Lih got up in the middle of everything and excused himself. Dorian followed the young detective to the back halls to the restrooms with his gaze before turning it back to Ivan with a shrug.
"Nox should be here. This meeting wouldn't be happening if he wasn't coming. It's not that I want him working on this case with us, but his knowledge is far greater than mine in the tunnels, with monster you will encounter, and with these things you are going to find. I doubt you can clear the tunnels of them, not with more like you and Nox. The boy needs to get that courage back, the rougs scared him. And the failings of the man called Boda have shaken him. He needs a win." Dorian confided in Ivan. "Nox and I had a falling out, he may not show even though he asked for the place and time. But he will do this which is why I'm bringing you in. The two of you have a common ground and work well together, he will answer your call at the very least."
Lih returned looking slighty better than he had when he left. Dorian chuckled, "Officer Lih, I shot Alistair Pavlo in the head three times while he was trying to kill me. He should be dead. But when the officers went back, the body was not found, no remains, no blood stains - nothing. He either survived or whatever else is down their ATE him."
Lih asked about Nox and Dorian felt unqualified to say why Nox did anything, but he knew the answer anyway "Nox will help you because it's what he does. He's coming here because I told him it was about the monsters. Nox lives for the hunt, and he's not hunted at all since he's been helping Cruz. He is not your conventional warrior. He is Atharim, Victor, that is why he does this. He knows nothing else but viloence and monsters." That was more for Dorian, to remind him Nox only did things for himself, his betrayal just happened to come before the boys.
Dorian looked to Ivan. "You'll also want to coordinate the ammo you want to take with Nox. Some types work better than others. Nox also finds the simple weird things are useful when your power gets weak. Or to push it out farther. The day we met him at the fire, do you remember that? He was carrying a sling, in that sling were pepples, shattered glass, baby powder. And that was only thing things I knew what he could use it for. Nox has been using his power for well over a year to hunt monsters, I'm sure he can show you some useful tricks of his trade."
