The Big Apple

Jack shook his head. "I think I'll just avoid them in the future. With any luck, that thing will encounter some of the creatures the Dwimmermalk sends for us and deal with them for us." He tried to sense the Warden again and looked around. "I guess there are worse places to spend a day. I wonder what's outside this cathedral?"

Cap, "Yes, that is a certainty. Whatever it may have done to us it wont spare doing to whatever the Dwimmerlak put out there. You know I am not a fan of spiders, but I do wish we could have helped that spider some Lord placed to help protect things. Maybe it won't head it's way." he shrugs a bit.

Sam looked around, taking in her surroundings for the first time.
"So what kind of place is this?  It's still so strange to think about being in a whole other world. "

Sam winced but nodded
"Well.... in theory, less technology might make it easier to slip around unnoticed "

Jack shrugged. "I guess we won't know until we look outside. We'll have to resume out search tomorrow for a Warden." He decided to do a mental search for a Warden here. It didn't seem likely that it would be in this world, but it was worth a shot.

The Big Apple

Jack senses something distantly.

Outside the cathedral is a large village of well kept residences and businesses.
Gas lamps glow at street corners.

Two moons hang in the sky and stars of blue hue twinkle in the heavens.

Jack looked around and tried to get a bearing on which way to go. "So, there may be a Warden in this world, but how far away, I haven't a clue. I wonder what they do to get around here? I don't see any taxis. And more importantly, what do we use for cash here?"

"We can walk around a bit, watch some shopping, perhaps?"

Sam tries to "see" the world, looking for clues

There don't seem to be any people on the streets. It looks to be night time.

Jack found this troubling, no people out, even at night. He strained to listen for 'any' sounds. "This doesn't seem right. And if it's right for here, perhaps it's not good for us to be out and around."

Distantly Jack hears the clopping of horse hooves on the cobblestones.

Jack tilted his head. "I hear horse hooves in the distance. It reminds me of the old days with horse drawn carriages."

Jack looked for a place they could sneak into or hide. Perhaps a nearby shop that they might break into and observe the road from inside through a window. "Let's try one of these shops."

Finding a closed shop is easy and jimmying the lock takes a bit longer then Jack is used to but it opens up. Looks like a pottery or ceramics shop.

Jack leads the way in and said quietly. "There may be someone living here, so talk softly. Someone keep an eye open for the back room, in case someone comes out." He kept watching through the window, for the approaching horse. Or if anyone approaches.

After about twenty minutes or so a horse and rider comes by.
The person on it is dressed in some kind of uniform. They have a lantern in one hand the other leading the horse.

Jack shook his head and spoke quietly. "Looks like a uniformed night watch. It does appear we are under curfew. Our best bet is to hole up here for the night and stay out of sight, until we see anyone out in the morning. And I hope there's no one in the back. We could check, but I don't want to wake anyone, if they are there."

Jack nodded. "We don't want to hurt anyone. If they are asleep, it's best if they stay that way. I don't want them to get scared and sound an alarm. And we may need their assistance in the morning." Jack looked around to see if there was a phone. If there's a phone book, there might be some useful information to be found in it.

Puck creates an energy body again and asks Sam to hand him the shiney blue disc.

"I can become a light frequency that isn't visible to most eyes and take a walk to see who might be about."
