The Beginning  (13+) Lost Souls Found Souls: Work in Progress. #2330105 by Ichabod Crane

This piece I started in Nov 2024 and not sure
exactly why I stopped working on it. I believe
I was having such a hard time with the 17th
Century language it caused me to lose interest.

I intended this to be supernatural, detective type story.
The premise was man against warlock.

A Detective discovers a pattern in bodies being found
and unsolved deaths. The Warlock brothers need the
souls to keep themselves alive. The Detective gets
called out on a couple strange ones, where the dead
body should be hundreds of years old and dressed
accordingly. This story is following him as he strives
to convince others of this as well as trying to track
this warlock. This is supposed to be first chapter, an
introduction to the warlocks. Next was to be a few
hundred years later and introduce the detective.

This is the point I lost interest. Maybe since I
have looked back at it, I'll try to follow it
through by making rest of story without using
17th century language.
