Rias contacted Martin on the morning of the concert. Her first message arrived before he finished breakfast.
[Rias: Arrive at the north service entrance at 3:40. Come alone.]
[Rias: Alexandra should use the VIP entrance at the time printed on her pass.]
Martin checked both tickets again. The hospitality lounge opened at six, and the main performance started two hours later.
[Martin: Does Elisebeth know about this?]
[Rias: She knows you have tickets. She does not know I changed your arrival instructions.]
[Martin: Why did you change them?]
[Rias: I will explain when you arrive. Wear comfortable shoes and bring identification.]
[Martin: That sounds more threatening than you probably intended.]
[Rias: It was exactly as threatening as necessary to make you arrive on time.]
