Actually, with the lux-dart crossbow, I'd say he's at least moderately well-armed.

Plus, his sword seems to come to him when he needs it most - I'm thinking that, secured at the Artificer's School or not, it may be making an appearance shortly...

Good question, since we know she and Tuck are approximately the same age...recall the swimmin' hole incident that gave Tuck his intense dislike for reporters.

Okay, the flaky Wiccan I was referring to is Beltane:

I don't know... After about a quarter of a century working in the broadcast TV biz, it's all just background noise that doesn't register any more - until it goes away or is replaced by "Shhhhhhhhhhhh"!

Semi non-corporeal? Isn't that something like a third lieutenant? :roll: (groan) Non-corporeal is like a ghost or phantasm. I use the term "semi" because they can be completely solid and interact with everything around them or they can dematerialize and pass thru solid objects etc. at will. Ghosts ...

Actually, I'm not sure patching up the hole is the smartest thing to do - I'd set some sort of trap to see if I could catch (or at least see) whatever was coming up. Also, how did the hole get there in the first place? What made it, and who patched it? If Squidge had to break the patch to get throug...

Same here - I get the three pages with no sign of Hortense.

Since the auction was only started today, I find it very hard to believe that the picture has already been sold (unless someone made an offer Ralph couldn't refuse...)

One more point to consider - the pool table was owned by a BEAR. I think the pool table was already in the manor or was in the museum as memorabilia from some movie, "The Hustler" maybe. Pool tables, especially slate base ones are pretty expensive and Ben didn't have that much to spare. Plus, I can...
