As you go outside, you see the rain hasn't let up at all. Curtains of water fall from the sky as you traverse the labrynthine walkways of Sharn. The stone and wooden paths wind around and between the towers and spires high above the ground, forming a complex latticework that can be very confusing on evenings such as this. The rain falls hard, running off higher walkwasy and balconies in drenching waves, making it difficult to see much more than a few feet ahead of you. The distant glow of everbright lanterns, barely visible in the soaking gloom, does little to light the paths on this warm, wet evening.

"We should try to be aware of what's around us. We need to be careful."

Dínenél stood and looked around he was standing back with Nerezza, he knew this area somewhat but not enough to be of any use, he yawned and poked Nerezza then took one step forward.

Nerezza looked at Dínenél with an odd expression.
"Please, don't do that again."

The streets of the Cornerstone district are nearly empty due to the torrential rains. Everyone is inside the many taverns and restaurants of the district taking refuge from the downpour. A few people scurry through the street, heading to some tavern or another. The district is dominated by the Cornerstone, a massive arena where all manner of events are held.
To the west of Cornerstone is the marketplace district of Tavick's Market, which is also part of the Middle Tavick's Landing ward. Boz said something about the missing artificer, Paln d'Cannith, having a shop in Tavick's Market.
Your only other clue of where to go is what Arx said in his fiery message, and that is to find "the highest district of adventurers like you."

"Well, we know to go to Tavick's Market, so why don't we try going there first?"

"My contacts could point us in a more straightforward direction, unless you believe otherwise, then we shall see what tavicks market has to say. There are eyes everywhere in this city, if this Artificier is dead, someone will know who had done it, for the right price." He begins his trek to the lower levels. Lower Dura will hold what he wants, but he thinks about his companions. One clearly doesn't know the city. "This will be our rendevous point. You go to Tavick's Market, I'll go to Lower Dura, we meet back here in an hour.
As he decends into the lower depths he feels more at home with the surroundings. Finally, he enters The Burrow, a small halfling owned bar of Lower Dura.
Gather Information Check: "Where can I find Paln d'Cannith?"
Roll = 16 + 6 = 22

You enter the Burrow, a small halfling bar in the Callestan district of Lower Dura, one of the last places owned by the Boromar clan in the run-down district. Now, other crime groups run the district, including the monstrous Daask.
As you enter the tavern, you see halflings playing dice games and drinking, all while keeping an eye on the door. All of the patrons have weapons, and seem ready to use them.
You ask around about Paln d'Cannith, and for a while, you don't get any results, but you manage to find one halfling man, an enforcer in the Boromar Clan, who has a little bit of information.
He doesn't give you his name, but he says, "A missin' artificer? Well, I'm not sure, but I could've sworn I saw some half-orcs carting a body into one of the tenaments over in Gate of Gold. The body had a few wands on his belt, and my associate said he saw the Mark of Making on his arm... I'd watch out, though. The neighborhood we were in has been the site of a lot of attacks on us Boromars by people of all sorts of races."

Abdalin thanks the man as he pays him a few gold for the trouble. He now knows where the body might be, but he needs a group to find it. He swiftly heads off to find them at the Tooth and Nail. Hopefully they'd be so lost without him that they didn't move. He'd have to do something about the Daask one of these days, though they couldn't risk open war, he could atleast pick off a few of their number without anyone paying much attention.

Dwayna DragonFire " Well, we know to go to Tavick's Market, so why don't we try going there first?" "well...seems like the logical thing to do.....well, since we are now missing one to our party, I guess we'll meet him there, i really don't believe in groups dividing, cause what happens to one, affects all...but then, I guess some people to work alone and we DONT want to bring any attention"

He sees the group as it just sets forth to the Tavick's market, and he catches up to the with a sprint, jumping merrily on Dinenel's back.
"You won't have to wait for me, I am already here. And I need you all to be my muscle. I know it is hard for some of you," that part clearly intended for Ziggy, "but there might be the Artificiers body in a Gate of Gold tenement. I think my source correct, so why don't we follow that, instead of dalying around here."
