Now I know this may cost me a bit of business, but I wonder if ye have heard of the Indecipherable Scroll? It's an Inn in the Cluster, and the owner, one Professor Wilmina Gertz. She be a professor at the Freeport Institute, but runs that shop on the side. I do some small amount of business with her, and she often has some small potions and occasionally a scroll or two for sale. Now she does not advertise these items but she will sell them to those she knows. I can introduce ye to her if you would like and you might be able to get a few extra items from her."Torren knows a little of the shop, but had always heard that it is just a bit of a quirky inn where students from the Institute and other intellectuals go to listen to poetry readings, bardic performances of epic tales, and the like. A short time later, Black Jack notices that Captain Thomas Horngold comes down from upstairs and takes a table not far from where the party is sitting… there are a few whispers among the patrons around the party's tables, it seems that the Captain has something of a 'rogues' reputation and some are commenting on who will be his conquest while he is in port this time.  Also at about this time, a finely dressed man and five, not so finely dressed large rough looking men enter the lobby from the Verandah and starts shouting for Bobbin and where his wife is! "Bobbin Brandydale! Where in the Abyss are ye hiding little man! My wife is here and I demand that you tell me where she is this instant!" Bobbin and some of the hotels guards appear and start trying to calm the man, who is red-faced with rage. Most people sitting in the dinning area and the lobby are staring at this commotion. Kitsch notices that the man who was 'casing' out one of the dinners gets up and leaves the lobby, heading outside.</blockquote>
