Clues

Sessions

Session 1

Connie and Tom take a train to London to consult with Albert about Connie's bad dreams. Albert ascribes Connie's dreams to contact with her Other Side self, and prescribes a natural herbal tea, of Kohlrabi and Geranium, to dampen this effect. Connie and Tom buy the necessary ingredients and Connie drinks the tea before they board a train back to Oxford. On the train Connie quickly falls asleep and is seized with jerky movements. At the prompting of a conductor, Tom tries to wake her up, but she remains unconscious. At the conductor's urging, they get off at the nearest station (at the outskirts of Oxford) so that Connie can receive first aid. Tom calls Albie, who rushes over on the next train. The medic wants to give Connie a sedative to prevent her involuntary movements, but Tom tells him that she might be having some unforeseen reaction to the tea she drunk and that perhaps the sedative will combine with it to cause even more unwanted side-effects.

Albie arrives and sees Connie's spirit being tortured by the invisible claw of some evil warlock. He casts out this malign influence and Connie resumes normal, if laboured sleep. Albie manages to catch the scent of the warlock, and leaving Connie with the medic, he and Thomas grab a cab and pursue this magical trail to a house at No. 23, Mirkwood Road.

Session 2

Facebook party arrives at Tom's, by absent courtesy of Philip Arch (of Underground Railroad fame), the Bristol Kid. While Havers prepares the boiling oil, Connie befriends the Facebookian dealer, who points her at Jordan, school-mate of Philip. With a wag of her tail, Connie arranges all the male-folk (Jordan too) into marching order and away to pay Phil a visit.

Apperantly Philip was living with this older woman called Cynthia, who is a brave new type of Othersidian (or at least brave new realization of one into our reality), and who offers tea. Jordan is the only one who fails to heed Albie's excellent mime performance and actually drinks it.

While Havers keeps Cynthia busy with her porcelain doll collection, Albie pokes around with his usual air of supremacy and takes Connie to Phillip's room, where they find a locked chest. Al fonzies the lock with his staff and reveals cleanly separated body parts. Phillip parts, to be exact. Connie's scream brings everyone into the room, Jordan faints (maybe it's the tea), and Cynthia uses the distraction to try and slip out of the room unnoticed. Keen of eye as always, Thomas spots her and hurls one of Phillip's arms to block the door, but Cyntia is faster and manages to shut the door. The arm hits the door, and something in the chest goes OUCH.
