Tales of the Starbuck Avenger!!! (67)
Saint Raphael's cathedral may in fact have lain before us, but if we were counting on being able to confirm this fact with our eyes, we were sorely disappointed. As soon as we hit East Main, the dark of the night glommed around us in a sort of sticky black fog. I slowed the scooter to a crawl.

Attention, UK Pratchett Fans

It is a testament to how my brain works...
