Received by the Oldest Toy in the Labyrinth, a [[Millicent (The Time of the Toymaker)|worn teddy bear]], [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]], [[Juliet-178]] and [[Arganthone-056]] explain [[Madame Tarsa]]'s predicament. The teddy bear confirms that Tarsa entrusted her with some of her secrets, and, taking out a seemingly blank book from a shelf, she uses a secret sigil to make one page become legible. The page contains a rhyming riddle which speaks of some “key” which must be retrieved from a “distant star” and could be used to reanimate Tarsa. With the teddy bear unable to shed any further light on the mysterious writing, the three travellers agree to try and see if they can find out anything more about this key in the archives of other, learned civilisations. They select as their first target the “forbidden wing of the [[Euclidean Plane]]'s Pentagon”, into which Arganthone broke once before, “for a [[Scarlet Wings]] mission back in ’84”. | Received by the Oldest Toy in the Labyrinth, a [[Millicent (The Time of the Toymaker)|worn teddy bear]], [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]], [[Juliet-178]] and [[Arganthone-056]] explain [[Madame Tarsa]]'s predicament.

Arriving in the snowy [[Euclidean Plane]], the trio of [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]], [[Juliet-178]] and [[Arganthone-056]] head for the [[Geometron Citadel]]. However, as soon as they get close, patrolling [[Triangry|Triangries]] and [[Octaser]]s chase them off, believing this to be yet another attempted invasion of their world from the [[Crew of the Copper-Colored Cupids|Crew]]. They return holding a white flag (or, rather, a white leaf), calling for a Christmas truce and bringing a captive [[Ambagesque]] as a present and token of goodwill. While one of the guards goes to ask their superiors, the visitors and the guards begin to engage in a good-natured snowball fight. When the emissary of the Geometron Council return, they grudgingly allow the Cupids to search the Geometrons' records. Unfortunately, after much searching, it turns out the only sentence in the Geometrons' “file” on Tarsa is “The Cupids may have information about her”. Deciding they might as well take this at face value, however, the three resolve to head to the [[Cupid Homeworld]] and ask [[Bibliophile-962]] whether the [[Cupid Archives]] might hold relevant data. | |||
