The original description said that the window was 'secured', which I took to mean that it was locked.Horsom stood after sliding the bed to one side with a might shove, and did a double-take as he caught the window latch out of the corner of his eye: it wasn't locked as he had first suspected. He sheepishly moved the bed back to its original position.______________________________________________"I hear your words, Brother Hengist. I am respectful of the Seven Gods, but my people have revered Celene and Herne since ancient times. We know that the gifts of the fey can be gilt with poison, and their anger can be terrible, but we know that there is a generous and kind-hearted side to them as well."______________________________________________OOC: Here also. Now I'm wondering if we'll find the remnants of a cultist tailgate party in the mill. Maybe some BBQ briquettes and a few empties rolling around on the floor. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":P" title="Stick out tongue    :P"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":P" />_____________________________________________"You're right, Fellan", spoke Horsom, "one of us should warn the Baron." He clasped the older man's arm in a warrior's grip. "I had only known you by reputation before this adventure, but now I'd be glad to call you friend. Farewell." Fellan smiled. "I as well." Fellan turned to the group: "There is still a short amount of daylight left. I will return with any news of Amalric.". With that, he headed for the door.After Fellan departed, Horsom addressed the companions. "It seems obvious that Amalric is in league with this manticore. What do you think? Are we walking into a trap if we head directly for the manticore's lair? On the other hand, we'll have to move on the Dwarfie Run eventually, so maybe sooner better than later. It is also possible that Amalric is summoning other minions, or possibly the manticore itself, to attack us in the church tonight. My strongest feeling, though, is that the mill has more secrets to reveal to us. If Amalric is tied in to this devilry, why not other villagers? The miller's manner indicated that he knew more than he was letting on." He turned to spear-wielding elf.Selanil, did your.. sponsors.. have any advice as to how to proceed?" Again, a look passed betweeen Hengist and Horsom. "In any case, a simple vote as to our course of action is the best way to resolve this in my opinion." Horsom paused. "My vote is to wait for Fellan's report, then sneak into the mill after dark."</blockquote>
