Shifting Sands: AlcheME!

You find yourselves in a tastefully-appointed stateroom with linens and upholstery in AlcheME! purple. At one side is a closet full of Victorian-era costumes and a box of props—whatever you might need to play a role.

There's a desk, and someone has left written instructions on the blotter. Maybe you should read them!
