Burian steps into the kitchen, while Stanlslava, Brata, and some others are coming towards the house.

The kitchen has a fireplace and a chimney, and an oven next to it. The sound Burian heard was coming from it. As Burian enters the room, the door to the oven opens, and he can see the following creature:

Burian immediately recognizes the creature as a Domovoi--a home spirit see here for more info (the info there may be considered common knowledge by all slavic characters; in this setting, they are not necessarily physically present in all homes, but they are known to be so).

Physically, the creature, seen in the image above, is a small fey about 2' in height, with a shaggy appearance. He appears to have been hiding in the oven, and looks slightly frightened.
 

Brata Scythor, "Slavic" Druid 2 / Sorcerer 1

When Brata rounds the corner and sees Burian in the kitchen with the Domovoi, he stops in his tracks and his arms up beside him, to motion to the others to stop as well. He'll stand in the doorway, and try to motion the others back, so that they don't scare the spirit while Burian talks to it.

Burian carefully sets his axe and shield down just outside the door with brata, moving slowly as not to frighten the Domovoi. Burian kneels down and bows his head in respect to the spirit, carefully gesturing him forth from the stove. "Dedushka, we are friends. We have come to find what has befallen this home"

Stanislava follows suit and sheathes her sword. She is puzzled as well, but assumes nothing is awry inside. She awaits outside and Keeps an eye on the horses and surrondings.

THe Domovoi initially looks at Burian very timidly; he clearly was trying to hide from the attackers who were here a short time ago. However,he gradually loosens up after hearing the Woodsman's warm welcome. The Domovoi stands up and slowly comes out of the oven, holding one arm to his chest. Burian can now see that the arm is cut badly. The Domovoi is still tense, and appears to be choking back tears. He responds to Burian:

Privetsviye Gospodin!

I tried to help my master, but there were so many of those creatures! They killed him like a savage animal, those beasts.

Are they gone now?

The Domovoi looks at Burian, then seems to nod thankfully.

Burian bends down and reaches toward the Domovoi's wounded arm and touches him carefully.

d8 (5) + 3 = 8pts

The wound on the Domovoi's arm seems to to disappear.

Thank you, Gospodin!

My name is Slava. The attackers broke into the house suddenly as the master was turning in. I tried to aid him, but things just happened too fast. When I saw my master was done for, I fled to the kitchen and hid.

I'm afraid of what they did to the temple. I pray Mokosh didn't allow them to violate it's sanctity.


If asked about the attackers, Slava relates the following.

There were 4 of those creatures, I think, orcs, I believed, though I had never seen one. One of them,however, was constantly hooded and might have been something else. The creatures seemed to be lead by a man. I didn't see the man well, he also wore a hood.

Have you come to try to track down these fowl beasts?
