Entering the caves brought an instinctual shiver to Vivian's spine. Even though she had put that part of her life behind her, there was always some lingering trace of the Dollmaster's magic that seemed to make itself felt. That was why she usually avoided places like this, but now they had no choice in the matter. She could live with her own ill feelings, especially if it meant actually accomplishing anything of value.

Of course, a groan escaped as she drew near to find the gates and the guards standing there. Right, they'd made this some kind of tourist hunt for people interested in their group. Or a shrine for the Dollmaster, depending on your perspective. 

There was just one problem, which she observed as a couple wasn't allowed to enter. They were going to have to do something about those security guards if they wanted to get inside. Fortunately she had just the idea as to how they could manage that. "Follow my lead," she told Carrie before approaching the guards. Time to swindle their way inside.

"Excuse me," she said with a happy smile, acting like the kind of person she decidedly wasn't. More like Courtney really. "I was here earlier, and I think I left something inside. Can I duck back in to get it? It'll be real quick, I promise."
