[ Wrathion reporting in with another scheme, this time one he needs assistance with. ]
Myself, Licyn and Moran were among those who assisted the Lady Arabella to safety during the summit. She discarded a key along the way that her assistant was attempting to give her, claiming it wasn't hers. On inspection this key is old, greasy, and has the phrase 'wake up' engraved into it. A meaningful message, I assume, like the one delivered to her previously with flowers. The key itself appears to be from the Ubiq factory in Eidris, which I have managed to gain myself an invite to tour after some trouble. I have a suspicion the key is for a winding mechanism, perhaps a clock given the engraved phrase. Regardless, it doesn't fit the style of a door or window key.
Licyn and the Doctor managed to track the grease on the key to the Mouse House. We have an idea of where it might have been, now we need to learn exactly what the key is for.
If you have the time, a useful role involving factories, gears, winding mechanisms and the like, and would care to join me on such a tour do let me know. I suspect this will help us piece together the bigger picture of what is happening here. Someone attempted to give Arabella this key for a reason, and understanding what it is for will help unlock why.
[ ooc: some info is available on things they might find already, but we can always ask more! ]

The individual in question was one of the Sanctuary's attendants -- at the time, we were evacuating Arabella so didn't linger to ask further questions. They simply seemed to be bundling all her belongings at her, and the key was among them. You're welcome to return to the Sanctuary and see if they might have more to offer.

I see. I will attempt to find them, then.
