Maggie wipes her hands clean, takes another sip of her mead, then uses her tail to pick up her lute and place it in her lap. She plays calm music to help the group unwind.
As Maggie starts playing, Clavorus watches as Cyrus retrieves the pieces he missed from the floor... "Oh my roots, thank you Cyrus, yes yes I'll have to show you my maps of the Wood of Sharp Teeth, tangled mess that... what... what do you see Cyrus? Is there something on the vellum? "
Maggie plays a fine little tune, but it gets drowned out by the cheerings of a bunch of sailors playing dragon dice over in the corner. However, everyone at the table is able to hear most of it over coarse language and laughter.
While Maggie plays Gaerich looks around and notices a few crude drawings of portraits along the bar's wall. On closer inspection, he notices a drawing of a handsome human captain with a burly red beard and a charismatic grin on his face. He also notices the players in the dragon dice game all wear a similar uniform and have matching arms bands with the same logo on it. Gaerich also notices a handfull of dockworkers, made up of dwarves and humans, sitting around complaining about the day's work.
For Gaerich:
Upon closer inspection of the drawing, you also see the initials R.B. underneath the portrait.
"Here, let me take a look Clav," Cyrus says, sheathing his rapier and reaching out lazily. He lolls his head back, looking at Maggie and enjoying the music. "You keep mentioning this 'Unseen Protector' Gimble, but you neve—" his eyes narrow suddenly as he looks down at the vellum. "Was this always here?" he flips the parchment over to show the party the note from Barbarossa, darting his head over both of his shoulders. "This doesn't look like your writing..."

Using her hands, Gimble props her self up on the table, standing tip toes on the chair, she reads what Cyrus shows them.
Giggling a little, Gimble says, "Looks like Nebelun's at work. I think this is something we need to investigate." Turning her gaze from the paper and letting herself flop back into the chair, "I'm not familiar enough with this to know where to look first. I think this would be more along the lines of Clavorus and Maggie as they have traveled much more than I." Gimble turns to Clavorus expectantly.
Gaerich stares at the portrait for a moment and then considers the sailors a bit before turning to his friends and pointing at the painting. “There’s your Rory Barbarossa” then he nods at the raucous sailors “and they’re of his same outfit. If we want to know more about this captain and this island, I’d say they’re the best place to start.”
Clavorus scans the papers, with an occasional "Hmm.. yes..." and a "Oh my.. " ...
He leans back in his chair upon completion of reading. Hand to his mouth in thought...
"A map... there should be a map... " And he begins scanning the sheets he put away just moments ago, looking for anything hidden or out of the ordinary. He would also scan the sheets the letter was written on as well, looking for anything that told him there was a secret map or something he overlooked.
((Assuming all our characters look back when Gaerich mentions the sailors, what are the sailors wearing? Any short or ripped sleeves? Are any of them visibly muscular?))
"You're pretty quick big guy, you should speak up more," Cyrus looks up at Gaerich from the stack of papers Clavorus is shuffling through. "You heard of him? The island I don't know about, but I've heard of the Misty Archipelago, it's a good place for pirates and treasure seekers." Cyrus squints at the sailors, trying to recognize any insignias.

This is the image you see on the armband:

Cyrus:
Yes, they are known by sailors and pirates.

"What, wait, what?!?" Clavorus pipes up again after hearing Gaerich mention the sailor from the letter.
((Assuming all our characters look back when Gaerich mentions the sailors, what are the sailors wearing? Any short or ripped sleeves? Are any of them visibly muscular?))
The sailors wear matching clothes and all have an armband with the following symbol:
There are four of them playing dragon dice, drinking, eating, and smoking.
