In the afternoon, he first went to the Prophet's Society and informed Luviya of the whereabouts of the Blood Coin. Afterward, he went to Coldwater Port and met with Mr. Edmund, the Old Tower Keeper, paying him to help find information about the Guardian of the library, the "Gray Robed Sage" of the Old God.
