The Staff of the Wren’s Nest Nearly Fixes a Window

There are two windows to a mysterious, unaccessible room up very high at the Nest that have recently lost their glass. When it rains, water comes in these windows. Which then comes down to lower floors. And proceeds to ruin things.

We don’t care for this scenario.

(The offending window, taken from as close to it as we could get. Can you tell why we’re eager for a new coat of paint on the place?)

Unfortunately, the only people we had on hand to resolve this issue were Lain and Eduardo, who began their adventure with the following dialog:

Eduardo: “Are we ready to do some windows?”

Lain: “Yeah! But first we need to figure out how to open this!” (holds up a tub of window glaze)

Moments later, Eduardo returns, triumphant: “I opened it with a spoon.”

Excitement was in the air! We were going to fix something! With our own 5 hands (I had one allotted to the camera)! Without any idea what we were really doing!

While we were sure that someone was going to get hurt, that did not deter our enthusiasm. See?

Turns out the ladder was in the wrong place. Like I said, we’re experts. I helped here by… documenting. The work of a mercenary is never done!

Clearly clothing had to be shed when things got too manly/dirty.

Look how triumphant Lain looks upon reaching the alleged summit! It was short-lived, however.

Quickly Lain discovered he couldn’t actually get up to the window in question. Shoot.

So we made good use of his height and took some “aerial” shots.

There’s the retirement home! And… the ground. Good choices.

Then, like any Executive Director would, Lain squatted on the roof and cleaned out the gutters with his bare hands. It was gross. I was very busy running away from the muck pouring down around me, but still managed to take a picture. For you.

We’re pretty sure that this trap door is the key to our success/where all the dead bodies are hidden. We have no idea how to get up there, as it is directly above very steep and wind-y stairs. Any suggestions?

So, to sum up, we accomplished pretty much nothing, and the Wren’s Nest remains unsealed. Can you imagine how well we’ll document a real adventure?! I can barely wait!
