Taking into account his gut feeling that a member of House Orien may be the next target, Krin begins in bars and inns near Fairhaven Station, the center of Orien power in Fairhaven, and moves outwards. Of the five inns and taverns in Chalice Center, the two nearest to the station (the Blazing Stallion and Fairhaven Inn), have had all of their rooms filled weeks in advance. Even talking to those drinking on the first level yields little useful information in that Krin discovers the vast majority of people present are rather wealthy and regulars at the inns.
The next inn he looks into is substantially less exquisite, about halfway across Chalice Center from Fairhaven station. Called "The Weary Traveller," it's business model seems to focus on catering to those not in Fairhaven for long, making one or two night stays the norms. Because of this, few patrons notice when another new face arrives or when they come and go. The owner, a rather heavyset human named Ragath, refuses to release any information about the identities of his clientele, and orders Krin to leave the premises once it becomes apparent he isn't looking for a place to stay.
Further down the way is Mel's Tavern, which is closed at the moment.
Finally at the opposite end of Chalice Center from Fairhaven station is the Horizons Tavern, a Lyrandar-owned establishment at the base of Lyrandar tower. Krin enters during the middle of a harp performance by a beautiful elven woman. The owner and manager of the establishment is Weren d'Lyrandar who is standing behind the counter, staring longingly at the harpist when Krin enters. Weren is a very carefree man and happily provides Krin with a list of recent unannounced visitors. Only two names are on the list: Wallen d'Tarkanan (arrived the night before the murders and stayed only one night) and Daen Martel, a farmer from another part of Aundair who stayed in Fairhaven one night, arriving the day of the murders.

This is the end of your first gather information check and took 3 hours. Avalier, a tavern district, is the nearest location that would have other inns. It is near Chalice Center but on the opposite side of the district from Cannith manor.
