Re: Chapter 10: Cabal of the Coiling Serpent
Galadel inquires with his contacts at the Wizards Guild hoping to glean any pertinent information about the temple attack. The presence of a sorcerer in the troglodytes' ranks is of concern, particularly if there is a renegade high level wizard operating within the city, but nobody knows anything more about the matter. Troglodytes are not known to have faculty with arcane magic, so it begs the question as to how has enjoined their cause?
As to the stench, spells such as Gust of Wind might be useful, a guild member offers. That won't neutralize the stench, but it might direct it elsewhere?
As to the Slithering Overlord. This name is unknown. Perhaps a demon of some sort, one of them suggests, or a High Priestess of a cult of Zehir?
Galadel finds scant mention of the Order of the Invincible Sun in the library, save for what is already known. The battle against the naga is too recent to turn up anything. Digging through the library, Galadel finds a brief mention of a naga dwelling in a cave within the Cliffs of Abandon, backing up information they have previously heard.
Finally, when Galadel approaches Talanyn, the Keeper of Lore about the possibility for trading scrolls for illusionist scrolls, Talanyn reminds Galadel of Guild Rules and states he has a right to sell any scrolls to the guild for established rates, and he can then use these proceeds to purchase other scrolls.
