Seeking escape from a rainstorm that includes the occasional fish, the trio seek shelter at a nearby dilapidated castle. The door is answered by a patchwork creature that seems equal parts Skeek and Skreek, who lets them into a hall set up like a bizarre museum and library.
The mistress of the castle arrives, bringing bathrobes, and introduces herself as Dr. Floribunda Pike. Arkold retires early, while Tulani and Alptraum talk with the doctor about Sylvanian history and learn a few things about the Necromancer Wars and the Countess Draco.
Tulani retires to her own room with some choice reading material, leaving Alptraum and the doctor to flirt… until Igor spoils the mood.
