Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
The weird disk is just the way it is, nothing in the room helps to make any sense of it.
Among the books, the group finds an old notebook of an anonymous traveler, who was passing by Coney Island along his journey. It is decrepit and the pages are yellowed, it dates 1864.
The writer describe the people of Coney Island as savages. He had the curiosity of an anthropologist.
According to his words, the savages said to be ruled by undefined entities that emergede from the depths of the Bay of Fundy, from a place called K'n-yeil. Those entities created underground tunnels connecting the sea floor with the island. The writer also says the entites organized the people of the village in two social groups.
A first group are called guardians and they are among the richest families. These administer the city and are the only ones who have contact with the entities. The others lives normally as fishermen and farmers, following the lead of the guardians. Guardians have transformed agriculture in the island, by intensifying the cultivation of grain for the production of alchoolic products. Common people don´t wants to become guardians. Some of the guardians' children are said to disappear. The writing ends when the writer decides to do something to meet one of those mysterious entities.
No other relevant information is found in the secret room.

"Looks like this place has been rotten to the core for a long time," Michael says. "Unless you wanna stick around here, I say we go confront this Darcy dame with what we know. I've got a feelin' she's the real boss around these parts."
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
”That might prove difficult, considering we found her corpse...”
Ivy smiles, not unkindly.
“Though it wouldn’t surprise me to find her alive and well, the crazy things we’ve witnessed recently,”
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
"We'll have to find an entrance to those tunnels," says Kathryn. "That's where they've taken Timothy. Maybe Carson will know where to look for them and what the disk is. Before we go, let's check the opposite door in the hall and see what's in that room."

Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
Acknowledging his foolish mistake, Michael realizes that the shocking thing he recently witnessed shook him up worse than he thought.
"Yeah, I forgot about that," he admits. Trying to regain some confidence, he goes on. "I'll check out that other room. Watch my back." He goes over to the door, hoping it won't be any worse than what they've already found.

The last room is just a small bedroom with a single bed, The windows are shuttered planks. There is an old and empty wardrobe and a lot of dust in the air.
OOC: Does the group confirm it goes back to see Carson? |
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
OOC: Yeah, sounds good. |

Michael agrees with the others to check out Carson. There's nothing here he wants to ever see again.
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
On their way back, Kathryn keeps an eye out to make sure they're not being followed.

Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
The group leaves the mansion, passes through the silent and dark village, and then goes up to the hill, until they reach the clearing with the huts.
Carson is there, anxious to hear what they found.
When questioned about the underground tunnels, he has to say the following.
"Yes, I think there are tunnels under the island that communicate with the sea. I never managed to find the entrance. The girl of the inn. I think she knows something. Once I saw her going to the shore. When I got there she had disappeared. I looked for an entrance, but could not find it. The Inn's owner is their servant. I don´t know about the girl.
Also, there´s a pond in the garden of the mansion. Once I see some shadows entering the waters. Maybe, theis is another way to get to the tunnels."

"I'm not a good swimmer," says Kathryn, "but I am good at following people without being noticed. I can try to follow the girl the next time she goes to the shore. We did see wet footprints going between the mansion and the pond, so that probably does lead to the tunnels, but that way is probably more heavily trafficked, and possibly by Timothy's...father and others like him."

Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
Ivy has been quiet for a while, mulling over some unpleasant thoughts. When she speaks, it is with some reluctance.
”Remind me, Mr. Carson, what did you say before about killing the boy? That it would end all this madness?”
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
Carson replies:
"I would evoke a Celtic deity, called Nodens. I need Alyssa´s child, to sacrifice him to evoke Nodens. Nodens is the God Pan, the god of Eros, the force of life. Nodens will cause a cataclysm that will destroy Greyton, Flowerege, and their submerged city in the bay. As I told you, you would be safe here at the top of the hill, but many innocents in Greyton would die. This is one possibility, unless you find another way to stop them.
You can try following the girl´s moves, but the girl sticks around the Croockey´s Inn, and Croockey has some thugs there. "

"I can handle a few thugs," Michael says, tapping his pistol. "Let's drop all this talk about killin' kids until things get much worse. Havin' the lady 'tec shadow the dame sounds jake to me."
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
"Yes, there must be a better way," says Kathryn. "We'll just have to find it."

"I sincerely hope you're both right, but, like it or not, we may have to do something drastic. But yes, we should follow this girl first."
Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
"Before we go, we found this in the mansion," says Kathryn, showing the disk to Carson. "Do you know its purpose?"

Re: August 18 - 8.00 PM - The Anderson mansion
Carson looks at the object, intrigued.
"It must be something they use as a sort of key. I don't know its specific use. I believe these triangles indicate how it should be positioned to activate something. I have read of similar things used to open passages by deforming the space tissute. I don't know if you are willing to believe in such things."
