Final words...

" Hold on a moment, I will try to get us some seats on the mail carrier if I can, " says Bhalag, scanning the station.

With what skills are available to him, he attempts to find or negotiate for seats on the mail run.

(Gather Informations: 13, Diplomacies: 13, Bluffs: 16, Success: Priceless)
 


( Changeling --> Social Intuition --> Reduced Times For Gather Information (though maybe it was x10 minutes rather than x1 minute versus x1 hour...) In any case, diplomacy and bluff are still good. )
 


Bharag's investigations start to bear fruit rapidly.
The first thing everyone hastens to assure him of is that there's no truth to the rumor that a zealot cleric of the Silver Flame is coming to Terminus station. He may have flung a skycab driver who tried to cheat him on a fair to his death on one of the pointiest buildings in Sharn, then destroyed the skycab in a ball of fire, from whence he was rescued by a spear carrying angel who shoots black fire from her hands, but the watch is carefully patrolling Terminus station. Heck, a patrol comes here and starts checking papers nearly every fifteen minutes!

There are two places available on the roof of the mail carriage, no problem. One gold each, bring your own rain gear.
Fortunately, Sharn is nearly tropical, so riding on the roof isn't cold. But it may be wet and it will be buggy.
Bharag's lie about a cousin dying in First tower shames one middle-aged gnome into giving up his inside seat ticket. Full of sympathy for Bharag, a stranger in a strange land, he hands him his business card and encourages you to call on him if you need any help managing legal matters.
A woman in a veil overhears you, looks at you oddly, and goes back to scanning the room as though looking for someone.

Bharag, make a Spot check
 



Bhalag approaches the veiled woman and engages in some idle chatter. He attempts to get a sense of her...

Smiling, he says, " Hello there! How are you doing today? Looking to go for a nice, relaxing ride on the through the countryside? Where are you headed? "

( Sense Motive is 16. )
 

As Bharag comes closer, he can see a skull tattoo through the veil.
It looks like the woman from the library, though honestly all skull-tattooed women look pretty much alike.
The woman looks at you disdainfully and turns away.
