41.08 Green Room
“Green Room” The only specifications on the rider was for it to be cluttered with antiquities and pitch dark. And a bottle of booze. That will set the mood.
Be careful out there.

Panel 1
Nab quickly moves further to the back of a room, the light from the entrance failing to reach halfway into the space. The articles in the darkness - rolled up tarps, crates, barrels, sacks, and a throne-like litter with the poles removed - are barely noticeable. Even what can be seen - a horned helmet and mail shirt on an armor stand with a shield resting against it, a chest, a terracotta black figure vase decorated with gobos holding hands on a box, a barrel with an unlit candle stick - are placed haphazardly, cluttering up the area and making it difficult to maneuver. So tight are the paths that Nab barely brushes the mail shirt with an elbow and an audible "Tap"...
Panel 2
...which causes the armor stand to sway and fall back towards the light, tipping over the shield and flinging the horned helmet into the vase with a "Bap", sending it over the edge. Nab is turned around towards the commotion with a start, missing any details on the right side of the room...
Panel 3
...and not noticing the gobo slouched on the litter with bottle and crown in hand, illuminated as light pours in through the purple curtains that Nab rushes through. So fast did the gobo move that Nab covered the distance before the vase could shatter on the floor with a "Tsh!"
Panel 4
As the curtains fall back into position, before the light is once more blocked from entering the room, the gobo in the chair lifts the almost empty bottle to have a drink. And somewhere, Rek's herald sounds the horn with a "Hob".
