| - | [[people:Amer Terrente]], a merchant for the [[lore:Vulfgrau Trading House]], arrives a few weeks after the menagerie leaves.

| - | Several evenings later a large iron reinforced carriage arrives guarded by four determined looking men. The banners from their lances announce them as knights of the [[lore:Temple of Light]]. The more disturbing is the fact that two of the banners on the carriage fly the black eye and sword of the Inquisition. | + | Several evenings later a large iron reinforced carriage arrives guarded by four determined looking men.

| The next morning the temple bells ring early calling everyone to a special service. [[people:Sofiya]], [[people:Brizanthimus]], and Amer all attend the service, while [[people:Esandeor]] and [[people:Xarth]] elect to go outside of the town. Father Dominic says the morning prayers then announces several changes. First, Father [[people:Oswald Karlsson]] as arrived to take over the position of [[people:Tobias Kuhn|Baron Ulrichstein's]] personal priest.

| The dinner is enjoyable and filled with pleasant conversation, but once Lady Marjorie excuses herself for the evening the atmosphere palpably change. Valten begins his questioning of everything that happened since the battle at the east gate asking extra questions concerning the spiritual attacks in the north. While nobody mentions the [[wp>necropolis]] they do speak about talking to a priest of [[lore:Taur]]. While they mention the internal conflict with the elves, Valten keeps coming back to the spirits, while the Baron and Father Oswald continue to see tense at the questions. | The dinner is enjoyable and filled with pleasant conversation, but once Lady Marjorie excuses herself for the evening the atmosphere palpably change.

| - | The dinner finally comes to an end and everyone wishes each other a good night. Valten says that he may be back later to question them further, but it is clear that the source of the evil in this area originates from the north. He will be traveling in the next couple of days to question Sir [[people:Kaufmann]], the Bailiff of [[atlas:Luckau]]. Xarth looks visibly uncomfortable at this revelation. | + | The dinner finally comes to an end and everyone wishes each other a good night.

| - | As they are returning to the store Squire [[people:Eckard]] happens to be walking nearby. He tell them that he has been given permission by the Baron to visit his father's lands for a few days. His generally affable manner slips for just a bit and he asks everything truthfully who they are and why they are here. Sofiya says they are just merchant caught up in something larger. Squire Eckard does not fully believe her, but not enough to confront her with her deceit. | + | As they are returning to the store Squire [[people:Eckerd Kaufmann]] happens to be walking nearby.
