[QUOTE="Festy_Dog, post: 2404542, member: 2561"] Ba'aktar was relieved. Finally they could retrieve the money and take their leave, then no more nice but creepy children, for better or worse. This wan't to be the case though, and when the children seemed to flee upstairs Ba'aktar's first reaction was that the treasure room was trapped and they were getting out of the blast range. He was ready to sprint, but when it was a small bag of coins rather than a wall of flame that emerged from the open door he figured it was alright to stick around. Nonetheless, it wasn't the vast treasure he had expected it to be. He crouched down to inspect the small sum of coins while the others ranted. "Better to not be messin' with the young 'uns I advise," he let the halflings know, "Me thinks they didn't need those priests lookin' after them. Hell, it could've been them lookin' after the elderly priests. Yu'olan, you remember when I warned you about this place being full of spell-slinging kiddies? I don't think that guess was too far from the truth. Those kids seem to have strange powers, ones that I didn't mess with after gettin' a taste, so we could be best off jus' cuttin' our losses and findin' somewhere we know we can actually earn some coin from rather than messin' with things beyond our understanding." Ba'aktar's thoughts went to the children who were now upstairs, or possibly outside the building making their escape already. What kind of things did they have to see in order to make it to the door?
