@Nimueh Aye, we should mention the new coordinates to them. I doubt Cole will be out of the hospital so soon. If Deeds doesn’t want to go maybe she can ask Marty to bring the compass there. But in any case, they should know. And know we’re certainly not demanding anything of them given all they did for us just now.
@Tinker Amen, that swirling blue background is music to my eyes.
I can’t even begin to figure out what to say to her given all she’s probably gone through the last 4 days, not to mention the spell sickness she may have now. My words fail me.
Edit: That was my way of saying “Yes, someone should. But I have zero idea what to say so someone please find a way.”
The only people I can super think of would be her Fairy Godmothers, @Leigha and @MissEvans or @Augustus_Octavian who reminded her of Elainnor. If they can’t I’d say give it a try, @Nimueh . Your heart is likely in the right place.
You know, I don’t think there’s a more satisfying picture than seeing the BoB whole again. And a quick thought from me: Maybe when someone asks Deidre to visit the coordinates, they ask for Cole, Marty, etc. to do it instead. Deidre needs a break desperately right now.
I think Cole may be out of action for longer than Deeds, though that would depend how how extensive the burns he got from the storm are. Even so, he’ll be resting up for a bit.
Instead of trying to figure out how to ask any of them to go traipsing around Lower Manhattan, I thought I’d try to figure out why the Book is sending us here, since the other locations have had historic significance. The map coordinates didn’t give any blatant answer, though the building it points to looks almost like it has a fraylily-type design to some of the blocks on the outside.
As far as that particular building, I think it may be this bit of the write-up:
Astor had the mansion moved from the top of the hill it stood on to the corner of Charlton and Varick, and the hill was levelled; the mansion was subsequently used as a theatre.
Edit: Got a better look at the street view on the computer, that particular building is the SE corner of Varick and Charlton, the one the coordinates point to is the NW corner.
But I did get a screenshot of the outside of the building’s fraylily-looking bits.
Edit #2: If we hadn’t heard anything back from Deeds, I would’ve suggested that perhaps the Google map views for inside the building (you can look around inside part of it!) as a potential source for answers.
It makes a good hiding spot for the last Fragment if you think about it. Anyone looking for it without the Books help, and even those with it’s help, wouldn’t think to look there.
