“It is commanded you cease thy foul uprising against humankind, your merciful creators.

I smite thee to pieces ye ravening beasts,

I sink thy vile soul into the oceans of eternal hell,

To return as silent, obedient stone evermore.”

The silence that followed Ty’s reading was punctuated by the ticking clock and distant emergency sirens.

“You’ve done it,” Lotta said. “You now know everything. There’s nothing more I can do to help.”

“Thank you,” Ella said.

“When you leave, I’m going to call the library and then the police for an explanation on the whereabouts of Miles Sedgwick.”

“I wouldn’t do that,” Ty said. “Remember, the gargoyles have invaded the police, fire, subway, buses, they’re everywhere.”

Lotta removed her glasses and cupped her wrinkled hands to her face.

“May I ask you a personal question?” Ella said.

“Of course.”

“You never doubted our story, or questioned our sanity. Why?”

Lotta very subtly tugged at her left sleeve and massaged her forearm.

“As a small child during the second world war, I saw many horrors, frightening, evil, monstrous things and during the whole time my young mind was thinking: I can’t believe this. I don’t want to believe it. It’s a nightmare. I constantly thought that we were suffering in a cursed time. I believe evil forces exist in this world.”

Tears came to Lotta’s eyes and Ella gave her a hug.

“Thank you for helping us, Lotta.”

“Trouble and pain are constants in our world; we must all do what we can to help reduce it. I know you both have good hearts. I will pray for you.”
