Koldun Hitch followed after his accomplices as they left the den in which they had just recently met. There mission was to track down an artifact that Hitch had found, a spider that had turned into a mirrored figurine. Just recently it had been stolen from him, and he intended to track it and the one responsible down. "Alright then, fellow investigators, where to first?"
Nobby asks the pragmatic question.
"Kin ya take us t' d' spot where ya grabbed it from t' Spider? Meybe we can find traces of...sumpin?"

"It was the spider itself I grabbed, Knobby." Says Hitch, walking next to Knobby."I reached into this very mirror when it was halfway through, had those visions and when I pulled my hand out, the spider turned into the figurine."

"Well, I've tried reaching my hand through it several times, but every time the surface remained solid, and It's only been cracked since yesterday. No I haven't really had the time to properly examine it." He says scratching his head and slightly frowning

"Sounds like a trip to the university then. I and Koldun have some friends there that could help. Though the Mahogany Hall is another possibility, though I'm not trusting of my alliances there. But it would be nice to see the princess again. . ." Evensong gives the hulking figure at her side a sharp look.
"If we are going to the hall, it will probably be best if Knobby guides," Evensong firmly adds.
OOC: Choose the shroud for hopes of finding something real behind the illusions but no luck. Might switch to the glass if it ever updates. Also, it's been years, so I actually don't remember too much of the Illusion wars.

"I think the university would be our best option. Surely they have the information on mirrors that we need to continue our investigation. There is one small problem, though. I'm not entirely welcome there anymore." He says, looking embarrassed.

"Well, I'm allowed back in - though not on the best of terms - but it should be sufficient for the task at hand." Dirae Erinyes starts off towards the university.
"Wait," Evensong interject. "Just how unwelcome are you? Are you going to need a new mask?"

Follows behind him "I am also somewhat allowed in, but not completely welcome. I cannot teach there, for example, but am still allowed to use some of their resources."

"I need not a different mask, for I am most likely unrecognizable to the University. These masks are issued to all watchers, aren't they?"he says donning his mask once more.

“Never been a Watcher. I’m currently a Correspondent. Nice gig as long as you don’t accidentally eat too much ink.” Dirae Erinyes weaves their way through the busy streets of London and to the gates of The University. The attitude from the faculty is notably icy when they aren’t dodging students with questions or overeager cricket players. Dirae Erinyes heads straight to the Benthic side of the campus, into one of the more unkempt halls, up several flights of stairs and ending in a drafty hallway in front of large mirror in place of an office door. They pause before knocking.
“Are you two familiar with Professor Zant?”

"Parallel Geography, Locations of the Parabola and their Corresponding London Locations is his most famous work. You would remember it, all the words were backward so you had to use a mirror to read it."

"Wasn't he the one who went Jack on people's reflection for awhile? Don't think he killed anyway, but sure gave a lot of people a scare and broke a lot of mirrors."

“Probably be wise to consult him in order to figure out what Professor Zant is talking about.” Evensong knocks on the door in a complicated spatial and aural pattern. She jumps back as the mirror opens, showing a room covered in mirrors. A spider council sits in the professor’s chair – but a closer inspection of its immobile legs and unseeing eyes is that it is just stuffed.
“A gift from Mr. Inch” a voice says from somewhere in the room. They must be somewhere close – the room must be small no matter who many mirrors are up – but currently no reflection gives him away.
“Welcome fellow scholars and your friend? Have we met before?”
Occ: At first I wanted him to speak in reverse like his paper, but I figured that might cause the rest of you no end of grief.

"Who knows who we have met before we inhabited these animated sculptures of flesh known as bodies? Perhaps we resided in the same realm, or inhabited the same object. That spider, for example, is just like the one I slew for Mr.Inch. Maybe it's the one, maybe someone else entirely. Our world is full of the unknown, and mine and your professions is to illuminate them, to pull back the veil of conspiracy, to see the unseen, to be the unbelievable. Our job is to explore the neath and all it's wonderful secrets." he proclaims with great gusto, shaking the Professor's hand heartily.
