[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 4614518, member: 21938"] [sblock=OOC] For Edmond's Orphanage, I can picture a [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HardWorkMontage]Hard Work Montage[/url]. ;) Now all we need is a suitable piece of music... [/sblock] [sblock=Ambrus] Dj'hân finds that Zellara's house is in a state of disrepair and neglect compared to the first time that they visited. Everything is pretty much as it was, but older, tattier and covered in dust. It is a terraced cottage - a front parlour, a kitchen and larder in the back, a small bit of yard leading to a shared toilet block and two small bedrooms upstairs. He finds nothing of value or interest, but feels a strange sense of sadness that seems to come from outside of him. You can perform a Harrow reading if you like - this one won't give you any Harrow points, but it might provide further cryptic clues.

It is said to be distilled from the venom of an exotic creature from Mwangi called a Dream Spider. Taken orally, shiver induces a coma where the user experiences strange and exotic dreams, often accompanied by uncontrolled shivering of the neglected body. It is highly addictive, but sometimes used by artists as a source of inspiration. It is also used by those who prefer to escape into dreams than face their own reality.
