Dice will head back to his room and light a fire, before tossing in the bottle from the healing potion he stole and breaking it in the hearth. Then he will ring the bell and lay in his bed while waiting for his attendant to arrive. Laying on his bed, he will feel a whisper calling from his pocket. As he pulls the sphere from his pocket, his eyes will become fixed on the tiny fleck inside... watching it shift and twist in unnatural ways...
Well Dice was intending on just flopping on the bed and waiting to put in a food order but now yes... he is going to try to talk with the Great Old One.
"Oh Great One.... Oldest and Wisest master.... I thank you for you many gifts. Please help to guide this unworthy vessel with your all-knowing power. I ask your help in my task to recover items of great importance. I have always followed your instructions to the letter without hesitation. If I cannot recover these items they will put me in jail and I fear I will not be able to continue your work. Please Great one.... Provide me the power and the knowledge I need to find what I seek so I can continue to do your bidding!"
You see flashes of images in your mind. First you see a woman, standing in gleaming silver armor and holding a brilliant staff with a large crescent moon shape on the end. Next you see a fearsome black dragon, its gaping maw open towards you ready to devour you. Lastly you see the woman with the staff striking down the dragon with a mighty blow from her holy moon staff.
"Very well, thank you" Dice will say to him in his mind while motioning him to step inside. "I was wondering what our options were for lunch.... and also if I were to put in a request for some items... would you be able to procure them for me?" Pausing a moment "I would compensate you of course, I only need 10 gold charcoal, incense, and herbs as well as a small brass brazier." Dice will lock eyes with Ilolas, head twitching in a bird-like manner.
"Of course sir", he says as he hands you a small menu card, "These are the items the chef has created for today, but we can also make you something different if those options don't appeal to you. As for the other items you requested, I can of course procure those for you, I believe we have everything you require here in the keep."
Dice will hand 10 gold (the 10 gold he stole) to Ilolas. "Here, take this to cover the expense. Also, I may have a little more for you once you return." Then, looking down to the menu he will order a flsh platter and an ale.
Dice will think back to the items and imagery he say in the nice room with the stained glass the night before and try to compare those things the the pictures he saw in his mind when communicating with his master
Thinking back you remember that some of the imagery in the tapestries you've seen resemble the woman and the dragon you saw in your vision. You also remember that the symbol on Brigit's cloak and around her neck had a crescent moon that closely resembled the moon on the staff.
Hmmmm....... Dice will consider taking a peak in her window again once he gets his items from Ilolas. Perhaps there is more to that woman and her trashed room than he originally thought.
A short time goes by before Ilolas returns. He brings you in a tray with your ale and a plate of fish, still steaming on it. It all looks very expertly prepared.
"Here you are sir," and he sets it down on the table for "I was also able to find these for you' And he pulls out a small cloth bag and a small wooden box. "We had herbs and incense in the store room, I will inquire about the other items for you."
"Here you are sir" mimicing Ilolas voice as he hands him another 5 gold "thank you for your help in this matter. If you happen to come across the other items, feel free to place there here on the table in my room if I am not here whenever you should return"
Once Ilolas has left and he finishes his meal, Dice will leave his room and look down the hall before heading towards Brigit's room. When he arrives at the room he will listen to see if anyone is inside and then attempt to enter the room if no one is around.

**what are you doing? talking to the Great old one?**

Then there is a knock at your door.
Dice will snap out of his trance and put the orb in his pocket before opening the door.
You open the door and Ilolas is standing there, "Good afternoon sir, how did this morning's game go?"
"Very well, thank you" Dice will say to him in his mind while motioning him to step inside. "I was wondering what our options were for lunch.... and also if I were to put in a request for some items... would you be able to procure them for me?"

"Thank you sir, I'll be back shortly" and he departs from your room to retrieve your lunch.
*did you want to do anything before he gets back?*
*** Do I have any idea how long he will be? I don't want to be running around stealing stuff and not be here when he arrives with my food lol***
**he will be back shortly, i wouldn't leave your room. I just meant if you didnt want to do something i could fast forward til he comes back.**

Give me a perception check at the door.
Dice looks really hard at the door 10
