After the two Cupids explain the purpose of their mission, Jenny opines that [[Madame Tarsa]] probably had some safeguard in place to resurrect herself in case anything happened ot her, which might be worth looking into. With the Fog Ship unable to take off again, she agrees to [[shift]] the two of them back to the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]] and join them on their investigation beyond that. | After the two Cupids explain the purpose of their mission, Jenny opines that [[Madame Tarsa]] probably had some safeguard in place to resurrect herself in case anything happened ot her, which might be worth looking into.

Moments after Jenny, Juliet, Arganthone and Pythe have left, [[Pythagoras-858]] (in a human disguise) turns a corner into the same street of Victorian London, which turns out to be none other than 1895 [[Baker Street]]. He makes his way to [[221B Baker Street]] and is greeted by [[Mrs Hudson]]. She is initially reluctant to let him in, but after he persuades her to simply pass his name along to [[Sherlock Holmes]] and gives it as “[[Professor Moriarty|Professor James R. Moriarty]]”, Holmes naturally lets him in. Pythe, though keeping his true nature as an android a secret, reveals to Holmes that he is a time-traveller by pointing out an error in one of his monographs which he has yet to publish, and whose only draft currently resides on Holmes's own desk. Baffled but intrigued, Holmes agrees to hear him out. | Moments after Jenny, Juliet, Arganthone and Pythe have left, [[Pythagoras-858]] (in a human disguise) turns a corner into the same street of Victorian London, which turns out to be none other than 1895 [[Baker Street]].

Back in the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]], [[Arganthone-056]] attempts to get the [[Mechanical Fortune Teller]] to tell them whether or not [[Madame Tarsa]] had any failsafes in place. However, after it transpires that the Fortune Teller is programmed to never give a straight answer to a question, an irritated Arganthone stomps off to join their companions, who have already made their way to the [[Madame Tarsa's Toybox]]. | Back in the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]], [[Arganthone-056]] attempts to get the [[Mechanical Fortune Teller]] to tell them whether or not [[Madame Tarsa]] had any failsafes in place.

After catching up with them through the initial stage of the Labyrinth inside, Arganthone rejoins [[Juliet-178]] and [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]] on the outskirts of [[Wild West Town]], where they are greeted by the [[Frog Mayor]] of the town. The Mayor is initially mistrustful of them due to the bad behaviour of the two previous Cupid visitors of the labyrinth, [[Pessimist-242]] and [[Larrikin-1029]], but after he is reassured that not all Cupids are as irksome as that duo, he advises them to seek out the oldest toy in the Labyrinth, currently residing in the [[Christmas Toyland]], as she might know some of Tarsa's secrets, even if the Mayor does not. | After catching up with them through the initial stage of the Labyrinth inside, Arganthone rejoins [[Juliet-178]] and [[Jenny Everywhere#Adventures with the Cupids|Jenny Everywhere]] on the outskirts of [[Wild West Town]], where they are greeted by the [[Frog Mayor]] of the town.

Having been brought up to speed and ferried to the [[Workshop of Madame Tarsa]] by [[Pythagoras-858]], [[Sherlock Holmes#In the Prime Universe|Holmes]] is able to deduce that Tarsa's aggressor must have had some means of teleporting in and out of the room, and observes that they stole Tarsa's [[Madame Tarsq's cane|cane]], which is neither in her hand nor anywhere to be found in the Workshop. Pythe comes up with a slightly alternative hypothesis: that Tarsa was attacked by one of her own creations (who thus didn't need any teleporting abilities to get ''in''), who subsequently escaped using the powers of Tarsa's cane. | |||
