In the [[Western Beach]] near Rivington, you can encounter members of the Guild fighting a band of the Stone Lord {{Coords|-220|94}}. If you stand back and watch or choose a neutral path, you will default to supporting the Guild. WARNING: As a [[Bard]], suggesting that the conflict be resolved by Flyting causes both sides to become hostile. [[Cairos]] drops [[Corpsegrinder]] and [[Farlin]] drops [[Gleamdance Dagger]]. One [[Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen]] can be found atop a barrel {{Coords|-225|107}}and two more can be found on the ship {{Coords|-214|131}}. Killing both groups grants the [[Inspiration|Inspirational Event]] '''Cleaning up the Scum''' ([[The Dark Urge]] background).  
In the [[Western Beach]] near Rivington, west of the South Span Checkpoint, you can encounter members of the Guild, led by [[Farlin]], fighting a band serving the Stone Lord {{Coords|-220|94}}. If you stand back and watch or choose a neutral path, you will default to supporting the Guild. WARNING: As a [[Bard]], suggesting that the conflict be resolved by Flyting causes both sides to become hostile. [[Cairos]] drops [[Corpsegrinder]] and [[Farlin]] drops [[Gleamdance Dagger]]. If she is aided and survives, Farlin will offer a reward of 674 gold afterwards. Additionally, one [[Mind Flayer Parasite Specimen]] can be found atop a barrel {{Coords|-225|107}}and two more can be found on the ship {{Coords|-214|131}}. You can turn on the survivors afterwards, and killing both groups grants the [[Inspiration|Inspirational Event]] '''Cleaning up the Scum''' ([[The Dark Urge]] background).

More information can be gleaned by following the path to the west of the South Span Checkpoint. The path leads to the beach, which is littered with traps, and eventually a boat {{Coords|-212|87}} . A group of Guild members are arguing with members of the Stone Lord's crew. Farlin, a member of the Guild, beseeches the party to aid her, and offers 674 gold if they do. After the fight, the party can either leave them be or turn on them to take over the ship.
 
Note that there are three tadpoles in this area: two in the central storage on the boat {{Coords|-214| 131}}, and one on a barrel near where the fight occurred {{Coords|-255|107}}.
 
=== Entering the Guildhall ===
=== Entering the Guildhall ===
There are several paths to the [[Guildhall]]. The fastest route is to use the manhole {{Coords|127|-30}} in the alley north of the Basilisk Gate waypoint and smash through the western wall {{Coords|38|784}}. Follow the path west and there is a locked door to the Guildhall. Lockpicking it (DC 20) grants easy entry. Above ground, there is an alley {{Coords|57|-101}} guarded by [[Tusgront]] and several other Guild members. If the party aided Farlin in Rivington, they are instantly recognized as allies of the Guild and allowed entry. If Jaheira is in the party, selecting "Careful, that's the High Harper Jaheira you're speaking to" smoothes the way without any checks. Otherwise, a Deception, Intimidation, or Persuasion check allows passage.
