"I will go get the stuff from my room, just give me a sec."
"Alright," They put a few items into a bag
Lysander comes down, maps and books and notes in his hand + Unseen servant. Lysander finds a free table in a corner and sets down the items.
"Okay, so we are going to raid candlekeep. I got this map of the structure," Lysander points at a map *shocker*, "and the stuff we are looking for is basements, a place called 'Chamber of Lost Lore' and the main library, I want to say 23AX-45 is the shelf number... Anyway, Candlekeep is protected by numerous wards, which I have listed here." Lysander says, motioning to a piece of paper sticking out of a book *Do you have Candlekeep mysteries?*. "Polymorph will allow us to sneak in, some careful cutting will alow us to sneak it out and I have someone to get around the Sheild... Any questions?"
*No.... i'm broke*
"I think so. Go in, get book, grab anything that they may like after we have secured the book, get out."
"A bit more complicated but yes, basically. Oh, and there is a undead dragon guarding the basement, where the chamber is. Just prepare yourself."
*Relevant quote:*
Magic Restriction. Wards prevent anyone from entering Candlekeep by any route other than through the front gates. Any attempt to magically bypass these gates fails. These wards do not prevent creatures from using magic to exit Candlekeep.
Anyone who tries to fly over the wall into Candlekeep is stopped short. Magical flight is dispelled, and the subject floats slowly to the ground fifty feet outside the gates. An intangible ward forces creatures that can fly naturally to either land or circumnavigate Candlekeep altogether. Ordinary birds are unaffected by this ward, and a clever wizard or other individual can bypass the ward by assuming the form of a Tiny bird. The Avowed don’t discuss this flaw with outsiders, but anyone who can see the gulls flying over Candlekeep can easily reach the conclusion that certain creatures are exempt from this magical restriction.
Fire Suppression. Flames larger than a candle are suppressed within the keep. (The fireplace in the Hearth, Candlekeep’s tavern, is an exception.) Thus, any spell that creates fire is wasted if it is cast within the keep.
Theft Protection. Every book, scroll, and other work considered part of Candlekeep’s collection is magically protected against theft. Any such work that is removed from the keep disappears and immediately returns to its proper place in the library.
This ward also has a flaw that the Avowed don’t discuss with outsiders. If pages from a book or parts of a scroll are torn away, these fragments can be removed from Candlekeep as long as the bulk of the work remains in the library. Similarly, if a work is split into pieces and entirely removed from Candlekeep, only the largest piece disappears and returns to its proper place in the library.
Shielding Mythal.From any location in Candlekeep, the Keeper of Tomes (see “The Avowed” later in this section) can activate a mythal—an exceptional, unbreakable magical effect—that envelops all of Candlekeep in a protective shield through which nothing but air and sound can pass.
*That'll be difficult to get past.*
"Undead dragons? Can i take it?"
*See bolded stuff. Also, Ted can get around the Mythal*
"Hopefully you won't need to. The worst thing would be if you lost your will halfway through the mission."
*I may have a way around it as well*
"Noted."
*What is that? It is no fun when you have all the answers and no one has any of them*
"So... I will lend you to these, tell me if you make any plans or connection that I haven't seen."
"I can copy the books in the library if we need to."
"That... I completely forgot about. Technically it is illegal to copy anything, so you want to just your perfect memory to just memorize stuff?"
"Technically its not illegal as long as i don't attempt to publish it as my own work."
"The monks are surprisingly protetive."
*No copying. Visitors are permitted to take notes while studying the library’s works, but anyone who wants to make a full copy of a work must pay to have the manuscript created by scribes at the House of the Binder.*
"We wouldn't get caught."
"Even then, the dragon wants the stuff returns to her hoard, not copies of it."
"Do you know how to do that?"
"To reclaim is our mission."
"Ok, but if we can't take things, how do we reclaim?"
"Lazarus. Nice to meet you." Lazarus extends his hand to shake, which is dead cold
He shakes, and as he does, Lazarus gets a feeling of dread and calm mixed
