Within minutes the group had finished the food and had left the Dyke behind them, making their way slowly across to the Collisieum district. It took the motley crew several hours to make their way to the church, mainly due to Yu'olan's poor navigating of the streets, but it wasn't long before they could see the shattered remains of the suburb stretched before them, dozens upon dozens of buildings that had been left after the revolution that had torn the neighbourhood apart. Hundreds of people could easily be seen in the partially burnt or collapsing houses that had survived the worst of the uprising, all of them desperate to find their own little hole away from the brutal remains of their lives. The priests of Urbanus had slowly begun to help the people of Collisiuem to rebuild their lives, scouring the city for supplies to assist those in need of their services. In the centre of the better part of the suburb stood the small chapel, surrounded by restored buildings of dubious strength where people huddled inside in the warmth of their new homes rather than soaking their miserable lives away in the rain that pelted the district on nearly a daily occasion. Through the pouring rain and dark skies that threatened to plunge the city into an eternal night, Ba'aktar watched the two halflings run into a nearby alleyway, making their way swiftly to the other end of the neighbourhood where they could approach the chapel from another angle. Yu'olan waits until they are away and looks down the muddy street towards the small two-story building that holds the group's goal. The building would hold no more than six to ten rooms at best, with only a handful of chambers upstairs by the look of the structure. It would take less than an hour to thoroughly search the place, and less than ten minutes to root out all the priests inside. "So big boy," Yu'olan smiles. "Would ya like to do tha honours?" [/QUOTE]
