Asha as Ane's Sister, Clown
Asha will do similar, mediating with her lamp to recover from her spell misfiring.

Ane knows the staff well enough that she knows of an out-of-the-way, upstairs office she can use that has a small mirror. She does not look like herself, and does not want have to explain if she does not have to, so she does not ask permission, leaving such explanations for is she is caught. She spends some time experimenting with the Disguise spell, trying to work out why it produced the face of her sister, and, more importantly, how to avoid that particular complication again in the future.

It would, maybe, be easier to test with Asha present, but she needs to rest and recover, apparently her spell really took it out of her.

Ane is curious about differences between their casting styles, and wants to do all sorts of experiments, but they discovered —when Ane came back from Thet with ideas about sharing spells between them— that Asha can't express her spells in terms of rote memorisable sequences and can not see how to implement the sequences Ane has written down. It was frustrating.

You don't hear more about Dalana or the missing package for now, except that the next evening as you are entering Inki's you see a very uptown looking person going up the stairs to that office where Ane relaxed — and you hear the doorman mention to the waitress that Big Zhad has hired a "fancy uptown advocate".
OOC:
I'll follow up with a new post / job later today. Dalana's in stir for now, you don't know where!

In the meantime, Ane has asked Asha is she wants to experiment with the Disguise spell, try out different bodies and such. Sure, 'to gain more control', but also because it seems like fun.

Garrett will move into the surrounding area. He hates the smell of Inki's and the way it makes him feel. He won't wander far but you never when a chance at easy money might present itself.

Asha
When Ane approaches Asha about the idea of practicing her disguise spell, Asha is back to her own appearance and seems refreshed after the rest.

"Certainly! Especially since we may continue to need that cover until the issue with the scribe and the amlakkar is resolved, not to mention the Red Robes. If you get the effect that you want, maybe we can take the disguises for a test run up to the Khanduq ward while we're waiting for our next job. I was really looking forward to checking out the markets there!"

OOC:
Just a suggestion. I'm happy to get started on the next quest if people don't want to spend too much time on downtime this time.

"OK, sure. Let's do that." Ane says to Asha. She should have know her friend would want to hit the markets, though shopping has never been something that excited Ane... but then, she never had the sorts of money she currently has.

"Maybe we can also find somewhere to buy a spellbook?" Ane speculates, she has never seen spells, let alone books of spell, for sale, but those specialised markets may be just the place. She would love to get her hands on a tome she can spend time digging into and slowly unravelling the secrets of.
OOC:
We can do this shopping spree in the background if we want to get on with the main story at the same time.

Started a separate thread for Disguise Shopping HERE, but happy continue on the main story whenever
