[QUOTE="High Cleric, post: 4113490, member: 58910"] Interlude The air was thick with the cloying incense. The room in the inn was darkened, lit only by a few candles, despite the late morning sun outside. Bootsy looked bored holding the brass bowl and muttered to Wencis, “I wish he would hurry up. There was this pudgy farmer’s daughter that walked by…’ At a stern glance from Celtir, the gnome suddenly noticed a dark smudge on his shoes and slopped some holy water on the floor. ‘Don’t drop the water, Boots,’ the aasimar laughed, and then quieted too. Neither noticed that elven cleric suppressed a small grin. Clearing his throat, Celtir called out to his god, Solonor, and asked for divine assistance to speak with the corpses of Xernon, the tomb raider, and his henchman, a Halfling spellcaster. He took the bowl of holy water from Bootsy and traced it over Xernon’s body. The water appeared almost fiery for a moment then faded. Celtir looked to Wencis, holding a censer of incense, and the aasimar waved it dutifully. A small moan came out of Xernon’s throat, interrupting Bootsy’s memory of this female goblin that he once came across bathing in some mud, and he started out of his reverie. The corpse of Xernon bucked once on the table and quieted. Celtir sighed. ‘Not enough strength to conquer that one,’ he whispered. Turning to his companions, he asked, ‘Do you remember how some of our spells failed against him?’ ‘Not mine!’ the gnome sorcerer giggled, then was elbowed in the ear by Wencis, who was aiming for a rib but forgot Bootsy was a gnome. Celtir looked over at the halfing corpse and grinned. ‘To the Nine Hells with it!’ he said, ‘The morning’s early…’ [/QUOTE]
