Their search of the factory concluded, the party slinks out the side door through which they entered, where the never-ending rain is actually a pleasant change from the putrid stench of the middenstone factory.
Soon enough, Rylidak has lead the group back through the tangle of streets to the Inn, where she nods a quick acknowledgement to the desk clerk as she follows the others up to whichever room they've chosen for planning.
Anaerion settles in with his books as Malkovian, in a bit of a snit, opens one of his own new acquisitions to alleviate his mood.
"I'm afraid what I know of Crove's Asylum is merely by reputation," Rylidak admits when pressed for more information. "The eastern cliff of the Kopec isn't my jurisdiction, so I've never had cause to visit. Before this, Crove's been so good at his practice, he not only houses the generally insane, but he has a contract with the Crow's whereby he takes those prisoners we've deemed mentally deficient.
"We thought we were helping them, that such broken souls might actually be mended in the asylum where they'd merely be fodder for sane prisoners otherwise. I can only hope this obsession of Crove's only means he's neglected his charges, and not ... used them in some way to forward his goals."
[sblock=ooc]I like to think I'm nice, but I'm not that nice. No map for you, I'm afraid. Rylidak does know the way, however.
Below is the level up and new stat block for her. I'm okay with swapping out her new spell or feat if you guys want, but you'll need to do that before you leave the inn. I believe I read right and you're heading out today, correct? So used spells / slots remain used, though any new ones you gained from leveling are available.[/sblock]
