When Tyler awoke, he saw Sherrington and Ram standing over him. He was alive? Or were they all… No, no, they were definitely alive. Sitting up, Tyler looked at the two old men and asked: "Sherrington? Ram? Where is… Rosie! Where is Rosie?" Jumping to his feet, Tyler quickly looked back and forth. She was gone… Cagliostro had taken her and now she was surely…
"She lives, son." Stated Sherrington, handing a letter to Tyler. "Cagliostro left this, although it took a while to figure out what it said."
Taking the letter, Tyler wondered how bad Cagliostro's handwriting could have been. This wonder did not last as he realized quite quickly that if Cagliostro had not had his nitrate injection, then that meant his hands were not as steady.
The letter that Cagliostro was a challenge for Tyler, Sherrington and Ram to rescue Rosie before midnight. No doubt it was just Cagliostro wanting to kill four people he considered harmless all at once, but the fact that he was keeping Rosie alive for the time being spoke volumes about how overconfident he was being.
Turning the letter over, Tyler saw a map to Cagliostro's residence. Into the lion's den. Lovely. His home was on the other side of Toronto, near the waterfront, no doubt Cagliostro intended to dispose of their bodies by throwing them into the water, if he didn't have some sort of spell for that.
"We have to get Rosie back!" exclaimed Tyler. "We have to save her!"
"And we will, Tyler." Promised Ram, placing a hand on his shoulder. "But we must be cautious. We don't know what he has in store for us."
