"Could this be Elizabeth's room? I'm not sensing anything here that would be disturbing to Margaret." Harrison offers to the others. "Let's keep looking at the other rooms to get the full layout of the home."

"You might be right... Let's keep exploring."

Isadora goes back to check the door on the left.

Isadora has discovered the bathroom. A large, freestanding bathtub sits on claw feet. There is a toilet and sink with a cabinet above. Both sink and bath are serviced with hot and cold water. Isadora steps inside.

Alice follows Isadora to the door and looks over her shoulder into the room. ""Maybe there's something in the cabinet, she says. "Could Margaret have been taking some medicine that might have influenced her?"

Opening the cabinet, Isadora only finds the typical items you might expect to find in a family bathroom, such as hair care and skin products, brushes, combs and other sundries. There is nothing that looks like medicine.

Harrison will go to the last door facing them and open it up.

Alice & Harrison & Henry,This is a large and spacious room with a large four-poster bed; it is obviously the master bedroom. Furniture is art nouveau style, with organic lines and polished mahogany. However while there is clothing and articles which must belong to a woman, there doesn't seem to be any man's belongings in the room. Consequently, the room feels half-empty. Beside the bed is a bedside cabinet, with a drawer. The wallpaper is violently bright yellow and orange, with decorative swirls resembling flowers and vines. It seems to have been scratched in places, or even pulled away from the walls in strips.

"Yes, this must be the place," says Alice. She looks inside the cabinet and the drawer.

Alice & Harrison & Henry,There are some items of women's clothing in the cabinet, but the drawer is locked.

"I don't suppose any of you can pick a lock?" asks Alice. "Maybe the key is hidden in this room somewhere, or it could be one of the ones Beth gave us." She examines the keyring to see if any of the keys are the right size.

"I'm sorry but I don't pick locks." Harrison says as he runs his fingers along the torn wallpaper.

"These patterns are so odd, why would Thomas think that it would be a good place to keep a woman who thinks there is something hidden in the walls? This room seems so out of place with the rest of the house." He muses.

OOC,None of the keys match. The lock will either have to be picked or forced.

OOC,Could we use Mechanical Repair to try to pick the lock, seeing as it's probably a simple one? We can also search the room to see if we can find the key hidden somewhere.

OOC,Try Mechanical Repair then. Search won't help I'm afraid. You can roll Strength at 12 to wrench it open if you want.

OOC,[b]Henry[/b]'s the best at Mechanical Repair. He should probably try first.

Alice & Harrison & Henry,Henry fiddles with the lock but is unable to get anywhere with it. The draw remains stubbornly closed. They become conscious of the fact that they can hear water running in the bathroom. It has been going for some time, but they have been intent on the drawer and failed to realise it.

"How long has that been running?" wonders Alice aloud. "I'd better check on Isadora and shut the water off before the bathroom floods." She heads in that direction. "Isadora! Is everything all right?"
