The rain has picked up quite a bit and is pummeling the inn. Unfortunately for both Mattie and Lucienne, they find a small leak has begun in their rooms. Nothing major, just a small leak in the middle of their rooms. Luckily, the leaks aren’t over their beds.<br/><br/>Paddy drops off both Lucienne and Tina’s luggage before claiming a room of his own. He takes the room facing west towards the house.<br/><br/>Lucienne and Celeste will see that their windows face a plot of land circled by a wooden fence. Large portions of the fence have fallen down or rotted away. The area in the middle is nothing but mud. There is also a building that is part of the ruins.<br/><br/>Celeste will see the paintings are mostly of the sea, perhaps from the very island she is now on. One painting of note is a portrait of a man with dark hair and a beard. The man is wearing what might appear to be a priest’s robes. He is wearing a silver pendant that is difficult to make out. The painting has a plaque beneath it that says Zedekiah Marsh, Founder. As the only luck one, Celeste will find that there is a loose floorboard in her room. Under that floorboard she will find some thick canvas, like what you would make a tent out of, wrapped around a leather journal. The canvas is covered in dirt and whatever else it might have collected living under the floor. The journal is bound in leather with GT etched on the cover. It is old and worn with many pages either missing or badly damaged. The journal is obviously in English.<br/><br/>After about twenty minutes, the smell of food will waft down the hall. Mary will yell out that supper is served. You will all find a bowl of fish stew waiting for you. It has salted fish, potatoes, celery, and carrots all in a thick brown liquid. It is edible and isn’t the worst tasting thing. There is also some almost stale bread and tea waiting for you. Tina will still be asleep. Paddy doesn’t take dinner and isn’t in his room. Mary is in the kitchen if you need anything. By the time you finish eating the rain will have calmed down some.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Note</div><div class="spoiler_body">This is a non-linear adventure. From this point on, it will be up to you and the investigators to decide what to do. There will be a few incidents that will spur them to investigate, but ultimately it is up to them.
