"That would be fabulous!"Crystal starts following Eralynn to the lobby. "You know..." she says thoughtfully "after we find Falthrax, you could get in there and get your piece of ass 'massage'... it looked like you had eyes for that young man... he is quite handsome... I'll help you if you want."
If Eralynn could, Crystal would of hear her laugh a little nervously. She was a little embarrassed it had been so long since she even had anything like that. Too long.
Oh, shit. There's no one here. Wow, i'm dumb. Oh! There's Echo. "I, uuuuum, apparently interrupt people.... I'm good at that I guess."
She gives you a warm smile. She's over it.
"Me?! a hag?! OH, no, no, no.... wait, do I look like a hag?"she asks as shy tries to straighten her hair a bit while making sure her robe is pulled fully on. Ecko!Eralynn says, laughing. She touches Crystal's arm and shakes her head no.
"That sounded just like the Avowed who sent me here.... how do you do that?"
"Well, I'm Crystal and the Avowed sent me here to help find Falthrax... he said I would find you guys here." She then looks a bit sheepishly over to Eralynn "I, uuuuum, apparently interrupt people.... I'm good at that I guess."
"Me?! a hag?! OH, no, no, no.... wait, do I look like a hag?"she asks as shy tries to straighten her hair a bit while making sure her robe is pulled fully on.
"I don't know! I've always been able to,"Ecko echoes in response to the first before tilting his head in a quizzical manner. "Another Avowed sent for us? Oh, that might mean time flows differently when we're in here. Curious." Ecko tilts his head, doing some arcane calculations under his breath. Teleportation and interplanar travel was his focus. He had not considered this. He would have to research further. "Of course not. Well, maybe. Well, probably not. Well, I've never seen a hag before. How would I know?"
"What?" Ecko replies, returning from his momentary reverie of considering the logistics behind demiplanes & teleportation.
Side by side with the two, Ecko begins heading towards the last known location of Garmus and Ysabell. Okay, time to be serious. Relatively serious, at least. Ecko wasn't capable of too much seriousness. It's simply too boring.
"What?" Ecko replies, returning from his momentary reverie of considering the logistics behind demiplanes & teleportation. She's not a hag, sweetie!
As Eralynn and Crystal follow Ecko to find Garmus and Ysabell, she leans over to Eralynn and whispers "He's funny... is he always like that?" Eralynn nods, and smiles warmly. You can tell she enjoys his company and has much respect for him - like everyone else on the team.
Not sensing anything supernatural around her, she turned around to face Saede before noticing Garmus heading in her direction. Deciding to continue to ignore the man, she walked towards Garmus before saying, "I did not sense anything abnormal in the Shrine and was about to take a look inside before I was interrupted. Did you find anything useful? And would you like to join me."
Garmus relays what he found in the employee's room and his thoughts about it being stolen or otherwise. "Let's see what we can find." He says turning toward the temple but stops as he sees Eralynn and Ecko with a very attractive half elf. "There's the other two. That woman must be an employee here, she's very beautiful." He notes.

"Perhaps. Best to keep investigating while we can before they call more employees out to delay us." Ysa replied as she noted the woman before turning around in a swirl of clothing and back in the direction of the Shrine. With her Detect Evil and Good still active, she walked past Saede towards the double-door entrance and attempted to open them up and take a look inside.
Ecko bends down and slaps two cucumber slices over Garmus's eyes. "I don't know!" he truthfully replies, immediately walking away and strutting off after Ysabell, tracing a quick detect magic in the air.
Ysa stopped in her tracks as she felt a ping in Saede's direction, and Infernal Ping. Detouring to the man, she casually drew her Scythe, currently at normal size, and tapped it against Saede's chest before releasing a pulse of necrotic energy into his body. "I think I'll ask you again... Where is Falthrax...?" Though she asked pleasantly enough, it was clear to see that she was done playing around being apart of this next books game.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
While Ysabell walks towards the shrine, Ecko will take absolute pleasure in annoying Saeth to provide a distraction. He stalks up towards the host and begins scraping off the moisturizer mask long-since glued to his beak. Well, he didn’t foresee that issue. “Saeth! What a pleasure. This place is really great, it is. Oh, by the way, how do you get these off? Are these even supposed to be applied like this? I don’t know, they’re cool. I want more. Do you have more of these masks? I might take some with me. Oh! Is that against customer policy? If that’s the case, my bad. Oh! The masseuse is great. Have you tried them? I’m sure you have. That reminds me - does working here give you free massages? Do you get massages often? If yes, I might consider applying for a job here…” Ecko rattles about everything and nothing at the same time before launching into two simultaneous tangents, half of the time speaking about interplanar teleportation and the other time talking about the delicacies of baked goods.
