At the money changer, talk to Dinarzad and exchange money (in increments of 50 coins or less to get the best trading rate).

Emir's Palace
Walk to the other side of the plaza.

You will now be in a chamber with Ad Avis, who is performing a summong ritual.
- If you are a thief, use your magic rope and walk across it, then throw a dagger at the unlit candle. Duck the first 2 Flame Darts, making your way to the other pillar. Duck any other Flame Darts, then throw 2 daggers at him.
- If you are a fighter, you will automatically fight the stone statue, but since you can't win just escape. Run into the unlit candle, and keep running left past the brazier, which will catch on fire. Run through the flames at Ad Avis and you will knock him down.
- If you are a magic user, cast Trigger on the statue, then Force Bolt on the unlit candle. After Ad Avis' first spell doesn't work on you (assuming you used Reversal), go to the middle of the screen and cast a Force Bolt on the wall between the left and second from left pillars up on the balcony; this should rebound off the brazier and end up killing Ad Avis.
