"We suspect that they will attempt to use treachery to gain access to the Baroness' presence. You will be responsible for protecting her if all goes sour. There's seven of them, but a lot more on your side. Protect the Baroness, and do not let them capture her. If it looks like she'll be captured, kill her instead. We can't afford to have her under their watch. Once you've done that, kill as many as you can, and then get out of the way of any further retaliation. Ssessarina will have the item to bring you all back here when you're done. This shouldn't take more than a couple days at best," Wode says. It's looking particularly agitated today, obviously this situation must be fairly dire, or so you think...

*In the morning, the bells ring early, calling the faithful to morning services. Loviana can wash and prepare herself, as well as having a bit of food before heading to the golden chapel hall.*
*Orshallan stood in front, seemingly no worse for the wear for the tumultuous night last night, resplendant in his golden robes. His sermon today speaks of the value of loyalty weighted against the price of integrity, seemingly targeting young men in the army or the Guard, but having far too close a conncection with last night's conversation.*
"You must always know that true integrity, the tenents of what is good and true and right, will always be the correct and lawful path. If you find yourself in a position where you must subvert the ways of light for loyalty to orders, beware. There are ways in which orders can be obeyed, but one can still cleave to the light. However, if you find yourself in an untennable position, where all paths are dark no matter where you turn, it is then that you must take a stand for the greater good in the world, no matter the cause. Heironeous rewards the valorous, especially those that have the strength to stand up for what is right."
