Marda and Aaron are successful in their search of the upper levels and soon return with a weary looking gnome. Rivereye looks excatly like the illusion of himself but without the cold. As he and the others descend the stairs the lantern archon hovers up and then out a window.
Shade makes for the door immediately and watches as the glowing dot heads further in towards the center of the city. She doesn't find any sign of the elf that escaped out the door. Returning glumly back to the others she stands silently as she watches the others talk.
"You saved this old gnomes life, and for that I am surely grateful. But wear is Peppin?" Rivereye asks still rubbing his hands from where they were bound not minutes before.
Torrent looks uneasy for a moment then replies, "I am sorry, but Peppin was found dead two nights ago. And the Resistance set up for me to contact you in his place. And fearing for my safety also, they asked around for help, which comes from these fine folk."
"Marda Hammersong," she says nodding to the young female dwarf. "Her family has been in the resistance since day one, and we are very lucky that they have."
"Aaron servant of Gracenyes," Torrent says patting the inquistor on the shoulder. "He was sent by the church, but I'm not sure if it is to watch Marda's back more than anything." She shrugs not bothered by the fact if he is or isn't.
"Barrik, hmm... who was suppose to be the muscle of this little excursion, but it seems there is more to him than meets the eye at first glance," Torrent says and then smiles. "I still owe him the information about his family, maybe after we find this imposter first."
"Fantalass..." Torrent starts to say, but stops as Rivereye visibly becomes frightened. After a moment he shakes his head and looks a little more in control. "Sorry, sorry it's just those elves attacked me and I remembered fearing I was going to die. I know you were not with them but..." he stops looking a little ashamed. "No problem Rivereye, we all understand. Shade is the last member of are party and about somewhere. She's an elf also but keeps to the shadows enough that you wouldn't know it." Torrent says calmly to the little gnome.
"What of your mission and the information regarding the Ragesian army?" Torrent asks.
"Taken, the case I had all the information in was taken by a couple other elves who were with the illusionist. They took it but not before I heard them mention something about Gabal's school. I did manage to convience them that the case was trapped and should they open it without the password that all the contents would be destroyed. It was a lie but it stopped them from getting at the papers inside right then and there. They probably have taken the case to Gabal's school to try and bypass the fake trap."
"Then we need to head there everyone and without delay, come on." Torrent says heading for the steps.
