is actually affixed shorter on the door and he
goes, “Well come in.”
LIAM: Yes please, you’re open for business I take
it.
MATT: “Always open, come on in.”
LIAM: All right.
MATT: Turns around and musters his way inside. As
soon as you step in the door and look around, this
place looks like an episode of Hoarders. It is
just floor-to-ceiling, wall-to-wall, stacks of
anything and everything: knick-knacks, small
stuffed animals, toys, books, glasses, and
goblets. It is the biggest, crammed flea-market
into a small shed-like space you’ve seen.
SAM: I start unscrewing my flask.
(laughing)
LIAM: Frumpkin climbs back up onto Nott’s shoulder
and nestles in.
MATT: (meowing)
LIAM: I am scouting the city for books, I am
starved for books.
MATT: “Well we’ve got books here.”
LIAM: Yes sir, I’m sorry what is your name?
MATT: “Oglen. Oglen Hornsblower.”
LIAM: Oglen Hornsblower.
MATT: “And welcome to my collection. You want to
buy something, let me know.”
LIAM: Well I see you sell a great many things in
here, books included. This is just things you’ve
collected throughout your lifetime?
MATT: “Right. Boughten, traded for, found.”
LIAM: I don’t know what you just said, but I am
interested in books. Particularly in the arcane
realm, but any kind of book. Do you have anything
that you just outright know is out of the
ordinary?
MATT: “I’m sure we’ve got a few. Look around! See
what you find. It’s half the fun, half the
"journey.”
LIAM: All right, friend, let’s– It’s like
Winter’s Crest morning for me and I’m scanning the
shelves.
MATT: Make an investigation check.
SAM: Can you give me something to look for? To
distract me and give me a mission to go on,
please?
LIAM: Yes. You want to find some sort of tool that
helps you do what you do best.
SAM: All right.
LIAM: Investigation check, that is a 21.
MATT: 21?
SAM: I rolled a 21 investigation check.
MATT: All right.
SAM: I’m just looking for baubles to steal.
(laughter)
MATT: All right. In thumbing through, there are
plenty of books that, within a first glance,
“This is not of interest to me.” You have to move things
out of the way and push things aside.
