Ilshana laughs.

"There's not going to be enough room on the bench here," she remarks, and also shakes Dev's hand. "I wonder how we'll know when we're all here? D'ya think the Seal there will sense us all together and burst open to let us defeat Evil once and for all?"

She glances at the runed cover stone in the middle of the plaza measuringly.

Silvanyck Wood Elf Bard/Warlock

Somewhat overwhealmed, Silvanyck recovers quickly and greets Ilshana formally in Elvish. Then he takes Ununkua’em offered hand returning a firm if much smaller grip and continues, "Silvanyck Greenbough of Lethyr". He begins, "It sounds as if the visions provided by our respective deities are similar, and I do recognize you both from my dreams." He turns as the newcomer joins the conversation. "I am pleased to meet you Devona Rift priest of Xeros, Dev. I am Silvanyck Greenbough of the Lethy. While I am no priest it seems the First of the Seldarine has seen fit to call me for this matter." At Ilshana's last comment, the elf unconciously looks at the ground at their feet. "That would be a very direct resolution, but it wouldn't make for a very good story to tell afterwards now would it?" He glances up looking about for others, "besides, I remember more faces from my dreams."
 

Looking over at the stone in the middle of the plaza, Ununkua'em considers it briefly then replies, "My guess would be no. Valadis said I would find answers here and while an opponent would be an answer of a sort, I don't think he would send us here unprepared."

"No, I would guess that a guide, be it a sign or a person, shall make itself known when we have fully assembled."

"In my dream, I remember heads beyond counting, but a only a few faces were close enough, clear enough to remember specifically. Though the prospect of marching to war in an army of light holds some appeal to me, I doubt our company will be more than ten."
 

Silvanyck

Considering for a moment the Elf replies, "I would have to agree, I can't remember even a dozen faces clearly. I expect our company will be less than that."
 

"Oh I was supposed to remember all those faces...," she seems sad, "Oh well I found what I was looking for! I just listened for others talking about that cooky dream," she says with a smile.
 

Silvanyck

"Yes, so far our quest has been relatively simple, but I have a feeling that things will start to get more challenging soon. I wonder if the place in our dreams is even on this plane of existence?"
 

"Speaking of the dream, does anyone have any idea what that was? Or where it was? I could see it from a great height, but only that it was in the mountains."
 

Silvanyck

"Your recollection is better than mine, I remember a metal framework adorned with heads above a pit with a horrible mouth and then nothing..."
 

"You didn't see the souls being consumed by the structure? Or the thousands of souls being drawn into it?"

"I dreamt of a structure with animated severed heads on it, a countless number of them. I saw my head and then a shadow beast arose from the center of the structure and consumed me. I then began to rise and souls begin to be consumed, their energy funnelled into the center of the structure from where the beast came. I continue to rise and I can see more and more souls being drawn to it. I got a brief glimpse of a fortress in the mountains before it was obscured by the sheer numbers of souls being drawn into it. Like I told Ilshana, it was as if all the souls everywhere were being drawn to the constuct."

"Did your dreams differ? Were you not visited by a visage of your chosen deity?"
 

"Mine had all that consuming in it too!" Dev gets a big smile on her face, "I still don't know what it means." Dev takes the pack off her back and sits down on the dusty dirt road. Kicking her legs out she begins again, "After all that creepy stuff, Xeros visited me and told me to come here. So where does everyone hail from?" Dev takes out a stick and begins to tap out a beat pattern on the ground.
