Speaker 1: H m.
Speaker 2: Oh, Papa, I can't wait for you to wake up.
Speaker 3: We're going to play so many fun games together.
Speaker 2: Who's the.
Speaker 4: Shore yourself?
Speaker 5: Or are you here to play too?
Speaker 2: What the hell?
Speaker 1: Lady?
Speaker 3: Who the fuck are you?
Speaker 4: Oh no, no, no, meet, I'm here to talk to
the one in charge, Queen Lilith. I am truly honored,
but I don't understand what vexes you, mighty dark mother,
honored honort, you should be grateful if generation you get
a free past to create as much chaos as you please,
using a little loophole to be reborn into a new
meat sack.
Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, yes, my Queen, that is the way of it.
Speaker 4: We seven Sins balanced the virtues and ensure the scales
never tilled one way or the other. Hmmm, such a
wonderful system, so balanced, so fair. I hate it. It's
time for a change. M h.
Speaker 7: M hm.
Speaker 1: M hm.
Speaker 5: Hm.
Speaker 4: You honor your queen with this meal. Thank you so much.
Speaker 8: Mm hmm.
Speaker 4: What do we do with a drunken sailor? What do
we do with a drunken sailor?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 4: My, oh, you poor thing. I wish I could help
one you deserve. You deserve so much better.
Speaker 6: Yes, what I can do.
Speaker 4: Seek out this man. You love me whold he helps
every after all, he's such a good.
Speaker 5: He's always been such a good boy.
Speaker 6: M Valmont. The Black Raven Chronicles created by Jonathan Miller,
produced at Edber and Echo's Studios. Voice direction by Jacqueline Burns.
Speaker 7: You're listening to w AVM The Wave ninety eight point
one on your radio dial. I am DJ Johnny B
playing you the best rock in Black Raven. This hour,
we've got something new from Adam to Adam, some Pirate
and the Witch Queen. But right now it's Alexandro with
Crisis on your only.
Speaker 1: Station for Rock in Black Raven.
Speaker 7: WAVM The Wave ninety eight point one.
Speaker 2: Hi, you might not remember, but I'm afraid Valmont, Yes
that Valmont. I just wanted to be a normal guy.
But when you're orphaned as a child, raised by a
billionaire uncle, are as tall as shack freshman year and
can't die, that's anything. But the last part is relatively new. Well,
everything started last year when I took a When I
took what I thought was a simple case to find
dumb lost dog, it led to meeting a few federal agents,
which then caused me to get killed by some monster
and meet the doc. See what I didn't know was
some assholes. We're trying to cause problems for a group
of vampires living under the city. Oh yeah, if you
didn't know already, vampires are real. Honestly, I probably wouldn't
have figured that out if it wasn't for my pal Leslie.
He asked me to help one of these vampires to
solve the whole thing. That's how I met Kira, and boy,
we hated each other at first, but you know, that's
how all good partners start, right, So what did we do?
Only team up with some werewolves and a wear cat,
But they'd kidnapped Kira, so I had no choice but
to take the fight straight to them. Turned out the
assholes had a backup plan and sleever. Well see, I
took offense to that, so Cain and I had a
little showdown. It was going my way until that dick
of a senator stabbed me in the fucking back.
Speaker 1: So I died.
Speaker 2: And woke up in some weird interrogation room. There I
found out my friend since childhood, my my ex girlfriend,
was in fact Lucifer, my wacky neighbor Gabriel. Yes, that Gabriel.
Speaker 10: Oh.
Speaker 2: Sh turns out my parents weren't human, and neither am I.
They gave up everything for me. No one really knows
who they were, but their gift to me is something
only a divine being could bestow. I don't stay dead, ever,
so I got to have round two with Cain and
top that stuck up fanged pricks some manners showed him
just how mortlly he was.
Speaker 10: Wow.
Speaker 2: Oh. A few days later I finally found that damn talk.
That was a year ago. Now A lot has happened since.
My love life had some twists, like trying things with Kitty.
Speaker 3: I kiss we just worked better as friends.
Speaker 2: Huh yeah, I guess you're right. I'm sorry, We're just
two different as people. Kind of sucks.
Speaker 3: Well, we can still, you know tonight, right?
Speaker 2: Oh hell we can. We can go start that right now.
But that was really for the best. I reconnected with
Sarah not long after. I mean, we still argue, but
it's not nearly as bad as it used to be.
Speaker 8: You know.
Speaker 2: I swear sometimes I think I could kill you, but
you just come right back. So I guess my life
is as normal as it's ever going to get. My
girlfriend's a cop. My best friends are angels and were wolves,
and I work for a mobster from time to time.
Speaker 3: Excuse me? Are you mister vaumat? The scary lady said,
you can help me. I don't know where I am.
Speaker 7: And the only.
Speaker 2: Yep, everything is perfectly.
Speaker 11: Normal, folks, if you're out traveling the roads today.
Speaker 3: Rose Kara, we have to do something. Oh godness, we.
Speaker 10: Have to help her, Kitty, what do you mean, help who?
