"Ah," he says, after flicking through a few pages, "So, you would be Master de Marchant, I presume. Naomi's grandson?"
When Guilliame nods in reply, he pulls a quill out of an ink pot and makes two tiny ticks on one of the pages of the book.
Having made his marks, he says "And I'm, Jon Simms, Water Warden for this ward. It is nice to meet you."
He then looks to the door as two young Stemian women come through it. "Ah, and as the luck of Venuss would have it, here are two fine water carriers for you: Gal and Dot."
"Do you be a customer?" says one of the women in broken Sorendenese.
Guilliame nods, pulls out his hidden purse, and hands the two women a cub each [OOC: Already deducted from character sheet]. He then gives them directions to the shop, which they recognised almost immediately.
They then thank him and head over to where Simms' employee is already filling one of ceramic crocks from the large vat.
[OOC: Over to you in case you want to add anything here.]

Tyrus Mountson: Lvl 3 Dwarvish Bard; Waterdeep Campaign (Dragon Heist) Nanoc the Younger: Semi-retired Lvl 2 Rogue / Level 2 Barbarian Human; The Knuckle, Mror Holds, Ebberon. The Honourable Jaden Fellan: Level 3 Human Eldritch Knight; Band of Sunswall
AKA: Phillip Berrie: writer, editor and academic thrillseeker—a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
By this stage Guilliame will be casually checking whether he is followed mainly in the dodgy street of town. Mainly of interest on heading home rather than out.
As he approaches the School, Guilliame sees an unusual sight.
[OOC: At this point I need to find out whether Guilliame has the same gear on him as yesterday, or, if you want him to have different equipment, I want to know what they are. Should have asked this when he left home, but I forgot. Also, remember that carrying major weapons through this part of town is likely to attract unwanted attention from the guard.]

Not carrying anything except purse, no weapons of any kind except his sheer cunning and intellect (effectively unarmed).
[OOC: LOL!!]
Would Guiliiame be expected to take his spell book and/or paper and writing stuff. If so then that.
[OOC: Yes for what you wanted him to do.]
Guilliame is within sight of the entrance to the School of Occult Studies and is trying to blank his mind so that Master Minton, the gatekeeper of the school, won't have anything too interesting to hear in his thoughts.
Then the door of the school suddenly opens and a strange-looking woman in tanned leathers wearing a large dagger on her hip exits the compound in a hurry. Although no one follows her, Guilliame can hear the excited barking of the dog Master Minton has recently taken ownership of and keeps in his gatehouse quarters.
The woman is running in Guilliame's direction. What does he do?

AKA: Phillip Berrie: writer, editor and academic thrillseeker—a little knowledge is a dangerous thing.
The woman tries to veer around Guilliame when he steps into her path, and then she stops with a surprised look on her face.
"Guilliame!" she says, almost too fast for him to understand.
She has a tall, athletic build, caramel-coloured skin and green eyes on a broad face that is more handsome than pretty. But the most unusual aspect of this woman is that she has pointed ears sticking out from under her shoulder-length blonde hair.
She looks past him and says, "It's me Wamzut. Can't stop. I'll find you later. "
Then she ducks past Guilliame and continues to run up the street at speed.

Be confused for a bit and then go to the school. Try to think about improving casting of unseen servant spell on the way in.
[OOC: Make an Intelligence check (+2 bonus).]
Guilliame watches in confusion as the strange woman rushes away up the street. He then heads towards the School again all the while thinking about how to cast the Unseen Servant ritual so that that will be all that Master Minton will hear when he answers the door.
As he approaches the door, Minton's new guard dog, Bruxa, starts barking.
[OOC: Guilliame has met the young dog before, and while the dog is quite large, he is still young and his bark is definitely worse than his bite, at this point.]

Minton looks at Guilliame with surprise in his eyes, before saying, "That was the alfaren, Attina, the woman Wamzut's spirit now inhabits. She spoke with you, didn't she?"

All good. Head across to the school.
Saying goodbye in response to Simms' farewell, Guilliame heads out the door and continues on his way to the School of Occult Studies.
[OOC: Presuming he is still on the lookout for followers and potential waylayers, please make a Perception roll with Advantage.]

"Hello puppy." Call out "Master Minton, are you are right?"
Even as Guilliame starts to speak, the massive door of the School starts to open.
"Hello de Marchant," says the diminutive Master Minton over the excited barking of the dog. "Come in quickly, Bruxa wants to say hello."
