[b]Skills:[/b] N/A [hr][/center]	Nora was a bit distracted, focusing so much on the mysterious things going on that Lauren asking her about getting a drink later threw her a bit for a loop. She couldn't quite remember what plans they had already agreed to - they had anticipated reconvening the Fellowship at some point, she was fairly certain, but she gave her friend a slight smile. Perhaps a drink would be a good change of pace, a way to reset her mind and allow her to approach things from a new angle. [color=00ccff]"I would like that - a drink might be what I need in order to take a step back and see the pattern,"[/color] she told her friend quietly. It wasn't that she was hiding anything of course, just that she had a quiet presence. 

	Gene rolled her eyes slightly, as Lord Major made more comments about [i]you Americans[/i]. The entire American-British rivalry was a bit pointless - not that she didn't firmly place her on the side of her fellow Americans of course. The British just couldn't compete! Of course, the more she concentrated on that tugging sensation in her stomach, the more confusing it became. She then looked at Mahendra, hearing him scold her. That was cute. [color=#9370DB]"You really do not want to make me angry, hun,"[/color] she told him, clicking her tongue slightly. [color=#9370DB]"But it's cute that you think you can scold me."[/color]

	Belladonna rubbing her stomach - Gene took that as a sign. She'd have to speak to her later when the others weren't around, but they seemed to be a largely unobservant lot. She couldn't help but still be excited though as they continued to walk along, the lighting getting lower and the sense of adventure and excitement increasing. Part of her wanted Mahendra to attempt to scold her again. She could use another bit of a laugh, especially since the Lord Major had stopped making jokes about the pitfalls of being old. 

	Nora then stepped forward, her earlier inclinations being supported by this development - the carvings resembled the ones they had seen at the museum. [color=00ccff]"If someone could produce a light, I would like to copy these down,"[/color] Nora asked. It was getting hard to see down here. She pulled her leather bound diary and went to a fresh page, hoping to sketch these symbols and then see if she could do any quick deciphering of them. She did not speak or write this language fluently, but had some practice in deciphering them as long as she had her notes as a guide. Meanwhile, Gene was glancing around the area. Her gut was telling her that this wouldn't be the dead end it appeared to be. Maybe Lady Kingston would be able to shed some light on what the hieroglyphics meant and that would give them something more to go off of.
