In the meantime, I do believe I heard one request more than any other in the end, so, Madame Chartreuse, as they call you, I believe this is yours!

From his own black, physically impossible hole, the professor pulls forth a few wrinkled, water-stained papers, messily printed and barely stapled together.
YOU:

The Professor disappears into his book, which in turn collapses and vanishes with an audible "POP."

The Professor works in mysterious ways, but we can surmise that someone or something out there wanted to relay information to you. I suggest you take a look at it, it could be very important!

Yeah, but...it doesn't end well...it almost feels like a threat.

STAPH:
It needn't be a threat...perhaps they simply want to warn you? Or, perhaps, that story simply isn't complete.
