The Trusty

Excerpt: 

“Depends on whom you ask. Your occultist friends would call it a potion, your scientists a phosphorescent mixture of unknown compounds. That wacko who drove you here might have some weird classification for it he saw on some odd reddit post, or he might just call it extraterrestrial ooze. They would all be right on the phenomenological sense that they are calling it what they see it to be. The real question, which you asked earlier, regards its purpose. There’s an invasion coming.”

“You said that,” I said, “and it makes sense, but which invasion? My friend in the van won’t shut up about the aliens, and Lucy keeps raving about her dreams and the rising of strange monsters from out of the sea. Larry’s all on about migrations and the periodic emergence of some as of yet unknown species. It’s like everyone’s saying the same thing but different.”
