Lobby Amber We Trumped right up to the gates of Castle Amber. Pretty good. The gate were wide open so we strolled in. The guards seemed to recognize us. Did I sense some nervousness in them? The castle was huge, so I flagged down a page and had him give us a tour. He showed us the stables (been there), the kitchens, the grain storage, the main well, etc. It was interesting and useful, but I felt that Connie was losing interest. He has such a short attention span. Luckily, I received a Trump call just then. It was Locke and he wanted to join us, so I pulled him through. By the stars, is he heavy. Locke suggested we experiment with Trumps. I was also eager to see Connie render a Trump, so we asked the page to guide us to ink and paper. He brought us to a store room.

We talked for a while in the store room about our training sessions and about the state of politics in Amber. Shortly, Locke suggested we move to the library, and he led the way. Before we could get propperly settled in I received a Trump call. It was Bleys and it sounded urgent, so we all Trumped to him.
