Family Secret [Hopefully Soon to Contain Spoilers!]

[gleeful54]

1) How do I discover the family secret at the birthday party for Gwenelle?
2) How can I sway Lottie's mom (I forget her name) to be my ally?
3) So what is the family secret anyway?

1) Spoilers: The family secret involves Briony. You need Lore of 60+ or Novan History of 90+, at which point she'll invite you to help with a very foolish plan. Agree to help her. Next week, you'll have another conversation with her. Ask about her parents. (I think there's supposed to be a conversation skill check, but it's bugged so the option always appears.) She'll send you a letter, and if you have 30+ Cyphering you should be able to read it.
2) More Spoilers: Get your Sense Magic skill up to around 70 or 80 before the ball. Talk to your aunt, and offer her a court position. (Her name's Lucille, by the way).
3) Even More Spoilers: Follow the instructions from point 1 and see for yourself!
