The Heroes investigate the Purple District, and eventually find a local fence. He has had dealings with the little thieves belonging to Opal's band, but has no way to contact them.
During their search, they save a couple of kids being attacked by a swordsman. The kids know of Opal, and are willing to leave her a message. Further investigation brings the Heroes to a fighting pit, where they actually spot Opal being dragged to the duelling grounds.
The Heroes intervene and save her, but only after she's been poisoned. They bring her to Raging Wind, who tries all she can, but it seems the poison coursing through her blood is of a magical or cursed nature.
In the meanwhile, Tang has been challenged to a duel, and loses all his belongings to a member of the White Stone martial arts school. The party had already heard of this school, and has a few leads connecting it to the Leaning Pillar. The Heroes go the school's grounds, to challenge the students of the school, and retrieve Tang's belongings, also hoping to glean more about a possible connection with the Leaning Pillar.
Unfortunately, one of the students of the White Stone, a huge brute well-versed in Martial Techniques and Taos, knocks everyone out, except Tang, who manages to escape his fury.
