Acquisition of the Crimson Fungi
The apothecary, Silas, insisted on a precise measurement of the Crimson Fungi for a particularly volatile concoction. It involved a lengthy discussion about the "resonance frequencies" of the spores and a significant amount of haggling over the price – 7 silvers, a rather steep sum for such a delicate commodity. I suspect he's attempting to create a potion for enhanced perception, though his methods are… unorthodox.
- Location:
- Silas’ Apothecary - The Obsidian Quarter
- Items Procured:
- 5 units of Crimson Fungi
- Cost:
- 7 silvers
- Notes:
- Silas’s obsession with 'resonance frequencies' is unsettling. Consider researching his past clientele.
Retrieval of the Brass Cog
A frantic messenger, breathless and stained with grime, delivered the Brass Cog. Apparently, it's integral to the chronometer housed within the Grand Clock Tower. The Master Clockmaker, Bartholomew Finch, was… displeased. He suspects sabotage, a notion I find increasingly plausible given the recent series of inexplicable temporal disturbances.
- Location:
- The Clock Tower - Central Spire
- Items Procured:
- One Brass Cog (12th size)
- Cost:
- 5 silvers (negotiated down from 7)
- Notes:
- Bartholomew Finch’s paranoia is escalating. Investigate the possibility of interference from the Chronomasters’ Guild.
Delivery to Madam Evangeline
A simple delivery – a vial of Lumina Essence for Madam Evangeline, a fortune teller residing in the Shadow District. The transaction was brief, unsettling, and involved a disconcerting exchange of glances. She seemed to be expecting something, a premonition perhaps, or a confirmation of a disturbing vision. The air around her shimmered faintly with residual energy.
- Location:
- Madam Evangeline’s Parlour - Shadow District
- Items Procured:
- One vial of Lumina Essence (10ml)
- Cost:
- 3 silvers
- Notes:
- Her connection to the Veil is stronger than I initially anticipated. Exercise caution when interacting with her.
