The esteemed Count Beauchamps will be exploring a recently discovered anomaly in the time and space up till around 20th Sept, having discovered a threat to human existance in the form of man eating plants, however he will be returning to our dimension at intervals during that time to begin work on various bits of optical trickery, the pan dimensional weed spraying should be mostly wrapped up by then, perhaps with a few leaves and the like lingering to be completed. As in many such dimensional travels The Count is writing his own ticket and so will endeavour to be present at particularly important meetings in order to confabulate. He is currently drafting some blueprints for the capturing of nature within a prism, and finalising construction on a Chinese geomantic gateway for an upcoming ritual with the cult of the red claw.
