Pyior stands on the stool, reaches up and whispers in Ys-Korros' ear, "Please don't misunderstand me, friend. I'm not being unkind for unkindness' sake. I think it's quite likely the Litorian cult may have sent him to follow us and discover our intentions."

"Oh..." Ys-Korros says a little too loudly, only know understanding a little bit about where his little friend was going with that. He nods slowly and tries to whisper back to Pyior, "I will follow your lead in this, but" then a louder to the room, "Come lets enjoy a meal together."

Pyior stares at Ritsar, thoughts churning, and then gives a single nod seconds later.
While he has clearly not warmed up, his curiosity gets the best of him and he asks, "What is this heart of darkness for which you are searching?"

Ritsar
Looking over at Pyior with that 'gathering your thoughts look' "Well, the storytellers and wise old ones have told the tale of a hero of my tribe seeking the heart. It is supposed to test your soul for fear. There is a great ceremony that you learn upon viewing it and when you complete the ceremony your soul is tested."
Ritsar frowns slightly. "The real trick is finding it. In the tale the heart is guarded by the memory masters and the path leads by those that follow the way of the staff."
Ritsar spreads his hands apart indicting the rooster "I was hoping somebody here would be able to help me. If that fails I am going to head over to the school directly." Looking at Pyior "Since you asked, I guess you don't know where it is?"

Burt's demeanor turns decidedly more solemn at the mention of the Heart of Night.
"So, you intend to test your mettle against the Heart of Night...Kisthmetch," he says. "Well, you need not worry about finding the place - it's not that difficult to locate. A trail leads west from town all the way to the entrance of the ruins.
"The difficulty is in reaching that place alive. The journey generally takes two days and leads up into the Bitter Peaks. Any of a number of foul creatures live in the foothills and will not hesitate to attack a lone traveller.
"Most who go there travel in groups for safety. Once you arrive, however, numbers will matter little. The nature of Kisthmetch is very personal, and strength of arm or spell will matter little. You can take my word on this...'tis the voice of experience."

Damn! Of course the mountains would be dangerous! And you aren't around to keep me from trouble Charon.
Looking over at Burt with a pleading look "Do you know any groups heading up that way or any that just left? Maybe something from the school? I can offer my services as a warrior and my skill at tracking is steadily improving."
Ritsar looks pretty dejected at Burt's pronouncment. He mostly just plays with the stew instead of eating after his little outburst.

Danwyn waits for Pyior to make his decision about the new comer, while finishing his meal.
OOC:I hate to tell Pyior what to do. But we do need to get this show on the road, and the DM did asks us nicely in the OOC to admit him to the group.
I realize that was a ways back in time, so I thought I would remind you. On the other hand Gideon, it might be to everyone's advantage if you channeled Charon more. Anyway lets try to get this party on the road as it were.
