The young woman allows herself to be led around thinking that Girri might know of a Cyphermage in the hall. She seems taken aback however once the Harrower asks for money; putting a little distance between them as she frowns with mild abhorrence. "Of course I went to the Cypher Lodge when I got here; I'm not a dolt! But I got turned away at the door right quick; the lot of em have been holed up in there ever since Blakely's Shadow* first appeared in the sky. Guy at the door said that they aren't accepting any visitors or applicants for the foreseeable future. I'm here at this... place... to look for individual Order members so I can try talking one of em into taking me on as an apprentice. I barely had the money to pay the damned entry fee; I sure as hells don't have five gold to spare for you. So thanks, but no thanks." The woman seems about to turn away from Girri.
* A local fancyboy named Argentus Blakely supposedly predicted the existence of an "atmospheric shadow" in the sky and so it was named after him when it eventually became visible above the city. Story is that he magically flew up to investigate it awhile back and reported it to be strangely cold, but that it seemed no different than a regular cloud—apart from its unusual color.
