Saving private Rupert

by Nepheri

Trying to think clearly here... We needed a plan to get Rupert out if it wasn't already his time to move on. It wasn't, it turns out, though I do find his apparent arrogance about that fact somewhat annoying.
 
Sneaking in under the Temple of the Harvest, a silence spell, good intel on the layout, and a dwarf enabled us to make a hole and get our fighter out through his floor. Of course, to me - that can't be enough. This heretic organisation needs to be eradicated. They alter the natural passage of life to death both by preventing death and by feeding those who pervert death by their very existence. ...Like my father.
 
Breaking into the upper floor, we pretty soon simply attacked. I should possibly not have run into the fray as much as I did, however. the Fireball Suffrax had stored in my rin turned out to be very useful. So was the poisonous cloud they used on us... My thread was nearly at its end. But I made it, and Ellywick used a cure wounds spell on me. I didn't have the heart to tell her that even using a weaker version of the spell, I'm likely to heal more than she would...
 
But we have someone to interrogate at least. And if she's very, very helpful, her death will be quick and painless.
