 		- [[Calen]], [[Faylen Valora]] and [[Kite]] escort [[Deidre Gille]] back to Y'athyr - but exit the carriage a bit outside of the entrance, and walk the remaining distance.
 		- [[Val]] and [[Metternich]] spend some time investigating the Black Hooded, Red-Insignia'ed folks that have been around the docks guarding shipments. Rumor indicate that they might be a Rhodesian Cult of some sort. Though the docks themselves are owned by [[House Tenrae]]
 			- The Guards seem to be supplied by [[House Tenrae]], but are actually from [[House Tassarion]].

+			- As they attempt to go their way through, they hear wailing and growling/moaning - and notice sets of eyes watching them.
+			- They encounter a pale-skinned human wearing dark clothing - they respond in Undercommon. Asking "Why are you here?" - [[Kite]] deduces that they are Caligni - like we encountered at [[Sinni Springvale]]'s house. The Caligni says that their name is Thublinkaraari (THUMB-lin-CAR-ee)
