A friend I've known for years recently came to me in tears. He will not tell me what he's done, but his words were that he'd 'played with fire and got burnt.' What little information he has given me is this: he is being followed/stalked by some kind of beast, a dog with multiple heads that i could only identify as Cerberus. Also, the number seven is following him, which I understand by my studies in numerology to be a psychic number. The combination of these two things strike me as strange, and i have no reason to believe he would ever make anything like this up. He may be foolish, but his heart is good. Whatever this evil, malevolent entity is, it's driving him to the edge of his sanity. He may soon check into a mental hospital if I can't help him. I haven't been able to work with him yet, as he lives far from me, but he is coming for a council session later this week. I have considered preparing a banishing rite, but i am hesitant to execute any such thing until he arrives and fills me in on what he actually did to provoke it. Still, i feel there is something here that I have overlooked. What would a beast such as (Cerberus?) want with someone that knows nothing of the occult? I've dealt with numerous malevolent forces in the past, but never one as well known as this. Any advice or thoughts you may have would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
