Where is it that these gypsy dwell? And that horrid beast, that crocodile, is it still with them? It is up the utmost importance I know.

A crocodile?

[handnorhook]

Aye, have you seen one lurking about?

[ladycecaelia]

Can't say I have, Hook. Though...no, no. It couldn't have been...

[handnorhook]

Couldn't have been what? What is it?

[ladycecaelia]

Well, it's probably nothing, but when I arrived, I was in the water outside the city. Something rather large was swimming around, but...surely it couldn't have been a crocodile. Why would one be here at all?

[handnorhook]

... You wouldn't have happened to get good look at it by any chance, did you?

[ladycecaelia]

It was moving so quickly in the murky water that I didn't get the chance to. Ah, but if you stay away from the water, you should be fine. Of course, we are surrounded by it...

[handnorhook]

You're right... He could be anywhere! He might even- no. No! It’s impossible… Impossible! He couldn’t possibly get through the thorns.

[ladycecaelia]

Unless he was able to get through using some sort of waterway or pipe...you better ask the Mistress if she's seen him.

[handnorhook]

That's absolutely absurd! How would he... Where would he come out? The washroom is in the same hallway as her office. I don't believe it! I don't believe a word of it!
