Conrad Aiken to the rescue!
Inspiration has struck. The vamp wouldn't tell me his name because he is in fact a she. Now that that's sorted, things are falling into place nicely.
And then the epigraph attacked:
Ghostly above us in lamplight the towers gleam...
And after a while they will fall to dust and rain;
Or else we will tear them down with impatient hands;
And hew rock out of the earth, and build them again.
Which in turn gives me a working title, Dust and Rain. (Since I already have a Dust & Clay, this will probably have to change eventually.)
So now I have the three MCs--Dominic, Saben, and Molly--and their respective sinister organizations, perhaps squabbling to fill a void left by the events of Prayers. Now I just need some actual plot, and perhaps a truckload of demons.
