1899 - The Hidden Hands of the Aether
Esther:
Josie closes the pantry door behind her and steps into the kitchen with a puzzeled look on her face. How could the animal have gotten in and not have touched anything? Still thinking about it, she opens the backdoor and looks out into the alley.
LuckyDee:
At first you see nothing, but then the culprit comes scurrying out of the stables, making a dash towards the street as if fleeing from your presence.
Esther:
Josie looks around the kitchen. Doing dishes can wait and if she's not needed she might step outside and check the stables.
LuckyDee:
With a lot of the inn's current guests having come by train or airship - they are Engineers after all, or at least closely related to them - the stables are relatively empty. Luckily you can always rely on Atlas, the Fines' cart donkey, to welcome you with a loud off-kilter bray. All that's accompanying him at the moment are a rather dishevelled looking mare and a gigantic cart horse. All are happily chewing away at whatever they can curl their lips around and yank free.
Esther:
Pretending to just have stepped outside to have a rest and pad the horses, Josie has a quick look around the stable. If there's nothing out of the ordinary she has to go back inside to start the endless job of doing the dishes
