The note was written in a hurry, by someone who didn't exactly have time to create full sentences, apparently.

"Careful: beasts"
There was a hastily scrawled thing next to it. Perhaps it represented a door, but it was impossible to be sure.

[Eviledd1984]

"HELLO MEATNEW APE," the note began, it was in an oddly specific font... On what looked to be the same kind of paper he brought with him... In fact, the ink ribbon on his typewriter was a little dry.

"YOUR PERPRESENCE IS DDEMANDED BY CAERBOG. YOU BLMUST TRANSCEND FURTHER. HEAD CHEWTO THE NORTH STATUE IN FRONT OF THE HOTELL. THERE YOUN WILL FIND THE STATUE OF MCAERBOG IN PLACE OF THE OLD BLASPHEMOUS ONE.BURNGET OUT OF BURN THE ROOM BEFORE THE SCRATCHY HERETICMAN GETS IN. CAERBOG EXPECTSANTICIPATES YOUR ARRRIVAL ONLY IN DUE TIME. IF YOU CANNOT GET TO THE STATUE DO NOT BE AFRAID. CAERBOG WILL FIND YOU NEW APE. CAERBOG ALWAYS FINDS YOU."

It ended with a splotch. Someone with thin fingers must have tried to change the ink ribbon and gave up shortly afterward. At least whoever did this wasn't rude enough to use your wite-out without permission too.

Jonathan thought to himself who ever wrote this must be either crazy or thinking that people would be stupid enough to follow some crazies note.Placing the note on the bed beside the typewriter he took a seat on top of the bed,Taking the note in his hand once more looking over the note to see if their was anything else irregular that could give him clues on who could write it.

He took another swig of the whiskey bottle to try to clear his mind of the noises.

@Sombrero

"Beasts?"

Elise was puzzled. Beasts? What beasts? If the note meant the forest and its probable abundance of wildlife then yes, she'd be careful. But she decided to head downstairs to ask the front desk clerk anyway.

She got up, pulled on her sweater and exited her room, making the long walk back downstairs towards the front desk. Once she was there, she showed the clerk lady the note and pointed out the two words at the bottom.

"Excuse me, but this note was in my room? There's like words at the bottom her, someone wrote, um, "Careful beasts"? What's that about?"

@Eviledd1984

The terrible scratching noise persists. As he drinks, he may start to notice that the walls are looking quite gray and ashy around the edges... There are even ashy footprints on the floor, leading from his desk, to the balcony, and then... off...?

Something is very wrong with that air in the middle of the room, and the scratching is now accompanied by what sounds like... Tearing...

@DJAtomika

"That just looks like the schedule..." the clerk said, adjusting her glasses and struggling to see, "Except the writing... But it looks oddly familiar..."

She leaned her chin on her hand as she thought for a good few seconds. "One of the cleaners might've done that as a joke... Or completely seriously, we still have a lot of crows around here. Don't worry, they aren't mean or anything, but some employees might have ticked them off. I think they remember faces?"

@Sombrero
Jonathan couldn't take it anymore and left the room but not before taking a quick swig of the whiskey,He needed some air to try to clear his fucked up head.Closing the door behind him making his way down the stairs and into the lobby to then head outside to smoke his cigarettes.

This place gave him the creeps and for some reason he felt like he was being watched and it was not the cocaine fucking with his head.

@Eviledd1984
He opened the door to find that the place was horribly burnt. Every surface was black with ash, parts were still glowing and smoking zealously.

A single scorched note lay on the railing of the balcony:

"CAERBOG WAITS WITH PATIENCE. THE THINGS WITH TEETH DO NOT."

He could hear stomping feet on the balcony upstairs, and bending under something that must be absolutely no smaller than a gorilla. Ash and dust fall from the travelling indent below where the creature must be lurking.

