The Champions were summoned by the leader of the Merchants' Guild, Symber Ergold, who asked them to investigate a gambling house in the Slums. However, Alleria and Brakathar decided not to involve themselves in the city's politics and left. Meanwhile, Mordrack and Ub encountered members of the Whisper Guild in the Slums. The Whisperers, having observed the Champions during the trial, offered them a job as bouncers in their organization. Mordrack and Ub, suspicious of their intentions, declined the offer. After some persuasion from Jared, the Whisper Guild's leader, they were allowed to leave, with the reminder that it's better to be friends than foes with the Whisperers.
In the city of Twyrif the Champions were ordered to meet with the leader of the Merchants' Guild. They also received a message to come to the Slums at night. Alleria and Brakathar went to meet with the leader of the Merchants' Guild, Symber Ergold, who asked them to investigate a gambling house in the Slums, offering protection in case the situation escalates. However, Alleria and Brakathar decided not to get involved in the politics of Twyrif after just coming back from the trial. Symber expressed his displeasure, but allowed them to leave without pressuring them further. Mordrack and Ub headed to the Slums that night where they were greeted by several members on the Whisper Guild. They mentioned that they noticed the Champions during the trial and offered them a job. It was to be a simple job as glorified bouncers at one of their organisations. Mordrack and Ub were suspicious and rejected. Jared, the leader of this group of Whisperers, tried to convince them, but eventually let them go, telling them that it's better to have the Whisper Guild as friend than foe.
