midnight
Manguino looked about the window and saw nothing but a little bird circling around the windows below him . `` That strange man will be the end of me ! '' Manguino said , then he sprinted back to the pool , jumped in and had his usual violent sex with Eckma . Up in the spire of the cathedral , Orren was staring at the moon and at the rest of the sky ; and not long after midnight he once again saw the Angels of Mons coming towards Pomperaque , from the northern sky . They were the same four Mons that he saw before but this time they all separated and descended upon the streets of the city . However , the Mons did not ride the streets . They did , in fact , ride a meter above them .
