So you walk towards the temple, which is situated at the center of the Citadel. It is rathermajestic, a big, well built, but quite puritanical structure, with stairs columns at the front - similar to a Greek or Roman temple in our world. As you enter, you see a big statue of Tempus in the center, but there are statues of other gods as well - mainly from the Imperial religion, but they also tolerate gods from other Pantheons. The temple is big but not very decorated, it could also serve as a fortress in case of a siege. You see that there is a ceremony going on at the statue of Tempus, a cleric is singing a well known war hymn, and the congregation, consisting mostly of clerics and Legoinnaires, are following him. The war hymn rises from the throats of at least 10-15 clerics and 2-300 Legionnaires of all ranks, it is quite impressive. You see that, as it is the custom with the priests of Tempus, they are also wearing uniforms of the Legion. There are a couple of other people, priests and believers, also praying at the statues of the other gods.

I want to roll perception to see if any of the legionnaire's from the earlier altercation are here 16
I also wanna roll knowledge religion to see if I recognise any of the other gods/ the song they're singing. 3
If I do see any of the legionnaire's from earlier I want to turn to Reg and whisper, "Maybe it's best if we kept a bit of a low profile?" and point my head in their direction and then start trying to lead Reggie boy to the temple without being spotted (Stealth 6)
If I recognise the song they're singing I want to turn to Reginald and also say "CHOON!"
"Maybe it's best if we kept a bit of a low profile?" - Reginald agrees and walks behind master dwarf, moving silently behind the dwarfs loud thunderous steps.
I try to see where I should go, as I have no clue. I was told to go to the temple. I'm here. Now what? Investigation: 11
Hurthrun, you don't recognize any of the soldiers from earlier. You figure that they must all be drinking or else they passed out in their barracks. As far as the gods are concerned, these are human gods, and you have no idea what they could represent. You have seen the big flaming sword guy before, and you think it must be some kind of a war god, but of course all human war gods are weaklings compared to Thor!
Reginald, you see a door at the back of the temple that is open, and it must be leading to another section, there are people coming and going. You also see a young acolyte just dozing off in one of the corners, another one going around with a collection box, and you see a few soldiers who have what seems to be freshly treated wounds. You could ask them for directions, or you could take another look at the people to see whether you find anyone else.
"Well I'm here, I've done what I was supposed to do. It's not our fault master dwarf that there's no one here to greet us. Should we go see about a tavern, friend?"
One of the soldiers that you ask tells you: "Just go through that back door, brother recruit, and ask for a healer. There should be several priests there. Just be careful with the dwarven one, he is somewhat of a trickster, hehe."
As you enter the infirmary part of the temple, you see quite a few wounded soldiers, some of them in better, some of them in worse conditions. You also see four clerics tending to them: a stocky dwarf, a tall, slender elven woman, an old human man, and a middle-aged human woman.
You were never interested in religion, but you have seen most of the symbols and robes around, except for that of the dwarf. You presume they must belong to the good kind of gods."The middle-aged human woman approaches you: "Good evening, Legionnaires, long live the Emperor. May I help you in any way?"
Surprised by the fact that it is not the patient who speaks, she repiles "Of course. Son, can you speak? Can you tell me what happened to you? What exactly should I be looking for?"
She takes a look at Reginald and examines him from the outside to see if there are any signs of injuries.

“WAIT laddy, if only that eleven lass was ere to tell us what her elves eyes saw!”
I ask the soldiers who to see about healing
One of the soldiers that you ask tells you: "Just go through that back door, brother recruit, and ask for a healer. There should be several priests there. Just be careful with the dwarven one, he is somewhat of a trickster, hehe."
“By Thor’s beard, you have a cleric of Loki here?!?! Lad we gots ta find out what he’s up to!”
“By Thor’s beard, you have a cleric of Loki here?!?! Lad we gots ta find out what he’s up to!”
"I don't know too much about dwarven religion, to be honest. All I know is that the dwarf just always pulls all kinds of tricks on people."
I take Reginald into the temple. I find a random non dwarven healer and ask them to once over Reginald.
Reginald, do you allow him to do this? :)

Reek has learned his lesson and does not attempt to escape or talk his way out of this. I follow master dwarf.