Speaker 3: You don't understand he's going to kill her. Maybe he
already has.
Speaker 4: I don't know, kitty, honey, slow down what you're talking about?
Speaker 3: Just here. Look.
Speaker 1: Authorities believe that the body is that of a student
from our own Ravens River Intermediate School who went missing
earlier this week. However, due to the injuries inflicted, they
have not been able to confirm the identity. The FBI,
who is working with the Black Raven Police Department, says
they will have a statement on the matter shortly.
Speaker 6: Oh my goodness, that poor girl or a daddy part
of the family.
Speaker 3: Nah, that ain't it.
Speaker 10: Humans can be truly monstrous to do such things to
a child.
Speaker 3: No, less, I don't think it was a human. In
my dream, I saw a monster eating a child right
where they said they found her.
Speaker 10: You had a dream. I'm not sure. I follow.
Speaker 4: Kitty has the ability to dream all but she can't
really control it. Sometimes she dreams herself place and sees
things through them. But yeah, we should probably look into this.
Speaker 10: Ah, I see, walking in dreams can be difficult to discern,
and it's very easy to misinterpret them. We cannot be
too careful. This monster could just be a man simply
doing monstrous things.
Speaker 3: What difference does it make we have to do something.
Speaker 10: Don't, don't worry. I completely agree. The question is what.
I'll reach out to Agent Black and call Sarah to
see if she knows anything. Kitty, you get Caleb and Lisa.
We should see Afric two. If anyone can help, it's him.
Speaker 8: No, I definitely felt it too. Rath's puppet's been killed
and he didn't finish his work. It won't matter. That
was one of his most disgusting choices anyway, I mean,
slaughtering children. It's just so pathetic. It's not surprising. But yes,
he's gone, just like let me. But it matters not.
We five are more than enough to keep things in line. No, look,
I have to go my own vessel has a meeting
with its big as investor and this, this here will
create so much suffer. Sorry about being behind, Owen, I
hope you weren't waiting too long.
Speaker 9: No, not at all, Bobby. Are we all said on
this property? How the tests come back?
Speaker 8: Well, it seems we passed all the EPA tests and
you know, I'm sure we can buy our way around
local zoning.
Speaker 9: Nothing illegal, right, I'm trying to prove something. I want
to do it right.
Speaker 8: Don't worry. Our lawyers will ensure everything is by the books,
you know that, or we'll just get the books changed.
After all, that is what leagueless for.
Speaker 10: Perfect That's what I like to hear.
Speaker 9: How are we looking on demolition?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 8: Excellent, really, and after all somebody already started it for us.
Speaker 10: So what happened here?
Speaker 9: Again, I'm a little fuzzy on the details.
Speaker 8: Oh you know, I think they had some sort of
animal that broke loose and smashed up one of the labs.
Apparently some guards got injured and it turned out that
one of their scientists was some you know, terrorists.
Speaker 9: A terrorist can't be serious.
Speaker 8: Well, he was killed during whatever happened here. The rumor
is he worked for the guy who killed that senator
last year.
Speaker 9: The value probably plummeted after all that. We might be
able to buy the whole property. That's great news.
Speaker 8: I told Joen this here is the perfect spot for
your development. We put town homes over there, the office
of family center here, at a pool right there, and
still have enough space for at least seventy five more homes.
He should be able to tie into the existing infrastructure
and save a lot there too.
Speaker 9: Great idea. Let's look into it and plan around that.
What do we meet with the contractor?
Speaker 8: We have a meeting schedule tomorrow at his office. Think
two o'clock.
Speaker 9: Sounds like everything's in good hands. Oh maybe I'll finally
get some free time to catch up with the family.
Speaker 2: Here you go, kiddo. You can have some milk and
cookies while we wait for my friend. She'll be here
soon to help us.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm not really hungry, just tired.
Speaker 2: Well, I'm sure we can get you someplace safe to
sleep soon. How does that sound good?
Speaker 3: Gonna help me?
Speaker 2: Of course? I just need you to answer some questions
for me, Okay, easy stuff like can you tell me
your name?
Speaker 3: My name is Lily, Lily Rose.
Speaker 2: Lily Huh, that's a pretty name. My cousin's name is Lily.
Do you know how you got here?
Speaker 3: I don't know. The scary lady came. She woke me
up and showed me to you.
Speaker 2: The scary lady. Who is she?
Speaker 3: I don't know. I don't think she hurt.
Speaker 10: The bad name Lily.
Speaker 2: This is my friend, Sarah. She's a police officer and
she's gonna help you get taken care of.
Speaker 3: I don't think she can help me.
Speaker 2: Sure she can. She's the best, right, Sarah, Nabe, Who
are you talking to? I'm talking to Lily. She's sitting
right here. Hey, why are you looking at me like that?
Speaker 1: You?
Speaker 2: Okay, Frank, there's no one.
Speaker 3: There, Frank, Sarah. So the bad is happening? Holy shit?
You guys have a ghost?
Speaker 2: Oh what?
Speaker 10: Oh dear, this is definitely not good.
