With little fanfare, the scene is played thru once more for your benefit.

Before the next viewing of the recording begins, Thad hums a low tune that seems to help push away distractions and bring more focus.

He always pulls out one of his recent purchases and dons a pair of crystal lens over his eyes.

The details of the recording don't offer too many specific details about it. The person behind the recording isn't seen or even spoken to until the end. Although there are few things about it. The Cuprilach's actions are the most curious at the end: Talking to someone quietly while the others went off before the recording itself. He was a arrogant ass, as the two of you realize by now, but the actions of the individual piqued his interest, as well as the knowledge of the plan and what they would do with it. He may have been taunting him, of course, but who's to say, but it may be someone he acknowledged. Another Rilmani, perhaps?

More questions, sad to say, but at least it was clear that whomever recorded it was not known to anyone there beyond the Cuprilach, as the plan involved only the 3 of them. Likely was invisible during the whole thing.

"Curious. Ser Thaddeus have you noticed the cuprilach's off behavior towards the end?"

"It is very strange indeed. Now I may be biased 'cause of my encounter with Jemorille, but perhaps the curpilach is playin' games within games.

When I encountered him in Suicide Alley, the way he got away was by a particular spell Mislead which renders the caster invisible while replacin' them with an illusory double. Could be the Silentblade we and the spellslinger and his 'prentice are seeing is an illusion whilst the real Silentblade's observin' from the sidelines. Maybe it's out of caution of the two or maybe it was to set up this little recordin'. Could be he did it to throw off anybody finds this or to get that message over to whoever watches. Leavin' breadcrumbs so we act the way the Rilmani want us to.

Or maybe I'm just thinkin' too deep into it. That Jemorille is a real piece of work. Fun, but a piece of work. I'll have to take you over to the Wheel and introduce you to him. Grab a drink and test your luck on the Wheel.

I was a bit confused, who is saying, "I'll be heading over to the Sensorium to record this meeting, to ensure the record of this meeting has been made, as per the conditions. Should we fail, we are to meet on Toril at the agreed upon location. Oh Jonn, make sure to run and get the potions before we leave; make sure to get it done before afterpeak"
Is that Rhaunades then? (Another reason I thought it was his perspective in the recording originally) But we don't have his recording, he just never made it to the Sensorium?

((That would be Rhaunades, yes, although this is not his recording. One could easily come to the conclusion, then, that he either didn't get around to it, there's another recording of this conversation, or that he lied about going to go do it))

Does Factol Montgomery return at some point? Had another question or two for her and interested in what she found out.
