To Khasar, then turning to Zanas: “Of course, my friend. I respect and admire your restraint in this matter. I dare say it may have demonstrated more strength of resolve than battling the guardian ever could. I agree our priority now is the restoration of our comrade. All other matters are secondary. Let us make haste.”

The tiefling’s face contorts to anger at the bad news – almost immediately then regaining composure.

. o O (Double damn! I’ve no reason to doubt the priests’ motives, but they may simply lack the capacity to restore Gron to the world of the living … or they may be bound by some dogma that prevents it. No. At least this Seren fellow seems genuinely saddened that Gron has not been restored. Hmm. I will have to contact Gron myself in the near future to get the clear truth. It seems inconceivable that he would choose to leave this grave task yet undone.)

Qayan turns to the group. “We’ve several tasks to complete, and several options open to us. I would like to finish exploring the Gate, but after that I have few long-range plans. Valarion, I will join you – if you would have me. I thirst for adventure. And this last endeavor has been a bitter brew. I would slake it with a draught of something fresh.”

Then, nodding and bowing in respect to Seren, Qayan takes the dwarf aside and speaks. “We’ve recently come across another ‘guardian’ of sorts. But instead of banishment, this one may serve willingly.” Pointing to the mimic, the tiefling continues. “This chest is actually a clever beast that can change its form to resemble nearly anything. Our recent expedition and subsequent purging of the evils surrounding the Gate of Sarbreen have displaced it. I know that your temple likely has wealth and power that needs protection and stewardship. I would highly recommend this guardian for your consideration. It is strong and able … and it would work for … well … regular meals.” The tiefling smiles disarmingly.
