"Hot d**n, how will I strengthen my position if he reads everything I do? And I cannot recover the files with them looking over my shoulders...bah!"
Logan frowns for a moment and then brightens
"Somebody needs to go with Arcata. And I'm sure you know that knowing the language isn't enough to dig up something important in the library. I'm a professional in this.
Anyhow, if Hinjo can give us quick summary of things he found out and things he read, we can stay and research some more and he can escort Arcata.
I don't mean an insult, Arcata, if you want to go alone or postpone the trip to marketplace that's fine. I don't think we should go alone or even separate anymore.
Thinking about it, we should give clerks here interesting leads to follow for us and we should see to marketplace. When we return we can read what they find."

At the Athenaeum
Hinjo says "Thank you Wilbur and Logan for your offers. There are numerous scrolls and materials, I fear I have only scratched the surface. It is organized by god, with emphasis on rituals, sacrifices, divinations, church hierarchy, and specific religious stories. Tell me which gods and sections you wish to start with and I can direct you to the texts that are not in imperial common.
I have the appointment with Loremaster Milos later today, so I do not think it wise for me to leave, though I do not wish Arcata to go unescorted if you think there is danger. If one or some or all of you wish to accompany me to the meeting or offer advice on how to approach the Athenaeum second in command I would appreciate it. I am a little uncertain on how to proceed with him, he was the one who ordered Egil not to take any more steps himself in investigating Lucius' disappearance. I don't want to mention Egil's involvement at all. I was planning on saying that Lucius had previously been aiding me on doing Uraqi research and want to follow up with him."

"I agree we should attend that meeting, maybe with Arcata leading the talk. We could request access to their restricted collection. There will be much more information, but most of it will be deemed dangerous so we may need to prove worthy of such access.
In the meantime, let's find out as much as we can. Erm, what exactly were you looking for, Hinjo?
Unless, you all agree we should look at the market first."
Logan seems positively upbeat about prospect of staying and this last sentence comes out little bit subdued. He is ready to follow the team, but is obviously more then ready to loose himself among books.
[sblock=For DM]
Logan will attempt to find any info about artifacts with properties he
mentioned before, while looking for rituals and different religious practices. If some obscure material has such properties it will help as he can focus his search (Knowledge(Exotic Materials)
He is little bit in hurry to find out something that will (however tenously) support his story. Even when proved false he can say that his research led him astray.

"I have studied history, religion, the planes and thinks the world wants to be forgotten. And I'm able to decipher. Perhaps you should go. Or is there something else?" Wilbur answers, looking absent minded and concentrated at once.

"Ah come on, nothings gonna bit unless yur into that. Bruises and broken bones are a different subject, but uh dont say anything to offend em and you should be good." says Dogrynn trying to talk his new friend into chatting up the patrons of the rough and tumble establishment.

Legend
Doggrynn begins in his endeavors with the locals and Anton notes the sibbecai seems to have an almost inborn knack for starting off gossip among the sailors and laborers, though it gets marred by his lack of social interaction timing. His grating bark of a laugh comes out at the wrong time and a bit overly loudly.
In any case Dogrynn is getting a little scuttlebutt on the latest bodies hauled in around the docks, including that of a big orc and a young man, when a four foot tall dwarven woman with brown hair cuts off a grumbling sailor's rambling tale abruptly and comes up behind him. Blue eyes and flat brown hair mark the woman who seems to match Dogrynn's social graces as she cuts right into his conversation. "Dogrynn, your twelve silver skulls on tab is coming due. You're mangy hide is back here so tell me that means you're ready to pay up." The numerous missing front teeth leaves little doubt, this is Dakarta, the proprietess of the broken mug. According to the tales Doggryn has heard she was campaigning against renegade goblins on the continent before he was born.

"Ah well you see Dakarta, thing is um well I'm looking for some one. Knew your place was the best for information you see. And well let me check." he digs into his coin pouch thats tucked down his pants and comes up with a couple of coins, both gold. "It looks like I might just have somethin. And hey enough for a pint for my friends and I." While he'd normally have tried to blow her off or start a fight with the guy next to him just to get out of paying his tab, Dogrynn didn't have any leads till this story about the young guy pulled from the river. Might be worth sticking around rather than getting tossed out at the moment. "But don't go telling no one I paid up or a few other barkeeps are gonna be after me again." he says with a hyena-like laugh.
