catsy]

I saw someone be attacked, yes.

[catsy]

It's literally the least I could do.

[Selina used text for a reason, but she's too preoccupied not to respond in kind; she sounds tired and distracted, more confused by the question than angry about it.]

What?

[foxlore]

⟪ she hopes to all higher powers that selina is somewhere where the voice messages don't endanger her. ⟫

The whe... wen... The creature you wish to track. Was it... akin to an animal? Could you tell if it had a smell of its own? 'tis the one way of tracking I can think of.

⟪ she knows of one and a half wolf shifters, and certainly there must be proper tracking dogs in this world somewhere, too. ⟫

that's a cheerful thought.

if they have a way of knowing, we could have a way of blocking that.

[catsy]

[She's perched on a roof somewhere being Emotional, but it's fine. Don't baby her.]

I don't know. Something like... dirt. Mold. [She is a city cat, she doesn't know much about nature scents.]

I tried to follow it, but it disappeared into the woods.

[lallipop]

[Oh great, another obscure term.]

and what are those?

[catsy]

[well excuuuse her for trying to use proper terminology]

One of us.

[catsy]

If who has a way?

[identifier]

you said they mark specific targets.

so they know. somehow.

and there's a way to stop them knowing.

[catsy]

They're not very talkative, I can tell you that. So I wouldn't bet on learning.

[lallipop]

oh
you mean someone who was brought here
are you sure they were targeted?
maybe it only wanted to kill one person

[identifier]

Yeah, I guess not. something to think about, though.

Are you safe?

[catsy]

I'm not exactly in the mood to debate.

It attacked him. I attacked it. It looked at me like it didn't know why I was there.

[catsy]

It left, if that's what you mean.

[lallipop]

ok
sorry
