"I will grant him sanctuary. I think nobody would question the right of the church of Chrystalla the Merciful to harbor a person in need, no matter who he may be. Besides, that should give you more freedom in the political scenes, that you surely know better than me. I won't let them judge him, if that's their intention, but I wouldn't hide him unless it's strictly necessary. Rumors of suspicion may spread if he hides, and people wouldn't believe to his words."
 

"Very well then, it is agreed. I respectfully appreciate your decision and thank you for your foresight. You are indeed an asset to your Goddess, and if their is anyway that I or my church can assist you, all you have to do is ask. I shall bear witness to your offer of sanctuary for the former Emperor. I think that I shall also ask my Mistress to do likewise."
 

Now that that is out of the way we must go to the council. making them wauit any longer can only cause trouble. Tal moves to the door. where exactly is the council located?
 

You all know that the council lives in the Palace at the center of the city, which is where some of you were heading before the emporer made his first appearance being chased by the Fetchers. Will is quiet through all of your talking, nodding as you decide his fate.
 

"I guess that we shouldn't keep the council waiting any longer," says Ariel. "Eventually they may just send some soldiers here to ensure that we have no trouble finding them. I suggest that we make our way, as Tal has suggested."
 

Finnegan nods, feeling like a man caught in a Bad dream, 'Aye, the Council seems our only recourse at this moment...'
 

Auld seems confused as well. Things have turned around so quickly - they are now helping the man they have sought for so long.

He looks at Finn. "Redirect it, lad - whatever we need to do to find the source of the evil will be worth it. I know it seems hard, but this man was not the source. We must remember that above all else. And then we must drive this Beast from existence."
 

Ariel will inform her Mistress as to what is going on and then suggest that they leave for the council. "The council is going to be very angry about the offer of sanctuary, so expect them to try to throw some curves at us, to keep us off of our feet. I believe that they will feel that someone needs to pay for what the former Emperor has done. It may be us since we are now protecting him."
 

Auld nods. "And I suspect that our choices may run to accepting his punishment, or finding another to punish. I fear we will be seeking out this Beast ere long."