@Sombrero

Jonathan right away backing into the door behind him quickly getting inside dropping his cigarette on the ground."God damn it..i wonder if Juan put LSD in the coke..." He thought to himself leaving outside and heading back into the lobby."Hi you...did you know who sent this note?Also their is someone on the second floor stomping around throwing ash around" He said to the women at the front desk limping and resting on his cane.

@Eviledd1984

He would find that the scratching is gone when he enters the room again, and the hotel is completely normal, as opposed to entirely scorched, when he enters the lobby. The woman looks at the note incredulously, surprised and perhaps mildly confused by its content.

"No..." she said, slowly, "I don't think anyone here uses a typewriter... What's a Caerbog?"

@Eviledd1984@Sombrero

"You too?"

Elise saw the cowboy hat man from earlier descend into the lobby, he too holding a note. She turned to face him proper as she smiled at him.

"I've got a weird note too...this kind lady here told me it might be one of the cleaners, but I'm not so sure..."

She shyly stuck out her hand for him to shake.

"Name's Elise. Nice to meet cha."

"Jonathan..." The young man said ignoring the two before limping over to the woman clerk,"You don't know who is going this?" He said the woman clerk before looking around outside thinking he saw a pair of eyes looking at him staring into his soul.

@Eviledd1984

"Nope... I don't know who's leaving the notes." the clerk said, getting back to her paperwork.

The eyes behind him disappeared once they reached the corner of his eye. Briefly, he may have seen a figure of sorts... Or perhaps not?... Either way, there was a piece of paper attached to the door.

@Sombrero

"What the hell...?"

Ignoring her being snubbed by the obviously-on-something cowboy, she approached the door and pulled the little note off of it. Elise walked back to the cowboy man, reading the note as she walked.

@DJAtomika

"What does the note say?" Jonathan said feeling a bit annoyed since he wanted to hold onto the paper,"Fuck why the fuck do i see eyeballs watching me" He said to himself looking back at the outside wondering what the hell is going on.Limping over towards the cowgirl following close behind her to read the note hopefully.

@DJAtomika @Eviledd1984

It appears to be an envelope, leaned on the push-bar and the glass of the door. Upon opening it, they would both find (unless Elise moved to hide it from Jonathan) that it was a much more relaxed form of the messy writing from Elise's first note.

Notes that appear for no reason are rarely trustworthy. Unless you're into that kinda thing.

Futzing with his watch, Nicholas patiently leaves the limo, leaving a tip for the driver inside. It's a weird situation, but he definitely needs a vacation. It's been far too long.

He heads on into the Golden Hotel, and to the front desk, noticing the two huddled toghether. Already weird.

"I was given this invitation, Nicholas Ivanovich. I assume my room has been prepared?" He asks the clerk.

The woman taps away quickly at her computer, and scans the result briefly before responding.

"Yessir!" The clerk says, cheerfully. "Room 700. It's on the second floor, southeast side of the little central bit here. Your balcony goes out over the courtyard."

She hands Nicholas what feels like a solid brass card, a shining black coat of something covers most of it, but it is left golden and reflective along the edges. There doesn't seem to be a single keycode on it. It might be a microchip device.

Nicholas flashes a quick smile, and takes the card from the clerk, and puts it in his wallet.

"Thank you, miss?" He asks, before looking to the group reading notes.

"Are you two also guests?"

"Uh, yeah we are. I'm Elise. That's Jonathan."

She flashed a sheepish smile to the incoming guest as she read the note. A small panic grew inside her heart as she gave the note to Jonathan. Its words echoed in her mind.

"Random notes...who is this G person? This is starting to get weird."

@DJAtomika

"Must be either a prankster or some crazy..." Jonathan said thanking her before taking the note and stated to read it.Limping over to a chair taking a seat slowly reading over the note over and over again studying the wording and how it was written.Another thing he was looking for was what ink was used and what paper was used to be written on.

@Eviledd1984

The note appears to be written in plain pencil, from the graininess and the slight smears, but it's too dark to know for sure... Charcoal? Huh, people don't usually use those, but then again, people don't usually sneak around using other people's typewriters...
