Leshanna walks with the others towards the bath house. As Clara is pulled aside she would pause a bit, not stop, but slow down until Clara catches back up.

At the bath house Leshanna would join Lokat in walking straight inside.

The merchant replies to Clara: "Uhm, no. I don't know about anything happening at that bathhouse. Just heard it got renovated some time ago. But nothing out of the ordinary. Anyway, what about this beautiful amethyst ring? I got it from an adventurer who snatched it from a dragons hoard. It is ancient and probably priceless. I just have some trouble selling it, because the city is kinda prohibitive with ancient items. Let me tell you something: For 50 gold pieces it is yours. What do you think?"

Lokat enters through the bathhouse's gate. The L-shaped courtyard of the bathhouse features a trimmed lawn and nicely manicured shrubbery. The yard is decorated with white marble benches and stone fountains, each in the form of a smiling nymph tipping a jug that spills water into a circular stone basin.

Insight (Is he lying, how much is worth the ring?) 21

Lokat would walk around the bath house, searching for anyone at the desk to speak to, but also making sure to keep an eye out as to where there might be a secret door hidden...

Perception: 9

Clara notices from the merchants body language that he is probably not telling the truth about the ring.

Lokat inspects the buildings walls. He is pretty sure if there was a secret door, he would have noticed. He does not see any desk. But of course there is a normal door leading inside the bathhouse.

Lokat rolls his neck and wanders into the bath house, loosening up his muscles and joints in the case there is some sort of enemy around expecting them thanks to the pirates the other night.   

The walls of this twenty-foot-high pillared chamber are adorned with frescoes of bathing royalty. Natural light streams through stained-glass windows, creating colorful patterns on the tiles of polished blue marble that cover the floor. Three shallow, sunken pools contain scintillating perfume-scented water. White marble benches bearing stacks of dry towels are situated near the pools, each of which comes equipped with a pair of brass faucets. In the pool to the left of the entrance two womenin their early twenties are whispering excitedly. To the right, a man sits with his head resting on the rear and his eyes closed in relaxation. The third pool in front of you is empty. To its sides two ajar doors are situated, leading to small rooms.

„Very well. I’ll pass on the ring sorry“. Clara gives him 1 sp „sorry to have wasted your time“

she then runs, catching up with the group and enter the bath house as well. She will walk around in different room and sees if there are any private place that she cannot access. Following Lokat example, she keep an eye out for secret door (passive perception 15)

Eyeing the empty pool, Lokat would grab a towel.  "Well, I'm going to check out the pool."  He'd give a cheeky smile and a thumbs up as he wandered into the 3rd pool, simply letting the suspenders drop from his shoulders, but he had his towel to cover himself as he helped himself into the pool and turned the brass faucets.

Clara inspects the left side room, which turns out to be a massage room containing nothing but a massage table with flasks of oils and perfume under it. A masseuse is sitting on the table, looking absently out of the window. When you enter she turns around and greets you: "Welcome in The Nymph's Well. Do you care for a massage?"

Lokat notices there are two faucets, one for hot and one for cold water. A stone plug at the bottom of the tub prevents the water from draining out. The water is warm, slightly above room temperature and has a feint flowery smell.

Briar mutters a quick prayer to her goddess and casts guidance. She then gets as close as she can to the young women without arousing suspicion and tries listen in.

Perception, if needed: 17 + 3

Leshanna will check out the right-hand room, if Clara went to the left-hand one. (I did post earlier that she was going in with Lokat .)

Leshanna would look around the room as she enters...

Perception: 18 (Passive is 13.) Investigation: 10 (Passive is 15.)

...

Briar overhears the women's conversation. The one on the right with hazelnut curls tells the other one how she saw a handsome young man climb up the wall of a building and sneak into the room of a lady Stelmane's room. The women giggle. The other one utters she wished, she also had a secret admirer.

Lokat is still taking a bath.
Leshanna moves into the right-hand room, which turns out to be another massage room just like the left-hand room. This one is not occupied by anyone though. A search of the room reveals a hidden handle in a stone on the northside wall, opposite of the door. Probably a secret door.

Moving to the handle, Leshanna tries it, as she is not sure if she will have time to check it again any time soon. She will see if it opens into a secret passage. If it does she will close it and return to where she can signal the others.

Quote from Ascolom >>

Clara inspects the left side room, which turns out to be a massage room containing nothing but a massage table with flasks of oils and perfume under it. A masseuse is sitting on the table, looking absently out of the window. When you enter she turns around and greets you: "Welcome in The Nymph's Well. Do you care for a massage?"

 
"Well, I wouldn't say no." Clara goes through with the massage and tries to get some information about this place and the news about murder in the street at night.

The masseuse asks Clara to lie down and starts working on her belly. While she is rubbing in a thin film of massage oil on Clara's back, she asks if she wants to chat or some quiet time to relax. She begins massaging her customer with firm routined motions.

Leshanna pulls the handle and the door opens without problem. Behind it a staircase of smooth stone encased by brick walls spirals downwards, illuminated by a sputtering torch. Cool, moldy air creeps out of the door. Leshanna closes it and steps out of the room.

Leshanna leaves the room and makes her way over to Bree.  “Found it.” She says as she reaches Bree’s side. “Shall we gather the other two and check it out now, or leave and return later to do so?”

"The sooner we are done with this cultist business, the happier I'll be," Briar says. "Let's get the others and get this over with." She walks towards Lokat in one of the pools. "Leshanna found something. We should go investigate," she tells him. She then makes her way towards the room Clara entered, to give her a similar message.

Clara thanks the worker and gives her a silver coin asking her nicely if they could give her some space to discuss with her friend.
Once the worker is far enough, Clara continues "Very well, if we go through the secret door, I think we need a distraction. Any of you can create sounds or illusion, a kind firework in the garden or a large dragon floating in the air maybe ? I could also talk to my bees and ask them to create some mayhem in the garden. That might give us just. enough time to slip in"

(ooc: removing 2 sp - for the worker and for the merchant)
