Miss Irene Adler, if you please, though I've been told I'm known as "The Woman", as well. Contrary to the apparently popular belief, no, I'm not dead. It will take more than an arrogant fool and poorly laced tea to trick me. And don't act so surprised, you would have missed me if I was really gone. I like to travel, and love the opera. Do come by to talk. I love a good cup of tea, and I don't bite. Hard.
