He peers through a window, stealthily, concentrates, and then looks very surprised. Perhaps a bit frightened. He then hurries back the way he came, still sending Pavel and the hut an occasional look until he rounds a nearby building.It's morning, and although cloudy and cold the weather is otherwise pleasant. The night was at least warm in the Rezini's house, although not very comfortable. The village is a bit sleepy this deep into winter, with few people venturing outside their homes.Slostav is somewhat relieved to send you off on your way, pointing the way to Grozny's house. Before you leave, his son discreetly approaches Mallok and hands him a small tangle of leaves and flowers, tied with a thin leather cord. "If you meet the princess, give her this. Tell her I made it myself." He quickly looks at his parents to make sure they didn't notice, and pretends to attend to the goats.Grozny's house is not exceptional in any way, indeed all the houses in the village are remarkebly consistent in build (not identical, but very similar in size and construction). It is near the forest's edge, not far from the Rezini's. When you approach, you find an old woman waiting for you, sitting before the doorway. With an emotionless face she motions to the side, where you see a man sitting a few hundred feet away, right next to the forest's trees. "He is waiting for you."Grozny, sits inside a circle of crushed petals. He is busy chanting prayers in Slavic, but stops as you near him before you can make them out. Laying a bone wand capped with a leather pouch in his lap, he simply stares at you as you approach.OOC: The house is in the direction Pavel saw the man walking, and the man was Grozny.</blockquote>
