Good evening.

I had an idea of what this place was when I accepted the invitation, but my understanding was flawed. It's been several days since we were "invited," but the picture isn't any clearer. If anything, I understand less and less what this hotel is.

We can reasonably assume the staff here is responsible for the poisonings/curses at the spa. At the same time as this, they've been feeding and housing us for free. If they wanted to actually hurt us, there's no reason they wouldn't have already.

There's also the matter of the "wish."

I'm posing the question to all of you to consolidate info. What is this hotel?

Where do you think we are?
Why were we invited?

I suppose it's a bit of both, depending on where you go and who you ask. It rather feels like the latter, these days.

You could say the same of any place, in the end.
I might be too quick to judge.

There's nothing particular you specialise in?

[netherese]

Evocation as of late, though I'm also quite skilled with enchantment and abjuration. Though I don't intend it as a boast, a wizard of my education and experience is expected to be well-learned in a number of areas. I spent a good while serving as an agent of Mystra, and thus needed to be well-prepared to destroy or otherwise contain any dark magic I might encounter in my travels.

Mystra?

[ tell him about your EX, gale. he's imagining some kind of secret society boss right now. ]

oh boy you asked for it

[netherese]

Goddess of all magic. For a time, I served as her Chosen. Those days are past, yet all I learned during the experience is timeless. I do not intend to let it go to waste.

[ his immediate understanding is not "wow, divinity is real," it's "wow, i've been talking to a former cultist this whole time." ]

I see.
It's likely for the best you put that behind you.

[netherese]

[He's not entirely wrong...]

I've done my best to do so, as much as my circumstances will allow.
I enjoyed a great deal of privilege as Mystra's Chosen, but for a number of reasons, that time has come and gone.
