“Well…” Berry considered Roy’s question for a moment. “I would very much like to bring everyone back as soon as possible; safety in numbers and means that the Grit can’t use the soul gems.”

Berry breathed. Fear was pooling in her stomach, coiling like a snake around her in the darkness. She gripped the bridge of her nose and then looked up at Roy.

“Currently I feel the best course of action is to leave everyone here as they are so at least we know that they’re safe. Meanwhile, Roy if I may ask that you go hunt for whoever or whatever our intruder is.”
A number of prods and presses brought the map to focus in on the extra dot.

“It’s somewhere down one of the corridors…I think.” Again the completeness of the map she held left a number of rooms and hallways incomplete or even non-existent, so she simply pointed vaguely to the Ballrooms main doorway. “If we can secure the parameter, as they say, we can then gain a foothold and ‘drive off those filthy scallywags’ as Sargent Barnsley is fond of saying.” She chuckled hesitantly.
Berry was a big fan of radio dramas.

“With that said I suppose the rest of us had better stick together. Don’t suppose anyone saw which way Vincent ran off to?” Berry was already fiddling with the map as she asked. “Goodness I do hope he’s okay…the other dot is getting very close to…him.” Berry’s voice dropped off into a petrified silence.

“Good heavens it’s right on top of him!”
