Shakhmaty turned to Ebony, trembling a little. "The blocks may be gone," she said, "but they were only the first clue. Undoubtedly, there are others lying around this house. Let's see what else we can find." Her new companion nodd...  [Read More]

"I think that Henrietta led Higz and Corbin down to the cellar," Shakhmaty said meekly, "where Mister Black's body can keep." She took a small sip of her water. Wishing that she had some wine at the moment, she sighed heavily. M...  [Read More]

Shakhmaty raised a curious eyebrow. "I certainly hope you're feeling better soon," she told Corbin with genuine sympathy. "I'm no doctor, but perhaps you have a bit of narcolepsy as well? I've heard that some people in Highcliff have b...  [Read More]
