[ Her mind is racing, feels like she's trying to find one specific thing that she can cling to, to make it not be true. But the more and more little pieces of it all that she can remember, they all tell a story she doesn't want to listen to.
She'd known, always known, that Flagg wasn't entirely human. Julie had been his most faithful adherent, the one who never had even a flicker of uncertainly while his other lieutenants all began to falter, to doubt. After Nadine jumped, after Lloyd began to crack, Julie had still been there, steadfast. She'd known since she dreamed him, since he called her from over a thousand miles away, that he was something unique. It wasn't until they were in Abraxas that he'd shared the truth, that he was from an entirely different world, a dead one. That he'd somehow come to Earth.
He could possess people. He did terrible things, great but terrible. Encouraged all of them to do the same. He wasn't human at all, Nadine said. Lloyd said they'd tried to get Flagg out of the dungeon but that the mages balked. Seemed worried.
