The sky continues to darken as you approach the bridge. There is no sign of anything moving around the base of the buildings and hearing anything becomes virtually impossible with the waterfall so nearby.
For a second, Gavyn notices a long, faint shadow being cast across one of the windows on the top floor.

"Uri's magic is impressive," Dench whispers to Sir Gadston. "Sneaking has always been so hard for me, but this makes it easy. Don't you think so, Gadston? Gadston? Where did he go?"
You all make it over the bridge unseen and silent with the shadows of Uri's magic cloaking you. There is not indication that anything has changed since Uri scouted, the doors, windows, and wall are all options for you.
Uri sighs as he reminds his liege what the strange old lady told them, "The creatures of the tower now have no right to the book, though they would claim it. They are beings of night, shadow, and ether. Dead and cruel things. They stalk the place, posing as researchers and wardens of knowledge, but they're evil imitations."
"They hide from the Dawn and its Lord," Dench says. He watches the tower for a moment, hoping to see the green light they've heard of. Then he looks at the outer building and the ground they stand on, wondering how likely it is that the two might be connected.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Direcris moves along the nearest wall of the second building, down to the corner and just looking around it. But he stays within sight of the party. He's looking for any ways in, or where someone might come out, that they might not have seen from the bank. ((Also, DM, is there a moon?))
Gavyn examines the options, and makes a decision. "Let's try this door here. We should be able to get it open quietly." Gavyn moves to check if the door's locked, looking to see if it's trapped first: perception25

Dench's Stealth: 11 +10 due to Pass without Trace, totaling: 21.
As he starts, Dench stomps his left foot three times and whispers "Gruumsh," seeking to ward off bad magic.

Direcris' Stealth: 6 +10= 16.
Sir Gadston
Dex: 9 +10=32
Sir Gadston, the NINJA MASTER, moves so silently that even the cats, mice and wind itself have no idea he is there! :P
Gavyn motions to the party he saw something move up in the window. Then he'll lead the group over to the building.

(LOL)
Sir Gadston's voice is a whisper in Dench's ear but, no one is there "Aye, his magics seems to be of great advantage."
Just as fast as the whisper was there , its gone! (:P....LOL)

Uri whispers to Gavyn, "Want to try the door? Or shall we see if there is an entryway to the other building first?"
Sir Gadston
"Remind me" he speaks up, "Is this place supposed to be occupied?" he asks. "I tend to forget such things."
Uri sighs as he reminds his liege what the strange old lady told them, "The creatures of the tower now have no right to the book, though they would claim it.

Sir Gadston
"So" Gadston says, "we are trying to sneak up on shadows and undead?" he asks.
(Unfortunately it is a new moon. The darkness may explain that roll.)
While the group contemplates their next move at the base of the tower, the bobbing green light does make its way around the first floor windows.
Sir Gadston
"Ssshh" he says quietly. "There's witchery afoot." he points to the green light.
Direcris takes this time to quickly reach into the bag of holding and pull out a small bottle that he slips into a coat pocket.
Gavyn examines the options, and makes a decision. "Let's try this door here. We should be able to get it open quietly." Gavyn moves to check if the door's locked, looking to see if it's trapped first: perception 25

Looking at the main door, Gavyn determines the main tower's door is not trapped nor locked.
Sir Gadston
Gadston looks around the door a bit, sighs and attempt to open the door.
