With the cultists defeated, twice, and the battery room now silent the two ghosts have a moment to recover before heading back to Al. The journey back to her rooms is uneventful and you find no one as you follow the map back to the bar. The bar itself is roudey as you left it, Auguste is back behind the counter and gives Alexis a wink as she passes. Making your way upstairs you knock and wait for Alstromeria. Of course the elven scientist doesn't leave you waiting long.
Alostromeria Aspect: Cautious Scientist, fearing destruction.

As she opens the door a look of surprise registers for a second before melting into relief, "
Oh, you two are back, and so soon. I'm so glad!" She hugs each of you before ushering you in and sitting the two of you down with a cup of tea for each of you. Sitting on the end of her bed she sips from her own glass before asking, "
So how did you manage to find it? And so quickly, please Victoria, Alexis, tell me everything!" She hangs off your every word as if the two of you are master storytellers, gasping as it gets dangerous and waiting with bated breath for the next dazzling feat to clap to. As you reach the end of your story you find that your cups are empty and setting them aside Meria pulls closer to the two of you than is professionally necessary, "
So are you going to show me? I'm so excited to see it, I've always dreamed of a Black Hole Core, and now I'm going to have one power my masterpiece!" She nearly pulls the two of you over to the machine, encouraging you to insert the core into the battery port. Perhaps wiggle it around a little. As soon as you do lights start to flash over the enormous machine and a quiet hum starts from deep within. A loud, incessant beeping starts to bother your ears, Alexis' more due to her sensitivity. Meria rushes over to a console, her eyebrows meeting in confusion as she looks over the readouts. "
Fucking shit, well we don't have much time. Earth 24671 is about to be voided. If that one falls we'll probably loose about 10 other worlds with it. I'm going to send you through to there. I hope you can stop it, just stay still. I'll be here to help from the Restaurant."
She presses a couple of buttons and your stomachs lurch forward, like you were in a car that suddenly stopped. Your eyesight went black for the moment, then returned showing a very different scene. You are in a wooden building with a swinging pair of doors behind you that lead into a rather dusty street. The room before you is rather busy with simply dressed folk playing cards, drinking, or chatting. One person plays a merry tune on the piano, and a couple of men stand up from their table to approach you, ten gallon hats replaced on their heads and the spurs of their boots jingling. It seems like you found yourselves in an old west town. Looking at each other you see yourselves for a moment before it changes. Now you look like you each belong, though perhaps you are prostitutes judging by the style of dress. Yep, looking at other women and even a couple of men dressed like you, and they way they act they are most certainly prostitutes. A pair of prostitutes in an old west bar with a couple of customers approaching you, this job will be interesting at least. A woman intercepts the two of you first caressing Lex's face, "
Why don't you come up to my room deary, I'm sure it will be worth your while." She winks and giggles before spinning away leaving you with a view of how much her hips move in the enormous dress.
