It was deliberately sloppy so that those of us who know what we're doing will know not to use it, and hence misuse it. And those of us 'in the know' will be able to counter those, as you put it, 'whoopie warlocks and their fanboi chorus' all the easier, since they can't draw enough power to be a true threat. Think about it. From what I've heard, Chtulu was terrifying back in the 1930's. Now, he's an Internet meme."<br/><br/>He turns to Mica, "No, probably not. I think this artifact is closely linked with the Wild Fae in some way, and they wouldn't take to kindly to us de-powering it that way. No, for some reason, we were lead to it, and it fell into our hands. Remember what Duponte said when Mica snatched the statue? Something to the effect of, 'This is as it should be.' I can verify that he's a Wild Fae, with the Ur-King and the Wild Hunt, but I cannot tell what his status with the Hunt is.<br/><br/>"Right now, I think our next order of business is to figure out what the stories about this dog are."
