Mareth and Trissa have been around the HQ collecting other sensates interested in hunting for the artifact. They don't share the intent or information outside of the faction however.
The nymph also leaves a note for the Factol expressing her disappointment that this information was also shared with the doomguards. Especially with Mauric's reputation and that if they truly desire to recover the important sensate artifact, they will need to devote more resources to ensure its found before its destroyed.

The Festhall:
"Thank you, Factotum.", Shirala says to Sasha. "I am going to sort my notes in case you or the others have use for it. I fear its all a bit chaotic and... well, I am no Guvner I fear." She grins wryly.
Later when the complaints find the Factol's office Factor Hesreb decides to answer as the Factol is too busy in other matters (( and EMs cannot play him :P )).
"Your concerns are valid and the decision to involve non Sensates was not an easy one. We are aware that other Factions have agents involved in this but as the knowledge about the Pillars was already spreading before we started the hunt we decided that gathering a lot of data in the first phase is more important than secrecy.
However secrecy has some value- do what you think is best. As for ressources I suggest you find Factotum Shirala as she know the most about this matter and is authorized to allow access to Faction assets in this matter.
Just let her know what you need.", the elderly dwarf says, smiling.

Niflheim:
The man has not much left when it comes to emotions, even fear's sharp bite lessened by the veils of grey that threaten to smother his soul. Neverheless she feels his fear, the way he shifts, his avouds her gaze uncomfortable bettraying his emotions.
"The darkest darks... like the Corruptor of Fate hiding in the City hall, preying on the souls of those who gave up all hope?
Or perhaps the Lich Bard Ethanlan who went missing after heading out to find beauty and art in the Gray?
There is also a Night Hag who deals in both souls and colours but the Yugoloths want her head."
(( Next in game event will be wednesday. If you guys have to agreed on somewhere to travel I will run something fitting- if not the event can be used to brainstorm, plan and interact with NPCs in the cage. Exact time will be announced but right now it looks like it will start between 15:00-16:00 BST. ))

After the terrifying display she offers a hand of mercy through charming words and a warm smile. A light of hope in the world of darkness, a spot to rest for the restless and frightened man. Encouraging him to talk through this crafty ruse.
-I want to listen about The Corruptor of Fate, kind man. And also about the bard's last steps. Hags can wait and so Yugoloths and their conspiracies. Spare no details and you might be rewarded.

Sasha requests a copy of Shirala's notes to share with the other Sensates.

Jall kept studying references on codexs and books to guess where the pillars might be. she was fairly sure of a couple of them, she need any confirmation. it was also matter when to proceed to search for a first one, and what to do with it once found, depending on its nature and effects.
she goes to the festhall , or siren's song ,to meet sasha and ask her, when found, if she has any new insight about the nature of the pillars

Niflheim:
"The Corruptor... bad business. Yugoloth mercenary, never without is two Ghouls. He does not collect the souls for himself, no. I don't think. I think..." He leans a bit clser and lowers his voice, his breath coming from slowly decaying lungs smelling foul. ".... he is waiting for something else. Spying. He, too was asking about the Lich. But he also watches the caravans. He and his ghoul buddies."
The man coughs, wipes his mouth with his sleeve.
"The lich.. this artist. Well he left for the hills after doing some digging in the local archives. Not that there is much to be found but I heard he was reading and asking a lot. Talking to his fellow deaders... err... no offence. I like walking deaders, really! Ah. well. He wanted to know about things that happened long ago. Something about some hidden treasure r lost piece of art or some map... not sure. Think he did not know what he wanted himself, eh?"
******************************************************************************
Comparing notes Jall and Shasha find some similarities:
The pillars are most likely hidden on a plane matching the outlook and ideals they represent.
The one representing Good and Beauty has been part of a park in the Elysium for several vears- but then it seems it has been stolen (or, according to some sources given away). Rumours are that somebody tried to use it to heal a loved ones mind- but details are few.
The Lawful one was the centerpiece of a small Guvner outpost dedicated to planar diplomacy until it has been blown up in an Anarchist attack.
Chaos.... noone knows where it is. some say in Limbo, others say it has been taken to the Astral. Others say it has changed, having a completely different shape now. One claims to have seen it but he is quite barmy- spending his days in the gatehouse now.
Evil- most sources agree that the evil one has been buried somewhere. However some say that there were some who even tried to destroy it for what it represents. They did not suceed however- and now are bound to the Pillar as well- the whole story somewhat creepy.

-My gratitude, kind man.
Letting a little bag of sparkling golden coins on his hands, silently the masked woman depart. Her figure merge into the shadows of the monochromatic lanes like another shade.
The facade of the local archives rises now in front of her, gloomy as the rest of the landscape. Followed by a faint black mist that emanate from her outline she step into the building, inquiring one of the clerks about the last records the Lich was researching about, following his last steps meticulously in order to find anything related with the direction he took, to find out what was he after.

He takes the coins, admires their shine- the colours, the way they reflect the light perhaps more important to him that their material worth.
Like a magpie he stands mesmerized, enjoying this moment of bliss as he feels emotions again that he thought lost long ago.
The archives would be unstettling for most mortals, the clerk a ghost, using unseen, telekinetic hands and fingers to manipulate the surroundings. Books are brought and scrolls as well- some devices the vampire has to consult are of even more sinister nature like sheets of humanoid skin stretched over wooden frames, the letters burnt into them while the donor was still alive.
((Please gimme some INT, WIS and (if she has it) Search. ))
