Hello! Yes, Kyle can hear about the rifts earlier in the event and investigate some of the sightings quickly, as he's able to move on his own (roughly 12 hours after the first rift opens for an estimated timeline).
He can go to #4 - Dukewood Lumber Mills if you like and encounter the creature there.
Kyle will be given the information by Sergeant Ellis Ward. He may remember Ellis Ward as the guard who led the interrogations and requested Kyle deliver a letter on his behalf. This time, he returns to ask Kyle to investigate the situation at the lumber mill - both as a favor but also in hopes of protecting the workers there.
Kyle may be able to pick up on the vague implication that Sergeant Ward believes waiting on Castle Thorne's leadership to organize and grant permission might cause a dangerous delay. While Sergeant Ward has strict orders to follow under the King and Queen, Kyle has more flexibility as the Summoned. Therefore, he hopes Kyle will be able to get a head start and return with some useful information.
