The Glasgow Railroad station was a bustling hub of activity, with steam locomotives churning and passengers bustling as the train came to a hissing stop. Nigel Lonburg, Samuel Baxter, and Janet August disembarked, stepping onto the crowded platform amidst the cloud of steam and clamor.

Characters:

• Nigel Lonburg: Nigel, the rugged and enigmatic hunter, stood tall amidst the bustling crowd, his attire exuding a sense of wilderness and adventure.

• Samuel Baxter: Samuel, the seasoned private detective, was a reassuring presence, recognized by his old friends from their university days. His demeanor was a blend of professionalism and the warmth of old companionship.

• Janet August: Janet, the writer cursed to pen her dark tome in blood, carried an air of mystique that set her apart from the ordinary travelers. Her pale features and ink-stained fingers hinted at the unique nature of her journey.

• Stefan Johansson: Stefan, the attorney of Victorian era Swedish descent, appeared as a scholar amidst the throng. His once-distinguished appearance was marred by weariness, his tired eyes reflecting the burdens of the mysteries that surrounded the Thulin estate. However, a glimmer of happiness and relief illuminated his expression as he saw Samuel, his old friend.

As Samuel and Stefan locked eyes, their expressions transformed into smiles of genuine warmth. They embraced like long-lost brothers, their camaraderie unbroken by the passage of time. "Stefan, my dear fellow," Samuel exclaimed, "It's been far too long since our university days."

Stefan's response was heartfelt, his fatigue momentarily forgotten as he grasped Samuel's hand firmly. "Indeed, Samuel," he replied, "The mysteries you've detailed in your letters have both intrigued and concerned me. I couldn't resist the call to join you."

Nigel, always vigilant, observed Stefan with a keen eye, recognizing the newcomer's exhaustion and the worry etched into his features. "Welcome aboard," Nigel acknowledged, "The challenges we face are not to be underestimated. Your expertise will be invaluable."

Janet, her presence shrouded in an aura of mystique, watched the reunion with an otherworldly gaze. She sensed that their journey was bound to be fraught with enigmas and dangers.

As the group moved through the bustling station, the camaraderie of old friends reunited was palpable. Conversations flowed, blending tales of university days with discussions about the mysteries that lay ahead. The clatter of luggage and the noise of the steam engines faded into the background as the quartet walked together, the shared purpose of uncovering the secrets surrounding the Thulin estate strengthening their bonds.

Their destination, the waiting Stagecoach, lay ahead. The mysteries surrounding the Thulin estate loomed larger than ever, but in the presence of old friends and new allies, they embarked on this journey with a sense of unity and determination, ready to confront the unknown together.
