The two elves nods at the half-orc and steers the small vessel towards the shore. Both elves are rowing surprisingly fast and the group reach the shore in no time. Solomon and Dai steps down in the water first and guide slowly the boat towards the shore.
The night is hot for early spring. none of the moons are full and the night is quite dark. Everything around them is quite dark, except the flamming city in front of them. On their right the river is calm and on their left they can hear small animal sounds coming from the dark forest. In front of them no light can be seen on the shore other then the burning city.

As Xavier enters the hallway leading to her cabin. he can hear the priestress perform some kind of ritual song. The priestress doesn't sing very well but her voice is powerfull and can be heard through out the corridor. Xavier can't understand exactly what she says nor recognise her language. Xavier notices a few curious and nervous elf around the cabin. A few of them have their hands on their weapons and keep a nervous eye on her door, as if they were ready to jump on whatever could come out of the cabin. As Xavier approaches they seems to relax, the paladin's mere presence seems to reassure them.
One of them, close by, his back against the narrow wooden corridor wall whispers to Xavier. "Sir, you have any clue what is she saying? For some reason it doesn't sound good. I think we should intervene before we are all cursed"
