In an effort to give them better lives, Xyllis had made them believe that they were barmaids who had worked at the same inn together for many years, but after it had closed they had resorted to desperate measures to pull in revenue. Unfortunately/fortunately (depending on how you looked at it), the establishment where they had sought work had also closed before they were able to start. In fact they were the only survivors of the catastrophe that had taken place. "Oh, I feel horrid," murmured Penelope (who had been Freda). "As do I," said Daisy (who had been Astra). "What... what happened? The fire?" "I am afraid there has been a terrible disaster at the bawdy house," said Xyllis, and they turned to her, still blinking their way to consciousness. "You two are the sole survivors." After much weeping and many questions on both their parts, Daisy asked, "What are we to do now?"
