We met at the facility where Julian was being contained. It was a mix between a jail and a health facility. With healers on staff, they tried to care for their patients as best they could, but the patients here were not ordinary cases. They were dangerous, and needed to be kept under tight security and behind very thick steel doors.
Surrounded by guards and accompanied by the healer on night staff, all of the council members and I were led to where Tony’s cell was located. Even through the thick door, I could hear snarling on the other side as well as the clanking of chains.
“Is it safe to enter?” one of the councilors asked the lead guard.
“We have him restrained,” the lead guard replied. “But security is never guaranteed, especially if he sees any of you as prey.”
