When Thorn and Prometheus reached the bottom of the stairs, Jeremiah was just finishing explaining his findings to Gabriel.
"I was just telling Gabriel here that, although the pages of sheet music you see over on the piano, yonder, have not been subject to any spells, they have been...ahh...subjected to some supernatural force. I'm afraid it's beyond my arts to say just what, but I'm now quite certain that the pages are both highly important and related to our search. Would you like to have a go at them?"
He set his glasses back on the bridge of his nose with his thumb and forefinger, then gave a small bowed gesture of welcome, like a waiter showing his patrons to their table.
