Invitation	Description
10	The Grave is as you remembered: empty and foreboding. The sense of a weight on the world, crushing matter, substance, truth into a […] simulacra of itself. As though something had entered, and in so doing, made the world greyer, smaller, lesser.
15	Sight cannot be relied upon, nor any other sense. As in the Gullet, clocks are a treason [...]. The only sense that cannot be fooled is touch, and so you reach out — As you do so, you hear a sob. Tatterdemalion, rooted [...], refusing to move an inch further.
20	You feel the heat of the sigils before you. The flicker of them behind your eyes [...]. The meaning shifts, dances. A lock in two parts. Within and without, reverse to make the key. You feel your eyebrows singe [...] And then Tatterdemalion gasps. Revelation?
