They're also alarmed at the extent of her network of mind-controlled citizens, thankful that the Lyceum can start to undo her work. She also discloses the existence of a Ragesian Teleporation Beacon within the city, but her orders render it impossible for her to share anything about their identities or locations. As they turn to leave, she beckons the priest to the cell, and quietly thanks him for the mercy they've extended, swearing an oath to aid them in the future if they call upon her, to repay her debt. He is notably troubled by the idea of soliciting help from devils, and keeps the information secret for now. As they leave, Crystin has a sudden, disorienting vision of an eagle in the storm, somewhere to the west.As the official War Council meeting is still two days off, they take some time to visit the Wayfarer's Theater at the behest of Tiljann.  There, they meet a boastful, egotistical braggart in Giorgio, and the much more reserved and elegant Sheena Larkins.  Ushered into the Wayfarer's Theater for auditions, they're both amazed and disturbed at the seemingly impossible interior dimensions of the vessel, rationing that it must somehow be an extradimensional space.  The Bard starts off with some rather offputting comedic routines, but swiftly shifts into a dramatic monologue that stuns those present with its eloquence.  Giorgio insults his appearance and early demeanor, but Sheena quickly assures him that his talents could definitely be put to use.  Tiljann takes the stage, but is wracked with stage fright when trying to sing the Song of Forms.  Nevertheless, Sheena sees promise in her, and promises to help her find her way.  The Barbarian even decides to participate, attempting to parlay his athletic prowess into a stage presence, performing an artistic interpretation of his weapon training drills on stage.  It goes over quite well, while Giorgio scoffs at the unconventional presentation.  When the bard tries to object, the Wayfarer suggests that he stay in his seat and watch quietly for the rest of the event... something that, on a failed save, he is grudgingly forced to do.At the end of the day, there are a few offers made to join the production, while the rest of the group considers reports of dangers in the swamplands, for the remainder of the day...</blockquote>
