In which, the new executive curator of the museum, Carrières de Lumières got stuck in a manless place, with a storm on his toe. Seeking shelter for the night, he met someone quiet individual. And the cute meeting, turned into something more mysterious.

"This car!"
He punched the dashboard of the SUV out of frustration before resting his forehead on the wheel and sighing deeply.
"This is the end of my career"; he murmured with his eyes closed. Pulling out his cellphone from his pocket and unlocking the device with a swift touch of fingertips, he all but regretted the decision at the very moment, as the bright light in the middle of such a dark atmosphere was not something his eyes could bear. After adjusting the brightness level of his cell phone, he tried to check for network connection, and had no luck with it. He even moved his phone in the air in a comical manner, as if it'd catch the connection like that, but it was futile as well.
"All of this stuff had to happen today out of all days?" He cried out and once again found some sort of comfort by resting his forehead on the steering wheel and inhaling sharply. He tried to recall everything that happened to him today.
Adrien Agreste, who got hired as the new executive curator of 'Carrières de Lumières', was pretty happy with his life. The most recent exhibition which was planned by him, was a big success. The exhibit was about modern medieval age culture and civilization, and surprisingly enough, it caught the attention of more people than expected. Because of this exhibit, the museum gained some new sponsors as well, about which, their director as well as the owner, Mr. Felici was really happy. He even congratulated him personally! Adrien was surprised at the gesture, but he was grateful nonetheless. And now, there he was, far away from his home city, which he loved a lot(he liked to say so, but who knows what one housed deep in their heart), and at the outskirts of an abandoned village. And the fact that the forest was not much faraway from the place his car was at, didn't help much either. Adrien tried to remember his last conversation with his boss, which was, okay in his opinion.
He was supposed to go to the neighbouring town to bring a very fragile piece for their upcoming Egyptian exhibit. It was an old papyrus scroll, from 2000 BC. It was not in a very good condition, so Adrien insisted that he'd go and pick it up so that their conservator would have some extra time to fix it. The scroll was in another exhibit in the neighbouring town, which caused the blond man the current peculiar situation.
By now, he would've been at home resting on his couch, without a care of the world only if his car didn't break down. Adrien looked at his wrist watch hard to see in the dim Light. He squinted his eyes once, then turned on the light of his car.
