"Above the city the storm clouds rage,
And waves crash through the gilded cage,
The skies open the Path above to
Lost Carcosa.
Below the earth the salt water seeps,
The shadows fall as the red sun sleeps
The ocean opens the Path below to
Dim Carcosa."

It doesn't take long for the amiable hostess to open up to you about the play. "Oh yes, my husband and I helped Sebastien produce the whole thing," she explains. "I was a little hesitant at first, but that director - Mr. Nigel Engram - my, what a talented man!" She laughs. "He's so very eccentric! Did you know, before rehearsals even began, he had us recite some kind of… Why, I suppose it was an oath of sorts. A formality, I guess. You know creative types and their silly rituals. But afterward, we were filled with so much spirit!" She smiles, zeal in her eyes. "From that moment on, we had no hesitations. The King in Yellow would be the most successful performance in Arkham history!"

In speaking with Miss Ishimaru, you discover that she designed all of the costumes worn in tonight's performance, save for one. "That 'Stranger' character… Peculiar role, is it not? For whatever reason, Mr. Engram would not allow me to change his outfit, not one bit. And that mask!" She scoffs. "Did you know, one time I found that actor - I don't even know his name! - I found him drawing a strange pattern behind the backdrop for the second act. You know the one, with the two suns. He gave me a terrible stare, and I daresay I jumped right off the stage and ran!" You ask what the pattern looked like, and she finds a nearby napkin and begins to draw. Her re-creation is much more detailed than you expected: rings of concentric semicircles lined with strange runes, and at the center is a pair of wavy lines. You ask her what it means, and she shrugs. "Haven't the slightest clue."

Mr. Perry is indifferent to your questions at first, but he grows more talkative as you express interest in his many investments. You learn that he has financed several productions of The King in Yellow in the past - not just tonight's performance. "It was the director, Mr. Engram, who convinced me to invest," he explains. "The first time I met him was in Paris, at a café in Montparnasse. What was the name?" He ruminates for some time, trying to remember. "Anyway, he convinced me that not every investment is about capital gain. One might consider me a fool to believe him, but I don't regret my decision. I've been financing his productions ever since." He smiles and pauses for some time, lost in memory. "L'agneau Perdu, that was the place. Yes, yes. What a night."

You can tell Sebastien is a dramatic man from the way he speaks about tonight's production. "Better than last year! Indeed! The best I've ever seen!" You ask him whether this was the first performance of The King in Yellow he'd helped produce, and he shakes his head in vigorous disagreement. "No, no, of course not! We've done many many shows before. Paris, Florence, New York - why, this isn't even the first time the play has been performed in Arkham!" Surprised, you question him further. "Well, alright, if you must know, I had nothing to do with the previous show in Arkham. It was several decades ago, before Ward Theatre was even built. In fact, part of Mr. Engram's goal tonight was to bring the story of The King in Yellow to a wider audience!"
