So when we all gathered in the Library, there was 12 of us with the same invitation for a lovely, interesting week. We were waiting for the thirteenth guest. We introduced ourselves to each other as this was the first time we all had met. Each coming from differen't parts of the world and all asking the same question. Who was this Host, who invited us here to the old mansion and why did he keep his name a secret? We all pondered the same ideas, while the decreped sway back butler served us tea and crumpets. The butler answered none of our queeries except with a "Wait and see!" answer. Then there were bright headlights for an instant, shining in the huge elongated, heavily draped windows. We all slowly walked to the window to take a peek at whoever it was....the night was heavy with fog and the shadows so deep outside we couldn't make out who it was.... Not yet, anyway!
