Then why are we still sitting here?

"Because we have drinks here. Considering it was Eledseri who left that note, we have plenty of time before we would need to meet her at the room. Why don't you loosen up?" Nidhogg responds to Zni in a rather jovial manner.

The room is still quite full of people. Some seem to be enjoying a rather spirited drinking game, while others are listening to the bard sing her songs once again. It's all a rather calming scene, full of friendship and laughter. Win brings the next round of drinks to the group's table before heading off to kick some of more rowdy members out. Even though they are easily double her size, she has little problems getting them out of the bar.

As the night passes most of the patrons are either passed out drunk or leaving of their own accord. You have to go up to the third floor to find room 16, and upon knocking you hear a rather soft voice respond "Come in..."
Upon entering, you can see the room has been personalized which suggests that the woman lives here. The woman from the bar is sitting in a chair by the window, looking out at the night sky. Nidhogg walks over, standing about 5 feet away but remains silent while staring at the night sky through the window as well.

its a nice night, to be sure, a shame we have to lessen it with such dire conversation. Hopefully once this is all finished there will be time to enjoy the stars

"Yes well, when you serve drinks for a living you tend to get conversation without wanting it..." The woman turns to face the group, glancing from face to face as if she is memorizing them, "...but that's not why you are here. I am rather surprised to see a fellow follower of the lady of death so calm when near a worshiper of Orcus."

Djarra looks over at Zni
You know its rude to keep a Lady waiting, even n more so to ignore what she says

She twirls a black feather around between her fingers. "But regardless, I dislike that she has gone unnoticed for so long. So I have some information to offer you 5. I can't offer you physical support but if you bring her wretched undeath to an end, I can give you something of incredible power.. Something no one has seen for a very long time." She turns to look out the window once more, watching the stars dance in the sky.

Djarra ponders her proposition a moment before answering
your proposition is intriguing, having faced that undead wretch before I must say, I would surely like the chance to confront her again. My only concern is her power of suggestion, it seeps into your consiouness, bending you to her will. I fear we have nothing to counter this with

Nidhogg turns to face Djarra. "I think I have the solution to that small problem. I carry a certain artifact with me that should enable us to avoid her control."
Eledseri pulls a small rolled up piece of paper and hands it to Djarra. "That is a map that will lead the way to her phylactery. Something that should give you the edge in defeating her. But I would recommend caution..." She begins to tear up a bit, you can't see it but you can hear it in her voice. "...my brother made the journey there and didn't come back. I don't know if she personally took care of it or if whatever creature she chose as a guardian did."

The group leaves the room to head back downstairs. Once you are back down in the tavern, you hear the sounds of a fight. Off in the corner of the room, you see a small, blond halfling woman beating a man over the head with a lute. Another man rushes over to assault her, but she pulls a sword out and knocks him to the ground with the flat side of the blade all in the same motion as dropping her lute. From the previous time spent in this tavern, you can recognize the woman to be the bard who performs here at night.
Nidhogg puts on a smirk. "That one's got a lot of spirit. We could use that on our side."
