B6: The Veiled Society - IC

Food for sale is fairly easy to find, though in this neighborhood, its quality often leaves much to be desired. Not surprisingly, though, semi-fresh fish is available here and it forms the basis of a satisfying meal.

Finding your way back to the senator's house is a bit more confusing in the twisting, often unmarked streets of the city. Eventually, after a long and tiring walk and getting sometimes conflicting directions at various points, you do find it.

"Well, no sense wasting any more time," says Celythia, moving up to the front door and pounding on it with her fist.

Caridoc watches the group's back all the way to the Torenescu residence. Once there he continues to keep a good lookout.

The door opens and a guard opens it, his sword drawn. He looks over the party. "Good evening. Ah yes, Torenescu's hired guards. What can I do for you?"

The door opens and a guard opens it, his sword drawn. He looks over the party. "Good evening. Ah yes, Torenescu's hired guards. What can I do for you?"

"We were hoping to speak to the good Master Torenescu on a matter of some urgency," Barek responds.

"Master Torenescu has concluded his visit here with Senator Eipistlo" the guard replies. "I trust you've tried his own house already?"

When informed otherwise, the guard sighs and says "New in town, eh? Three blocks that way, then turn left. Second house on the left."

When the party reaches Torenescu's house - which is about as big as the Senator's - and knocks there, an armed guard answers the door.

"Good evening. What do you want?" he asks.

When you ask to speak to Torenescu he informs you "Master Torenescu is out for the evening. If you leave a message, I'll make sure he gets it upon his return."

Barek looks to the others a moment for objections, and assuming there are none, says to Torenescu's guard, "You can let the Senator know that we expect to see his friends with the interesting fashion sense tonight at the Blue Water Mead Hall, and we thought he might like to join the celebration we have planned."

Celythia simply shakes her head. Things were never easy in this city.

"Very well, I'll tell him that" the guard replies, and shuts the door.

"Well, that accomplished little to nothing," says the elf maid. "It looks like we are on our own for this one."
