"If the Yuan-ti wish us to stay and help them, then I for one will lend my blade to the defence." Jansson replies to Osius. "But, it may be a better idea to get the Eye and the Staff away from the village. Once we've gone, the illithid may well lose interest in Jhessail and her people."
 

Syld comes out of his meditation.
"We owe that much for the yuan-ti. Besides, I don't think we should have too much trouble. According to the knowledge passed to me by my teacher, the illithid mainly use their slaves in areas they don't know very well.
On the other hand, they might use the illithikin and even come themselves if they deem the prize good enough."
 

After the rest of the group finishes their meditations, the wall opposite of the archway leading to your rooms opens, revealing a doorway, through which Jhessail enters, the treaty rolled up in her hand.

"We do not have much time." She says shortly as she comes into the room. "One of our priestsss hasss ressseived a visssion of the illithid attack to come. Ssshe believesss it will come before the sssun isss a quarter through the sssky."

"We had feared thisss to be true, and ssso we reviewed the treaty lassst night. Everything ssseemsss to be in order..." As she speaks, she hands the treaty to Syld.

She then pauses for a moment. "We have an idea of what isss coming... the illithid will be holding little back. They will do all they can to take the Eye of Imzil, asss well asss any other partsss of the Psssionicle that they can find."

"You mussst go." She says simply. "Now, before the attack beginsss. We will lead you back to your carriagesss."

She then leaves the temple, pausing at the entryway to ensure that you are following her.
 

"Right... I think I've seen illithid before. No wait... that was an illithiad. No... illithidking... no wait, Illithidkin?!" Well what have it."

Animus grabs up whatever is loose (equipment, eye of imzil, other gear, food, anything that we need that he doesn't want someone else forgetting, with the only accpetion being the staff which he won't go near.)

"Let's get out of here... and maybe we should take Torishel... we brought her here afterall... and it seems odd to return without her... oh wait, can't speak..."

Animus slaps himself upside the head and like the extremely quick reactionary person he is, takes off for the fresh air outside.
 


Osius

"My meager belongings are already packed. I don't think we're ready to face an illithid assault."

Osius quickly joins everyone else preparing to leave.
 

Syld takes the treaty and puts it in his belt pouch. He goes to get his backpack and weaponry, checking that the Eye is still in his pouch as he goes.. He then follows Jhessail.
"Are you sure you can handle the illithids? We don't want to loose an ally as soon as we acquire one. And I'm personally worried about your well being."
 


Jhessail shakes her head in the negative as you go. "No, we will not need your help. Though it isss appresssiated that you are willing to risssk your livesss to help usss, we believe that the illithid will flee onssse they sssee that there isss nothing to gain here - they won't take heedlesss risssksss.. That isss why you mussst take the Eye far from here, and quickly."
