>>5427551The elf warriors whom you have assembled wait for you outside. You greet them and, in keeping with the religious bent of your mission, lead the already-faithful in prayer. The uninitiated, the passersby, and the eyes of the other houses watch with confusion and wariness, and a few even begin to mock your piety… But not too loudly, not within reach.

Without any specific protection or vigor granted by any god of Darkness or of Light, you lead your elven expedition in the direction of the funerary caves of the Drow. Only when to draw near enough that the broad-strokes instructions which Jazkarmel and her house-mother gave you lose their value do you cede to your scouts, most especially Sengar and Jhamrius, whom you have seen fight and know can be trusted well-enough between their loyalty and their fervent attention to your sermonizing—and the secret of the scaled-children, which they still keep.
How do you busy yourself during this early stage of the expedition to slay the Ghoul Supreme?
