Episode 5 - The Record

Vera Osskind of the Hopetown Gazette came up Carbowee Mountain to cover an auction. Wealthy eccentrics, a hotel nobody will discuss on the record, a society piece with a little blood in the margins. She has sources in three kingdoms, an invitation she doesn’t remember earning, and a notebook that has never once lied to her. Then the tramway stops in the worst storm the cable has ever seen. A detective, a vizier, and a woman in emerald satin wake up arguing. An old surgeon lays out his instruments and says nothing at all. And Vera does what she always does. She writes it down. The trouble with the Mors Delectamenti Hotel is that it reads over your shoulder. And sooner or later, it starts writing back.
