Dead!  He’s never coming back! She says she’ll find him, but she never will!”Ladinya began stroking the destroyed woman’s cheek. “It’s okay, we’re here to help, it going to be okay, it’s going to be okay.”  Ladinya looked back to the rest of the party. “Drastic measures?” They all nodded.Ladinya stepped back and began to swirl her arms around her in a mystic motion, the air flickering with arcane energy.  “Xul Path Tal Fer AtNag Thul Xen Ar TunRag Yub Uve Zal XawCharm Person Wiz/Sor 1, Brd 1”The woman stopped crying, and smiled at everybody.“Now there.” Ladinya said. “Where did Jymmi disappear?”“He was playing down by the old mill with his friend Donnald, and he didn’t come back.”  Mrs. Olina smiled wanly.“What about Donnald?”“He’s gone too.”Milo looked up brightly.  “What do you say? Time to kick some ass!”The group stood looking at the ramshackle old mill, covered in mildew and leaning to one side like a man just kicked out of a tavern at closing hour.“I say we toss in some Alchemist’s fire, them cut down whoever runs out of the building.” Milo said.“The kids.” Nikki gently reprimanded.“Then I say Kit and I scout it out and then call for you.”“Sounds like a much better plan.”  Ladinya interjected.“Good, lets move.” Milo said grimly, hefting an ax.</blockquote>
