Mulberry decides to stay upstairs.
She scurries up the hole leading to Antoine’s room with some effort. Good to know that works!
She frowns, and looks at the body strapped to the bed. It doesn’t seem to have changed at all. She still doesn’t want to touch it though.

Taking her candle she creeps slowly towards his apartment, shivering in fear. She stops and ducks low as the thumping gets louder.
She pokes her head out and looks at the room where Hard Tack’s body is. Luckily, the sofa is-
More loud thumping, and Mulberry jumps as she is quite close to it.
