Those who came before
Fred's proficiency and connection to the Butchers Blade cleaver has enabled him to see the traces that those who came to the area before him have left in their wake, those who have merely traveled through the area leave ghostly footprints in the area while those who have died leave a much bigger trace in the area as large parts of their souls are left in the wake of their death

The Sons of Salem
We swear to secure our people against the wickedness and evil of the invisible world.
We swear to aid the afflicted.
We swear to stay ever vigilant and seek out the abominable witchcrafts committed in this country.
We humbly pray to be blessed by God to hold all those who consort with the Devil accountable. Amen
—Opening and closing prayer for Sons of Salem meetings.
The Sons of Salem is a loosely-organized conservative populist movement in the United States that preaches violent opposition to anything they perceive as witchcraft, demonic, or monstrous.
Blowhard podcaster Ted Gundy and former general of the mercenary group “Hognose,” Roland Rush, founded the movement in 2010 after a series of violent werewolf attacks and unexplained, supernatural murders in Tennessee. Memberships grew quickly, stoked by Ted’s fiery doomsday rhetoric on his podcast "Truth Seekers" and the aspiration of the masculine power embodied by Roland.
Although they speak of duty, honor, and maintaining the “natural order” of things, the Sons of Salem are driven by fear. They collect guns and appear at protests en-masse as a way of easing the all-consuming terror of their powerlessness. At the same time, they have conditioned themselves to respond to fear with “strength” (read: violence).

Time walking
It's just a jump the left
Amaranth's existence is now so thoroughly displaced through time that he can walk into it. Checking possible alternate time lines for information as he navigates through the hundred timelines near him searching for the one that contains a close enough analogue to himself but nearer to the event he wishes to view. At which point he can see through the senses of his alternate self. Yet, doing so takes an immense amount of time, literally, and though it only appears to take a moment to an outside observer Amaranth comes back each time from hours of actual trekking.
