As the party talks, there's a commotion on the port side of the deck. Kronn-alin points down into the water excitedly. "Look, look!" Anyone who cares to check it out will see a pod of dolphins swimming alongside the ship. "Pretty good omen for a safe journey, don't you think?" he asks.

Rathis went quiet with Ravarie's answer. "I had... Been told of the Kagonesti's treatment at the hands of the Silvanesti. It came as little surprise, truthfully. Just a Distillation of the attitudes they've always held. "Our way is Right. Your ways are wrong." To try to Erase a Culture and a History they disagreed with... I'm sorry you went through that, Ravarie. I..." he shook his head, only barely containing the words in his voice, before he switched to the Kagonesti tongue, "I Thought you might appreciate a link, however tenuous, back to the Forests on this trip."

"I appreciate the thought, Rathis," Ravarie says with a soft smile. "But, upon knowing this story, I'm sure there are questions as to why I'm going back to these lands. Sorrith's and Lalora's mother is apparently dying, and despite the fact that I was a slave she didn't treat me as one. More often than not, she treated me as if I was her own daughter." Upon hearing the commotion, Ravarie moves to the side of the ship to see the dolphins. "The Blue Phoenix is giving us his blessing," she says.

Hunner however is distracted by the dolphins, and laugh with joy. Though, inside Skirr pray to Zeboim, that she won't let Habakuk to expose him. In his heart he tried to reason- he could cause so much chaos and mayhem. "Maybe we should learn a thing of two from them."

"Blue Phoenix?" Kronn asks, tilting his head. "Oh, wait, you mean the Skylord. That's what we call him where I'm from. Anyway, you can never have too many blessings, I say. I hope that doesn't mean the voyage will be boring, though."

"What do you mean by learn a thing or two from them?" Ravarie asks Hunner curiously before looking to Kronn. "Skylord?" she asks. "What would you call the Valiant Warrior?" she asks.

Hunner laugh. "Ha! I want to sound wise!" And then more somberly. "Look at them. Leaping forward, swimming through the ocean of dread, without hesitation nor fear. They aren't fool. They aware of the dangers, yet they live their life to the fullest." He pause. "As for the second lesson, I will let you figure it out.'

"Skyblade or Whizbang, or most recently, Fizban," Kronn answers, ticking the answers off on one hand. "Fizban's been real popular now since the war."

Gerrard smiles up at the half-elven woman. "That would be very good, Nonna. In that case, Krixus can find us a cart while I search for Jorrun. His absence is beginning to trouble me. Did he say anything to you about anything he was planning to attend to?"

Ravarie raises an eyebrow at Hunner, then shakes her head and looks back to Kron. "Why Fizban?" she asks curiously.

"Just a new name the Kender have been calling him since then," Rathis answered, "I assumed there was a story, but never took the time to hear it myself." He was watching the dolphins warily.

"Why are you watching them like that?" Ravarie asks Rathis, taking note of the look on his face. "Dolphins are a good sign. Dolphins actually saved my previous group when we were shipwrecked," she explains.

At Ravarie's question, Kronn launches into a rambling story about Fizban the Fabulous, a befuddled old wizard who was actually Paladine the god in disguise, who became friends with the great Tasslehoff Burrfoot (Kronn's uncle, didn't you know?) and helped the Heroes of the Lance thwart the evil Dragonarmies and save the world.

"Oh, the really big fellow?" Nonna asks. "Yes, he checked out early this morning. He said something about a family emergency, and apologized for leaving but wished you luck on your journey into the wastelands."
She adds, "So what exactly are you looking for? Aside from just a cleric, I mean. There are a lot of them in the city, so narrowing things down will help a lot."
==============
(OOC: There are 58 priests with class levels in the city overall.)

Gerrard grimaces when Nonna tells him of Jorrun's leave-taking. "I expected better from him. He should have spoken to me, I would have honored our partnership and gone with him."
He thinks for a moment before responding, taking into consideration the loss of a capable warrior, "Perhaps a cleric of Kiri-Jolith or Paladine? Someone who can be trusted and can handle themselves in a fight. I don't think it will be safe for someone who has spent their life in the temple and doesn't know one end of their weapon from the other"
