Xora comes home from HouseXyrl
Ioria goes home to the same house.
Nirl greets Xora with some candy and friendly words.
Zarathustriel visits Ahriman and the assistant lent from HouseXyrl to ask them to make her a weapon. A sort of heavy sabre is decided upon.
WeaponsmasterScatha comes to vist, slightly unannounced.
Xora and Zhaunil meet Scatha in the Red Parlour and Zhaunil seems slightly miffed and cold towards the friendly, if somewhat impolite Weaponsmaster. Xora and Scatha get along quite well.
MatronNemalzhi is nervous regarding the attention that House Hasdrubel has shown her offspring, questioning their loyalty.
Ahriman calms his mother down with potentially exploitable news regarding the expansion of HouseDormtor.
Ahriman overhears Kranaufein and an apprentice talking about something illegal they trapped in their House. A kidnapping of the apprentice, some (literal) minderape by Xora and presto: There's a rather powerful Vampire trapped in the basement of HouseKilndar.
A plan to expose Kranaufein's illegal houseguest to the city is devised. This would, with a bit of luck, create an opporunity to make a vacant spot higher up in the city's hierarch available.
Xora finds out that someone is activating the old altar in the ruins of a former House. She aims Zarathustriels attention in that direction.
