Hotel lobby, morning
Cole had checked into the hotel that Calum had shown him. He'd asked at the front desk about Phoebe, but the person on duty had refused to give out information about guests and would not confirm or deny if she was a resident there.
So he'd gone to explore this "Haruvatat" -- Aurvatt? Phoebe had to be here somewhere, why else would he have been drawn to this place? Strangely enough, whenever he reached what seemed to be the borders of the village, he would suddenly find himself back in the center of town. Even shimmering couldn't get him past the boundaries of Haruvatat. Not that he wanted to leave yet, but he found this somewhat alarming.
When he returned to the hotel that evening, he found a copy of the newspaper. Phoebe Halliwall, co-editor. To say his heart leapt would be cliche, but so very true. She was here. And he would find her.
Now he waited in the lobby of the hotel, figuring that was a good of place as any to find her.
