Scene 1: Arrival

Yendil spend some time walking around the city and discover


Traders from up and down the Sword Coast come to this market to buy timber, spices, medicines concocted from jungle plants, dinosaur skulls and claws, iron, tiger pelts, carved ivory, Batiri and grung handiwork, colored feathers, tropical fruit, monkeys, plesiosaur meat, and all the other riches of Chult. Street performers and tabaxi minstrels add to the cacophony. Colorful awnings protect the market from sun and rain but also trap the heat and smells.

There is also a large building separated from your inn by a wall but could only be accessed by a wide stone bridge connecting it to the Grand Coliseum



For whatever reason whoever told you about the temples in the city didn't mention this temple. Perhaps because locals call it just Hall of Gold. And never temple to Waukeen, which it actually is.
This magnificent structure is called Hall of Gold for its shining, golden roof and for Waukeen’s focus on trade and wealth. Mount Sibasa is the highest point in the city, and when the sun is shining, light glinting off the temple roof can be seen for miles out at sea.

Being confronted by the guards at merchant prince Jabals requirements to ask about a guide, he quickly backs off, and will try his luck with Trak at Kaya's. Walking through the city he takes in all the sights. The Grand Souk in all it's liveliness, a place that makes Yendil's heart pound faster in excitement. Being out of the rain he casually walks through the market, giving a silver coin to two tabaxi minstrels who are playing a happy upbeaet song, and another one to the street performer that was juggling swords with so much finesse, that he stopped and stared for a while.

"The Hall of Gold. Even out in this heavy rain it is impressive. Might get a closer look when the sun is out again."

At Kaya's Yendil walks up to the bar "Hey Trak, unfortunately we had no luck meeting with Kwayothé. Apparently they seldom visit the Goldenthrone, but it still seems to be the best place to get an unscheduled meeting with them. By the way, yesterday, we found a poster of a guide called Azaka, have you seen them or heard about them in the neighbourhood?"

While traveling through the city you come harbormaster’s office You notice few more guides have their posters on a bulletin board at the office wall: Eku, Hew and Salida along with Faroul and Gondolo you have met already and Azaka's. All have the same reference to Jabal

Trak share you that each guide regularly visit the inn (when not hired/travelling) and suggest that tonight you may meet at least few of them (due to weather). He also promise to let Azaka know you are looking for her, should she come while you are not at the inn, but he guess guides will be late (after you return from Synda's visit)

"Thanks Trak, hopefully we'll meet some of them later tonight."
