And Isis did approach the First Gate, and the Guardian of the First Gate did say to her: lo, thy bags are heavy and numerous, let me take them from you. And then did the Guardian of the First Gate mark her possessions with the sigils of LATE CHECKIN and did make them disappear. Thus were her bags taken from her.

Then did the guardian of the second gate appear, and said nothing, but caused her to drop and shatter her sunglasses. Thus was her helm taken from her.

Then the Demons of TSA, who guard the third Gate, did swoop upon her, saying, you must be empty of everything that may be used to harm another. Have you any blade that might taste blood? Have you any poison or elixir in excess of three ounces? Have you any tool that may be used in any way whatsoever? For the Demons of TSA are full of fear and cunning, and will take anything that their masters decide may be of harm. Thus was her blade taken from her. (but Isis knew the secret of assassins, which is to forget how many blades you carry, and thereby none other may know their number. Thus she passed the Guardians with one small tooth, but did not yet know it herself)

Then did Isis approach the Fourth Gate, where the Guardian thereof did merely observe her, for the Guardian knew that Isis had been stripped bare. And from thence did she take flight. Thus did Isis enter the Western Lands.
