6:00PM The party debates the merits of disguising Confidence as Gesper and travelling back to The Corner House since you learned that the killer was set to meet back up with Gesper later that night.   You head into Ursula's Bar & Inn . Back in your room, Odi introduces the group to Jar whom Odi identifies as a Pseudodragon.   The group exits through the back of the bar and you keep a lookout for anybody following. You make it to The Corner House which is slowly gaining [Aigrei patrons for the dance. You head up to the inn on the top floor and make camp in Gesper's room. Confidence disguises herself as Gesper while Odi, Imarra, and Ferron try to enter the dance to keep an eye on her while keeping their distance from the elves.   Back at the top floor, Firn hears a mysterious ticking noise coming from the room next door. She goes to investigate and finds a mechanical frog with lights coming from its eyes. Gesper! Gesper! It is time to meet! it says. Firn promptly throws the frog out a window as soon as it says I will self destruct in 10-   At the party a drunk looking young elf has stumbled up to the stage and gives a speech to the rest of the party on how disenfranchised their generation is, and how they're going to fight for their right to stay in Crandlewood. Ferron and Imarra get pushed out of the dance. Confidence is approached by an aigrei girl named Aisla who asks if she wants to take sap up on the rooftop.   Ioanna is at last able to summon Tundi who tells her that he was killed by a large metal owl.   Confidence heads to the roof and meets with Aisla who offers to take sap with her. Tundi, who is now riding on Confidence jumps at Aisla and forces her to drop her pipe, breaking it. Confidence says she has a pipe back in her room and the two walk back down the stairs, past the rest of the group moving to intervene.   As soon as Confidence and Aisla walk into Gesper's room the rest of the party storm the room. You learn that Aisla saw the man less than 30 minutes ago and that he threatened to kill her if she didn't deliver the drugs to Gesper.   Ferron stays to watch over Aisla and Jar while the rest of the party leaves to see if they can track down the dealer. Heading down to street Confidence wanders out, disguised as Gesper still and a voice beacons out to her. Confidence isn't able to see anyone and Ioanna sends Tundi out to investigate. Suddenly Tundi flies through the air as if it was kicked. Ioanna rushes in to try and grab whoever is invisible but finds herself pierced by a blade, but, she manages to get a hold of their clothes.   After a few chaotic attacks in confusion the invisibility is cut to reveal Tulio Fonstiwere . He fights with magic and casts out of a large hand cannon as well as from a mechanical owl which joins the fray from above. He gives you a good fight but you manage to team up to take him down and pin him to the ground without killing him.
