Lady Arronal whispers something into Lady Laeral Silverhand and she takes her leave from the group, as the party begins to question Arronal she suggests they leave to a more private location to talk. She brings the party to the alleyway behind the Open Lords keep and as they begin to question Arronal members of the Green Knuckle Gang appear and demand satisfaction for killing members of the gang at the Drunken Pixie. Lady Arronal quickly uses a teleport spell to escape.
After the party finished with the small group of Goblins, they discover a long sword with the Greycastle family crest on the hilt. Lord Grimcrest explains to the party that Dorn Greycastle a former business associate of his has not been seen in public since he began courting Lady Arronal. The party heads back to the manor to rest and decide on the next steps in their investigation.
The next morning a message is delivered by a Wererat from the Nightmare Oasis. The message from Xanathar asks the party to return to the Oasis for he has a job for them. When the party meets with Xanathar he explains how happy he is that the party dealt with the Green Knuckle Gang and in return gives them a tip not to trust Lord Grimcrests servants.
Xanathar offers the party a job to help steal an airship that is docked in the dock ward of the city and in exchange he will give the party more information about there investigation and Lady Arronal. Xanathar explains that Arronal hired the Green Knuckle Gang to steal the ship since it has a special designed cargo hold that can carry 10x its weight.
Xanathar wants the airship to aid in the escape of one of his associates named Fredrick who is imprisoned at Ashgate Fortness, and promises the party when the job is complete, he will give them the airship as a bonus.
The party agrees to take control on the airship named The Paragon and with the help of the Wererat sailors provided by Xanathar are able to take over the ship and sail toward the Ashgate fortress.
