Ponto didn't remember going to sleep the night before, but that was probably because he had drunk too much ale.
Some of the other Party-goers were up and about, helping to clean the enormous mess everyone had made the night before. He knew he should probably help them, so he came out into the Common Room.
It was littered with ale mugs, party decor, and scattered tables and chairs. He set a chair upright, and began to help clean up the mess.
Sweeping up some of the spilt ale and righting some of the chairs, Ponto came across a hastily scrawled message on one of the tables.
"Look to it in the morning....[something undecipherable]... take care... once and for all..... the long sleep."
"Very sinister," Ponto muttered to himself, "What can it mean?"
