[QUOTE="mhd, post: 3567593, member: 16805"] Seeing you leave the room, a young woman is running to catch you. Her bare feet artfully avoid the broken glass and puddles whose origin should better be left unknown. She intercepts you, right before you exit through one of the "doors", quickly straightens her well-worn dress and pulls her long auburn hair to one side. [COLOR=PaleTurquoise]"Phewey, eager to leave, right? Well, skipouts, first I got ta ask all of you a few details for the List!"[/COLOR] (She points at a piece of parchment where almost every inch of surface has been used for short notes in a neat, but cramped hand.
