Having recovered from their bouts of filth fever after a week of bed rest, Euwyn and Marty met to discuss their next move only to find they were being spied upon by an agent of Marshal Shelby Oborne, a cavalier aspirant named simply Justus. They called him out and together the trio set out to check on Lex’s condition. Finding he had not recovered, they followed Tiaco, who pointed out some lingering magically stained places within city walls. The forgotten mage’s tower and a haunted theater. At the theater, they encountered a pair of young women (Lumi and Mjelde) awaiting a liaison. When the gang showed up and a fight began to brew, the ghost presented herself and cleared the hall of all save Lumi, Marty and Roman (the gang leader). Roman later left of his own accord, but Marty and Lumi stayed until the ghost dissipated. At which point, Lumi ran home and the boys returned to the library to investigate the theater.
The Busby Theater has lain abandoned for 25 years since it closed its doors due to poor attendance and falling revenues, many claiming it’s simply too large for the city anymore. Since then, its only purported occupant was an old, mad woman thought to perhaps have been one of the former acting troupe, but no reports of her “chasing off vandals and trespassers with a stage sword” have been made in at lest 7 years.
