Hmm.  I thought that this had been stated in the game before, but going back and reading over it, it wasn't actually said at any point.  Zaer might be running Red Shroud a little differently in this game, but in the normal lore for D&D, Red Shroud is actually a well-known information broker, in addition to ruling over the city of Broken Reach.  Rather than offering her an opportunity to overthrow her mother, I'd been assuming that we would simply get on good terms with her and then purchase whatever information we wanted from her, if we chose to deal with her.<br/><br/>Obviously that goes out the window if Zaer's take on Red Shroud is different from the default lore, however. ^^;
