Something happened.

[there's a moment's pause. It's taking a lot to make this post. More than he thinks he's capable of. But after all that happened with dean--]

During the recent…invasion.

[okay. Right. He needs to just get it out and deal with the fallout afterwards. His voice sounds more certain when he continues. As though he's simply reciting a few facts as opposed to potentially gaining a ship full of enemies.]

Those who have been here for some time are likely aware of the existence of a creature from my world called a Hellhound. They are invisible beasts capable or tearing souls from the bodies of the living in order take them to Hell.

A number of them arrived during the recent invasion. But without passage to Hell available to them, they deposited those souls in a place they considered safe. Here, that meant the room assigned to me.

[and that's…where it gets difficult again.]

Souls are one of the strongest sources of power in existence, and my Grace had been depleting for some time. I didn't…think. I—

[okay. Let's try this again.]

There are those here who people may have noticed have been behaving differently since the invasion. They may not be sleeping as much, or they may be capable of pushing their bodies further than they should. They may be less empathetic than they once were.

There is a possibility that they are a victim of this. If that is the case, their souls are with me.

I need to return them.

[another pause, and a final--]

…I'm sorry.

Why did they take the souls to you?

[rebelled]

I don't know.

[though there's a few potential options. he just knows this isn't lucifer's style]

[brainsqueeze]

How did you keep them safe?

[rebelled]

By storing them within myself. I didn't know at the time that they belonged to the living.

[brainsqueeze]

That's an interesting method.
Can you get the right one back to the right person?

[rebelled]

Once I have made contact with them, yes.

[brainsqueeze]

How many are there?

[rebelled]

I don't know. It's difficult to tell them apart right now.

[brainsqueeze]

But you can tell them apart when you find someone?

[rebelled]

Yes. Once I have checked them.

[brainsqueeze]

How do you know which is which?
I'm assuming there's no written label when you look at them.
