Niamh uses locate object to locate a letter we send to the guy we're trying to find's diplomat's pouch

We go to the Temple district, better quality place and seems like it was never hit by the disaster in the other places, there's a small square that is obliterated though, lots of churches for demons but mostly for Orcus, no devil worship

While Niamh, Arthur, and Gek are explaining how you don't have to accept apologies to Gek, dudes come

The dudes are in a kind of procession kind of an escort and everyone in the market goes quiet, people seem to respect them but they are not afraid of them but are slightly unsettled

The dudes are House Shrike, they want us be "friends" with them, they don't seem to recognise Niamh Taron as a name or don't visibly freak out at it, we were talking to Nefer-u-sebek (they/them) native to this area but they have some Shrike blood, not all members of House Shrike are vampires

Gostoc comes back and tells us he has a way to get info now ie. a girl with blue tattoos on her face and kinda pointy ears, she's not fully shad-arkai, we tell them we want info on where the guy is, what he's been doing, who talking to, why he'd stop talking with his boss etc. , the person who will do the info finding is Tahirah, she's going to find him then we'll decide what to do next

We text the annoying dude and use locate object but can't locate it- the letter didn't send- he proabaly had his pouch off or something

Fettered Ward in a house Niamh turns into a spider and goes into a room and there's a big time dead body, magic circle that we have no idea what it, doesn't seem to be a teleport circle that we've seen before or anything we've seen before for that matter, the dead person has a scroll in their hand we take it- Tahirah says its written in Infernal which she's guessing is related to the cult being here, we write down some of the script of the magic circle
Sakata replies to our earlier text- Apologies for the delay I was busy, the deathless watch has been irritating to work around, I am safe and not in danger, I'm doing my work, if you draw more attention to me the more I will be in danger, we text him back and locate object on it and he's below us in the basement of the building we've in
