1899 - The Hidden Hands of the Aether
Esther:
Josie puts the empty glasses down on the bar. She gestures Mr. Clock to follow her. Then she leads the way to room nr. 7, expecting Hugo to follow them with the bag.
Klear:
Hugo picks up the bag with one hand without any visible effort and follows them upstairs.
"You're gonna like it here Mr. Clock. If you ever need anything, just say so."
LuckyDee:
Albert hands Josie the guests' ring of keys and up you go, Josie leading the way and Hugo bringing up the rear, carrying Jonathan's single bag. Upstairs everything's quiet, with most of the guests either being in the common room for dinner, or out altogether. Going up, Jonathan replies to Hugo "I couldn't ask for much more, really, except the more I think about it, the better that glass of wine is starting to sound. Boy, am I going to have a good night's rest." It must be the fatigue that's tainting his talk - he sounds like he's trying to cover up something, or at least to Josie he does.
Opening the door to room seven, which Josie can unlock with the designated key (after which said key is usually taken from the ring and handed over to the guest), the serving girl is immediately confronted with an inn-keeper's worst nightmare: yet another black rat sits on the immaculately made bed, sniffing the air and eyeing the intruder carefully.
Please roll Wits+Empathy for both characters, with a +1 for Hugo and a -3 for Josie.
Klear:
Close, but fail.
