Katalepsis III (part two)

Confirmation that Lozzie is a prisoner, perhaps even a prisoner in her own body. And also, more distressingly, that Evelyn and her pile of occult treasures are no longer the main target after Heather's display of dimension-warping power at the end of arc 2.

Katalepsis III: "Conditions of Absolute Reality" (part one)

Now in the company of some conveniently attractive local occultists, Heather is on a mission to rescue her long lost sister from the lair of a reality-warping god monster, using that monster's own power and hoping it doesn't damn her. Also she's fighting local baddies, making friends with From Beyond fauna, and being a queer harem protagonist, just to keep things from getting too dark.

Now, you might be asking: "how the hell did someone like this end up in the NYPD?" The answer is that 90's cartoon cops are a mythological creature that bears only coincidental resemblance to anything in real life. They are much like the gargoyles themselves in this way.

Gargoyles S1E1-5: "Awakening"

Yeah don't ask me how those thin little support struts are supposed to hold up half a castle's worth of weight. Or how the tower is supposed to hold them up in turn. There was another wizard involved in building this office building I guess.
