Summary of Receipt
Manager 5 successfully manages the Wicked’s control over his magic. However, using the magic against Crawford was unexpectedly unable to weaken her, instead enraging her. She’s likely headed to Indiana in the USA, so the four people in Russia are going to teleport to Astoria and provide assistance against the Elder.

Well, that was right, educational, wasn't it? Not exactly a balmy lesson, mind you, but on some accounts reassuring. I won't bore you with my hypotheses, not here, not now anyway. For right now, I'll just say that the Aces are still high as ever, and the flames flicker dimmer than they would like to. But we've got bigger fish to fry right now. Or, well, dragon wyrm things in any case. I'll do a proper write-up when this hurlyburly is well and done. For now, I'll update everyone on the WRF situation, choice?
Well, as you should all be on the up and up by now, Big Guy had me meet up with the unkillable mystic Rasputin to deal with Ozhog's escaped customer by the name of Miss. Crawford, yeah? I was selected for this task because I have spent many years of my wasted youth messing around what Rasputin calls "unclean" magic. I would reckon to just call it Eldritch magic. Still, not an easy-go-lucky past time I reckon. And due to the present circumstances, there was some concern about me tapping into that unknowable source of power and possibly losing myself to it. Good news, that was not the case. Like I said, I'll document that out later, though.
The problem is, something else went bloody wrong with the incantation. Not sure what happened, but the magic didn't wound Miss. Crawford, it just enraged her. Well, you know, maybe it did nick her. Getting impaled by a magic spear would piss anyone right off, I'd think. The point is, it did not WEAKEN her like we expected it to. Rasputin seemed right-boggled by the result. Anyway, she took off like a bolt towards we're all guessing Indiana back in the States. So, we're going to pack up and take the Freezer's airport back towards Astoria as soon as we can. But that'll only put us on the West Coast, yeah? So heads up for Long Island and company, you've got quite the peeved Elder headed your way. We'll be there to lend a hand as soon as we can, though we still don't really know how to contain her.
