Wensa snatches her hand back as the man mentions buying her ring. "Hammer-all not take ring. Ring keep Wensa safe!" As Khammeral goes on Wensa puts on an angry face. "Wensa want magic ring! Ja...lly Billy win gold. Lots gold. Man sell Billy magic ring. Billy give ring to Wensa!"
Gizzmo finagles Charlotte into his pant pocket with the hole. Gizzmo shakes his leg and Charlotte falls out of the leg of the pants onto it's back. The clockwork legs work to right itself before doing a few circles to get its bearings. The cases are abjuration magic and the painting appears conjuration magic.
Khammeral watches as Skeekbad dirties the clean glass cases. Each time she leaves a display case dirtied. Khammeral removes his wand and casts prestidigitation as soon as Skeekbad moves to another. He does this simultaneously while trying to sell goods to Wensa.
Khammeral raises an eyebrow to Wensa and Jallmur. "I think I know exactly what you're looking for." He replaces the signet ring into the case and removes the other. "I can not believe I did not see it before with you two." Khammeral shows you two the second ring. This one is a gold color with a clear diamond mounted to the of the ring. He reaches over the counter and holds it out for you two to see. Another bolt launches from the wand to clean a Skeekbad mess. "The only magic you two need is love, which it appears you have in spades. This is a big step in life. This is a very nice piece and not too expensive. You seem like good kids, how about 100 gold. I've been hanging onto this for a while for the right couple."

Gizzmo
Gizzmo is going to go up the stairs to the second level while they are ring shopping. He is going to have Charlotte climb the wall and onto the magical portrait.
Gizzmo also looks around on the second floor for anything interesting. (Using Lenses) Perception 18

Give me a stealth check for Charlotte. Use the spider stats for her.

Wensa
Wensa continues her partial playacting as she descends the stairs to the fountain. About half way down she drops any pretext and scampers the rest of the way to the fountain. She searches all around the fountain and statue for anything that seems important, especially what the drain for the fountain is like.

Pulling a caltrop from her pack Wensa places it in the circular indentation at the front of the fountain basin. Quickly darting back as far as she can she watches to see if anything happens.

The indention sits at about a 45-degree angle. Nothing happens besides the caltrops falling to the ground.
Charlotte does her it's bitsy creeping down the wall.

Khammeral notices the spider nosily making its way toward the frame. A bolt of blue energy strikes Charlotte, instantly stopping her in her tracks. "I must ask you not to mess with the painting. It is a very rare and expensive piece. Thank you."

Skeekbad
Not seeing anything that she cares about, Skeekbad runs back down the stairs to join Wensa who is playing in the fountain. She trips and tumbles down the last few steps, then shakes, mud splattering lightly over everything. She dives into the fountain, and splashes around noisily again before taking a longer look at the unknown goddess figure. Abruptly, she leaps out of the fountain again and runs back up to Khammeral putting muddy palms on the case in front of him.
"What goddess is on your fountain? Skeekbad demands to know!"
Cringing as she does so Wensa sticks her arm in the water and pulls the plug on the fountain.
The mud and grime washes off of your arm. You see the dirt swirl in the water as the pool drains itself. The water finishes draining, leaving an empty pool and a few low-value coins on the slate basin. You could take the coins, but they are in a fountain depicting a goddess.
Gizzmo takes no notice but mentally commands Charlotte to return to him.
He asks Khammeral "What is that painting? It looks to be very unique!"
"That painting is called Grove of the Unicorns. No doubt you saw the fountain when you came in. That is Mielikki herself, a goddess of nature. She is also known as the forest queen. Not many wizards follow a goddess of nature, but I am drawn to worship her."

You come in just as Khammeral is explaining who the fountain is. Khammeral seems to have no issue speaking of the goddess.
Making as little noise as possible and sparing only a brief glance for the statue Wensa collects up as many coins as she can find and pockets them away.
"Is the painting for sale? Do you have any books on Mielikki?"
Persuasion: 17
Khammeral will give you a bit of a chuckle. "Oh no. This is not for sale. I can not part with such a piece of art. As far as books on the goddess, I do not have any here. You may want to locate a temple of Mielikki. There are none here in the city, but can be found outside of Waterdeep." Khammeral will pull out a pocket watch and check the time. "Is there anything more I can help you with? I am sorry for the inconvenience, but I must close shop to take my lunch. There is a nice little place a few blocks away that has the most delicious pies."
Skeekbad, hearing that there is pie to be had, runs down to the door and waits for someone to open it, looking back between Wensa, Khammeral, and the door.

”Love? Love?!? Love!!! Wensa want magic ring not dumb love magic!” Wensa walks back towards the stairs making wretching noises as she goes.
(Do the stairs lead further up at all? Or does it look like there might be more rooms to this shop?)
Give me a stealth check for Charlotte. Use the spider stats for her.
"Well, I didn't mean to upset you. Just thought I saw something between the two of you."
No more stairs. Just the one set between the two floors. There are no more rooms here.

16 : Not sure what check you want Investigation is +1 and Perception is +6
(Also I know it was a while ago but did Wensa feel as though the shop keep was lying when he said he had no magic rings? Insight : 14)
The wizard continues to speak with Jallmur as you leave. Once at the fountain, you see there is a plug in the water in front of the statue.
You did not get the feeling he was lying to you about having any magic rings for sale.

"Piiiiieeeeeeeeeeeee! Wensa loves pie! Goblins go with Hammer get pies! PIE!" Wensa starts dancing around the fountain singing.
Gizzmo
Gizzmo exits the shop but leaves behind the fountain so she can explore while he is gone.
He waits outside across the street torn between getting pie and staying behind to look for the key to the fountain.

Skeekbad, hearing that there is pie to be had, runs down to the door and waits for someone to open it, looking back between Wensa, Khammeral, and the door.
