Re: Chapter
The cleric frowns at Stefan's question. That is a valid fear I'm afraid. I would say that he is clear for the time being. I would not have been able to sense anything in one so far away. That is not to say that the being cannot jump of course, but it is difficult to jump from host to host at will. They would have to wait for the opportunity to be right. I suggest you all figure out who it is before they get the chance to move...
When you all meet at the inn again, Prizzard is there and you can't help but wonder where he has been off to. Jett quickly fills him in on the situation, as the man had not accompanied you to the cleric.
It seems the general consensus is to stay the night and leave in the morning. You all feel uneasy and eerie about the cleric's words. After all, any one of you could be possessed and not know it. The cleric gave Tanzy a bundle with scrolls of instruction as well as a few items to use in the exorcism. There are two black and red candles, a thick blue paste substance with instructions of how to mark the affected person, a small engraved dagger, and various types of herbs and incenses. As you all sit about the common room, which is mostly empty, Loden speaks to you in a low voice. I don't know about you all, but I would rather figure out this thing soon rather than travel with no idea what evil is with us. I know what it is like to be possessed and it is something I am loathe to repeat. When it happened to me it was not subtle, so unfortunately I have no experience with something trying to hide inside me. I was not given any freedom of thought or will in my affliction so I do not know how it would feel if such a thing were hiding within. I'm sure that it heard the cleric though, and has been therefore warned of our knowledge. How do you all wish to proceed?
