The party follows Kara to her apartment.  It is in the poor side of town, near the garbage dump (northwest Sandpoint).  As they investigate, Del metamorphs into a Bloodhound to better track Sophia by smell.  Brad hears some sounds coming from one corner of the room.  Del searches there but only finds the broken hand of a doll. 

Kaylee has taken Kara outside to help calm her down while Del, Brad and Grim search for any clue of the girl's whereabouts.  Kara had calmed down a bit and Kaylee comes back into the room.  The others ask if she notices any secret doors or anything in that corner.  As she heads over there, she notices one of the boards in the ceiling is out of place.  The party investigates and pulls it loose fairly easily.  Kaylee sends her air elemental up to check it out.  The elemental reports that it found the girl and is going to bring her back.  Sophia is still alive!  As the elemental lifts the girl, it says that it is being attacked and will defend itself. Grim pulls down another board to allow access.  After Kaylee has climbed up, he must pull down another to make the hole big enough for himself.  The strange little creature sends out a wail and hits Grim just as he pulls himself up.  There is a brief scuffle, with the creature taking damage from spells.  After Del comes up and begins shooting his bow, the creature flees to the front of the building.  The party follows and sees a small trapdoor where the creature escaped.

Sophia is in bad shape, Brad elects to take the girl and her mother to the church so they will be safe.  The rest of the party decides to attempt to track it down and put an end to the family's torment.

Grim, Del and Kaylee track it to an old storage shed.  A message is magically sent to Brad for him to join them.  He sends the mother and daughter along to the church, confident they will arrive safely.  By the time he arrives at the scene, the others have come up with a plan.  They wait for Del to finish summoning a bear and then he and the bear circle around back to prevent escape.  Grim bashes in the door and in it's weakened state the party quickly finishes it off. 

As it is destroyed, it breaks into many small pieces.  It's body is composed of the various knick-knacks and mementos of it's victims.  The party decides to burn it all to prevent the creature from respawning.

After the destruction of the creature, they return to the church to check on Sophia.  They describe the creature to the priests and they determine that is is an entity called an attic whisperer.  This knowledge assits the priest in caring for the girl, she is expected to make a full recovery.

That night, back in their rooms, Kaylee notices some missing personal effects, including several hairpins, a juggling ball, two scarves, a pair of underwear and her comb...
