The following days began with a simple, arduous routine. Damon left the mansion early, almost always before sunrise, and returned only when there was no longer any point in continuing on the streets. On the first morning after the destruction of the second point, Morgana found him at the main entrance, adjusting his gloves with his usual calm.
"Going alone again?" she asked, observing him from head to toe.
"Depends on whether someone useful wants to come," Damon replied emotionlessly.
Ester appeared right behind him, already dressed for fieldwork. "Considering you call breaking down doors an investigation, I'll come along."
Damon gave her a short glance. "Then go."
Morgana smiled slightly. "Try not to demolish half the city before lunch."
"No promises," Damon replied, leaving.
