Random word generator to the rescue again. Just kept going until I got some kind of place. This time: "cemetery".

"It's a cemetery," she says. "Specifically, it's for people who don't want to worship any particular god. Not a lot of graves there, since Nual's such a big presence in this town."

"Ah!" the priest declares. "And the churches have their own cemeteries, but the temple does not. Perhaps that is what we are looking at - gravesites. Or even individual graves, such as for members of a specific family."

The red-haired woman looks concerned.

"I don't want to go grave-robbing if I can help it."

"I doubt that's it," you say. "The map would have to be way more precise if we were going to be finding specific gravestones. And it's magic, so it could be that precise if that's what Grandmother wanted."

You look at the regular map again.

"Maybe we're meant to follow the normal map, and the magic one tells us we're looking for a grave in that area? I'm told the regular map seems to be pointing to the festival grounds..."

"I know of no grave near there," the priest says. "But, you may be correct that the maps are meant to be taken together somehow. I suggest giving that some thought while we investigate what has happened to my fellow priests."

You suppose that's a riddle that has more immediate clues.

"All right. But all we've found so far is a rainguard. You're a priest, have you noticed anything in particular?"
