Alea still seemed a bit unsure ”I still say we walk him to the exit, it wouldn’t take much time and there might be something we missed”

Arrow sighs, looks at Khaffosi and then sits on the altar.

If there's anything on it...he'll knock it off first.

Quote from ArgentTheWise >>

"Oh sure....NOW I find keys...." he holds up the ring for everyone....

"Seven keys? Hold onto that ring, or I will if you don't want to. Sounds like the other keys may come in handy later."

Hunferho will resume the interrogation gentle questioning he was doing in post 518. That may take a little time, so he suggests the others check the outside walls of the room for secret doors or hidden passages.

He will ask the victim for his identity and the events that brought him to this altar. Hunferho will be looking him over, to see if it fits with what he is being told. (If he is wearing distinctive clothing of a noble or a peasant, roughness of hands and facial skin, does he smell of temple incense/salt from the ocean/dung from the farms, etc.) Insight: 3  (if it is Investigation, add another +2.)

Khaffosi is unaware of the gauntlet attacks, as he is still stomping on the male bane-ite's corpse.

"Khaffosi you should have heard what SHE said about your mother..." and Arrow will point at the other corpse.

“Arrow please don’t stroke him on” 

Khaffosi grabs Arrow by the shoulders, heaves him in the air and starts shaking back and forth as he says, "What did SHE say!?"

Alea face palms herself as she looked back at the prior prisoner giving him a, I’m sorry, look

Pogo places healing onto the man, using 4 of his pool of paladinic power for the day (4 points of lay on hands will leave them with 5HP, half-healed).

"M-my family... They'll reward for my return." He says, then is offered food. He begins to eat with a desperate fervour. "I'm important... Klim Jhasso." He manages to say, his tone still dry but there is that somewhat hint of nobility to the tone. He coughs, eating dry food with a parched mouth is difficult. "Please, take me t-to the Upper Ward." He manages to say between coughs.

Alea, as a fellow noble, recognises that Jhasso is a noble family's name. She can make an Intelligence (History) check to recall more.

Arrow looks for things to knock off of the altar. Besides himself, the only thing really present now is some dried blood, probably from a prior prisoner.

Alea looked at him a bit before nodding “he’s from one of the noble houses”

"We could take him to the upper ward." Pogo says thoughtfully as he offers the man his water skin  "But I fear if we leave now the cultist may run and we may not be able to catch them again."  He adds frowning as he is torn on the issue  "I say we make sure he is safe for now and take him home after we finish with the cult after all those keys may be a sign of more prisoners."  

”If the bath house employee didn’t leave maybe we could leave him with them” Alea suggested 

Khaffosi drops Arrow to give his two coppers, "The upper ward is closed.  Martial Law, remember?  The exit is that way.  He can follow us or leave on his own.  We'll find him later if we need to question him."

"Agreed, we have his name assuming that he speaks the truth....we're here for cultists not pampered nobles caught in the wrong place when they went for a rub n tug..."

"P-please, don't leave me." Klim begs the group. "They took me from the streets, I c-can't go... go alone." Seems like torturing has broken him a bit, as he attempts to cling to Alea's leg in desperation.

"We can shackle him back up - that way he'll be safe until we get back...."

Alea looked around the group before looking back up “it wouldn’t take long to bring him to the bath house, a minute at most, after he can stay at the inn until martial law clears up, I’ll pay” she said seeming determined to do this 

Axandros looked annoyed by the discussion. "You've healed him. We killed everyone in our path. He is a big boy. He'll find his way out of here. He could even wait for us to finish the job. If we escort him out of here, we'll give the cultists time to regroup maybe even muster a defence that could overwhelm us." He paused to let his words sink in. "Leave him here."

“We could have brought him out in the time we’ve been arguing” she said before looking over at Klim “do you know the way out of here” she asked 

Khaffosi replies, "But if we'd left, some cultists could have passed through here while we were gone.  Lets make sure this nest is properly killed off before we turn our backs to it."
