       [br][br]In an RPG all the player characters are important, and
       it's time for our rogue to shine. I step to the side to allow
       her to do her thing, but I grip my sword and shield tightly,
       just in case. "Move with grace, my lady." I say to the thief
       with a smile.

       I simply nod to our leader and float in to take a peek.
       Once in there's a gargantuan, inky, yet anatomically correct
       heart swaying gently over the table as shadow and bitter chill
       pump out if it with each ka-thump, ka-thump. On either side, a
       black hooded figure kneels, muttering toward the heart,
       presumably praying to it.
       Just as quietly as I crept in, I tiptoe out, motioning everyone
       to move back a bit. Just in case the beings inside aren't as
       focused as they seem, then softly report what I've seen.

       He leans back supporting one foot with the other, torch crossed
       with his arms. He gives everyone a tight smile, at watches as
       the rogue as they call her slips ahead like darkness
       itself.Clearly, she earned her title well.
       This place was all new with him, but he watches Eve's expression
       as the report is given. For now, he holds quiet.

       "An atomically correct heart, that people are praying at, and
       that is where this cold feeling of despair is coming from?" She
       looked at Lainer for a long moment as she chewed nervously on
       her lower lip, and then looked at Eve. "I have never heard of
       anything like this before, or even read about it. What we do
       from here is up to you of course."

       I frown. “I’ve never heard of anything like it, either,” I say.
       Nameright might have, but he’s not piping up right now because
       he’s ever so useful. Sarcasm dot jpg.
       The idea that there is someone in here doing this to my home,
       and probably responsible for my family going missing, has me
       shaken.
       To my core. But I keep it under wraps that I’m frightened. I
       truck on despite that fear.
       That fear makes me angry.

       alchemist. I kneel down and call on the mountain cold, breathing
       in and out, in and out, in...then I exhale a cold breath that I

       time a pair of crude swords now sit on the floor. I hand one to
       Lanie, and one to Jenessa. Even if they do not plan to fight,
       they do need something to protect themselves.[br][br]Once done I
       ready myself. "I am ready when everyone else is." I say then
       stand facing the door, sword ablaze laying across the top of my

       And I see Eve's Determined Face™ and am taking it completely at
       face value. Not that I really have any reason to do otherwise.
       Katherine just keeps breaking out the nifty tricks. When she
       hands me the sword, I heft it a bit and turn it in my hand. I
       can probably manage to use it to block a blow and probably put
       the pointy end in the other guy, but that's about the extent of
       my expertise. Hopefully, that's all that will be needed.
       "Thanks."

       Maybe he's just not as invested as the others, but he doesn't
       react to the way Eve says they die. He's not sure whether they
       are people or creatures at this point. Monsters can pray. He
       draws his gun, shifting the torch to the other hand. Seeing
       Jenessa getting handed the sword, though, he cleared his throat.
       "Do you want the gun, Jenessa? I am accustomed somewhat with
       swords."
       They had been together for seven months, and he's never asked if
       she can use a sword?

       She nodded at Eve words. She had never even been in any sort of
       fight before, and here she was standing with a group of people
       ready to go into battle and possibly kill other people. Bad
       people  who had possibly hurt Eve family she told herself
       mentally. She watched as Catherine created two blades from
       nothing but her breath clearly impressed. When she took the
       sword however it was clear she had never even held one.
       She shook her head at Phoebus. "I will keep the sword. I am less
       likely to shoot someone accidently with the sword. I think I
       will hang back a bit though."

       It looks like everyone’s ready to go.
       “Alright, let’s do this,” I say, raising my shield and charging
       into the room with Catherine.
