>>>>>[Kor is fine. It seems that whatever spell it was he used
to talk with the girl worked but left him a little more than just
out of it. He's spent the last couple of hours in intense debriefing, and is
likely to be there for quite a few more.

This is the LSS footage of the ritual, at least what I was
allowed to have. Kor went down and I mobilized a force to bring
him in / assist LSS in making sure they gave him the treatment
he needed.

+++++ Include Camera1.footage

There seems to have been a lot of this edited out for those of you
that have seen Kor do ritual sorcery before. Whatever spell he is
preparing to cast is dangerous and he knows it. He seems to be taking
every precaution to reduce his risks.

There is a short round of rhythmic dancing and singing around a hospital
bed cluttered with life support equipment, monitors, and random medical
supplies. Huddled in the bed in the fetal position is what must be a
young girl, barely past the age 14. She is malnurished and seems to
be drooling slightly out of the side of her mouth.
Kor raises his hands high, then lowers them to the girl's brow. He
stiffen for a moment then releases her. He sits down on a stool and
looks directly into the camera --

Kor: "Well, she's in there. Its going to be a little tough going in
after her but we will see what I can do. We need this information or
we are dead in the water. I might start babbling incoherently, keep
the camera's rolling. Record everything I do and say. It going to be
important. If I seem to start casting any other spell other than
the one I just cast, take me down as quickly as I can. I dont know
what was done to this girl and I dont want to react to it by accident.
If I get too deep, I wont be me, Ill be her but with very little control
over my magics."

With that, he stands again and begins to repeat the ritual.

[I cut this part out a bit. It was about 20 minutes of dancing and
singing and crap]

Once again Kor reaches forward to touch the frail woman's head. This
time he draws himself closer then struggles to free himself
from some unknown grappling force. He battles for a few seconds and
ends up flinging himself to the othr side of the room where he
collapses to the ground and curls into a fetal ball just outside of
the view of the main camera.

[Im splicing in the footage from camera 2 and the hand held that someone
took in to make sure they didnt miss anything]

The scene abruptly changes to a close up of Kor's face, a bit of spittle
can be seen dancing upon his lower lip. He seems to be attempting
to talk but having trouble focusing.

Kor: "Hey there.", the voice that comes from Kor is light, wispy, and very
confident. "You two looking for a party? *pause* Yeah, I got
a place in mind, you got cred? *pause* Coolage. Lets go. *pause*"

There is a bit of mumbling. He seems to be fighting for words, maybe
having problems having trouble remembering.

Kor: "Whats your pleasure? You wanna watch while I do him, or is she
going to watch while I do you? Maybe a little of both? Mmm'mmm, yeah,
I like that. Oh yeah. Ohh...NO! NO!"

As Kor begins to scream as he flails his arms and kicks trying to get
away from an imaginary pair of attackers.

>From off camera you hear one of the officers exclaim quickly, "HE'S CASTING"
There is a jostling of the camera and several pairs of hands reach into
the frame to restrain him. A female voice is heard very near the camera's
pickup, "Its just a shielding spell. Someone get into the astral plane
and make sure he doesnt gather any more mana!".

The people holding him down release him and allow him to tire himself out
with his unknown assailant(s).

Off camera: "Ma'am, he's powered up everything he's got. It we dont
stop him now all of us might not be enough to bring him down."

Female: "Hit the button. Get *WORBLE*'s people here."

Off camera male, heafty voice: "On three, cut his power sources down, hood
him, and we'll drop him."

A mage hood is quickly and forcefully pulled over Kor's head and his
body goes limp, the female screams out the halt command and the camera
goes dead.

+++++ End Camera 1

We are supposed to get more information when he is out of debriefing. As
far as I know he didnt get "stuck" so he should be fine in a couple
of hours or days. Sorry I had to be the bearer of bad news. More
in the morning]<<<<<
