Xeshanth and Onwym spend the day in Lavinia's study, working hard on scrolls and spellbooks. Ever the careful master, the samsaran takes great care to show his apprentice exactly how copying a spell is done, noting how the writing goes away from the scroll afterwards. At the end, one spell escapes his comprehension, and he explains: "See, young one, I am tired now, and incapable of pursuing this last one. As a magic wielder, you must always be aware of your own limits. We'll take that one up again in a few days. Meanwhile - to dinner!"

Ref the OOc thread for the outcome of Xeshanth's work.
When the news come back, and especially when Gerald shows the note that was stuffed into his pocket, Xeshanth's mood turns somber.
"See this: It's the hand that a criminal mind guides. They're trying to scare us. But that's not the most clever: It proves that this Lotus Dragon gang has something to do with the harbormaster's death, since this is the one thing you have been researching today. So, it's in fact a hint. We shall not be scared, but we'll be cautious. We should show this to Lady Lavinia, first, and from now on she should not make inquiries separately."
