The Magic Police take stock of what their most pressing issues are at the moment, between not knowing the Xanathar's hereabouts, to the Cassalanter's Founders Day Feast which is most definitely a trap, completely neglecting their adopted children's education, and ultimately decide to focus their efforts on taking down the nearby adult entertainment bar, The Closed Truth.

How will they will handle the assignment? Hopefully with competency and maturity, but more than likely come up with a plan held together with fantasy duct tape and elmers glue.
