"Yesss... I am.' Migor nod. "I was their ssslave. My clan is still is. They... did..... evil elemental things to me..." He looks at his hands.

"Odd that the Order never mentioned such a thing," Iroas comments. "Unless, perhaps they themselves do not yet know of it?"

The man scoffs as the group reaches the kitchen. "They would be aware of no more than some mysterious figures and unseasonable weather. But there is elemental evil afoot within the Sumber Hills. Captain Merosska has every reason to believe that the Sacred Stone Monastery, not 10 miles from here, is a safe harbor for sinister adherents of the Elemental Earth."

"Sorry, but what is 'elemental evil' exactly? As far as I know, evil is not an element," Iroas asks.

"Sorry, but what is 'elemental evil' exactly? As far as I know, evil is not an element," Iroas asks. "Elemental evil is a force of perversion of the natural elements, limiting them to aspects of destruction," recites one of the men. "This force wants to gain the power to tear down everything--morals, social structures, governments, the laws of nature--and reduce existence to a more elemental state, tainted with conflict and madness. And it using mortal servants as a means to an end."

"Wow," Iroas remarks, unsure of how to even respond to that. "That sounds downright...existential. Do they actually have the capability of pulling that off?"

"It has happened before, most famously in the village of Hommlet," one explains. [because there isn't enough confusion over where this game is set]

Braedon, Wolf Touched WarriorARMOR CLASS: 16 | HIT POINTS: 31 | CURRENT: 31 | HIT DIE: 3d10 | CURRENT: 3d10 PASSIVE PERCEPTION: 13 | PASSIVE INSIGHT: 11 | INSPIRATION: 0 ACTIVE EFFECTS: None. CONDITIONS: None. Braedon shrugged, probably no sense in revealing Migor's connection to the fire cult before he split with them, saving the swordsman's life. Idealistic knights might not hesitate to dispatch a monster, regardless of the creature's convictions. "It certainly bears investigation, perhaps after we contact the force calling Rivergard Keep their own, we mean to determine their connection to the increased banditry in the area. But for now, a scrap of a meal and a dry bed would be most appreciated."

"Hommlet? Never heard of it," Iroas admits. "Strange to think such dark forces could be operating right under our noses."

He turned around to look at the Iroas, "Shall we rest, and then investigate on the morning?"

Migor quickly understand it better not to spit out his connection to the elemental cult. He just nod and agrees 'Yes....'

"Well, we'll leave you to your scraps," the men say. "We'll be waiting right outside to take you to the guest rooms."
[Shall I move along to next morning, now?]

After picking out a bit of food to eat, Iroas follows the robed people to the guest rooms for the night.

CONDITIONS: None. Nodding to his companions, he took a crust of bread and a mug of ale with him towards the bed chambers their hosts led them too. "Thank you," he spoke to their hooded hosts, "we look forward to meeting this Captain in the morning, and escorting the Lady Savra to her parents to lay their concerns to rest." He then proceeded into his chambers, waiting for his companions to enter. He waited for the receeding steps of their guard, "I don't entirely trust our hosts, so let's sleep with an eye open, eh?" And with that, he hung his helmet, from the door knob, positioned so that if the handle were turned it would clatter to the stone floor, making an clamor loud enough to wake him and his companions. He then finished the crust of bread, and mug of ale, before ensuring his arms and armor were within reach and settled down for bed.
