Leaving the warehouse of Mr. Yellow, the group was approached by a goblin named Shifty who asked to join their crew and offered to show them to a place to stay for the night
While Whisp approved of his inclusion, the rest of the group declined and sent Shifty on his way, choosing instead to catch a ride on the Party Barge
Aboard the Party Barge, the group drank, danced, and schemed for the ball of Faye Villen.
Sir William had a little too much to drink and became the life of the party, leading the dance floor in fun
Diamond Jim chatted up an intoxicated woman who also had an invitation to the ball the following night by the name of Jihyo Chiss
Jim convinced Jihyo to come to Manse Langui with them to stay the night, and the Yellow Five paid up 15 gold for the suites, to which they were carried in palanquins.
While the rest of the group bathed, ate, and relaxed, Jim interrogated the drunk Jihyo and found her condescending and entitled, apparently coming from a wealthy family.
In the morning, Jim was confronted by an elven interloper who threatened him and told him to see his way out of Jihyo's life.
When Jim declined, she planted a knife in his leg to show her seriousness and then left
When Jihyo awoke, she seemed a different person, kind and gentile, and while she changed into something to help the crew go shopping, the crew readied themselves for the scouting mission
