"I suppose true evil can never be rooted out of the world." Certainly not any world he'd find fit to live in. "But if it can be driven back, or warded off, we would all sleep far more soundly in our beds at night. Tell me - you wouldn't happen to have any sort of potent talisman or sanctifying rites tucked away for just such an occasion?"
