Swamped

Some other force seems to be in control of Mortimer's body. You can't help but wonder if this has something to do with the exiled god you're trying to do something about.

Could Mortimer be the lone believer you're looking for? Or is the god somehow able to take control of him through other means? You feel you need to know more.

The first thing to work out is if the god is involved at all. So you call out to him.

"Is this Goan's doing? Are you working for him?"

Mortimer doesn't react, and continues to advance towards you. You fling the chair at him, and grab another one.

It takes him a moment to untangle himself from the chair. As you're trying to work out what to do next, you spot something unusual.

The strange substance on his boot has turned red. Could that be controlling him somehow?

Well, you could always try to get the boot off him and see if anything improves. Of course, if your guess is right, then it's probably a bad idea to grab the boot yourself.
