Zean responded to his objection with a backhanded slap, which caused Victor to immediately yell out for the guards.

There was also a crudely drawn teleportation circle, and a partially sewn wizard's robe. The young man was outraged at the intrusion to his privacy and demanded the party leave immediately. Most notably in the room were the animated skeletons of several cats wandering about. While the boy was startled, the party got a look inside of the previously locked room and could see several items of concern/interest. As soon as the door was opened, the party stepped out from the shadows to speak with him. The party hid among the clutter waiting for Victor to open the magically guarded door. It was the burgomaster's 17-year-old son Victor. Hanging from the doorknob was a wooden sign that read " ALL IS NOT WELL!" The party noticed a nearly invisible glyph of warding etched into the skull's forehead, but before they could decide how to proceed they heard someone coming up into the attic from behind them. The trail lead to a heavy wooden door with large skull design carved into it. The party noticed a clear set of footprints in the dust winding between the various barrels, crates, and trunks.

They found a lavishly-appointed bedroom with a trapdoor opening up to a spacious attic. After meeting with Baron Vargas, the party discreetly went about checking out the upstairs of the mansion. The burgomaster's mansion was abustle with various servants preparing for the latest festival.
