Noble's Cache: Halvren Retainer Stash

Hidden in a locked chest beneath a false floor in a rented guest chamber, the cache belongs to a minor retainer of House Halvren. It reads like the private petty-wealth of someone who serves a household rather than the household's coffers: ready coin for bribes and errands, a signet ring used to identify the bearer, a single potion kept for emergencies, small gems and silverware used to impress visitors, and a set of fine clothes for appearances. Tucked among them is a sentimental locket and a sealed deed for a modest townhouse in the merchant quarter. The items are useful immediately for trade, disguise, or small favors, and the deed offers a chance at greater reward if the party can navigate proper registration or find a sympathetic buyer.
