OOC: sorry, things unexpectedly got busy.
Hoegor
Hearing Deirdre's words, Hoegor pulls up and slows Godsfoot down, turning the horse around and calling to the dogs. What are they sniffing at he wonders, seeing their unusual attention off to the sides. The wolves were further off I thought... He will return back to the group if unimpeded.

The party regroups and continues, though for the next few hours they catch glimpses of movement at the edges of their vision, and the dogs and horses seem on edge through the entire trip. The finally, however, arrive at their destination.
The appearance of the temple itself is a sudden event, with nothing to tell that you are closing in on it, it appears very ghostly when you all come close enough that the temple seems to jump out at you, suddenly visible through the dense rain. The horses and dogs seem to still be jittery, it must be the temple. Hoegar is certain that the wolves stopped following you half an hour back (As it was then that the horses calmed, and the dogs stopped sniffing), but the animals are now acting up again, this time shying from the temple.
Deirdre can sense a lingering evil over the whole area, and the rest of you get a general sense of foreboding as you enter the temple grounds.
there is but one building still standing that you can see, a domed thing 10 feet tall and about 30 feet to a side.

Hoegor remains mounted as the rest of the party draw up alongside himself and Dierdre. "I would agree normally. Close enough that Rocheleen can see the temple, and anything that comes or goes and with plenty of firewood to keep the wolves away from the horses at night, unless Rocheleen has other methods to do so at her disposal.
"But given the currrent boldness of the wolves, and the difficulty of maintaining a fire in this rain, perhaps we should consider the idea of making camp in the building. I suspect that most of the work is going to be done underground. We have the afternoon left to us, we should use it to clear the building above ground and secure it."
OOC: Met the wolves an hour after breakfast, then travelled a few more hours before coming to the temple. Is that right?

Deirdre raises her voice a little as she replies to the barbarian: "We should build camp where we can get some rest. I am unable to rest here and I doubt Jeremy will find any solitude around here either. I don't know how the others feel like camping at a hounted place, but I doubt any of them is eager to. We should be able to find ourselves a spot with no wolves without too much troubles, shouldn't we?"

Hoegor draws a deep breath and makes to reply before suddenly clamping closed his mouth. The muscles in his jaw work for a moment before he releases the breath slowly.
"Perhaps you are right, paladin. But we have some hours of daylight left, let us use them to scout out the grounds and possibly even establish control of the building above ground. If we need to we can fall back and pitch camp later.
"Two parties, one going around the perimeter to the right, the other to the left. We can meet on the other side, where we will more than likely shoot each other as we come out of the mists. OK, not a great idea. Perhaps it would be better if I went alone, or with one other. We could be back in thirty minutes. If we start screaming, you could come and rescue us, or me ... if you felt so inclined that is."
Under his breath Hoegor mutters to himself, "It would be so much easier if we were all barabrians. Everyone would just let out a great warcry and we would all just rush in ... "

The small halfling dismounts from her pony and looks around.
"I can search for any possible traps. This is where I can be of most use at the moment."
She looks to the others.

"Okay, let's explore the area for now, but I still strongly suggest we find our campside elsewhere. Jillian, I doubt there are traps here out in the open. At the entrances they would be likely, but we shouldn't mess with that yet. But sure, look around. Take care, come back or yell if there are troubles."
Deirdre leads Dana over to Rocheleen, and stralls over the site, trying to get a global picture of the layout.
