"The disappearances, yes," he replies somberly to your questions. "There's not too much more to tell. Several people have been disappearing over the last few weeks. People just up and vanish from their homes in the middle of the night, with no sign of break-in, no sign of struggle...just, the place is looted and the people are gone. The town guard hasn't been able to solve the mystery, and people are really beginning to feel on edge. It's like no place is secure." Ruphus continues, visibly growing more emotional, "The disappearances from the orphanage, though...well, that was the last straw as far as Mistress Urikas was concerned. I mean...it had only been adults up until that point...and that's bad enough. But innocent children? We knew the church had to get involved, then. Someone's got to do something to put a stop to it! Of course...we also seem to have made someone rather unhappy in doing so."  The others make their farewells with Toskar, as he returns to his shift at The Tipped Tankard. It's a walk of only a few blocks from the tavern to your destination. The two-story church of St. Cuthbert, its white marble walls suffused with veins of vivid blue, stands in stark contrast to the buildings of bare black stone that flank it on the north end of Obsidian Avenue. A pair of white marble statues depicting armored warriors stand on either side of the temple's heavy oaken door. Each of the statues raises a great mace to the darkening sky. Above the door's marble architrave are boldly inscribed the following words in Common: WITHIN LAW LIVES HOPE. "Do you have time to come inside and meet with Mistress Urikas?" invites Ruphus. Responses/Actions?</blockquote>
