The smell of LaVey often arrives long before the nosferatu itself makes an appearance, and this time is no different except for one small exception. The stench is accompanied by a soft, muffled whimpering noise. As the creature makes its way out of the Labyrinth, one can see that it is dragging by the ear a smaller man. The companion is bloodied and bruised with duct tape covering his mouth and wrapping his wrists together.
Griggs sniffs at the air, turning around from where he sits, at the bench near the fountain. A curious look is given to LaVey and his bloody cargo, then he stands up, pocketing his iPad. "What you got there?" he asks.
Mary heads out into the main area, dragging a backpack full of who knows what with her. She pauses when she sees the others, loitering and perhaps quietly watching. She looks curiously to the iPad.
LaVey continues to drag his cargo along until he stands nearby to Griggs. Then in one swift, brutal motion he rips the tape off the man's lips. New blood flows into the unfortunate's mouth as a large chunk of skin goes with the tape. "You are a ghoul for the Camarilla are you not? Sent here to spy on us by the Tremere, were you not?" the nossie demands in his harsh, gravel voice. The man whimpers something unintelligible. For his effort, he is rewarded with a sharp slap to the back of the head. Then he manages to mumble out, "Yes... yes I am, it's true...but..." Another slap silences him quite effectively.
Griggs' eyebrows lift as he is spattered by the ghoul's blood. He squats down on his hams to study the specimen more closely. "A thpy, hm?" he muses, reaching out with a gnarled hand to take the ghoul by the top of the head as he looks into his eyes. "Where did you find him?" he asks LaVey.
Mary kneels in close to take a look at the ghoul. "Mmm. An enemy spy." she comments. "Shall I prepare the south wing for interrogations?"
"I found him in the dungeon, attempting to release a conspirator," LaVey tells Griggs before giving the ghoul another slap for good measure. Then he looks at Mary and shakes his head. "No, I have wrung the relevant information from him, and I promised his suffering would be at an end soon." Somehow, this does not seem to make the ghoul any calmer. "As part of you initiation into the Sect, you will hunt him down and kill him. Griggs, if you would be so kind, chaperone her and make sure she does it?"
Griggs nods absently as he is busy staring into the ghoul's eyes as he holds him by the hair. "We thould bring it with uth ath a thnack," he says, standing, the ghoul's head not yet released. Reaching into his robes, he produces a length of leather, wraps it around the ghoul's neck with his free hand, then secures it with a slip-knot. "C'mon boy, thow uth to your mathterth!"
