Re: Oswald Gysbourne Sr's Residence Part 2
Oswald harrumphed, positively fuming at this new intruder.
"How dare you! Disregarding the sanctity of my home! You are lucky I do not sense deception from you, young man, or you'd find yourself in the body of a goldfish! You teleporters need to learn to use the bloody door when entering a stranger's home. Once was tolerable, twice was pushing it, but you're the third and I'm putting my foot down! You will be allowed to discuss with us what you wish when I feel you've learned some manners," he said forcefully, before lifting his cane a short way and bringing it back down against the ground forcefully. There was a swirl of magical energy, and suddenly Leo found himself outside the house again, just in front of the front door.
While he would find himself free to teleport away, any attempts to regain entry through such methods would be blocked. However, the door knocker, an elegant lions' head with the knocker in its' mouth, and a pair of paws underneath to serve as the knocking surface. Suddenly, the door knocker reached up, pulled the knocker ring from its mouth, and sputtered.
"Pthoo! Ugh, I can't bloody speak with that thing in my mouth. Hrm. Now, then, down to business."
The lion cleared it's 'throat' regally, before asking in the most impressive voice a magical brass door knocker could muster, "Halt, stranger. Before Master Gysbourne you may see, you first must answer the Questions Three.
First! What is your name?
Second! What is your purpose here?
And third! Can this wait 'til morning? It's dreadfully late, after all.
Answer the questions truthfully, or the Master you shall not see."
