Curse of Strahd

Manneo - Standing in the back and hearing what the...corpse has to say listens intently to find out more information.

Speaking to the specter - "My Lord, was Argynvost also turned to be undead along with Strahd, or is his soul at peace?"

Skorn nods. I know the cost of war, personally. He touches the scar on his face. But honor can be found. Not as easily as it is lost, but it can be found again. You and your warriors can still fight against the evil.

Skorn nods. I know the cost of war, personally. He touches the scar on his face. But honor can be found. Not as easily as it is lost, but it can be found again. You and your warriors can still fight against the evil. 

Gwyllen encourages them – “Even in death it is possible to fight evil, yes. The Spirit I serve, Nera the Raven Queen, fights the evil undead through we warlocks, who channel her hatred and anger. It is never too late to stop fighting.”

He says “If you have come to free this land from the creature that feasts on the blood of the innocent, know this: There is no monster I hate more than Strahd von Zarovich. He slew Argynvost, broke the life of the knight I loved, and destroyed the valiant order to which I devoted my life, but Strahd has already died once. He can’t be allowed to die again. Instead, he must suffer eternally in a hell of his own creation, from which he can never escape. Whatever can be done to bring him misery and unrest, I will do, but I will destroy anyone who tries to end his torment.”

Skorn nods. Understood. All we wish to do is leave this land. I have no issue leaving Strahd to his torment. He desires this woman here, he motions back towards Ireena. We are seeing her to Krezk and to safety, to deny him what he wants. Any assistance you can give us in getting her there, or us away from this land, would be appreciated, noble knight.

 He does not know 

Mr. Greenleaf - With the whole scrunched face wtf look Flyn will look at the group "How do you plan on doing that? He can just pull people here with the fog so he will always have new prey."

 Go now or suffer my wrath

Mr. Greenleaf - Throwing his hands up in the air and walking away "You're being a big selfish stupid scaredy cat, no wonder you and your men lost after Argynvost passed. Wonder what he would think to see you now... Big baby." heading back towards the stairs "Are we done here or do we still have to finish checking this place out?" before muttering under his breath "so many stupid stairs."

Torvin pulls you back from the stairs and says " Greenleaf, let us see what else we find up here"

Gwyllen turns on her heel and walks away to cool off as she feels the Raven Queen's wrath boil in her veins. Intelligent undead are what the Queen really hates, though she hadn’t mentioned it was all of them. Good or evil, it didn’t matter; it physically pained her to be in his presence. If only he had some desire to help them, and find peace for himself, that would make all the difference. False life clinging to this realm is completely disgusting for an avatar of Nera the Raven.

As her stomach turns, she spits on the floor with a sizzling purple acid, bursting into an angry white flame. She finds a dark corner away from the others and begins retching up frost and black flames. Her Fey energy rolls off of her in sickening waves and she is glad the others aren't near, for the energy would make them sad and nauseous as well.

To not engage the specter in battle angers the Raven Queen intensely and she punishes Gwyllen for it with little regard for her physical state. Gwyllen weeps frost silently and only returns to the others once she has acclimated to the new level of pain. She is always in torment, so it’s nothing new really. Hopefully, they will find more undead to hunt soon, she wishes.

Manneo - Having been silent during this conversation and decides to say something to the corpse, he says, "Excuse me. I don't mean to intrude, but you just got done saying how you would do anything in your power to help and now you are forcing us out. So, which is it? Are you helping or are you choosing to let evil reign?"

Persusasion: 11

 He says " Sir, I will help not. I can not leave this place. However, I wish Strahd more suffering but not release from Barovia."

Torvin goes around the room to the left side of the castle to a room in the far left corner. Through the dust and cobwebs, you see faded war banners adorning the walls of a spacious chamber, in the center of which stands a heavy wooden table. An iron chandelier hangs above the table, which is surrounded by six high-backed chairs with wood-carved dragons perched atop them. Slumped in five of the chairs are skeletal humans in tattered chainmail.

Some one in the chairs looks up at him and says " The corpses tilt their heads in your direction. One of them growls, “Why do you the living disturb the dead?” He quickly shuts the door and goes up to you guys and says " Um don't go in the far left room"

 You find nothing but rubble

Torvin will explore the room to the far right upper corner

This room is a haven for dust and cobwebs. Three narrow windows allow slivers of light to illuminate bare oak shelves along the walls and a torn, padded chair lying on its side near a cavernous hearth. A picture above the mantel has been slashed, its lower half hanging down below the frame like a torn piece of flesh. An iron door set in the south corner of the west wall hangs open on one hinge.
