Not In A Zombie Way
Marivhon, the glass cases are magical. That means, without a golden key, giant strength, awesome thief stats, or powerful magic, you can't break them open.
The terminals are more like ATM machines, big boxes with an alphanumeric keypad, but no obvious way to turn them off or on. Sure, you take a dagger and inscribe your name on it, 'tagging' the terminal for posterity.
You type a lot of stuff, but don't really seem to understand how to use these terminals, as
I MARIVHON
brings up
Marivhon, known criminal. Devotee of Grisbane, this half-elven monk is wanted for various crimes against the state and certain citizens, including kidnapping, theft, and multiple counts of first-degree murder. Approach with caution if seen.
That's in the Private terminal. Similarly,
I BROGG
brings up
Brogg, half-orc priest of Grisbane and wanted criminal. Part of a band of thugs who've committed numerous crimes against the state and private citizens. Not much of a threat to civilization, as his priest powers are capped due to a sub-par Wisdom. Regardless, handle with discretion and arrest on sight.
...
Marivhon, you find a post-it note, write your peace, and leave it stuck to the side of the terminal. Somewhere, a mind flayer grows impatient.
...
Up in the Prince's Quarters... yeah, it's the standard impaled guy, eyes rolling, blood, madness sort of stuff. I got it initially from this crazy old Judge's Guild mini-adventure where this guy was mummified, poorly, but has an amulet keeping him alive, and his 'friends' left him staked through the wall as they couldn't kill him. Great illustration of said mummy. Judge's Guild, we hardly knew ye.
Anyway, you have to get close to see what he's got. Okay, you get closer.
He's got a number of valuable looking things, including a little gold key and a larger key on his necklace.
He's still not responding. Seems disinterested in playing chess.
You guys seem to get paralyzed when you have more than one or two options ahead of you. There are six dungeon levels you can possibly explore, including the rest of the Gardens, the Museum, the rest of the Prince's Quarters, Queen, King, and Solarium.
Somewhere, a mind flayer yawns and eats some guy's brain.
