The tarantian is a local newspaper we can tell our story to the editor and once the issue gets printed we'll become a celebrity. This will of course have consequences so i'm not going to do that.

The main story wanted us here because we are to receive a telegram from Virgil's mentor. I have discovered something interesting concerning our friends with strange amulets.
