Wonder why we decided to blow so much money on that massive engraving on the front of the "tower," and not something like a front door. Also wonder if we really are a wizard.
See if we can make the door sealed with magic, with us and only us able to open it.

It's not an engraving, it's a MAGICAL EMBLEM. It keeps the TOWER clean and protects it from WEATHER. This thing is the only reason the outside isn't covered in GRAFFITI like the inside.
It is also a factual and completely true statement of who lives in the TOWER, but that's not what you bought it for. Nope. Definitely not.
And of course you're a wizard! if you weren't, would you be able to do
this?
You CONJURE a door. It is structurally sound and fufills its purpose in a competent manner, which makes it the best magic you've ever done. Look, it even has hinges and is attached to the walls! Amazing!
You would add a lock, but you're not exactly sure of how a lock actually functions so you can't visualize it properly. Also, you don't want to lock the WORKERS inside.
Head south and check out the town. See if anyone is in need of our wizardly services.
the TOWN appears deserted, which is not particularly unusual. In the months you've been here, you can recall only two occasions when there were more than two or three people out at any one time.
The first was when you yourself were carting your PILES OF GOLD down to the WORKER'S GUILD to pay for the construction of your TOWER. The second was a FESTIVAL dedicated to a local GOD, which you did not attend as you are not particularly pious.
The WIZARD'S GUILD is the logical place to seek work, since the TOWNSPEOPLE regularly post WANTED ADS here to plea for ASSISTANCE OF A MAGICAL NATURE.
MEMORIZE the appearance of the ELF VANDAL. THAT DIRTY, ARROGANT TREE-HUGGER WILL PAY IN BLOOD AND GOLD. Possibly gold stained with blood. Or blood with unusually high trace levels of gold.
You are unlikely to forget the ELF VANDAL, as they had a rather distinctive appearance. Perhaps you could post your own AD here in order to apprehend the scoundrel?
You are in the NORTH side of TOWN. There is a WIZARD'S GUILD to the WEST. To the NORTH is your WIZARD'S TOWER, to the SOUTH is the GENERAL STORE, and to the EAST is a RESIDENCE.
