He was not sure if the girl was an imposter or not but it was worth checking out. The party contemplated what their next moves should be as it approached two hours after midnight. Several party members discussed attempting to reveal the imposter at the party tomorrow, however, it was soon decided that attempting to sneak into the Nomarch’s compound under the guise of dark might be the best approach. In the mist of the talk, Alan, made a startling revelation, that his name was not Alynn, but Jalentriel. He also told the party that he was full elf, and not half. This caught the attention of the party, and they agreed to bring this up after they solve their current dilemma.As the remaining party attempted to break into the compound, Rahotep was to go to see Madam Bianca. She had not seen him before and had no knowledge that he was associated with the party. It was hopes that he would be able to extract the information from her.Quarta Set was a temple city, and there is a stern curfew at night. The party (except Rahotep) exited the pyramid through the ventilation and made their way a few blocks to the Nomarch’s compound. The first plan was to see if Rykio could jump onto the roof of the compound from another building. After scaling up to a nearby building and making his way as close as he could to the Nomarch’s compound, he realized that the distance was too great, but, as he headed back down, he was quickly spotted by one of the residence of the small two story home in which he stood atop of. The City militia quickly apprehended Rykio whom went with them without resistance. He was quickly apprehended and jailed. The militia accused Rykio of being a militiaman, but could not figure out why he was scaling buildings in the middle of the night. However, it Rykio quickly convinced the men that he had been drinking (which was confirmed by two guards at the pyramid city whom had earlier brought the party some wine). The militiamen took into account Rykio’s actions in rescuing princess Alexandria, and decided to let him sleep off his over drinking in his cell.Using Rykio’s arrest as a distraction and after several minutes of scouting, the party felt good enough to attempt the break in again. This time Nikylik made Rin invisible and she leaved over the fence and scaled the wall. However, anti-magic fields surrounding the Nomarch’s compound disabled the spell making Rin, unknowingly, visible. She used a spiderclimb potion provided by Jalentriel, top quickly scale the building. Assuming she still had the guise of invisibility, she attempted to get the jump on the two guards posted on the roof, however, they quickly recognized her and a small scuffle began. As Rin knocked out one guard, the other ran and sounded the alarm, sending the same ringing pulse through the city that was heard when the Shadowdemon attacked. Rin leaped off of the building and made her way to where the party was gathered outside of the compound. Militiamen began to scour the area, looking for the attempted intruders. There were more militiamen in the area than other areas of the city, considering that the Pyramid and Kesmit (council) members’ homes are all in the High District. Brando’on and Jalentriel managed to hide down one of the alleys and behind some discarded crates. Nikylik found some trees near one of the areas and dodged militiamen surrounding the area. The remaining party attempted to dart back to the pyramid. All made it back, Except Vivian, whom was arrested by the militiamen. At the jail, Vivian, under the guise of her cloak (see beautiful Vivian in the character gallery, to flirt with the guards and explain how her and her friends over drank and did not know about all of the laws of the city. She feigned that she was just walking the streets when all of the loud noises started going off and she started to run. The militiamen, lusting her beauty, let her go with a stern warning to take her drunken friend. She was then escorted back to the jail with Rykio, whom still pretended to be drunk shouting out random words.</blockquote>
