Since "the Doomsayer" isn't outside her establishment right now, and it is too late for him to bother folks at the market (another common place for him to cause trouble), she recommends trying a place called "The Stain." She gives you directions, but basically it is near the waterfront, and the westernmost-building in town down that way.

The party heads the way recommended, each member thinking about what they need to do to get a good meal and a warm bed. Finally, they reach The Stain, the oldest tap house in Thrushmoor. This is a place that has catered to local and foreign customers for longer than anyone in town can remember.

Standing in front of The Stain is a man clad in shoddy clothes and wearing a signboard across his shoulders. He shouts, "Doom is coming! The second vanishing is upon us! Pray for your salvation that the Briarstone Witch doesn't take you!"
