Exploring this previously inaccessible side of Mathias has proven to be a good distraction from the fact that more than half the town is still unaccounted for. While Doc remains pessimistic about the key to finding the others being potentially discoverable in Penhew House, especially after having gone back through it yesterday with Raylan and Tim, or Baneberry Hall, he is nonetheless intrigued enough by the latter to spend some of his afternoon there. If nothing else, Malcolm seemed plenty thrilled by the prospect of medication. If Doc and his keen gunslinging eyes finds anything similar that he thinks might be useful, he would surely take it for the young man, bring it back to 1306 later in the evening to see if it would be of any use.

He had no reason to believe that there would be anything peculiar about the objects he might find within the building. He had managed to pick up and put back down a fair number of things as he moved from one room to the other in a silent drift without consequence.

It isn't until he picks up a couple of those innocent little bombshells (he might have been hallucinating the first time - it happens... sometimes...) that he realises the significance of those purportedly harmless trinkets and accoutrements. He... has questions, certainly. But more importantly, by late afternoon he has become a man with a mission, going through Baneberry Hall with renewed determination, looking for something his own old secrets might be hiding in. Preferably before anyone else finds it.
