You're woken by Kostas

You wake up with your legs tangled in the bedsheets and an insistent knocking on the door. "Mr. Reiland, are you okay?" You slip on a fresh shirt and shorts before opening the door to find Kostas waiting outside in his receptionist uniform, looking concerned. "One of the other guests called reception to complain about the noise coming from your room last night. He glances around the room, but doesn't step inside. "Oh... I thought..." He pauses. "Did you... have a bad dream? About the... the resort?"

You say nothing, but Kostas takes your silence as tacit confirmation. "This... this happened to one of the other guests who stayed in this room. A backpacker, I remember - he asked me to book a bus trip to Lake Kournas. Woke up the other guests with his shouting during the night. He told me he- he dreamed about me, and that we were, ah, we were having sex in his dream..." Kostas blushes. "But the strange thing is, he never checked out of the hotel. Dimitrios, my manager, he had to speak to the police. Just... never came back from the tour. Went missing."

Kostas warily enters the room, crossing to the window and opening the shutters. Below, in the courtyard, you see two uniformed hotel staff loading the statue onto a wheeled trolley and making their way towards the Persephone wing of the resort, leaving in its place a different statue carved of local stone and with cruder features. "Not long after that, your uncle had a letter from the Archaiologikó Mouseío - the Museum, in Heraklion. The curator said he had a tip from a visitor saying our hotel isn't looking after its antiquities properly. He wanted to conduct a survey, but Dimitrios said no - even threatened legal action!"

He looks at you. "Dimitrios and your uncle have been spending a lot of time together lately. Dimitrios, he- he was very, ah, keen for your uncle to bring you and your brother here to stay. I don't know why. He even asked Ioannis, our head of security, to pick you up from the airport, even though Ioannis is supposed to be on medical leave from work. But, I know Ioannis and Dimitrios are close. He's been working as a security guard for Talos bar, in Agios Nikolaos, where Dimitrios used to work..." Kostas shakes his head. "I... we shouldn't talk here. Come and find me at reception in the Persephone wing when you're ready to learn more."

You nod, and Kostas leaves you to get ready for the day.
