Half-orc fighter, half-elf wizard, and halfling rogue.In this session, they were summoned to the curio shop of an unsavory mage that the rogue had done business with in the past. The mage is part of the Arcane Brotherhood. He tells them that the wizard will soon be summoned to a meeting by his mentor. There, the mentor will ask them to enter an abandoned scriptorium and recover a magic stone containing a record of every tome that ever passed through the scriptorium. The mage gives them a counterfeit stone to give to the mentor. He wants the real stone for himself. The PCs agree to take the job and haggle until they get their asking price.Leaving the curio shop, the PCs spot a tail -- a gazer in service to the Xanathar.Soon, they are summoned by the wizard's mentor, an instructor at Blackstaff Tower. The PCs spill the beans about the double cross planned by the Arcane Brotherhood. The mentor begins work on a counterfeit of the counterfeit to pass off to the unsavory mage. The PCs then travel to the scriptorium.But this isn't just any scriptorium. It's the place where the wizard's parents once worked. The place where they died. Slain in front of him by a rogue mind flayer in service to the Xanathar. If the wizard can find the magic stone, he might be one step closer to understanding why his parents were killed.The PCs enter the abandoned scriptorium. Magical lights flicker to life and illuminate the structure. Exploring the musty stacks, the PCs are attacked by a pair of will-o-wisps. The will-o-wisps fall quickly to the wizard's magic missiles...but now he's running perilously low on spell slots.Next session: Ambushed by the Xanathar Guild!</blockquote>
