[QUOTE="Byrons_Ghost, post: 948549, member: 7396"] Taylor continues pondering the situation: [i]There must be something that they're onto here. He's already said that they came to me because they believed I was working along similar lines. So they must sense something else out there as well. Only they're not really trying to reach it; it's more like they're trying to study, or perhaps even supress it. Then there's been mention of these archetypes, these myths, manifesting in people. It certainly makes sense- anything this powerful would have to manifest sometimes. There could be ebbs and flows, like a current, and the high tides could come up into the human conciousness, and perhaps even the physical environment. But what people? He's spoken of "treating" and "experimentation", as if they're also attempting to supress those who have tapped into this force. He's compared it to childhood fears, mental disorders, all sorts of things which clearly indicate he considers such people to be abnormal. How can something be an aberration if it's common to everyone?[/i] Seeking to buy himself some more time, Taylor asks, "How exactly do these archetypes manifest in people? I understand you can't give me specific details, but I thought perhaps an analogy or hypothetical situation. "I'm curious about the people I'd be dealing with, you see. I don't want to spend my time chasing middle schoolers with ouija boards or anything like that." Taylor smiles placatingly. [i]I've definately got to get some more information from him before I leave. I want to find the same things, but not as a part of his organization. And I have a feeling that joining just to discover things would be... complicated. So I need to get enough information to allow me to pursue leads on my own. Hmm... we seem to be getting away from the more common areas of the city. I wonder if there's an actual destination here? Seeing where we're going might give me a clue as to who it is I'm dealing with...[/i] [/QUOTE]
