Upon sensing the true nature of the man before him, Bral unsheathes his sword and points it at the elven vampire.
"What is this?" he demands. He casts his eyes at the painting and then back at Jander. "That never happened, and I don't know how you are painting them if you've never even met them.
As for you, Van Richten, I thought you were leading me to Tatyana not to be ambushed."
Jander raises an eyebrow, more confused than intimidated, and points to the woman. "I didn't paint that, she did."
As Jander walks into another room, Van Richten nods as the woman rises from her chair. "This is Tatyana, or rather where her soul currently resides."
The woman takes her cane and walks over to Bral. "I'm Petra Rilenovich," she says, exchanging her hand. "The paintings are mine and while I don't know who or what you're referring to, I believe I must be channeling some sort of event that's happening, possibly with dolls and those who came with you. I've painted other things as well. Dr. Van Richten tells me that I'm this Tatyana who Strahd is hunting. I've had visions of Strahd but I've never met him."
She motions to two other paintings. One is of a red-haired woman in a purple dress and the other is of Jander locked in combat with a woman who bears a slight resemblance to him.
Petra points to Jander and says," Jander has been keeping me safe all this time. Something about owing a debt to Anna. He can be sad, but he's good company so I'll ask you sir not to hurt him."

Robin casts Spirit Guardians and strides back into the middle of the enemies. All enemies within 15 feet of her need to make a DC 15 Wis save or take 17 radiant damage from the angelic spirits that swirl around her. Movement within 15 feet of her is difficult terrain for all of the enemies.
Bral considers for a moment if this woman was truly the reincarnation of Tatyana, and Marina, then surely she was safe here? She, Petra, believes she was safe here. Unless... Ulrich knew she wasn't safe? Was Jander a threat to her?
"You think that this happening now?" Bral asks gesturing to the painting. "I think we'd better go now then and regroup with my allies."
