AD&D Session 8 - Intrigue in the Noble District: The Tri-Spires Encounter

9th Brussendar 835 PD
The party ventures into the noble district to explore the Tri-Spires. They first encounter a temporarily closed casino, which reopens after a brief guard departure. A visit to the magic school in the next tower leads to a suggestion for a member to attend a druidic school instead. Koro, following a hunch, trails two well-dressed individuals leaving the magic school, causing a temporary split in the group.
They regroup at the astrology tower, where a tour guide named Arthur is hired for a district tour. An unexpected checkpoint upon exit, manned by a high-ranking wizard and crown guards, suggests a search for something or someone. Ricochet faces a brief scrutiny for his bag of holding but is released.
Back at the inn, Koro discovers her gold stolen, replaced with a mysterious coin marked with 'S', potentially linked to the Delon Forebow murder case. The group debates the coin's significance and the theory of unwitting smuggling, with some skepticism. The day ends with each member retiring, pondering the day's enigmatic events.
