Can Music Save Your Mortal Soul?

The Never Ending Quest - Episode 108214

The heroic identity of Fred has slowly transmorgified in the Realm Beyond Realms into the identity of Frank Ballast, jack of all trades in the mysterious town of Wellness, Ohio. It's a bustling city, a nice mix of manufacturing, truck stops and distribution for industry all over the midwest and the north.
But 'Wellness' has a secret. It's not well at all. It's a sick, sad, sorry city and for every two, three-hundred people that enter, twenty or thirty just never leave. Some stay and get a job. Some vanish forever. Some are found dead.
So what's the deal with Frank Ballast, who is being chased through a recording studio by something with way too many tongues and the secrets of all the kids in his fifth grade study group.
As Frank cranked up the volume, stunning the thing in Recording Room A with dangerous levels of 'Toad The Wet Sprocket', he flashed back to what brought him here.

  1. His FBI boss had sent him here unofficially.
  2. The Chief of Police for D.C. had hired his three-man P.I. firm to investigate a homeless advocate who vanished on vacation.
  3. When a retired British S.A.S. officer sends an email asking for help, his buddies help.
  4. Every cop in the town next door, Brillingsworth, knew not to ask questions about the screams at night...Officer Ballast figured he'd buck the system since he had incurable cancer.
  5. A secret underground of shipping company employees were tired of their friends vanishing so they hired slightly insane mercenary Ballast to check in on things.
  6. The President's best friend from elementary school was found dead in this very building so he officially sent Secret Service Agent Ballast.
  7. Other option here...
