29	->''The old Fiend owns a high-rise hotel and had it built to her specifications. It's posh and upscale, with a beautiful rooftop garden. What nobody knows is that the garden sits atop a [[TortureCellar hidden atrium]] that runs the building's length and is packed with the Tzimisce's native soil. She sleeps where it's deepest, far from harm; supposedly, she's got certain exits from the atrium into certain rooms. The hotel concierge directs lone travelers into these suits and never registers the as having entered. The old Fiend uses her... well, [[CombatTentacles I guess they're arms]]... to snag those guests from their beds and pull them into the dirt with her. Meanwhile, the cleaning staff steals all their possessions when they clean the room out...''

37	->''"[March] wasn't just building the finest hotel Los Angeles had ever seen. It was a perfectly designed [[TortureCellar torture chamber]], an engineered alibi. Secret chutes and rooms to hide and dispose of the bodies. [[DeadEndRoom Hallways with no exits]]. Walls were lined with asbestos so they could mute the screams. People walked in, just ''[[NeverFoundTheBody vanished]].'' 'No body, no crime,' he would say."''

40	->'''Dominic:''' This is becoming less appealing by the minute.\
41	'''Verity:''' That's part of the point. Protective coloration. Even people who realize this is a hotel wouldn't want to ''stay'' here. It looks like the sort of place where the beds are lumpy and full of bedbugs, and maybe you get murdered in the middle of the night.\
