Ghleve looks somewhat less morose as he ascends to the second floor of his shop/home.A few moments later, Ghelve descends the stairs once more, carrying a small satchel.  What's remarkable is that the gnome is now some 2-3 feet shorter!  In response to puzzled expressions, Ghelve answers, "Well, I didn't really think my stilts would do me much good now.  I'm ready to go to the temple when you are."[OOC:  I'll move the group forward to the Temple of St. Cuthbert as soon as loose ends get wrapped up here...any further conversation, what to do with the unconscious skulk, etc.]</blockquote>
