You get an earful of drow bargaining on prices for typical good and services, nothing special. It's like walking into a Ralphs and watching people buying fruits and vegetables. If there's an inn or a place to "regroup", you won't find that here, unless you specifically ask someone.
Arora stays hidden and communicates through the telepathic link that Zhi had set up [Guys, someone really needs to start asking some direct questions about the house of Gullion before this spell wears off]
Getting nothing of real value from the merchants, Doc sighs in resignation and asks where House Guillion is (mentally turning telepathic communication with the others "on" so they could hear)
Mock has understood virtually nothing since entering the city. Cons of never learning Undercommon. So she's done what she's been told and kept her mouth shut, lest she be the one to give them away. Oddly enough, even through the mental link, she's been awfully quiet. Maybe there's just not much going on up there, except for the few Infernal curses that have popped up whenever she's seen something cool.
Now that they've got a location, though, she pipes up for the first time. 'We're headin' there now, right? Since we know where they're at, and it's not like they're expectin' us. 'Fore this spell wears off, too.'
Hey boss...how in the nine hells are we gonna just traipse into the tower? Just flash our Order of the Black Sun badges and say we're here for a booty call with the matron mother? Room service - like fluff pillow? Daewen think/communicates with the group.
Neph thinks and replies to everyone, "Maybe we are tradesmen, we have heard that they have a leak in the tower and we are looking into it? Or, perhaps we are looking to shore up defenses against the crystalline entities, here to install some bars and reinforced masonry on the upper floor? Did they order delivery from the market?" Neph is brainstorming as they walk.
If you say so....I wouldn't want any random people just wandering around my house! Anywho, let's get the show on the road...or is it road on the show? I never understood your silly humanoid idioms...
Invisible, Daewen follows the group as they enter area 2.
Standing on the steps to Tolgorith Tower are two royal guards. A large, ornately carved stone door, magically fused into the body of a huge spider, dominates a side landing upon the continuing staircase. There are no visible knobs, handles, hinges or knockers upon the door.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
When we were walking over here, did we happen to notice any side or rear entrances to the tower? Perhaps service or delivery entrances for worker drones who service and support the family living in the tower?
"Yeah... I think walking up to... that... is how we all end up getting killed." Doc mentally shared with the others. "Maybe we should find or capture someone who might have more information?" he offers to the group.
Zhi rolls his eyes - the disguise did little to change his demeanor, though knowing female Drow his behavior seems quite in character and mentally projects to the party;
“I am capable of creating a Passwall through whatever area of the building we need. If we circle around to somewhere in the back of the building and enter, I can change the disguise on Seeming to make us all look like Drow servants.”

Nephvir steps over to help Doc when he’s asking for help, “yes, where is it located?”, speaking in undercommon.
A wizard is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he means to.
You seek Tolgorith Tower, at (AREA 1).
(You'll need to pass through AREA 2 to get there.)

"Agreed. We should hurry there as fast as possible. Who knows what we'll encounter..besides..drow and spiders..BLBPTHTB." she shivered.

Last to know and first to be blamed...
As a free action, can I regret my life choices?

"Well, we're drow, are we not allowed to go anywhere we please around here?" Kasha wondered.

I have a bad feeling about this... Doc sighs internally as he makes his way over to to Area 2.
(How long has it been since seeming and telepathic bond were activated?)

AREA 2: THE LANDING
Standing on the steps to Tolgorith Tower are two royal guards. A large, ornately carved stone door, magically fused into the body of a huge spider, dominates a side landing upon the continuing staircase. There are no visible knobs, handles, hinges or knockers upon the door.
This is going to be one heck of a challenge.

As they're marching up to Area 2, Daewen casts Protection from Poison on herself.
Those bastard Drow and their affinity for poisons...

"What the fudge! They're not gonna let us walk right up and go in. Whatdowedo!" she whispered.
Doc...go talk to 'em...give 'em your speal about how we're supposed to be here.
