Secret and Clues

Check off when revealed.

• [ ] Rival Party
  • [ ] They were sent to retrieve a marble figurine of an elephant from a shop in the Suncut Bazaar but it was gone when they got there.
    • [ ] The figurine was stolen from the Allegiance of Allsight.
    • [ ] The figurine was first discovered in Cael Morrow.
  • [ ] They were sent to discover a possible second entrance point into Cael Morrow in the River District.
    • [ ] The entrance is rumored to be in the oasis (Life Dome). This is false and was planted by a spy within the Allegiance.
    • [ ] From Carliale Kroogan (person who runs the Life Dome) they found out that if you go deep enough it offshoots into a bunch of maze like caverns.
    • [ ] There is no know connection from the Life Dome to Cael Morrow but Cael Morrow is located in similar caverns at a similar depth.
    • [ ] Relics from Cael Morrow indicate it was the site of a pre-Calamity society originally built above the water.
    • [ ] Carliale thinks natural tectonic shifting caused the city to slip beneath the surface, but the fluctuation of the water level in the caverns seems to defy explanation.
    • [ ] The Life Dome regulates the water flow from the spring to the canals with a combination of engineering and enchantment.
    • [ ] The rivals were ambushed by two invisible stalkers sent by either the Consortium or the Sentinels of Memory
  • [ ] They have officially joined the Allegiance (badges, outfits, and lodging)
  • [ ] Waiting to hear back from Prolix for more info about ruidium.
