Tower Square
This side of the square is the southern section of the Tower Square.
In the center is the walled off White Tower. To the south a large
boulevard opens up leading to the Southharbor. To the north you see
the southern gate of the Tower grounds. The square continues east
and west.
A large banner rests here, depicting a map of Tar Valon.

Zone: Tar Valon
A gory tuft of flesh lies abandoned on the ground.
A marble bench, flecked with gold and bronze, adorns the floor.
An oil lamp, set in a steel cage, hangs from a high wooden pole.
An elaborately sculpted marble fountain splashes merrily.
A stout wooden barrel stands nearby.
A gray palfrey prances skittishly nearby, being ridden by you.
A mercenary lingers here, ready to earn his pay.
Master Helgi al'brawdrifynn, the Sea Merchant... is standing here, riding a gray palfrey.

Annalyn puts a bag of assorted seeds in a backpack.

Annalyn thinks really hard.

Helgi smiles happily.

The purple evening sky twinkles between tiny gaseous orbs of starlight above

Annalyn says 'I meant to go to Caemlyn, but I got distracted'

An ogier has arrived from the west.
Annalyn frowns.

Plando can be seen holding up several strange objects to the nearby lamp light for inspection
before.

Plando pauses momentarily as if to find something and crinkles his nose as if the device suddenly
passed inspection, albeit just barely.

Plando turns to the crowd with arms open, the soot covered cloak of the guild billowing in the light
breeze behind him.

Plando nods in agreement.

Annalyn looks at Plando curiously.

Plando says 'say hello! behold!'

Plando loosens a blackened felt bag with ruby red chord giving way to several beautiful glass orbs
that shatter on contact as they hit the floor.

Plando grins as an ominous smoke begins swirling about his body, creeping up towards his face and
eventually engulfing the Illuminator in thick lavender smoke.

A sudden crack of light arcs all ways over the skyline just above illuminating the lazy clouds above.

Shimmering tiny white lights spread out in all directions shimmering and crackling forming a dome as

A raucous group of sailors has arrived from the south.

The smoke has started to clear around the illuminator and he can be seen holding several devices

Helgi claps approvingly.

Annalyn looks to the sky, eyes sparkling with delight.

Plando touches a long lit match to several fuses attached to what looks like silver and obsidian
canisters with a paper machet dragons head before pointing them skywards.

Plando winces as the explosions start rattling off spinning colorful orbs and discs of light from
the mouth of the fiery dragons mouths.

The discs race one another for height before splitting into several more and bursting with bright

The smell of iron clings to the wind as the smoldering mouths of the hand cannons slowly begin to fade

Plando discards the smoldering dragon headed canisters and shoulders a box marred with strange
imagery with the help of an assistant.

A raucous group of sailors leaves south.

Teben begins cranking the box with the tiny bronze handle as fast as he can.

Annalyn claps in delight as the fireworks explode in myriad colors.

A whirring noise comes rattling from the box held up by the illuminator.

The top of the box burst open as hundreds of dazzling lights shoot forth.

The lights intertwine and ricochet off one another before bursting into crackling bursts.

Volleys upon volleys of the tiny lights spew from the top of the box causing a

The last volley takes flight bursting into a beautiful white dome that clings just overhead like

A hired mercenary cheers for Plando, causing quite a ruckus.

Helgi claps approvingly.

Plando carefully sets the smoldering box on the floor, shaking his cloak to rid all the soot from
the performance.

An ogier has arrived from the west.

Plando sweeps into a low bow after dusting off his hands, another performance in the books.

Plando grins evilly.

Plando folds into a deep bow.

Plando says 'this concludes my event, thank you'

An avid Illuminator gets out a ledger and a fine quill.

An avid Illuminator says 'Fine patrons of the Guild, if you enjoyed my mentor's performance, SAY
VERY WELL DONE ILLUMINATOR Plando.'

The fountain splashes merrily, light sparkling beautifully on the surface of the water.

An avid Illuminator says 'If I nod at you it means I heard you, if not just say it again in a
second.''

Plando says 'seems to be a few issues with Teben, so I'll have to adjust for that.'

Plando smirks.

Annalyn says 'Very well done Illuminator Plando.'

An avid Illuminator nods at Annalyn.
An avid Illuminator makes a note in his ledger.

Vrabel disappears into the void.

Vrabel has returned.

Helgi says 'was trying for you'

Helgi claps Plando on the back.

Annalyn says 'Before I leave, does anyone need the services of a wisdom>'

A raucous group of sailors leaves south.

Plando says 'well.'

Teben winces a burn mark lashing his left forearm

Plando says 'This guy didn't wear protective gloves'

Plando bonks Teben on the head for disregarding.

Annalyn winces, looking at Teben's arm.

A raucous group of sailors leaves south.

Annalyn says 'You should always wear the proper protection!'

Annalyn says 'But thankfully I am here to help.'

Annalyn continues rummaging through her purse until she pulls out a small container.

Annalyn says 'Aha!'

Annalyn unstoppers the container and shoves it under Plando's nose.

Teben whimpers at the idea of modern medicine

Plando says 'it's fine.'

Annalyn says 'It's not for the faint of heart, but it'll do!'

Plando coughs loudly.

Plando says 'light, what is THAT'

Annalyn says 'And perhaps he will learn to wear his gloves next time!'

Plando says 'light help us all, better him than me.'

Annalyn stares down her nose at Teben.

Teben groans miserably

Annalyn says 'Now hold him still.'

Annalyn takes a generous dollop of the lotion.

Plando grabs Teben against his will, strapping him in place.

An ogier leaves south.

Teben squirms but hes too feeble to avoid the grip of plando

Annalyn begins to rub the foul-smelling lotion on Teben's arm.

Teben winces slightly on contact

Annalyn says 'It'll sting a little, but this should help the burn immensely.'

Plando says 'it's not that bad is it.'

A man leaves south.

Plando says 'you scoundrel'

Plando mutters to himself in complete disgust.

Annalyn goes back the purse sitting on the fountain and pulls out a wad of linen bandages.

Plando says 'it's mostly life experience.'

Plando chuckles beneath an old white mustache.
