(Naw, I'm not going to pick a fight and burn up a 7th level spell when Thursday already scared them away before Kale arrived on the scene. Despite the tempting thought of having 4 brain puppy thralls under my control, hehehehe.... I'll revise my action here, right after I spotted her and she chased them away)
Kale moves to play a tune on his bandore, but then stops as Thursday drives them away. He looks after the brains which are now scrambling away with a raised brow; that's the first time preparing a performance has ever made an audience actively run in the opposite direction. "Well then," he shrugs, tucking the bandore away and moving to join Thursday. "You've had an interesting time of things, haven't you?" he says to her.
"I don't konw what happened, I know they couldn't see me. But they were able to follow me. This place sucks." Thursday walks up to the dead brain dog and places her foot on it and pulls out the dagger she threw.
"What about you? You see anything worth noting?"

"Worth noting is a relative term in this madhouse. I did see a woman in a green dress screaming her head off about spiders in her eyes. And shortly afterwards, two individuals wearing the uniform of a place called the 'Adamant Asylum' walk by as well. If ever there was a candidate for such a place, I'd guess the hysterical lunatic was their prey." He shakes his head. "Let's just regroup with the others. Maybe they've had more luck inside of the auction house than we did out here." Slipping back into the shadows, Kale continues on his way back towards the courtyard.
"Yeah, I'd feel a lot better standing next to the big fella let him fight brain dogs face to face and a... lady with... spiders in her eyes? I want out of this place." Thursday takes off behind Kale.

Kale emerges from the shadows near the well, nodding briefly at Inza, Soveliss, and Hakim.
"I'm afraid the only thing we learned out there is that this place and its residents is just as demented as it seems, and that I'd rather not take a walkabout again without some muscle and firepower behind me." He nods appreciatively at the three men, then looks around the courtyard. "I take it the ladies are doing the shopping, then? Can't let them have all the fun now, can we, so shall we join them?"
Soveliss sighs ins mild resignation, but gives a curious smile, "While I'm all for a small shopping adventure, I'm also intrigued by what we are meant to do here. I doubt we were all brought here without some goal in mind." Soveliss's eyes return to the street, down to where the woman earlier was dragged down under, ".....even if we are to die here, I'd rather we get some answer first....but shopping is a good start I suppose."
"Well here is what I know, under the fountain sign there is some thieve's cant that says, 'three coins, one copper, one silver, one gold. ask for nothing you cannot afford to lose.' And there are brains that run around like wolves. And women with spiders in their eyes. If that at all helps any of you... if not, yeah I'm with you let's just forge on through to this auction house and see what we can learn. I'm almost willing to brave the fog at this point."

"It's not the shopping that interests me at all," Kale says honestly. "I didn't expect to be traveling, so I don't have many financial reserves as it is. But what Cicero said about silver warding off evil does concern me quite a bit... it's probably in all of our best interests to have at least a handful of silver on hand for our own protection, given what I've seen out there."
To everyone... You are all now in the auction house interior...
This circular room has been fitted out with several long benches, a lectern, and a display table for goods. Boxes of ambiguous stored material lie against the southern edge of the room. In the auction area you find a few other people. There is a woman wearing what looks like a lab coat. There is a man in a cloak and a mask. The third person is a woman who appears to be wearing someone else's face sewn over her own as a sort of mask.

“With what we’ve seen and what we’ve been told, definitely think we should stick together, no one alone, shall we miss?” And Whitegaze will offer Thursday his arm and escort her in. Once inside, he’ll will go over to the boxes and start poking around to whats there.

Kale takes a moment to observe the three individuals there, trying to determine which one might be responsible for the exchange of coin.
Investigation: 19 or Insight: 27
He then looks for Luna and Al-Ashari to ask what they‘ve found out so far. „Have either of you discovered anything useful? There was nothing but madness... literally... outside. Apparently even a place like this can run an asylum.“
Soveliss glanced about at the venue then spotting the actions of the two humans, rolls his eyes and chuckles. "Such a quaint human custom...oh well." Glancing to his fellow companions, Soveliss approached Luna and offered a hand, "Lunastra, correct? Shall we head in together? I have something I'm curious to ask about you as it so happens to stand."

The boxes being stored in the room contain a vast number of jars filled with wriggling spiders (swarms of insects). What purpose this serves, and how the spiders remain alive is unclear.

You quickly figure out the other three are customers, not staff. Your companions you find on a bench close by.
Whitegaze will carefully place the jar back in the box, "Huh, I wonder if these are what that lady thought were in her eyes... Or maybe they actually were in her eyes, give this place."
(How many other doors are there aside from the front door we came in?)
"Why, yes, who would not? It's so exquisite. And we are indeed newcomers here, but how could you tell?" comfortably continued Al-Ashari the mad conversation, "I do see you are an expert, though. Are there any rumours what can we expect to see today?"

Kale and Thursday...
You did not find any other entrances into the building. It appears there is just the one.
Kale emerges from the shadows near the well, nodding briefly at Inza, Soveliss, and Hakim.

"Yea, I don't really care to separate much more than we have to anymore."

"I am a sucker for a thuggish brute." she links arms with Whitegaze and allows him to lead.
