<strong>GM Note:</strong><br/><br/>Matreus gestured to the portal that was through the study (the room directly north of everyone's position).<br/><br/>"I am sure Fistandia has some method to activate a portal from this side, but that won't be necessary.  You've reopened the portal," Matreus said as he stepped through the portal.  He didn't quite disappear, for you could still see him standing in the Reading Room within the portal.  However, when he did so, the little imp figurine animated into life and sprung upon Matreus.<br/><br/>All anyone can hear is Matreous' piercing shriek as the portal disappears, the doors to the study slam shut, and... the party remains stranded in the mansion.<br/><br/><br/>
