"Thank God," Faust said softly. "What is his name?"
"Euphorion," whispered Doktor Faust, taking the crying infant and holding him against his chest. "Because he makes me so happy..."
Helen unnoticed by almost everyone, silently reached an arm towards them.

"This is whacked," Manta said softly. "That baby was dead... Helen is dead... Doktor Faust might as well be, considering the things he's done with corpses... it's a lot to take in. And then, there's Faust VIII.... this is where he came from?"

"No way," Manta said. "You wouldn't have to." he looked away from Helen. "It just freaks me out... her eyes are so much like Eliza's, just the expression... and you can tell that she and Faust are related, they have the same cheekbones..."

"We have to leave," Faust decided. "I'm sorry, Doktor Faust... but it was interesting meeting you."
"Wait," Doktor Faust said in an undertone, slipping Faust VIII a sheet of paper. "The secret is here... good luck..."

"Nothing," Faust said, pocketing the slip of paper. "Just... directions for getting to the next town."
Manta glanced at Netsubo. Mephistophiles was stubbornly trying to draw a sheep.

"That sheep is too sickly," Mephistophiles said. "And it has horns. I didn't want a ram."
Manta sighed and took the paper. Sketching briefly, he handed the paper back to Mephisto. "It's a box. Your sheep is inside."
"Brilliant... you're the first kid since Faust to do such a good job," Mephisto said, impressed. "But don't worry, Netsubo, your sheep isn't a complete waste... maybe I can feed it to the sheep in the box if she gets hungry."

"Remember, there are still witch hunters out there," Manta said. "Unfortunately, Faust VIII looks an awful lot like Doktor Faust, so we'll have to be careful."
"I'm sorry?" Faust said. He seemed to have just been very deep in thought.

"Yeah! That's a great idea!" Manta said. "Let's see... who should we make him look like?"
