It is the 23rd day of the 9th month when you arrive in Sailoswa, Iott.

Questions about Sailoswa or Iott?

Tavis will answer anything as you walk.  He says, "The advantage to there being so many of you is that it doesn't look suspicious that we don't travel magically.  The Transformed Tower is not near Sailoswa, so again, it will not look suspicious for us to leave the city as if traveling far.  We will stop for supplies and a night's rest."

Does Figment know he was charmed.  Most charm spells say once charm is broken then you realized you have been charmed.

Once you are not in his presence for more than 8 hours, yes you do.

Rano asks if there's any type of alarm set off when attempting to cast arcane magic without a ring or is it simply suppressed when within the protective bubble? Just don't want to tip anyone off to our presence. Also, is there a level cap to ringless magic? For example, can people cast cantrips, or is all arcane magic stopped without a ring? We've already determined that divine magic works just fine.

Tavis says, "It just won't work.  No alarm."

"Arcane cantrips have been known to work usually."

Cyrus asks: “Are there restrictions against traveling into the “abandoned” section in the north? And why is it abandoned? Do you know anything about an underground prison in the north? Are there dangers in the north that are absent in the occupied areas?”

Cyrus asks: “And why is it abandoned?”

"Magic does not work correctly there.  It was broken by the Wild Mage.  We cannot speak his name, it is one of the magic triggers that remains in place."

"I am not sure I understand.  Do you mean what dangers exist in the north?  It is not patrolled by Iott, so you are in little danger of the authorities discovering you.  But it is a wild, uncivilized land."

Tavis' reactions and responses tell you he is not overly concerned about being arrested.  He is not looking over his shoulder or speaking in hush tones.  He doesn't shout and does take you in routes to avoid certain streets / buildings, but he is not hiding you.
