Artemis chuckled as Volkov confirmed that she did, in fact, catch her reference to Frankenstein. Soon they were climbing the stairs and it wasn't long before they reached another door. Artemis opened it and pushed it open. She gasped in pleasant surprise as she saw the room. It was beautiful, and full of all manner of tools and charts Artemis had only ever dreamed of seeing in person. Volkov had left her shoulder and gone to explore the room on her own. Artemis did the same.

She was running her hands over the massive telescope when she heard a massive creak. Artemis looked down, seeing Volkov with a string half-hanging out of her mouth. It was absolutely precious and she scratched behind Volkov's ears before hearing Volkov tell her to pull it and feeling her little paws against the hem of her skirts. Artemis did, and it took quite a bit of strength and shook up quite an amount of dust, but soon the entire ceiling opened up to show a massive amount of windows.

"Oh my god... this is gorgeous!" Artemis exclaimed, unable to keep the excitement from her voice. She immediately went to the telescope and placed her up up to the eyepiece. It was focused on a city, but the image was blurry. Playing with the knobs, Artemis was able to focus it. It was incredible how much she could see. The city was likely only half a mile to a mile away, but it was still impressive. She was even able to read the signs on the buildings, which finally answered her question of where they were. "Volkov... you have to look in here. You'll probably have to transform to your human form, but you can see the city from here. And it seems we're in Salem."
