[QUOTE="talien, post: 4283576, member: 3285"] [b]Baumann's Prize: Part 1b – Rudolph’s Exotic Book Shoppe[/b] Sebastian and Beldin entered a dimly lit shop with bookcases lining the walls. Carpet completely covered the floor and a floor-to-ceiling curtain concealed the wall opposite the door. An elderly man sat hunched over a desk in front of the curtained wall. A candelabrum burned in front of him, shining light on the book he was reading. The man looked over the rim of his glasses as Sebastian as he entered. “Hello there.” He motioned to the bookcases. “Please look around and see if there is anything you like. If you need any help just ask.” He returned to reading his book. Sebastian swallowed and stepped up to the desk. “I’d like to see your exotic book reading room, please.” The man motioned behind the curtained back wall to a door at the far end of a passage. “The password is: Drac.” Sebastian nodded and moved towards the curtain. “Nobody mentioned anything about another password,” muttered Beldin from behind his scarf. Sebastian shushed him as he pushed the curtain aside. It led to a dark passage that culminated in a large door. Steeling himself, the dark-kin made his way to the door. A slot abruptly slid open. A pair of squinting eyes greeted him. “What’s the password?” asked someone in a gruff voice. “Drac,” said Sebastian. He waited. Nothing happened. Beldin slowly started to reach for the axe on his back… Then the door creaked open. Beldin stepped inside and out of sight. “I’m looking for ghoul juice,” said Sebastian, stalling. “Do you know where I can get some?” The man, his features concealed by shadow, muttered something about dark-kin. “Not here,” he hissed back. “Inside.” Something tugged on Sebastian’s cloak. It was just enough to let him know that Kham had just whisked past him. The guard didn’t seem to notice. They continued down the corridor to another door. Beldin stood in front of it, unsure of what to do next. “Now what?” Sebastian took another deep breath. “Try to act natural.” Then he opened the door. [/QUOTE]
