"Ihrie!" Fam's eyes widened as her partner held the map up nearly to her own nose to read it in what little daylight remained. Tiny words were scrawled on the back of the thick leather parchment.
"Quiet, I'm trying to read this. You can see it when I'm done."
"No! Ihrie, there's words," Fam reached out and tapped the back side of the map.
"Yeah, and I can't read 'em when you're poking the map. Hey!" Ihrie blinked as the map was snagged out of her hands. "What do you think you're doing Fam!" Her outrage was short lived as the cat-girl shoved the map right back in Ihrie's face.
"See! There's more on the back!"
Pulling it from her face, Ihrie was about to start yelling, when she found the other girl was right. "Hmm," she skimmed the glyps, nodding to herself.
"Does it say how to get in? Maybe there's a secret passage."
Ihrie nodded a few more times, before handing the map over to the blonde. "I thought so."
Fam eagerly took the map, but found that the tiny script might as well have been scribbles for all that she could make out. "But, what does it say?"
"Why would I know, if you can't read it? I looks like some kid got a hold of the map and drew all over the back."
"But, Ihrie, you said you could read it," Fam was confused.
"No, all I said was I thought so. I thought it was just a bunch of doodles and I was right," she sighed, slumping against the wall.
"Now what are we supposed to do?" Fam's ears drooped in exasperation.
There was a soft click from the wall behind Ihrie, whose eyes widened as she slowly turned around. "Tell me that wasn't a trap."
