It would have been a simpler matter to retrace the steps back to the Lodge of the Silver Flame, but the addition of those who needed assistance made some of the parts of the path more dangerous. The light from the Sword was still enough to see by. Zalen walked with purpose, save for the fact that he did not know the way.

Ekewaka Tua was still very inebriated, but obviously wanted to speak on the topic. "You are right, Dajobas is the end of the world. Dajobas evil is not ..." he waved his free hand up at the sky. "Dajobas' evil is here."
| Zalen Trafalgar
"It's just so ... frustrating. I know what my faith is, and I know what's been done in the name of the Flame. But I can't help the past, or mistakes that others made in the name of the Flame. The Purge was.... horrible, but who knows how much more horrible things would have been, if the lycanthropic plague had been left to spread."
| Tulita Warrior
The Tulita bearing Ekewaka Tua urged calm to his burden: "This is not what should concern you right now, Ekewaka Tua. It is not Dajobas that starves Tulita children, burns Tulita villages, or holds a knife to our throats. But this hou'li offers shelter, and that is what you need now."

The way led through Fishers' Folly and up over some mismatched planks that surmounted a wall. They walked over a bridge made from a ladder and then over a row of massive stone heads. Then down a makeshift stairway, and up an alley. Then right and left along other alleys. Doriah recognized the landmarks as they passed by.
The Lodge was there, suddenly in the gloom. There were boards across the doors and windows, and the carved wooden handles of the double doors were fastened with chains and a wizard's lock.

"Zalen you said you could open this place up? Let's do that and get this people inside so they can rest and we can start cleaning up."

Zalen Trafalgar
"What? Oh..." Zalen had been staring up at the darkened windows, the smashed stained glass, and the sagging timbers. He looked at Uldrik "It's bigger than I thought it would be." The darkness loomed about them; the light of the Sword occluded by the walls and buildings around it. The alleyways that led to this Lodge looked like dark mouths, and the trickles of water that moved sluggishly between the cobblestones made the ground look like it was covered in spit. The rats here were bold, daring the group with beady eyes to do something about them.
| Rand Thorn
"Huh. Leave it to the Thrane to put up a little piece of Flamekeep at the edge of the known world."
| Zalen Trafalgar
Zalen held aloft a stone schema, the sigils carved to unlock the wards. He invoked the ritual and at the conclusion of the spell the padlock dropped away. "That was easy." Zalen said.
| Five toughs entered from the western alleyway. "I couldn't have said it better myself." said the big, burley one.
"Now step aside, and let us check it for anything dangerous inside." said the thin one.
"I thought you said we was gonna rob it" said the short one.
"Mrmmmph mrrmmm!" said the one with the basket on his head.
"Git back! What's inside is ours!" shouted the other one. |

Before you do something that you will come to regret I suggest you move along and leave us. Obviously we have a lot of work to do in making this place habitable again." Uldrik replied to the group of thugs.
Edit: Opps forgot to add the persuasion check I rolled
18:46, Yesterday: Uldrik Mroranon rolled 12 using 1d20+3 with rolls of 9. Persuasion check.
