Inside Sorcerous Sundries {{CharLink|Tolna Tome-Monger}} can be found at her shop at {{Coords|8|-92}}, where she sells scrolls and books. She can inform the party about the most rare ancient magical books owned by the Sorcerous Sundries including the {{SmRarityItem|The Annals of Karsus}}, a tome written by [[Karsus]] himself.

If passing a [[persuasion]] check, she tells the party that the vault can be entered through her office.
Within Sorcerous Sundries and up the stairs a Projection of [[Lorroakan]] will inform the party that "knowledge will determine your path forward." Four portals will open, each accompanied by a plaque giving a different explanation of what the [[Nightsong]] is, only one of which is correct. The pale blue portal on the East side with the plaque that reads "The Nightsong is an immortal being, the child of a deity" will transport the party to [[Ramazith's Tower]], home of Lorroakan, while the others will kill whoever attempts to enter.

Casting [[Fog Cloud]] over the door is a good way to deal with the lock and get inside the office without being seen by the guards.
Once inside Ramazith's Tower, the party can jump down or use the magically floating furniture to get to the middle floor. Once down, interacting with the button labelled 'Vault' transports the party to a hidden room in the north end of the vault.
