3:30pm Heading out from the KAAHRP Anthropology Office you decide to give a visit to Veia Linory at the Seldarine Hotel to see if he has any insights into Gesper's disappearance.   After being stopped briefly by the hotel clerk you make your way to Linory's room. Moritz speaks through the door and gives permission to talk to Linory, who is thrilled to hear from you. He tells you that Gesper had spoken of being interested in trying some mind altering substances and that he might be wandering near the bars by the cliffside. Gesper was wearing a bright orange tunic and holding a satchel and a coin pouch, stolen from Moritz. Odi talks them into letting him look through Gesper's room for a moment and manages to find a scrap of what looks like a promo for an event. Linory asks that before you leave Crandlewood that you stop by to say goodbye.   Heading into the city center you find a board of flyers and find a paper that matches the scrap that Odi found, it is for an "All Aigrei Dance at the The Corner House . You decide to head down and get a room at the inn in order to rest, however before you do, you remember that you know the location of Daylor Kenezzar 's house which is conveniently in the same direction within the The Conclave district.   Ioanna and Firn stay behind in an alleyway while the rest of the group continues up to see Daylor. Ioanna summons Tundi to fly up and investigate the murder of crows. The rest of the group knocks on Daylor's door and immediately warns him to look after Iago tonight after the Aggro fight. Daylor mentions that Iago's trainer will be at the game as well as, an assistant from the Conclave, and lastely Rasmus Vasa .   As this is happening, Tundi joins the flock above, and while Ioanna isn't able to view through her eyes, she quickly finds out that Tundi's path is cut short. Tundi's been killed.   The group heads down to The Corner House , straight up to the inn at the top of the building. You encounter the old man at the front desk of the inn and breeze past him after you spot Gesper's name in the ledger on his desk and get his room number. You find a leather satchel in the room and traces of a liquid you are able to identify as sap , as well as what looks like fresh vomit, which is still warm. You all rush up to the rooftop.   On the roof you see a figure with platnum blond hair wavering by the edge. Firn and Odi rush in, grabbing him by the tunic and throwing him backwards. It's Gesper, and he's very intoxicated. You take him back down to the hotel room and lay him down, to which he immediately throws up. As you talk, debating what to do you notice that Gesper seems terrified, and seems to think you're Dragonborn. Odi casts sleep on him.   You rest there for a bit, and Gesper asks where "his guy" went. You find out he's talking about the drug dealer who gave him sap, a human with black hair and sharp cheekbones. He calls him "Mr. FunStory", who dropped Gesper off at the inn and said he'd be back later. You try your best to disguise Gesper, making his hair dirty and covering him with a poncho, and hiding his ears.   On your way back, Odi hears a skittering from within the jar in his sack. A voice which Odi has never heard before echoes through his head.   Hungry   Odi thinks back to the voice. "What do you want?"   Meat   Odi grabs some kababs from a nearby street stand.   You return to the Seldarine Hotel and bring Gesper in. Moritz and Linory are shocked and thankful to you and Linory promises to be nice to him.     Odi goes to the bathroom and carefully unscrews the jar, revealing a Pseudodragon . You ask for its name and it responds.   ...I am Jar
