Re: The Booking Office
The telegraph appears to be working. It's certainly connected.
Is it bad that I listen to this about ten times a day?

Re: The Booking Office
Kate sends her message, indicating that murder has taken place and sabotage is suspected. While she awaits a reply, she searches the office to find tickets.

Re: The Booking Office
There aren't any tickets in any drawers. It appears someone must have rifled through them and taken much of the paperwork. She does notice a telephone sitting on the floor beneath the desk as she crouches down to riffle through the bottom drawer. It's still plugged in.

Re: The Booking Office
"any luck in there? Need any help?" Artemis yelled over his shoulder into the room where Ms. Kate had gone.
Re: The Booking Office
"I'm okay!" Kate calls back. "Can't find any tickets, but the telegraph appears to be working, and I found a phone too. I'm calling for outside help now!" She keys in the following message: "IMMEDIATE HOME GUARD HELP NEEDED APPLEDOWN STATION STOP MURDER AND POSSIBLE SABOTAGE STOP." Then she tries the phone to see if she can reach an operator.

Re: The Booking Office
There's a lot of clicks and static on the line but there seems to be something nestled within the crackle. Words, perhaps? A familiar voice? It's so hard to make it out. Then, all in a rush, she can hear the voice crystal clear with breathy gasps between some of the words. It's Ilona! "It ... hurts. Who ... whose there? Whose ... voice is ... there?"

Re: The Booking Office
"It's Kate Lacey!" says Kate into the microphone, relieved to hear her voice and know that she is still alive. "Ilona, where are you?"

"I - I can't...." her voice warbles in and out of hearing. "Make them stop...."
"They're...."
"Please!"
"They're...."
"Please!"

"Make who stop?" asks Kate. "I'll do my best to help you, but I need to find you first. Are you on the train?"

The line blasts with static, and nothing more can be heard.

Re: The Booking Office
The little office contains a telegraph machine sitting on a desk by a fabric-protected window with a typewriter in the middle, some paper, and two ink stands and some lists to the right. A kettle sits on a little gas stove (unlit) on the filing cabinet in the corner. A filing cabinet stands at the other end of the long narrow room with a small key rack above it, post boxes line the back wall while policies and procedures in poster form, alongside a calendar and a clock are on the other wall.
**The telegraph machine is click-click-clicking as she enters.**

Re: The Booking Office
The first thing Kate does is check the telegraph.

Re: The Booking Office
Thankfully there is a booklet beside the machine that explains how to decipher the message, though it is awkward to read with a gas mask on.
Ritual seeks completion STOP Efforts disrupted by ignorant locals STOP Sporadic effects only STOP enemy air assaults reduced not prevented STOP ritual seeks completion STOP
The message repeats itself.

Re: The Booking Office
As she places her finger on the device, she feels a hand pressed coolly upon her own, though she cannot see it, she can feel it. It attempts to tap out its own question in place of her own. Does she allow it?

Re: The Booking Office
Kate allows the hand to tap out its question, hoping that whoever owns it knows more about what's going on than she does and figuring she can always send her own question later.

Re: The Booking Office
"Okay, that was weird," says Kate, checking her watch to see what time it is now so that she knows when the 16 hours will be over. She then looks around for any light sources.

It is currently 9:31.
