ooc: Nat one?  I'll just use my passive Insight on whatever you originally said in character that is if the DM permits.

IC:

She says to the group "Explore the floor and go to the Yawning porthole. I'm sure Renae has enough resources to help us find a yellow marked sewer entrance." She thinks it would probably take years in this city otherwise. "Or I could call on a favor from an old friend at the porthole."

<OOC>Gruk isn't lying</OOC>

She simply says "Truthful but not endearing." She draws her rapier and starts heading upstairs but waits for the group.

Gruk takes out his axe and scans the room for enemies.

EDIT: nat 20

Looking at the wine Cat says "hmph" then thinks how much she can get for a ream of paper she checks the nearest door for traps and if its unlocked 10

“Good eye there Gruk,” Drux says as he too looks around and keeps his ear open. 

Perception 10  

At some point between readying to reply to Cat's concern and looking to Gruk, Idoza just appears to suddenly zone out for a while there. Occasionally she even mutters something to herself, but in that weird otherworldly language again, if any notice to begin with. There are times after that she shows at least enough lucidity as to register her surroundings and follow along after others, but otherwise stayed quiet for the most part and halfheartedly mirroring the actions of the others as far as searching of anything.

Eventually the intermittent silence is broken with her softly grumbling while rubbing her forehead for a bit. "Sorry, that... Uhm... we were talking about heading to the portal, yes? For at least a short breather, at least?" She asked the group as a whole. 

Cat replies to Idoza "Yes my dear, we'll be heading there after this. Are you ok?"

Gruk, scanning as he is for enemies, locates a secret door. Inside is: four paintings of: Luskan, Silverymoon, Daggerford, and Baldur's Gate, that you estimate will fetch about 75 gp each, and 15 silver trade bars, blackened from corrosion but still worth 50 gp each.

 Gruk grabs them.

"We need to split these up", Gruk says.

EDIT: don't you mean 50sp each? a gold bar would be worth 50gp.

Gruk puts the loot into a corner of his backpack for unsplit loot and goes onwards.

EDIT: Also, a trade bar is always 1lb, or 50 coins, so the trade bars should be worth 5gp, not 50.

"I'm...fine. It's just.." Idoza looks up to the ceiling frowning before sighing and shaking her head. "It's nothing." She replied to Cat, flashing a weak but grateful smile. She then looks to Gruk and Drux, frowning a bit, before then simply shaking her head again. "Hopefully our departure is sooner than later. This place appears more a storage warehouse than a true crimal den. So, I doubt we'll find much evidence or answers than whatever the Avian has spoken of."

"Wait, this is a warehouse? That means there is a lot of loot and rations in here!", Gruk says.

Gruk wants to locate the nearest crowbar.

(If the nat 20 from earlier doesn't still count here, then use the following roll):

Perception: 5

(Do you head to the doors on the left of the room?)

 Cat moves to one of the doors on the left of the room (lower one) she looks weary of traps after the dumbluck of the galoot 😜

She checks it for traps 20thieves tools.
