Tau feels eyes turn towards him for information. He looks up and sees Andrew standing there. Recognition begins to dawn on him as he realizes he's seen this man before, in the library, doing research into divine magic just like Tau does. His findings and abilities are more advanced than Tau's, but that's because of Tau's detour into the arcane arts. Feeling a little intimidated by the newcomer, in his eyes at least, Tau becomes nervous at all the sudden attention and begins to squirm a bit as he recounts their findings.
"Well ... we had been sent to investigate the murder of a priest from 5 years ago on the Advent of Meda. Through our investigations we found out from the patriarch that there seems to be a similar murder of a clergyman at the same time every year. A man accused in one of the murders claimed to have seen a creature that shimmered in the dim light. This then led us to the fact that there seem to be a series of murders, all simiar, surrounding the Advent of Meda each year; a woman, a scoundrel, and a member of the clergy. Clues showed the perpetrator to be an undead that could create lesser undead." Tau begins to feel less uncomfortable and more calm as he speaks. "When we found and confronted the creature we found it to be a Bleakborn, thought to be created with the help of Orcus. He ... takes a interest in creatures who die cruelly, or in a state of rage against others. That creature then becomes an undead with the same rage and hatred against those similar to the ones it feels were responsible for it's death. Doomed to repeat the killings over and over again. The creature seems to be supernaturally drained of all warmth and thus craves it, trying to drain warmth from other creatures. It appears to be covered in ice due to this fact. Unfortunately it escaped from our encounter and we were unable to stop it. We plan on searching again tonight."
Tau is not as unsettled as he was, but he is still wary of the 'new' guy. He had begun to get comfortable in the group and the sudden change makes him nervous.
