[He stands beside her, looking down at the figure emerging from the grave, then over his shoulder at the figure of a young Mr Drebber and his lamp.]
All but recently, however, was that figure was a critical piece of evidence that unraveled a wider, insidious conspiracy. Only recently has he returned to his “proper” location, mask locked once more, though it appears the proprietor has not yet reopened the exhibit to the public yet.
[Mmm. What should he say about this? This was such an ugly array of truths that was like poison bramble to untangle, and with it said and done, maybe she doesn’t need to know. It would be easier to not burden her with this old shadow.
But ultimately, this does eventually connect back to Iris, and Sholmes feels as though… she should know. If she is so committed to earning Iris’ love (it is already earned), it’s unfair to obscure the truth from her.]
The truth is, though this display shows no bloodied bodies, it was a messy affair all around. And a… personal one, at least in how, if you follow its long and dreadful thread, it connects indelibly to dear Iris.
