[QUOTE="Qik, post: 5873767, member: 6673727"] [b]Act I[/b] [sblock=Audra & Elenka]In the aftermath of the fall of the Temple of the Living God, Audra and Elenka made sure to enjoy their down time. Although Martna was a much smaller city than Venza, it nevertheless had its own comforts and experiences to offer.

In short, it was a pleasant resolution to what had been a mostly hair-raising experience. Still, all good things must come to an end, and the two eventually found themselves inquiring about passage back to Venza.
