The word was out that another Luna establishment was about to yield its treasures to the masses! However, upon arrival it seemed that the house in question was in sound condition, much to the puzzlement of the misinformed throng..
It did seem that the house had been condemned, but to what end? Surely there were better ways of disposing of real estate, for example..
Suddenly it was clear that, in any case, Draconius was emptying the property of its valuables after all. The hopeful among the crowd fossicked through the bric-a-brac..
Soon after, a gate was opened and the attendees dutifully filed through the beckoning portal. Although few of them had been to West Britain in recent times, most folk correctly identified the building they were presented with at the other end of the gate..
More jetsam was ejected from Draconius' bankbox and quickly snatched up. Shortly after another portal opened with the promise of more goodies. Dubiously, the gathering peeked into the red, swirling void..
Upon arrival, the dwindling crowd were told there'd be a prize for anyone who entered the castle. Suspicion and curiosity were once again piqued in equal measure. Further investigations revealed that the castle was verboten, none could enter. Also, it appeared the castle didn't even belong to the host! Something was definitely amiss..
A slip of the tongue by Draconius laid bare his nefarious plot for all to hear; it was a murderous trap!
A few choice words from the true owner of the castle clarified the situation..
Thus, the plot was thwarted.. or was it?
