Just to the east of the ladder is a cracked wall which can be investigated for [[Mig]].
Just to the east of the ladder is a cracked wall, which is the source of the "suspicious sounds" noted by Mig. Interacting with the wall allows you to reach into the wall, where a tentacle will grab you. Failing a series of checks (Strength, Dexterity and Sleight of Hand) or doing nothing will lead to the tentacle dragging you to the Oubliette in the [[Moonrise Towers Prison]].


On the western side, above the room leading to the prison, are some roots which can be climbed to access a Selûnite bedroom on the first floor.

===First floor===
On the first floor, a large door guarded by [[Radija]] and her necromites leads up to the [[Moonrise Towers Rooftop|roof]]. Upon reaching Moonrise the first time, [[Z'rell]] will also be here talking to Radija. The [[Inspiration|Inspirational Events]] '''Clear Conscience'''' and '''Know Thy Clientele''' (both [[Charlatan]]) can be obtained during your interaction with Z'rell. Additionally, succeeding in an [[Insight]] check ([[Difficulty Class|DC]] 14) will allow you to [[Persuasion|Persuade]] Z'rell ([[Difficulty Class|DC]] 18) to grant access to her secret stash of goods with the quartermaster, Lann Tarv.

Near a torture rack is a book case with several "Protruding Books", spotted with a {{Ability check|Perception|10}}. All but the top row of books on the right are trapped. Interacting with this row will allow access to an "Ancient Altar", which can have a [[Heart]] inserted into it to open the hidden room beyond.
Near a torture rack is a book case with several "Protruding Books", spotted with a {{Ability check|Perception|10}}. All of the labeled shelves are trapped except for the top right, labeled "Musty Tomes". Interacting with the "Musty Tomes" row will allow access to an "Ancient Altar" next to the shelves. Inserting a [[Heart]] into the altar will open a door into a secret room beyond the bookcase and grant the [[Inspiration|Inspirational Events]] '''Secrets of the Necromancer''' and '''A Little Too Familiar with the Grotesque''' (both [[Sage]] background).


Inside the hidden room is an opulent chest with the [[Coldbrim Hat]]. As well, there is a small work table covered in dead pixies and broken moonlanterns from Balthazar's experiments. If [[Gale]] is in the party, he can use the ritual circle to create a [[Shadow Lantern]], or otherwise destroy it and gain a temporary {{cond|Bless}} from [[Mystra]].
