Hi, I would be the friend. My name is Henry Townshend. I run a paranormal investigation agency called the All-Seeing Agency, and I think we might need a little extra back-up on this case we're handling. I can assure you both that if you agree to help, you'll be paid generously for your time and your aid would be greatly appreciated.
My assistant got a call about some strange goings on in the water off the coast of San Diego. I'm thinking Deep Ones, which means one of two things: Either a cultist worshiping the ancient and giant Deep One known as Dagon is summoning them there, or the Deep Ones trying to make a move and establish the Esoteric Order of Dagon (the aforementioned cult) in a larger area than last time. Either way, this is incredibly bad news.
There are some other details that I'm going to go over when everyone meets up at the office, but if you have any specific questions to ask me now, feel free and I'll try to answer them the best I can.
