OOC: William figures that the Penhew Foundation is closer than the New Scotland Yard from where you are now.

 

[Gomez]

OOC: I am going to push things along.


The Penhew Foundation

The Penhew Foundation is in central London, at a Bloomsbury address north of Oxford Street and west of the British Museum, roughly between Regents Park and the Thames. It is a High Victorian building, of fewer stories and greater ceiling height than the buildings to either side, and of an altogether grander scale and elegance of detail. It is two stories tall and a doorman opens the front door for you as you enter. A burly man in is late twenties sits at a desk in an opulent foyer. A hallway extends behind him and there is a stairway going up to the left. Men's and Ladies lavatory and two offices can be seen fronting the foyer. There is also two opening to the right and left of the front door that lead to what appears to open studies with several desks with men studying what look to be Egyptian antiques.

 

[Ashy]

Charles' eyebrows arch as he spies the antiques and he moves over to look at them as well, admiring their craftmanship and beauty. He nods kindly to those present, but does not speak unless spoken to...

 

[Gomez]

The man at the desk speaks up as Charles starts to walk into one of the studies. "Excuse me sir. Do you have an appointment?" He looks at the rest of the group. "Can I help you?"

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

"No appointment I'm afraid. We came to search for some information about your Foundation. A friend of ours was investigating something for a book and the Penhew Foundation came up. He was researching the Carlyle expedition, do you know anything abou that?" Miriam asks politely.

 

[Gomez]

"Of coarse I do. Sir. Aubrey Penhew whose Foundation this is died while on the Carlyle Expedition. A writer you say? Would his name be Jackson Elias?" says the man. He stands and says. "Excuse my manners. My name is John Bradford. I am the assistant secretary to Mr. Edward Gavigan, administrator of the Penhew Foundation."

 

[Isida Kep'Tukari]

"Yes, he would indeed be Jackson. I am pleased to meet you Mr. Bradford. My name is Miriam LeGou. My friends are William Llewellyn-Phelps, Father Sean O'Malley, Jack Chance, Charles Whitford, and Jibril Koresh," she says, introducing each in turn.

 

[Maerdwyn]

Jibril nods to the man with a smile, content to let Miriam do the talking for now, and taking in the surroundings.


ooc: I assume the Egyptian items are from Ancient Egypt, rather than from the Islamic period or Modern times, is that right?

OOC: Yes, they appear to be Ancient Egyptian peices.

Father O'Malley also nods at his introduction. he too is happy to let Miriam speak for the group at the moment.
