OOC: I suggest boarded wings (sins we are there already) but then lighthouse - we still do not know what is wrong with it and what are we looking for anywhere else. If beacon is un-repairable - we continue search, if it can be repaired on sight - we fix it and search for treasure with a clear conscious.
"You may have to break a couple of boards to get in to those areas, but the doors there should all still be unlocked. Please, if you can, try to keep the damage minimal. Let me know if you need access to anything else," Shandra says.
The boarded areas of the manse fill a lot more space than the small portion that is still lived in, and it takes the better part of an hour to cover all of that ground. However, it does all appear to be unused space. Venturing within the abandoned wings, you find nothing more than furniture covered by sheets in dusty, cobweb covered rooms. Beneath the sheets, the furniture is just as dusty. These rooms have been in this state for quite some time.
OOC: Officially it remains our primary destination (RP-wise). I am not insisting, but Zelra and Uragum seem to be on board with it. Reasons - to learn what happened with the beacon and act accordingly, searching for means to repair it.
(Rather than the west tower, we should head to the east tower instead since that's were the servants told us Igan usually goes to. Would the east tower or even warehouse be on the way to the lighthouse? We can just quickly stop by them on the way.)
OOC: Everything is almost equidistant except for the warehouses, which are on the eastern end of the island near the East Tower. The lighthouse is on the south end of the island, and the West Tower is on the west end.
Feel free to split up, just let me know who is going where and we can tackle multiple things at a time.
Zelra scratches the side of her head as she contemplates whether the group should split up or not. "Well, I mean, it doesn't seem like this place is dangerous so it should be fine. Ola is probably the best person to head to the lighthouse so I'll head to the east and check out the warehouses and tower. We meet back at the lighthouse when we're done then?"
Uragum raises and says "But," to Sylyra as he walks away. Turns to Zelra and says, "umm..." as she is walking away and "wait" to Ola. And then slumps. To himself he says, "I guess no one listened when I said splitting up usually ends in death.
At Zelra's suggestion to meet back at the lighthouse, Sylyra raises a hand and waves it to acknowledge her without breaking stride. As Uragum works to catch up to the elf, he hears Sylyra sigh, but wonders if the druid might have slowed down just a little to help him catch up.
OOC: The east tower and west tower are separate from the house, one at each end of the island. The house is closer to the center of the island.

OOC: So, if we're going to search everywhere, we need to check ...
Should we check the boarded up wings first since we're already at the house?

(Yep, that sounds good to me.)
Sounds like a solid plan.

West tower now?
Lighthouse :)

Wouldn't the lighthouse be the last destination?

We can always split up. Sylyra is perfectly fine with it. He'd even go alone without argument.

Sylyra heads to the west tower.
Zelra scratches the side of her head as she contemplates whether the group should split up or not. "Well, I mean, it doesn't seem like this place is dangerous so it should be fine. Ola is probably the best person to head to the lighthouse so I'll head to the east and check out the warehouses and tower. We meet back at the lighthouse when we're done then?"
"Of course, let us do it." And Ola went straight to the lighthouse.

Uragum raises and says "But," to Sylyra as he walks away. Turns to Zelra and says, "umm..." as she is walking away and "wait" to Ola. And then slumps. To himself he says, "I guess no one listened when I said splitting up usually ends in death.
He then looks about and heads after Sylyra.
At Zelra's suggestion to meet back at the lighthouse, Sylyra raises a hand and waves it to acknowledge her without breaking stride. As Uragum works to catch up to the elf, he hears Sylyra sigh, but wonders if the druid might have slowed down just a little to help him catch up.
Arnald watches the others go and decides to head to the lighthouse so he takes off after Ola.

Ola would wait, so they would definitely enter lighthouse together.
