In a final dash, Dash darts well into the lobby of the Daily Planet and up the elevator to the newsroom.

"Good job kid," said Clark Kent.

Thanks all for playing! It was fun. The Sanctuary game is set up at Table #5 ( https://www.unseenservant.us/forum/view ... 57&t=10954 )

Congrats Dash. Very close at the end. I shouldn't have stopped for that hot dog.
