Robinson.  He walks over and leafs through the book that lies open, finding an underlined passage:There still survives in some parts of England traditions of a spirit or faery called Dulcarnon, who bears a resemblance to the Roman Silvanus, or Pan.  In olden times, the Dulcarnon was venerated by the Druids, who knew him as Cernunnos; it is said now that he sleeps under Silbury Hill, where he was banished by the wizard Merlin.  It is said that he will one day return... "Silbury Hill?" he asks of no one in particular.  "Isn't that near Avebury?"Miller also strolls into the room, scanning the walls, taking note of a cardboard box on one of the bookcases.  He brings it to the table and finds a white label on the top reading 'John McCarthy, Chandler, 26 Dorset Street, Spitalfields'.  Robinson looks at the label, a look of recognition on his face.All four take note of an old, stale, rotten odor.  It seems to be emanating from the fireplace.  I went ahead and rolled Trevor's Spot check.</blockquote>
