[Terry's found the library and he's spent a while thumbing through some of the more recently used texts. He hasn't found much though.

The 1913 Encyclopedia Britannica's B volume is spread open on the table, alongside a few other tomes.]

Anyone ever heard of a guy called Temben?

[Locked to Bruce]We need to talk, there's something going on. ( Read more... )

Hard to miss.

I'm in the library.

On my way.

There's a library?

It wasn't here before.

In the Temple, you can't miss it.

[Instead of answering, Bruce pockets his comm and decides to see this for himself. He strolls into the library and makes his way over to Terry the minute he spots him.]

This place is massive.

Seriously retro though.

[Right on cue Terry sneezes, then grimaces.]

I haven't looked through paper books since history class.

[Bruce smiles a bit.]

Paper books are good for you.

Not for my allergies.

[Tugging a handkerchief from his pocket, Terry blows his nose.]

[Bruce is investigating the books on the shelf. He pulls one down and opens it up and there's a...fork and spoon set tied off with a red ribbon.]

...I'm thinking this isn't an ordinary library.

You think?

[Terry waves the handkerchief, then gestures to the small pile of random objects he's collected so far.

But then he falls somber and rests his hands on the table.]

Dick's gone.

[The book snaps shut almost immediately and Bruce looks at Terry with a serious expression.]

Gone? What do you mean gone?

I can't contact him on the communicator and his pod's empty.

[Terry glances aside at Bruce. He's worried.]

Other people have disappeared too.

[Bruce frowns. He's starting to feel like a failure.]

They were probably sent home.

[He hopes.]

You really think that?

[Terry has no idea what to think.]

Maybe there's more monsters. Like that thing in the fog.

[He stands up straighter.]

I'm gonna go do some snooping around, see what I can find out.

[Well he doesn't want to think that something has happened to them.]

I don't think it was monsters. Besides, death doesn't seem to be permanent here.

[Max is the unspoken example.]

Are you looking for a partner?

[Death isn't what Terry's worried about.

He almost responds in the negative, but ... well. He's not coming up with much by himself. Maybe some assistance would be good.]

I wouldn't say no.

Actually, I have an idea. It might not pan out, but it's worth a shot.
