Right, that's it.
The builders work slowly, lazily, chatting with one another about the football results. Occasionally one of them will wander off into one of the adjoining rooms and admire the opulence of the large, well-lit Primrose Hill home of the famous pop singer (“I’d do her”, one of them confides to his mate).
“Right,” the foreman says, stretching his arms out as if emerging from slumber. “Get the drill in, Ahmed. May as well get through that concrete sooner or later.”
The drill roars, driving cracks outwards in all directions through the thick grey concrete. The walls tremble, and shake.
Next door, in a slightly larger house held under the name of Anthony Sommers, an ancient-looking, faded, phallic Mesopotamian vase wobbles precariously on its stand, then topples.
It strikes the ground. And shatters, the clay shards spilling out in all directions across the floor of the vault.
Then a cupboard falls on it.
If it could ever have had any relevance to any of the events happening in London, it’s surely lost it, along with whatever powers it might have held.
Also, it can’t be stuck back together again because it’s magic, or something.
