The four members of the party follow the toddler and when they reach the top of the rise they see it entering in a farm that seems to be part of a farm. Once again the house itself seems well kept and clean, but the surroundings appear grey and dull.
They see the baby stopping at the entrance, look back to them and enter the house. They all can hear the giggles again, but it seems to come from everywhere...
"To find a monster we follow a child it seems,"muses Moravasti. Before anyone enters the house, the monk hopes to peer through a window to see what might be within the building.

Vallineral, while fairly agile and can hide, chooses to take the more direct path to follow. He keeps an eye out for any sort of trap or sudden change in the environment; this is a dream realm after all.
Vallineral do not see any wire or plate in the porch or the door, but he sees, however, a strange silouette between the clouds above, one that reminds him a huge flying serpent with a pair of great wings.
The monk peeks one of the windows and see some movement inside the house, but before he can discern anything more he seems to step into a cat's tail, wich screams and run away the porch, yelling and making hissing noises. None of them had seen that cat when they approached the house.
Moravasti looks around, bewildered, wondering how he hadn't noticed the cat. He then glances at Vallineral, who's focusing on something overhead. Moravasti looks up as well, wondering if the cat has somehow taken flight.
Vallineral realises that may be some portent for later, but in the meantime they have another priority. He rushes ahead to try and find where the apparition of the child has gone to.
The door opens without a sound and you see a small hall wich turns into a small hallway. To the right and to the left there are two open doors. Along the hallway there are two more doors, each at each side of the walls, and a secondary entrance door to the house.
To the right you see what it seems to be a room, a small cabinet, a small chest and a small bed. You can see a couple of wooden toys scattered in the floor.
To the left there is wich appears to be the living room. A big round table with six chairs around it, a fireplace with some wood, but not fire, on it.
It seems that as you entered the house the light seems a little bit dimmer, the colors are pale, like if a smooth grey satin has been put over everything.
Looking to the living room, you see a ceramic plate flying towards the table, hitting it, bouncing and spinning, and crashing to the floor, breaking itself in pieces.
A soft, delicate voice comes from somewhere inside that room.
"Laila my dear... come! Aunt Vissy has made her special supper for dinner... Laila... " the tone is cheerish and charming. You see another plate flying, and hitting the floor. "Table is ready...hihihi "
The companions also hear a quiet sobbing, a child one, coming from the room of the right.

Moravasti moves toward the room on the right, hoping to make eye contact with the child while simultaneously remaining unseen by Aunt Vissy (Stealth, if necessary: 20). If he is able to do so, the monk will attempt to ask Laila, telepathically, what is upsetting her.
As he expected, sat on the corner of the room, trying to hide behind a simple wooden bed, he can see a child. A little girl, about four five years old, the knees pressed against her chest, grabbing her arms around the knees and trying not to make sound while crying. When she sees him, she gasp, and literally hold her breath. Her face turns white, making more obvious the marks of her tears across her face.
Vallineral will attempt to keep the lead, hoping his elven keen senses will alert him to anything that may turn up.

The monk approaches the building on the farm as quietly as he is able; he then tries to locate the child by looking through one of the windows...

The monk thinks that he sees some movement between the dark clouds above, but he cannot pick anything above. Perhaps it was just his imagination.

Anatol follows. He stays close to Vallineral because he trusts him.

(Nature/Arcana checks to determine if Vallineral can figure out what that silhouette is of.)

It was so fsat, so vague that he couldnt take the details and nothing comes to his mind right now.
The sound of some furniture crashing in the house and breaking made all the companions to focus their attention on the inside.
What do you want to do?

(I believe the child did indeed enter the house, according to post #242)
( So do you enter the house too? )

Anatol will follow close to behind the first one entering ready to act and help.
