They walked into the lobby, having obviously missed a bit of a show, as far as 'Adam' could tell.

... Gawain found himself standing in an all-too-familiar hotel lobby, dressed in his noir Halloween costume, and holding an ornate cudgel along with Arthur.

Confused, he said, "Uncle?"

"Gawain....where are why, why do I feel the need to wash my brain out with soap, and ....and where's Nimue?"

"I am grieved to say I have been in this accursed place before. Where Nimue is, I have no idea." Gawain glanced down at the note in Arthur's hands, and his eyes widened.

"Uncle, look ...."

"Yes...something about a scavenger hunt, wasn't there?" Arthur reads over the note, then hands it to his nephew. Although he's no doubt read about

"I do believe so," Gawain replied. "And I believe I know where it's telling us to go ... goddesses help us."

"What concerns me is not so much the destination, but rather who we might be forced to employ to reach that destination. Oh, my uncle, please understand ... I try my level best not to associate with unsavory types. Alas, when one is in the rare book business, one encounters unsavory types ... types who will stop at nothing to acquire rare titles."

Gawain sighed. "I know of someone who could undoubtedly help us recover the manuscript, but I hate the idea of employing his services."

Arthur sighs. "I understand your point. If we can find Nimue, this is best discussed with her. And I pray we can find her. I don't want to lose anyone now."
