<blockquote><div><cite>Angel wrote:</cite>"My name's Celaire."</div></blockquote><br/>"Celaire," Alyssa repeats. Glancing down at her notebook, she writes down and underlines her first witness's name across at the top of a blank page, leaving the space below empty for later questions. The next three pages receive similar headers; one each for Vanika, Rynn, and Botch - the last for personal notes only, barring some miraculous change of heart of the thief's part. Even then, it's unlikely he'd make an appearance with half the watch present... come to think of it, it's a wonder that Vanika and Rynn haven't made a run for it themselves yet. Or, for that matter, that no one else has noticed a ten-foot demon in their midst. She'll have to handle the pair quickly - and very, very delicately - before they come to anyone else's attention.<br/><br/>"Miss Vanika, would you ask Miss Rynn to come here for a moment? I'll need to speak to both of you as well," Alyssa says. She waits a moment for the demoness's acknowledgement, then turns her attention back to her first interviewee to finish her questioning. "If you could, Miss Celaire, please describe in your own words the events leading up to the portal mishap. Did you observe any suspicious characters or unusual phenomena?"
