## Summary

**SATURDAY, OCTOBER 6, 995:** With the party now split into several groups, Mace continued to search the party for the other members of the group before being intercepted by Rithim, the Human stage performer, who immediately asked her if her friend Lamhach was around. Unable to confirm this, Mace told him she might be before he ran off to go find her. Meanwhile, Eren, who had begun to realize the consequences of his "scene", decided to begin his solitary walk back to the dormitories.

After some time, Lamhach was finally intercepted by Rithim, who despite having never seen his sister's new form, immediately recognized Lamhach as his younger sister Amhran. He immediately gushed at her, incredibly excited to see his family and enthused that she had clearly found her way to Squidsiddie in the same way that he and their brother had. Giving Lamhach little time to explain, Rithim told her all about his life here, including his planned engagement (a chosen engagement, *not* a betrothment) to his girlfriend Rainni, his attendance with her at the University, the wonders of restaurants, and his living arrangements with their eldest brother, Galvin, who also lived in the city. Clearly overwhelmed by all of this, Lamhach expressed that she was also happy to see him but that she had something to do, prompting Rithim to offer for them to meet again some other time and claiming that he would find her on campus somewhere.

Elsewhere, Ishim found Palmer while searching for Snipe, and upon entering the kitchen to continue the search, was immediately roped into a conversation with Gadway Meadglider, his friend, who was busy showing off his newest brew to several other partygoers in the kitchen. Snipe returned from its larder realm to join the trio as Ishim was further talked at by Gadway, unable to break off the conversation. Luckily, Palmer was able to convince Gadway to stop talking to Ishim and instead, at Ishim's suggestion, join them in the main room to present his "Golden Worm Gaffer" to the masses of the party and impress them. Convinced by his friend Ishim, Gadway, Ishim, and Palmer began to head towards the main room, while Guttersnipe had already managed to sneak by Mace and proceed upstairs, being briefly stopped by a very drunk man who complimented its feathers.

Having counted five minutes to herself, Mace stepped outside to prepare to leave with the carriage before noticing that Eren had disappeared from the front steps. She proceeded to the carriage after a brief search for him, awaiting any of the group members who were expecting to return home with her. Lamhach, after her chance encounter with her brother, resolved to return to Jesper and confront him with "the truth" of her race. She met with him as Ishim, Gadway, and Palmer, the last of whom was clearly upset by seeing Lamhach and Jesper together, passed by and into the main room to create a distraction for Ishim to get upstairs. Arriving in the main room, Ishim proudly announced to the group that he had found a drink to rival his own concoction, causing a large crowd of people to gather around Gadway and his mead barrel, and allowing Ishim to escape upstairs without being spotted by Mace, who had conveniently left moments before.

Ishim soon stumbled upon Guttersnipe, who had found an office with a safe whose door was guarded by a very drunk man named Griffith. The two awkwardly extracted the location of a bathroom from the door guard and went inside to plan to steel the house's deed, eventually deciding that Ishim would attempt to bend the rules of one of his magical spells to get Guttersnipe inside the office undetected. Conjuring up a rope trick, Guttersnipe climbed inside as Ishim pulled the rope like a strange invisible balloon to the confused Griffith, convincing the drunkard to open the door to the office and tossing the rope inside the room, damaging Guttersnipe in the process as the spell's rules were bent and its effect became unstable. Luckily, Guttersnipe survived the entry and found the code to the safe tucked away in a nearby cabinet: 2 - 5 - 6 - 4. Opening up the safe, he found the deed to 715 Creeks, as well as a gold bar, several other documents, a little silver bell, and a gnomeball. Seizing the deed, gold bar, and gnomeball, Guttersnipe prepared to escape while Ishim waited outside near Griffith.

Motivated by Eren's tip-off, Officers Muldoon and Sanders arrived on the scene, with Muldoon quickly exiting the gear-carriage and rushing to the door, and Sanders following leisurely behind him, even stopping to say good evening to Mace, who was sat in the group's gear-carriage ready to drive away. As Muldoon approached the door, inside the house Lamhach and Jesper's conversation grew more intense as Lamhach struggled to find the words to say to her and Jesper, misinterpreting what she was saying, attempted to ask her on a date. Before Lamhach could respond, the door burst open and a booming voice shouted "Nobody move!" from the open doorway. Lamhach shot her hands up in the air as she looked to see Officer Muldoon in the main room, before her attention was drawn to another shout of "What the fuck!?" from behind the curtain in Carlin's gambling room. She stared at the curtain for a moment before hearing the whizz of a flying tankard shoot through the air and make contact with Jesper's head, sending him careening to the ground. Turning down to Jesper and then once more back to the curtain, Lamhach saw Palmer standing by the curtain next to Carlin, now soaking in ale. Palmer immediately shouted out to Jesper's friends, lying that Carlin had just thrown the tankard at him, prompting Grash and Corwin to jump Carlin, Carlin's guards to join the fray, Officer Muldoon to attempt an arrest on *all* of them (ignoring Lamhach's plea for him to help the dazed and prone Jesper), and Palmer to rush to the back door, motioning Lamhach to follow him.
