[calmness]

Greetings.

I know many of us searching for information that would help us succeed in this mission and some have already uncovered details and items that could be of use.

In an effort to consolidate and keep all the information gathered in one place, would others be amenable to share what you've already uncovered here? This way, more of us are able to be intentional in our hunt for more information about the Orb and situation here. Additionally, further discussions can be facilitated during the course of the Gala this evening.

I have information to share that I will add in as a follow up to my own message, for clearer organization. But first, I would also like to share that both my brother, Wangji, and I are able to create silencing paper talismans for those who may need them. These can be used to block all sound within a space from getting out or silencing an individual. It will be easier for one of us to share with other members of the Featherstone, but exchanges with members of other Families can be arranged at the Gala tonight or worked out afterwards for those interested.

[ooc note: please threadjack away, respond around to info that seems useful and share info all around!]

And the locations of the mines roughly correspond to the family's territories.

If we cannot find the key, I could try bespelling the door open? But given how common magic is here, it's almost certainly guarded against lesser spells, so it might not be easy.

It seems that Rosinante found the door and it seems the key is some sort of token.

It would be good to check what protections are on the door and in the area either way, as we would not want to approach it and trip any wards.

[bindsthedead]

I think he's talking about a different door- one that's halfway up the building, rather than at ground level like a mine entrance.

We're going to need to be subtle though- if it's halfway up the building, there will be no innocent explanation for what we're doing outside the door.

Although if there are multiple entrances... perhaps we can enter through one and draw them away from the other?

[calmness]

Ah, I did not realize.

I believe we have found additional information about other entrances into the mines and into the system. Though we will still need to be careful.
