It takes a few minutes of going through everything, but eventually, you do find the treasure you’re seeking. Underneath the bed, in a large burlap sack, is an entire Human skeleton shuffled around like an unmade jigsaw puzzle. Adanmar is sure that this is the skeleton as he feels queasy just being near the bones, which seem to have a powerful effect against undead. With that, your goal is complete. Are you all returning to the church?

Grim walks over to his pants and puts them on and ties the rope around his waist. He then goes to the head guard, " Excuse me, I hope you don't mind me asking but how come it was so easy for a nest to form in this town?" Grim asks with complete Innocence, "I mean the guy with the weird arm said everything was fine here, is it?"
The guard who seems to be in charge places a hand on your shoulder, “And all will be well. We intend to question the owner of this establishment and prevent such things from happening.”

Bry had taken Adanmar's hand up when offered, and now stood beside Elwarith in the room. "Agreed, we need to get those back to the church. It's not long till my meeting at the estate of the..was he a duke? Or a Baron?..." Bry continues to muse as he heads towards the stairs
And so, you all return to St. Andral’s Church. This area of town has become silent, possibly in reaction to the noise that echoed out from your battle. However, you triumphantly swing the church doors open and see Ireena conversing with the priest, who seems to be both chatting with Ireena and examining her wounds. The priest, Lucian takes notice of you all and you see hope return to his eyes. He runs up to you and and shakes each of your hands vigorously, sometimes hugging. He wipes tears from his eyes, “Thank you all... you have no idea what this means to me. It’s because of you that I can be certain that my congregation, my family, will be safe.“ He takes the bag of bones and beckons for you all to follow him to the basement.

"Wait...didn't the last time we go down there, he had some sort of vampire thrall locked up that almost killed us?" Elwarith hesitates to head down the stairs.
"And we still need to figure out how to get you to that meeting but not all by yourself.....I trust that man about as far as I can throw George.....which to say isn't very far"
"Definitely not as far as 'George throw you'" Bry says, dropping the tone of his voice for the last few words to match George's voice. "Maybe we could disguise you as some Shrubbery?"
As you all continue down the stairs, Lucian leads you to an open stone coffin. It looks like it’s been forcibly pushed open from the outside, no doubt due to the robbery. Lucian carefully takes the bones from you and gently places them into the coffin, almost as if it were a child being placed in a crib for the night. As the bag is emptied... silence hangs for a moment. However, the bones begin to glow, and glow, and glow, until they are burning to look upon. The warm light glows and spreads through the room, almost alive. The light actually pushes Adanmar out of the room and out of the church entirely. The living light seems to cover the entire church as bright daylight, the first true daylight you’ve seen in Barovia, bursts forth in a magnificent display. You now stand on hallowed ground. Thunder and lightning crackles overhead, as if the land itself is angry at this happening, but the light shines in defiance. Lucian, Ireena, and Davmorn stand in awe.
Davmorn nods and pats George’s lower back, “Aye... ya know George, I think that this is the first time you’ve said something that I got nothing left to add...”

"Do ya think I we slammed Strahds face into the light multiple times, it would hurt him more." Grim asks with a smirk, imagining George holding strahd by the ankles and bashing him into the light like a 'bat'.
“I see... forgive me for prying. You all just remind me of an elf that comes by here. He lost his family to that devil and would come here for counsel. A kind, but sad fellow. He left a few days ago without notice. If you see him in your travels, please, tell him Lucien wishes him luck.”

Adanmar looks puzzly to the guard arching an eyebrow "Aye" he nods "Whatever"
"Come on guys, I think we have done here, let's come back to the church"
Bry had taken Adanmar's hand up when offered, and now stood beside Elwarith in the room. "Agreed, we need to get those back to the church. It's not long till my meeting at the estate of the..was he a duke? Or a Baron?..." Bry continues to muse as he heads towards the stairs

So, Elwarith decides to stay up here. Any others joining up upstairs?

Lucien looks over with eyebrows raised, “Did you say Strahd? As in the monster of Barovia, that Strahd?”

It is about the time that Bry is supposed to meet with Izek, what is the plan? You probably have about 10 minutes. You have been out of combat long enough to have had a short rest.
