```col-mdflexGrow=2.5===# Outline## Players Information In most of the taverns of the city, the disappearance of Lady [[person/byelaya-tainley|Byelaya Tainley]] some three months ago caused many whispers. She still has not been located, but the family has recieved several letters from her stating that she is safe and happy. Descriptions of the 18-year-old girl (very beautiful and highly attractive, medium height, slender, blonde hair, blue eyes) have been nosed about, and the family is offering a reward of 1,000gp for news of her. The girl was always known as a loner by the other maidens of [[settlement/the-heights|The Heights]]. She had only one close friend, [[person/cortina-de-la-riis|Cortina de la Riis]].## GM's Notes [[person/byelaya-tainley|Byelaya Tainley]] has had dreams of being a hetaera (a very high-class courtesan) since as a young girl she heard a very romantic story in which the heroine was a [[profession/courtesan|Courtesan]]. She has confided these dreams to no one, not even her closest friend. **<center>[[person/bianca|Bianca]]</center>** ![[bianca-aka-byelaya-tainley.jpg]]**<center>Lady [[person/byelaya-tainley|Byelaya Tainley]]</center>** ![[tainley-byelaya-aka-bianca.jpg]]Three months ago, she dyed her hair brown, changed her name to [[person/bianca|Bianca]], and ran away from home. She began working as a [[profession/courtesan|courtesan]] at [[landmark/the-blue-lantern|The Blue Lantern]] on [[settlement/the-street-of-silk-veils|The Street of Silk Veils]]. No one at the house knows her origins and certainly no one suspects she is the daughter of a noble house. She is quite happy in her new role and doesn't want to leave it. She has sent letters home saying she is safe and happy and until recently, her parents have resisted searching for her. They were of the belief that she should be allowed to "sow her wild oats" but are now regretting the decision to not send her for fostering like her brother. They may ask the party for help finding her.Recently, (9th of Wealsun), [[person/bianca|Bianca]] went out to do a little shopping and forgot to wear her veil. [[person/cortina-de-la-riis|Cortina de la Riis]], Belaya's only close friend among the girls of [[settlement/the-heights|The Heights]], was traveling to her voice lessons on [[settlement/the-street-of-harps|The Street of Harps]] and spotted a young girl with brown hair who closely resembled Byelaya except for the hair color. Cortina, worried about Byelaya since her disappearance, asked her brother Thomas to check out the girl she spotted circumspectly. This was in the vicinity of the Plaza of Troubadours and [[settlement/the-street-of-silk-veils|The Street of Silk Veils]]. Thomas is looking around for a group to do some investigating on this matter, and there is a chance he may choose the player-characters to do the job.``````col-md**Locations/Start** - [[settlement/the-labyrinth]]- [[settlement/the-heights|The Heights]]- [[settlement/the-street-of-silk-veils|The Street of Silk Veils]]- [[landmark/the-blue-lantern|The Blue Lantern]] **Key Participants** - [[person/bianca|Bianca]] / [[person/byelaya-tainley|Byelaya Tainley]]- [[person/cortina-de-la-riis|Cortina de la Riis]]- [[person/thomas-de-la-riis|Thomas de la Riis]]---### World Anvil Metadata**Id:** 8ff4636a-e1d3-4037-a18a-6acf9f42ad74<br>**Entity Type:** Article / plot<br>**Category:** Haven Encounters and Scenarios<br>**Tags:** FCoH-plot```
