The Scroll of Exposition

"Wait!" said Lord Fred. "One of the vampires dropped a scroll!" He picked up the scroll and unfurled it. His jaw dropped in awe. "This is the Sacred Scroll of Exposition!" shouted Fred. "It is a magical artifact that seeks out heroes and imparts information to them that would aid them in their quest! It says:

Dear Sir or Madam:

Vampire Josh Burbank has arisen from his grave and stolen the child of the prophecy. He will destroy the world if he is not stopped. He is completely immune to the normal weaknesses of a vampire. The only being who can kill him is Sara Hewitt, a Shaolin monk in the Monastary of the Golden Lotus, who is being trained under the legendary Drunken Master Ryu. Unfortunately, we cannot tell you how she is meant to kill him, because otherwise there would be no plot, since the Monastary of the Golden Lotus is in fact on this very island. (It is very cleverly hidden.) When you bring the scroll to her, it will tell you where to seek the necessary information. Good luck on your quest! PS--beware of the Kumquat Monster!

"We are saved!" shouted Astra euphorically.

"I'll transport Velus and Alura," said Fred.

"I don't think that will work," said Astra. "Er, because Vampire Josh has set up a field of powerful dark magic."

"Great Crom, you're right! Let's go down to the beach and get Alura and Velus."

1. They gather Velus and Alura to search for the Shaolin monastary, and manage to find it fairly quickly.
2. They gather Velus and Alura to search for the Shaolin monastary, but don't find it after several hours of searching. An argument ensues.
