You pocket the scrolls and head off…
following the line of the letters. You walk for what feels like hours, but just as you start to loose hope, you see a small speck off in the distance. It isn’t shaped like a person, rather a cube. You wonder if it is a letter than has fallen from the sky, perhaps the side of an E, but as you approach it you start to hear noise, voices? music? You see windows, and then a door, and it dawns on you that this is not a letter, but a building.
You wrap your hand around the doorknob, hesitating to open it, however after hearing a loud boom of laughter from inside, you feel encouraged, and enter. (something about it being unknown?)
You are first hit by the noise. There are about 50 people in the large room, laughing, having a merry time, singing along to the live musics that the band is playing. They’re all sitting (or standing) at large tables like it’s some sort of diner. You walk around the edge of the scene surveying it, feet treading on the well worn carpet. You notices on the far end of the room there is a raised platform with a five person band on it. The patrons are pointing asking for song requests, dancing, some just drawn into their own conversations.
(if emphasis olde friends reconnecting can have link to guild project here?)
You find one of the few empty tables at the back and sit down. No one else here seems concerned and for a moment it’s hard for you to even tell that this is a restaurant on the corner of the street (at your hometown). You are sitting next to another group singing next to you.
