The city is old, he can feel that... and there some basic mystical lines and fields deep down in the city. Nothing odd, just something one would expect from such an old place where scholars, etc have been for so many years.Lia wanders around a bit, getting a few strange stares from some of the locals. She notes that most women are wearing a lot of clothing, including headscarves, etc. The city is pretty dusty, and the people fairly poor, but they don't seem to really realize it. Andy starts talking with some street vendors and people at the various markets, a few of whom speak English (most speak French or Arabic or a local dialects) and he does hear the talk is a bit about the strange man who came in from the desert and that it might be some kind of sign... of something good or bad they are not sure. He also learns that the Tuareg tribesmen who found that man are still camped just outside of town and that most people are avoiding them...just in case.Back at the table, Dr. Clay says to Ace "Well now, I have seen some strange stuff here and there, but… well I always thought that there had to be some other explanation… now I am not so sure…" Dr. Clay also just makes some small talk about his work, how he got interested in restoration and history. [OK so just wondering where does the party wish to go next? Just want to move things along <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" />]</blockquote>
