Sleep No More - Gallow Green - Sixth Clue, NYC, Central Park

SLEEP NO MORE is doing a game leading up to their premiere in March. The fifth clue led to a meetup in Boston, and this, the sixth, led to Central Park in NYC. It started atop a giant boulder, by the carousel. As I arrived, a woman climbed up beside me, tossed an overcoat over a prominent stone, and ran off before I could say a thing. People slowly started to arrive, and at sunset a ringtone came from the boulder. The pockets of the coat were empty, so after a quick frenzied search, someone found the phone under the boulder. The man on the line told her to pick someone to go meet him. She chose me, as I had been the first to arrive. The phone rang and the man told me to meet him at the Chess and Checkers nearby, wearing the overcoat. I hastily threw it on and ran down there to meet him.

He approached me in a three piece suit. He looked familiar, he may have been the male witch. He asked me for a light, which I provided him, and then asked me what I was looking for. I paused for a moment and responded, "An answer, I guess." He took my hand, read my palm, and said to me, "It's not an answer you need, it's protection." and with that he tore a bead off his necklace, placed it in my palm, and sent me back. One by one he called for us, until finally his time was up, and he sent the last visitor back with the scant remainder of his beads, to be given to those who he hadn't time to meet.
