The girls looked around the small treehouse, little trinkets catching their eyes. Everywhere Emilia looked, she found different chapters of their time together, From the dictionary to the hammock, every small talk fell through her head. She found herself smiling at the thought, before Enola called her over.

Enola directed her towards a pallet of tools, "This must've been where he laid his plans." She assumed, turning to her sister. "Or maybe that's what he wanted them to think?" Emilia asked opening the book found in her hands. 

LABOURERS AT LIMEHOUSE DOCK, the book read at the bottom of the picture laced page. Enola pulled out the map from under the table, ushering her sister to show her the book.

"He was leading them astray." Enola called out. She traced her fingers over the pen traced circle around the London Dock.

"That could've been why Bowler hat was there."

"He was following the breadcrumb trail."

"Then, what was his actual plan?" Emilia asked as the girls went through books.

Emilia opened up, finding two blue flowers flattened by the weight of the book. She smiled, showing her sister the flower.

"Oh, you tickle me, Viscount Tewkesbury, you magnificent Marquess of blooming Basilwether," Emilia observed the flower.

"He's a cleverer boy than I perhaps gave him credit for." Enola added on. She read the page location, COVENT GARDEN MARKET.

A woman's voice boomed from below, shocking the two girls. Emilia fell back, hitting her bottom on the wood and losing her hat. Enola jumped from the sudden noise before helping her sister up.

"It's not as stable as you think up there. Some of those branches are extremely capricious." The girls hesitantly walked towards the ledge, Emilia, picking up her hat before hand.

"Good morning" The grandma said as the girls came in eyesight.

"I believe we already met, though you were dressed differently then." 

Emilia nodded, Enola replied, " You'd already discovered this, hadn't you?"

She nodded, "We found it a few days ago. Would you two care to come down?"

Once fully down, the three walked, "Did you see anything to report to your... 'employer'"

"Oh, not particularly." Emilia replied.
