After a few hours of cleaning, you are all starting to get a little tired, and as you try to piece together what may have happened here your attention starts to drift, Aimee is able to clean the whole ground floor, and though the dirt is gone, there is still a lot of clutter, broken glass and furniture. The level of dirt build up implies that the tavern has not been operational for at least a decade. The pots and pans in the kitchen had thick layers of dried fat and burnt on stains, which Aimee was able to get rid of. Unfortunately much of them seem to be bent out of shape and handles fall off as you pick them up. Lyss’s search of the floor is not entirely fruitless though. Two firkins are behind the bar, and a plaque on the wall is readable once Aimee clears the dust. “Employee of the Tenday - Lif” As Lyss reads it, the glass on the bar inexplicably flies off into the middle of the room, shattering into tiny pieces.
The glass seems to be from shattered glassware, wine glass stems and tankard handles are amongst the sea of shards. It seems pretty usual for a tavern.

"Well that's going to get expensive! Or was it a flying glass? Those exist, right?"
Spark frowns at it.
"That . . .no machinery. Not my work."

Aimee is pretty sure that if flying glasses do exist, they would normally not break themselves.

Spark nudges at it with his foot, and then bends down to inspect it more closely.

Nudging the glass, Spark doesn’t see anything unusual about it, it looks like normal glass. It seems tough enough that it would need to have been thrown with some force to shatter as it did.

Kerri scans the room, before calling out, "Is there someone here?"

Arrila Evenwood - Half Elf Paladin | Callaphe of Setessa - Human Rogue

Almost in response, the sound of creaking pipes resonates around the room. After a few seconds, a pitter patter of drips can be heard as droplets fall from the ceiling above.

"We've enough water damage already, thank you!"
Lyss runs to the kitchen and gets some pots that don't have holes in them, setting them up under the drips.

Aimee just stands and prestidigitates the drops away from the ceiling as the appear.
"Is there a tub up there!?"
Lyss consults the map.
"Den, Common Room, Hall, Bedroom, Spare Room... nope. There's bath's on the third floor, if it's leaking all the way down, that's not good! Should we head around back and go check out the upstairs? See if we can make that leak stop? And catch whoever's playing tricks?"

Spark takes a good hefty think about what could be causing this . . .
Whatever intelligence check would be required: 20

"Yep! Let's go upstairs!"
If the adults seem to be in agreement, Lyss will head out the front and circle around to the opposite corner where she expects to find stairs leading up to the residential area.

Spark has a pretty good idea that sewage pipes often run in odd ways so it could be that. On closer inspection of the water though, it does seem slightly warm, so could very well be dripping from the third floor.

As you head upstairs into he bare, dusty common room, you hear water running from above.

Lyss hurries across the common room into the hall, looking up towards the stairs. With her lantern, she doesn't have much hope of sneaking up on whoever's there, but she's got a dagger ready in her other hand.
Perception: 18
((Where in the taproom was it dripping? She'd be looking in the corresponding direction as she makes her way up.))

Spark hurries after as well, summoning a blob of flame in his hand for light if needed.
