Hushed tones: speaking.] -Ah-hem. .[Boots: spinning. Knuckles on helmets: cracking.] Cap'n! Sir! -Anything to report, Guardsman Otto? .No sir! I mean, yessir! Definitely! -[Eyebrow: rising.] .Sitin's, sir! -[Long pause.] Sightings. .Yes sir! Sitin's, sir. And.. and noises! Very ominous, sir! -[Headache: building.] And who made these... sightings, Guardsman? .Well, uh... There 'e is! >Have yo-oomph! [Elbow to the ribs.] .'E sited 'em sitin's, sir! >My sister! Please, have you sight- seen my sister? .Weeell no, not as such lad, but she's bound to 'ave gone missin' on account o'those sitin's. >She is? .Why yes, they're notorious for that sorta nefarious business, them... warlocks, yeah. >Warlocks?!?
