Deacon grunts as Wik whispers his warning. He wasn't so sure of this one.
The soldier shakes the thought off as he listens the the exchange between the scholar and the rest. It certainly didn't sound pleasant. He would have dismissed it as rumor and hearsay, had such things not turn out to be true with surprising frequency. "Thanks for the warning regardless; I'll do what I can if we find anything noteworthy." He looks towards Brook, awaiting his thoughts.

Miranda considered the man's warnings. His hints didn't seem terribly familiar, but she had learned many things over the years...

"Speak with Anders?" Thaddeus scratches his head. "You'd have to use magic, or travel to the capital." He shrugs. "If you want to take the trouble, you can, but I doubt he'd have more to tell you. All of the scholars are guessing on this. That's why the information you can bring back is so important!"
"Oh! If you do find something like what I described, please try to bring back some kind of proof. No one will believe me otherwise. And thank you so much for doing this! I must get back to my shop. Curious Cole's--you can find me there." With that, Thaddeus begins to back away.
[sblock=Brook]You recall a cult dedicated to a being called the Elder Elemental Eye that seems to fit. Many of their temples have bizarre designs in purple and gold, and there is supposed to be some kind of taboo associated with the Elder Elemental Eye's true identity. The Cult of the Elder Elemental Eye is linked to the infamous Temple of Elemental Evil. Little is known of their current activities; the cult operates clandestinely and reliable information is scarce.[/sblock]

Wik finds himself mimicking Thaddeus' head scratching gesture and stops himself. Though he is more confused than ever. "We'll get right on that. We can't let a little thing like a Giant invasion get in the way of good scholarship now can we? Curious Cole's got it. Thank you for your time, now we really should get back to planning our defense of the realm." He figures his sarcasm is lost on the fellow and nods politely before turning away.

Still somewhat uncertain about his companions, Brook decides to keep his suspicions to himself for the moment.
"Thanks for sharing your concerns with us Thaddeus, although I wouldn't consider a temple to Bane to be all that sinister, after all you will find many soldiers praying at his shrines before heading out to combat the menace of the giants. That said we shall watch out for more gaudy decorations."
Brook moves slightly away from the group, close enough that he can overhear any conversations but not so close that he would be expected to join in and meditates on his suspicions.

Deacon sees Brook moving to the side and follows him off a ways, before lowering his voice so that only the two of them can hear it.
"So, Brook, it's been a while since we traveled together. What do you think of our company?" The soldier had his own doubts about them, but he was looking for some confirmation before he voiced them himself. "Seem able and trustworthy enough?"

Aelar kept quite but listened to everything said. So many words to such an obvious problem. Removal of the giants will prevent further destructions.

Brook gives the assembled group a thoughtful glance, taking in equipment and mannerisms while considering Deacon's question.
"Our companions are unknown to me, but they certainly seem equipped to do the job and their movements are those of veterans. As for their abilities in battle, I can't judge that until I have seem them in action, and I am sure they are thinking the same about us."
The shifter glances at his friend then continues "However, I do feel more secure knowing that you will be by my side."
