The Wizard's Challenge

She is startled at first and then says, in her exhaling voice; "My chest hurt..."  She breathes again.  "Then I felt numb, then I fell.  Everything went dark."

It sounds to both of you that she may have had a heart attack.

Would Urselles know how to help someone not have another heart attack

(No, but Normand can.)

Normand begins advising the woman on ways to try preventing further attacks, and tells her that he will be visiting often.

She thanks you both, as does her son.

The group slowly make their way into the cave entrance; with Joran waiting outside.  In the light, the stones of the wall all look roughly the same size, but are not carved or even well cemented together; with many looking like they could fall right out in time.  The floor is well worn from travel, but was originally natural cave.  The roof and remaining walls are all natural.

Peering around the corner towards the first room like area, you all see a spot for a fire; with dust covered burnt logs.  A raised flat area of stone appears to be used as a makeshift table.  The back wall has a short tunnel, that goes back behind the wall.  Movement can be heard in that area.

The rest of the walled hallway goes farther out of the light, but a second possible room can be seen; both rooms are opposite of the stone wall.

(Perception check everyone.)

After the woman thanks you both, Normand and Urselles head back to the church.  Normand turns to you and asks; "How are you doing?  Some of that had to be tough."

Shalech perception: 11

"oh course it was, I was worried for that women's life what would happen to her child what caused it to happen I mean of course it's tough, but it's are duty to help others, and that means staying strong, if we can't be confident in are god blessed abilities how could some child be confident in us"  

"Well said." Normand says.  You reenter the church.

As you get there, a dwarf in a heavy leather apron, covered in soot and ash, is waiting.  He calls out to Normand; "Emergency Council Meeting, we have to go." Normand quickly bids you farewell and in a moment you find yourself alone in the church.

"I bet this hermit is a wily old fella, we should take care to look for traps, and these walls look like they could cave in with a swift breeze." Croak wears his shield on his left hand but his weapons are sheathed.

Perception:17

Croak, you see some movement in the shadows of the area beyond the current chamber, where the cave bends behind the far wall.

Whispering, "We got something ahead, somebody speak up, introduce ourselves."

A deep grumbling noise comes from the area.

Urselles watches as Normand and the dwarf leave, she then remembered that Normand mentioned he had a time where he helped people, so she decided to look around the church a bit

The pews run the length of the church, stopping at the podium.  There is a room behind the podium, with the door shut.  The windows on both sides, north and south, are beautiful stainglass images of nature and farming and caring for each other.

Urselles decides to wait for anyone that may show up and need help

Shalech casts Light on Croak's weapon.

Theodore speaks up, calling out for the hermit.  The only reply was a low deep growl of some kind of large creature from the cave area past the wall.

(Nature Checks everyone)

Urselles, from time to time people come in for advice, for which you do a pretty good job with.  After about an hour Normand and the dwarf approach and call out to you.  "There was a rash of thefts last night; where did you find that jewelry again?  Might help us find the culprit.  Plus, those could be the missing goods."

The dwarf asks to see them.

(jimmop, Did you see the message I sent you?)

“We found the jewelry in the so called haunted house, the only real haunted thing was an illusion set on a chair. Oh also the jewelry”  Urselles reaches into her robes and through the leather armor underneath, she had made sure to hide the jewelry where it wouldn’t easily be seen, Urselles extends the bag to the dwarf “here, also I don’t believe we’ve introduced”