Ecko’s eyes widen as Ysabell cross posts ends the one-sided conversation with a spell. He shrugs and whips out a dagger. “Okay, then, it seems you’re not telling customers everything you know. That’s, like, terrible customer service. You should be ashamed.”
Ecko whispers an incantation and sticks the dagger directly into Saeth’s side. “Don’t move or it’ll hurt. Ouch.”
Booming Blade Attack: 13 Damage: 10 If Saeth uses any movement, he takes an additional 10 thunder damage.
"Oh, no, no.... I don't work here, this is my first time even being here.... I actually came to find you guys and help find Falthrax, the Avowed sent me." She watches the odd exchange between Garmus and Echo and then suddenly Echo takes off... was he offended? Who knows, not going to worry, he's a bit odd but friendly. "Eralynn sweetie, are there others other than Echo and..."she pauses and looks at Garmus with a slight confusion "I'm sorry, I must have missed your name, what was it?"
"I think I'll ask you again... Where is Falthrax...?" Saeth reels from the hits from Ecko and Ysa, but he is far from finished. He gets up. "So. The ruse is up, I see. How clever of you. Too bad you won't survive."and in a blast of fire and brimstone, he's gone.
"Eralynn sweetie, are there others other than Echo and..." she pauses and looks at Garmus with a slight confusion "I'm sorry, I must have missed your name, what was it?" Ach. She's so adorable. This is Ysabell and Garmus!
“Not so fast,” Ecko happily chirps, weaving a counterincantaion to interrupt Saeth’s teleportation. Ecko knew a thing or two about teleportation - the base threads of conjuration magic he had studied beyond any reasonable limit.
Ecko turns towards the group and calls - loud enough for them to hear, but not enough to alert anyone else - “Garmus! Eralynn! A little help, pretty please!”
"Eralynn sweetie, are there others other than Echo and..." she pauses and looks at Garmus with a slight confusion "I'm sorry, I must have missed your name, what was it?" Ach. She's so adorable. This is Ysabell and Garmus!
He nods at Crystal "Aye, call me Garmus. Yer from the--" He stops and turns as he hears Ecko's call. "What's goin' on over there?" Seeing Saede turn into a cambion he pulls his axe.
“Not so fast,” Ecko happily chirps. Saeth is not a happy camper. He assumes his true form. Eralynn gasps. A cambion! Son of a--!
Eralynn was so stunned, she looked at Crystal and herself. She was still in her robe.
"Saeth! Stop this at once."Ilmar booms. "Enough. What are you doing?"
"They know! I must warn the coven!"
"The only thing you will do is die if you remain. Leave. Do not return."
"I know and care not about this coven that you speak of. I am looking Falthrax." repeated sternly to the transformed Saede. The man's transformation did not seem to phase her in the slightest. "Tell me where they are and we'll leave this book. Don't and it will not end well for you or your coven." Her Scythe - which at some point had grown larger and sharper if that were possible - seemingly looked on with interest.
Ecko looks barely surprised as Saeth transforms into a cambion. He mimics the sound of a flawless wolf-whistle as he still brandishes a dagger wreathed in electrical energy. "So that's why you're hot. You're literally a fiend. Neat." As if that was nothing in the world, Ecko jots something down in his notebook with his other hand, carving an extremely strange look in his white bathrobe. "Right - here's the thing, Saeth, Saede, who knows what? You leave and you don't die. You don't and you do. Simple as that." A beat. Ecko looks the cambion up and down once before tilting his head. "Also, really - hags? Are your standards that low? I'd imagine someone with your appearances would be able to punch in a higher tier...or maybe you're into hags...no judgement here..."
"That would be fabulous!" Crystal starts following Eralynn to the lobby. "You know..." she says thoughtfully "after we find Falthrax, you could get in there and get your

"Crystal, do ya work here?" Garmus asks and then takes a closer look at the Kenku. "Ecko, what in the nine hells do ya have all over yer beak?"
"Perhaps. Best to keep investigating while we can before they call more employees out to delay us."
