"If it helps calm your nerves, I'll tell you the spell I'm about to cast.  It is<em>Manyeyes,</em>a long-lasting divination which enhances one's visual perception, allowing them to see simultaneously in all directions as well as the ability to spot invisible objects.  Don't worry, it won't cause you to grow additional eyes or anything so obvious."<br/><br/>Haristar produced a collar adorned with patterns of eye symbols.  After casting his spell, Sabisstra could feel her field of vision expanding until she could see all four corners of the room, its ceiling and floor...at the same time.  But it was not nauseating or mentally taxing; on the contrary, it felt natural, as though she grew up with this mode of sight.  The telltale blurriness of vision produced by the collar was gone, too.<br/><br/>"Use it wisely," Haristar said.  "It will only last you four hours.  There are many unseen things around the Amaranth Palace; I'd suggest taking advantage of your new-found perception when wandering its halls."<br/><br/>The dark one then poured himself a glass of wine and swirled the contents about.  "In the meantime, I was wondering if you'd humor me a little bit more before I send you on your way.  I will be in this town for two more days, and may or may not pay an additional visit here.  I can tell you the identity of one of Rivenheart's succubi masquerading as a mortal.  Whoever can find her will earn the right to take from her one of her magic items.  I also noticed something odd about one of your fellow drow, Gelzana.  Not that she is drugged, but her real identity.  In exchange for one of these bits of information, you must tell me your real name.  In exchange for both of these bits of information, you must tell me your name, and the name of the noble house you were tasked with slaughtering before you were sold into slavery."<br/><br/>He then cast another divination spell, this time on himself.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Spellcraft DC 19</div><div class="spoiler_body">Detect Lies</div></div><br/>"Or you can accept neither, and be satisfied with the results of my spell.  In that case, I wouldn't mind sampling a bit of your body for our remaining time.  Your choice."<br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote">Quote</div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote"><span class="bbc_font" style="font-family: georgia;"><strong>Manyeyes</strong></span><br/><strong>School:</strong> Divination; <strong>Level:</strong> Brd 5, Sor/Wiz 5<br/><strong>Casting Time:</strong> 1 standard action<br/><strong>Components:</strong> V, S, F (a circlet or collar adorned with eyelike beads or patterns)<br/><strong>Range:</strong> Personal<br/><strong>Target:</strong> You<br/><strong>Duration:</strong> 10 minutes/level (D)<br/>This spell enables you to see in all directions at once, granting you 60-foot darkvision and the ability to see invisibility (as the spell) within 60 feet.

Avuldri said between gasping breaths.  "Uhhh, I need a massage...and lots of alcohol."<br/><br/><div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;">Exploring the Basement</span></div><br/>Keep in mind that Sabisstra is not supposed to be down here.  A hallway with four corners has rooms interspersed along it, and the one with the tunnel is in the northwest corner.  Traversing the area will require a Stealth check opposed by the guard's own (+13 Perception).  If you succeed, you can gain access to one room before needing to roll another Stealth check to get to an additional room.  You do not need to roll Stealth to get back to the entrance.  If you fail, you get caught and subdued, and must face whatever punishment Madame Lemaire has in store for you...
