Oswald strikes a lighter and lights a cigarette, the smoke curling unnaturally in the air. He holds the cigarette out, and it floats midair as if offered to an invisible presence. A glowing golden tether extends from his hand, coalescing into a towering minotaur in a 1920s detective coat. The air hums with energy as the spirit begins to search—sniffing the ground, scanning with glowing eyes, and tracing glowing trails through the air. Smoke lingers and curls around places of interest, and golden light highlights the passage of the unseen. The entire scene is clearly unnatural and unmistakably tied to Oswald’s presence.
The spirit he calls—Detective Taurus—is no ghost, but a psychic impression of all who’ve ever hunted answers with bloodhound hearts and weary soles. A thoughtform born of noir, grief, and the relentless need to know. When summoned, he doesn’t speak; he reveals. Through the curling smoke, through glimmers in the dirt, through golden traces only the gifted can see.
It’s not magic. It’s memory.
And memory, when called, always leaves footprints.
