The Church Party
Atop a slight rise, against the roots of the pillar stone that supports Castle Raven loft, stands a gray, sagging edifice of stone and wood. This church has obviously weathered the assaults of evil for centuries on end and is worn and weary. A bell tower rises toward the back, and flickering light shines through holes in the shingled roof. The rafters strain feebly against their load. The heavy wooden doors of the church are covered with claw marks and scarred by fire.
What imagery that remains intact and noticeable from the outside of the church, Eikka and Snerp discern that the local religion revolves around the sun and the moon, or alternatively, day and night.
The Tavern Crew
A single shaft of light thrusts illumination into the main square, its brightness looking like a solid pillar in the heavy fog. Above the gaping doorway, a sign hangs precariously askew, proclaiming this to be the Blood on the Vine tavern. A blazing fire provides a welcome warmth to the few huddled souls within. At the bar is a pudgy little barkeep who stares into the distance, mindlessly cleaning classes. In a far corner, with a good view of the door (and the bar as a whole) are three Vistani, who take note of the Drow (and others) and whisper to each other in hushed tones.
The last patron is a young man, with pale skin and blond hair, who sits by himself at a corner table, sipping his wine. He also regards the Drow (and others) and watches the interaction.
The barkeep pays Luraxt little mind at the attempt at charades. He simply fills a semi-clean glass with wine and pushes it forward, without ever looking at Luraxy. In a flat, monotone voice, he mutters. One copper.
After Luraxt pays (or not) he (she?) notices the pale man in the corner attempting to get his (her?) attention.
