As Syld focuses the powers within the drilbu at the pyre, it bursts into flames. It remains ablaze for several minutes, then slowly, the flames die out. Ashes are all that remain, along with several pieces of blackened wood.
Jansson draws his sword and salutes the remains of the pyre with it. The halfling stands silently, reflecting on the quest that brought him to the village.
"We will honor your memory, Niko. Even if I didn't know you too well, I know that you were a brave gnome. Hopefully your soul is in a peaceful place."
After the pyre is down, Syld stands watching the ashes for a moment.
I assume we all head back to the temple... now, my character can't speak or communicate all that well, so let me just ask you all to motivate us to make the return trip. We really don't have anything left to do here, unless the Yuan-ti want to ask us to do something.
I agree with creamsteak. I don't really have much to do, as my CHA is an heroic 8... Really it's up to Syld to negotiate, as the Yuan-ti see him as the leader of the party.
