Gale suggests the party should visit a magic shop, [[Sorcerous Sundries]] – the finest book collection this side of Candlekeep. He believes that the crown holds powerful Netherese magic, much more so than the scraps of magic that are typically left in Netherese artefacts. Sorcerous Sundries may have books on Netheril and Karsus’ Folly that can illuminate what the crown is. | Gale suggests the party should visit a magic shop, [[Sorcerous Sundries]] – the finest book collection this side of Candlekeep.

Sorcerous Sundries {{Coords|-15|-68}} is in the [[Lower City]], southwest of the Baldur’s Mouth building and southeast of the Lower City Central Wall Waypoint. One the ground floor in the eastern area of the shop is a bookseller, [[Tolna Tome-Monger]]. Ask her if she has a book on a Netherese Crown. She insists that the party whispers – yelling causes the books around Tolna to explode and she refuses to speak to the party. If the party whispers the request, she’ll mention [[The Annals of Karsus|The Annals of Karsus: A Netherese Folly]]. Tolna states that the book is locked up in the vaults and cannot be read or bought, as the subject is too sensitive for most people. She can be persuaded, deceived, or intimidated into revealing that the key to the basement is in her office. | Sorcerous Sundries {{Coords|-15|-68}} is in the [[Lower City]], southwest of the Baldur’s Mouth building and southeast of the Lower City Central Wall Waypoint.

Passing a {{Ability Check|Sleight of Hand|15}} to avoid the enchanted armours, who are guarding the top floor. [[Greater Invisibility]] is helpful in sneaking into the room undetected, and the door can be shut behind the party to avoid the armour noticing anything is amiss. A convenient [[Potion of Invisibility]] can also be found on the ground floor (taking it is not a theft). | ||
Interact with the Clasped Book on the bookcase to open up a portal. This is the Sorcerous Sundries Basement. Once inside, open the door to enter a hallway with a locked door, which leads to the vaults. The inner door can be opened with a {{Ability Check|Sleight of Hand|15}}. Be warned that the vault is heavily trapped with pressure plates (all DC 10) which can cause many deadly explosive traps to trigger if the party isn’t careful. | Interact with the Clasped Book on the bookcase to open up a portal.
