Your small group heads off through the city, taking in the sights as you go. Fortunately, it's only a short walk through Dromus from the Orrery, and you soon approach the Order's tower, a fantastic structure fronted entirely in tinted windows of various shapes and colors. Around the base of the Tower unlicensed gutter wizards hawk their wares - shouts extolling the efficacy of strenth potions and carefully-scribed genuine handwritten fireball scrolls.
By contrast, the tower itself seems to preside over a pool of relative silence, enforced by the warning gazes of the two guards stationed at the wide double doors. They are dressed in heavy red-enameled armor covered with an intricate tracery of runes (which may or may not actually do anything). At your approach, they level their gazes at you simultaneously, expecting some sort of greeting before you come any closer.
{OOC: Please check out the OOC thread. I'm trolling for suggestions.

Skaith looks to the gnomes as if he had expected on of them to do the talking - now that he sees that this is not the case, he sighs slightly...
He then looks to the guards and bows to them. "Greetings, honored protectors of the Order's Tower. I come seeking an audience with Rr'tashk, wizened sage and wizard of Dromus."

The guard looks you over and grunts. "I'm going to have to see two forms of picture ID and an application for an registration form for an appointment, sir." He sighs with boredom.
Just at that moment, a short humanoid figure bustles up, surrounded by a dancing cloud of dust, hacking and coughing. "Let me by, let me by," comes a (relatively) stentorian voice from inside the cloud. The guards shy away from the diminuitive figure, waving the dust away from themselves. He turns toward your group and peers out of the dust cloud; evidently it obscures his vision as much as yours. "Eh? Is that you guys? You with me? Well?"
Skaith:
[sblock]Darting around the dust cloud like an attentive humming bird there appears to be... A scrying sensor? It appears distinctly, a light-yellow disk vaguely reminding you of a jaundiced and segmented eye.[/sblock]

Skaith replies quickly, "O...o, yes, Master! I am sorry - we had hoped to arrive here before you..." The pale man bows as if in apology and then falls in line with the speaking cloud, subtly motioning with his eyes for the others to do the same. "Please forgive me Master, that we were not able to complete our assigned task for you before your arrival. I am sure that Master Rr'tashk will still be most interested to see you..."

That's gonna be a Bluff check, cap'n! I'd roll it for you, but I can't find your character sheet in my Rogue's Gallery. Please post it, and then I'll finish this up. Of course, Keys or Tyndra can also cut in...
