"We'd have to get past the Home Guard's watch, though. Still, The Steadmans have somehow managed to slip past them, and I'm thinking they might've moved somewhere else."
Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
Charles mulls things over..."I'd be very careful of heading down to the shelter Miss Jenkins, if the Steadmans are hunting you, in the event of a raid that's the one guaranteed place they know you'd be, come to think of it, there's little to stop them setting off any local raid sirens in order to force you into the shelter, especially if they have abilities such as Mr Thomson suggests."
Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
"I wouldn't be alone in the shelter," said Anna. "All of the staff and patients would be there too. I'd be among dozens of people."

"I doubt the Steadmans, or their pet would worry too much about those unfortunate enough to be between them and you, besides, this is the perfect place, who's going to believe a bunch of mental patients claiming to have seen a monster?"
Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
"Well, I could go to a Tube station after my shift," said Anna. "There will be lots of people there too, and nobody will know where to find me. I can just take the train to another station so I'm not at the nearest one."

Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
Story looks at Eugene and says, "You may have, but then again you may not have. I've been out of sorts since my companions and I arrived back in London." Looking off he says, "It's as if a heaviness weighs on me, like the journey is nearly complete." He glances at Elizabeth and Brook with a hint of worry before he shakes his head as if clearing his mind.
Looking back at Eugene, and then the others, he smiles and then says, "While the warehouse would be safe grounds, I agree with Charlies. We must be prepared to stop the Steadmans, as they certainly don't place a high value on the life of others. If we go to the warehouse we run the risk of putting lots of people in harms way if we're wrong and they come for Anna here... or even at the Tube. " Running his hand with what little hair he has, as he often does, he continues, "It's best to not leave her, as we know she's a target."

Phyllis has been rummaging around in her vast handbag. "Well, dears, it seems like a very good plan. I have two queries though. Firstly, do we need to fear the building collapsing around us like it seemed with Lord Colville and secondly, how does one actually banish such a creature? Won't it just come back next time someone has this jewel?"
Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
Eugene nods wearily.
"If we don't destroy that jewel, the Steadmans will keep doing this again and again..."

Turning to Phyllis, Story says, "Earlier while at the British Museum's vault I glanced at the De Vermis Mysteriis while Anna and Benjamin were looking at it." He pauses for a moment, smiles, and with a momentary flash of exuberance says, "I glanced quite deeply." Then returning to the subject he continues, "I'm quite confident that I can banish and summon the beast... the Jaegerschreck to be precise." Exhaling he says, "Though I confess, this jewel fascinates me I don't know why I didn't ask about it before. Perhaps because it was quietly filed away in my mind. Nonetheless it has bubbled back to the surface. I recall you saying the jewel paralyzed you somehow, is that correct?" He looks with a inquisitive eye at Eugene.

"There's another consideration," said Anna. "Let's suppose we set up defenses and they decide I'm too well protected, and they just go after someone else. Innocent people are still at risk."

Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
Eugene answers Story as best he can - his memory of that terrible night hazy and disjointed.
"I... I think the jewel was used to conjure up the monster. They paralysed me by a simple wave of the hand."

Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
Phyllis gives Story a hard stare, not sure whether to believe him or not.
"Well you know best, I'm sure." She sniffs.
"If I catch anyone waving their hands and trying to paralyse me, I'll give them what for!" And she grips her old iron umbrella with determination.

Looking at Phyllis, Story says, "It would be quite a wallop." He smiles, and then begins to strokes his chin and pondering what Eugene said in an attempt to recall if the De Vermis Mysteriis made any reference to the jewel.

Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
"Eugene, now that I've considered it for a moment, which I must do. After all when you get to my age it takes a while to open all of the mind's file drawers." He smiles and resumes speaking, "I do believe I recall a reference to your jewel, forgive me for causing you to doubt your own memory. I believe it's called the Shining Trapezohedron, I I remember correctly." Scratches his head and continues, "Though that's about all I can recall. I'd have to return to the British Museum's vault in hopes of finding out more about it and the role it plays."

"Could you go there quickly Story?" asks Elizabeth. "Is there time to find out more before tonight?" "As for the Steadmans' list, I know I'm on it too. And the Captain. I can't remember beyond that ..." she sighs. "Though of course they could decide to attack anyone."

Eugene smiles at Story.
"You're lucky - my drawers have been flung open and ransacked. I can drive you to the museum if you like."

Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
Charles looks a little perplexed with the sudden change of direction things seem to be going, the only books he's really used to being filled with numbers, and sales figures, but shrugs his shoulders, realising a working asylum isn't the easiest place to be during the day time. "Well, I suppose I'll come along too, there's probably not much we can do to prepare here at this time of day anyways."
Re: IC-Ep 3-Convergence(Everyone)
"I'm afraid all this hustle and bustle is too much for my old bones. I'm going to take tea in that tea shop across the road and then rest in the visitors' room here for a bit ready for tonight." Says Phyllis. "I'm afraid reading books is beyond my eyes; far away and I'm as sharp as a nail but I have to wear my glasses just to read a shopping list."
