I'm glad you asked, because we have to figure that out.

First thought: Russia.
Second thought: If it's in Russia, it might not be a well-known city. But then again, they might expect us to think that, so don't rule out Moscow.
Third: It's probably in the European side of Russia, the other part is nearly uninhabited.
Fourth: He might not even be in Russia in the first place.
Why thank ye. Actually, he's probably not too far from (wherever we are now, Tibet???). Because he's supposed to find Leo, who's in his neighborhood, so...
Ok, I'm back.
We have to find a way to get inside the Russian guy's camp. Of course, I have no idea how to do that, so I think it would be wise if we all flew to Russia. We can figure out what to do from there.

Moscow? Capitol, biggest city... Maybe if we got hold of a good computer we could take a bit of his voice and ask if people thought he sounded familiar?Oh, and we're looking for a Dmitri. Which rules out quite a few other Russian names.

Leo stole the maps, the leader's angry('cared' for Leo...I'll come back to that), called up Russian dude named Dmitri who's going to track down Leo and steal the maps. Leo's in Dmitri's 'neighborhood', which is almost certainly Russia itself, and probably the European side(by FAR the more populous).

We have a problem, though. The private flight, tools and money we were given belonged to the agency. Since we're doing this alone, we have to find our own way to Russia.
A local tibeting official offered to help us pay for the flight (he has a loooonnnngggg bad history with Leo and the Leader) but we have to work for it.
Here's how it'll work. He'll give us a task to complete. Everytime one of us completes the task he'll purchase their ticket.

Okay, sounds good. What're we doing?
I just realized something...When Dumbeldore was awarding points at the end of the first movie, and he told Neville that it took a great deal of courage to stand up to your enemies, but an even greater amount to stand up to your friends, he was referring to him fighting Grindelwald O.O
Here's the first task.
On the Tibet Wikipedia page, under the title: Phagmodrupa Dynasty and the Dalai Lamas
I need you to find me the name of a school.

Habz got the first ticket to Russia! Great job!
(btw, if you already have a ticket, you are allowed to still complete the tasks and just like before, you get to choose who gets the next ticket)

oh, no- I didn't mean it that way! I'm not really worried about spoilers with this series, b/c I already know most of the big things, like deaths and romances and stuff...I just meant that I think I understood what you were saying... :)

Oh okay...
Here's the next task:
On the same website. I need you to tell me what Tibet is often called. Hint: the answer is beneath a map.

ah, well...slowly, to be honest. I'm just a tiny ways into the 2nd one...I will persevere, though! :)
on a related note, I just finished the second book of the game of thrones series and DID have book 3 spoiled in a big way while trying to discuss book 2...sucked. :(
My 'Who dun it' or rather 'who's Rumpie?' conspiracy just got a weird twist...:/

Yep...see Rumpie did not know if Kirby was male or female and that kinda kills all the theories that we have been havng about the disappearance of Jay and the appearence of Rumpie....although this could be a stray lead...hmmmm....
Again, just musing Rumpie, not meaning to offend you in any way:)
Mod
Nope...i can't see anything...in the UK?
