Waiting until behind closed doors to continue the conversation in speculation."I noticed that young man was pleased about something as well. I just can't figure out what. "I was more concerned with trying to determine why the Captain is feeling guilty. Hopefully, it's just because these things are happening and not that he had any hand in facilitating them."As to your question, Jaroth, the second summoning was done by someone far more knowledgeable than the gentlemen in the first cabin. From the nature and position of the sacrifice, it was a ritual no novice would even be aware of, let alone hope to profit from."When we tracked the fiend to the lower deck, we were confronted by a deep magical darkness. Vadric, Anniston, and Bertrand were able to summon light enough to pierce the darkness briefly so we could see what we faced. But before that, we could hear chanting in the darkness in support of the fiend."I dropped a burst of sound on the chanters which may have led to their losing control of whatever magics they were summoning for when the fiend left, the chanters appeared to have been slain by the feedback of losing control of their magics."The fiend, when it was revealed, appeared to have been one of a type I believe are called 'Deathblight' demons. No offense to our faithful servants of Light, but I don't believe we drove the fiend off. I believe it decided to leave rather than continue the confrontation. It also stated it would remember us for a future confrontation."That is as much as I know of the events. If the others would care to submit their impressions, perhaps we can get a better understanding of tonights events."</blockquote>
