Logan sighed as he looked at the mess he had made while researching. A bunch of books laid opened and sticky notes covered all the empty spaces that were left but that didn't matter because his labor wasn't for nothing.

It took sometime to narrow the options after he had a couple of lead but it was easy after that elementary in fact. He got up and stretched and heard multiple pops come from his joints. He sighed and turned back to the desk and picked up a wrinkled piece of binder paper and read it once again just to get the info stored in his head. "The "Ogun Oru" is a traditional explanation for nocturnal disturbances among the Yoruba people of Southwest Nigeria. It involves an acute nighttime disruption once the victim is asleep. This is culturally attributed to demonic infiltration of the body and psyche during daydreaming. Ogun Oru is characterized by its occurrence as either, a female prevalence, the perception of an underlying feud between the sufferer's earthly spouse and a "spiritual" spouse, or the event of bewitchment through eating while dreaming.

The condition is believed to be treatable through Christian prayers or elaborate traditional rituals designed to exorcise the imbibed demonic elements."

This explained how the person or demon could easily control sleeping patterns and most likely could enter the dreamscape. This was already a dangerous mission but this was going to make things a little more hectic but the only thing that was saving Logan from a huge migraine was because they were allies. Logan folded the paper and stuck it inside the envelope along with his letter explaining his situation. He carefully weaved his way across the room avoiding the books strewn about and when he was in the clear quickly made his way to a shelf aligned with various bottles. He picked up one that contained some blues dust and smashed it and with a flash and a electric crackle a pixie appeared it had big eyes that had a bright sheen and had pink tinted skin along with pointed ears. It fluttered there its wings beating so fast that it appeared to be floating.

"I need your assistance, I am to busy but I need a message delivered... will you help?" Logan watched as the creature blinked a couple times before flying closer. The pixie than spoke "You could've asked a normal delivery fairy to help or any other creature but you didn't may I ask why?" It folded its arms and raised an eyebrow.

Logan smirked at its good observation skills. "The reason I chose you was because you have the assistance I require and other than that fairies are unpredictable they can turn evil for different reason so I never trust them with this type of stuff. Besides You've been trapped in that bottle for a while and i figured you probably want freedom." The pixie scoffed.

"So you choose a pixie who are considered chaotic neutral and do you know why I was trapped in that bottle in the first place?"

"I know all about your kind but I know that you guys tend to honor debts with loyalty and yes I know all about the incident."

"But that's the thing I owe you no debt so Ha Ha."

"That's where you wrong you see the council wanted to... how do I put this delete you but you see when I caught you I didn't do as they said I kept you and convinced them to let you live. So you do owe me since I could've easily got into a lot of trouble back then for what i did but i just got lucky. So excuse me while I laugh......... Ha."

"How do I know your not lying to me?"

"You can asked them once you finish delivering this for me."

"Fine I'll do it but If I find out it was a lie you should expect consequences. Got it?"

"I got it and come back after you're done I have more to discuss but For now this is it." My name is Logan by the way."

"Lilly Singh." Logan handed Lilly the envelope and watched as she flew off. He sighed turning back to his messy room and began to clean.
