Kane coughs loudly. “And who do we have the honor of meeting?” He asks, though he has a grim suspicion that he knows the answer. His hand goes instinctively to the book hanging from his belt.
Yes, he looks remarkable like the statue. With his pale skin, he looks almost statue like. Though of course taking a persons likeness from a statue and seeing them first hand are fairly different.
He ignores Kane's question and reaches a hand out to the alter boy, "Come here child..." The boy stumbles out from his hiding spot, staring into the man's eyes as he walks forward directly towards him.

"Meepo sees before." Meepo says, angling his head as he takes in the figure. He then looks to his companions, trying to figure out if they should attack this figure or not.
Mordekai comes to, unsure where he is. He hears the slow clapping and sits up, turning towards the noise. As he sees the man from the statue, the one whom the strange Thistle greeted as M'Lord, Mordekai quickly gets down from the altar backwards, keeping the altar between himself and the pale stranger.
Mordekai looks around at his companions. "What happened? I died, didn't I? Why is he here? At what cost have you brought me back? Am I to belong to him now? I won't do it. Traveler, help me, I won't call this man Lord."
Fearing the worst, Olin rushes to Yeska before he reaches the strange man. Grabbing the boy by the shoulders, Olin casts protection from evil and good. "Stay with us, child."
Olin's hand on the boys shoulder stops him. The spell eases across the boys soul. He looks blankly at Olin. "Come boy" says the man in a more forceful voice. The boy turns away from Olin and continues his walk towards the man.
The priest, replies to Kane in a quailing voice, "The very devil himself...."
It would seem pretty much everyone continues to ignore Meepo.
The boys thumps to the ground asleep. The priest shakes his head, his voice quavering “I fear I know the answer, but it doesn’t matter now...”
As the boy drops to the ground he man smiles a satisfied smile, “Very well.” His voice is thick and luxurious and seems to echo in your minds.
“Ireena my dear, I’ll see you soon enough. As for the rest of you, don’t worry, I won’t be too far away. Never too far away.” He seems to address this last statement directly to Mordekai and then with flourish of his cape he turns into a dark cloud that zips away into the ceiling and through the cracks in the walls.
The priest lets out an audible gasp.

Standing up, Father Petrovich runs to the boy, relieved to see him merely sleeping. He shakes the boy awake. He looks around confused. "What happened? I was hiding...and....I saw a face...but...don't remember." Father Petrovich stands him up, "Do not worry my son. Go to your room now. I must speak with these folk."
Ismark is holding his step sister tightly, arm around her shoulder as she seems both angry and confused.
As the boy walks away the Father watches him, and then to the group, in a whispered voice, "Never before has the devil Strahd breached these walls. Until yesterday, these hallowed grounds were protected by the bones of the Saint Andral, whom the church is named after. People in the town come here to spend the night, for protection, knowing it's safe from him. But now that he knows he can enter, this place....will become one of horror. I need the Saint's bones. Recently someone stole them. I know not who for sure, but I suspect it was the lad Milivoj, the one with the shovel you saw initially. He's a good kid, but troubled, as are we all. I can not guess at his motivation, but the only other person who knew about the bones was young Yeska, and the only person he really trusts is Milivoj, like an older brother. The Morninglord brought you here for a purpose. I hope that purpose is to help me...help us all."

Olin glances at the sleeping boy, then back at the priest, then at the ceiling where the vampire vanished. With a shiver, Olin says "So he's the one responsible for all this misery? What did he want with the boy here?"
Olin sighs heavily at the priest's words. "Our goal was to deliver Ireena to Vallaki to keep her from the devil's view. Yet when we arrive here he shows up himself to taunt us." Turning to Ireena, "I hope you are actually safer here, my lady."
Olin rubs his hands against his temples, eyes closed, then says to no one in particular "What do we still need to do? We have found our ally in Ismark. We still need to find the evil tree growing atop a hill of graves where the ancient dead sleep, and find the mother--she who gave birth to evil, and also find a nest of ravens, was it? We have only been on the road a handful of days but it feels like it's been a month since we spoke with Madame Eva..."
Ismark says, "It sounds like she will not be safe again, unless we can help retrieve these bones, and make this church safe again from the devil's influence....then we can go in search of these other things you need....once she is safe. He looked at her like nothing I've seen before..."

"Bones lost?" Meepo pipes up, something he understands finally. "Meepo good find lost." He starts poking around the place, looking around for anything that might be lost.

How does the priest react to Yeska’s actions?

Fearing the worst, Olin rushes to Yeska before he reaches the strange man. Grabbing the boy by the shoulders, Olin casts protection from evil and good. "Stay with us, child."
A spell is on Kane’s lips before Olin has finished speaking. “Who is he?” He asks the priest, keeping an eye on the stranger. “What does he want?”
"Meepo thinks vampire." Meepo says with a nod to the figure. "We fight?" Meepo asks the group.
Olin's hand on the boys shoulder stops him. The spell eases across the boys soul. He looks blankly at Olin. "Come boy" says the man in a more forceful voice. The boy turns away from Olin and continues his walk towards the man.

Meepo casts sleep on the boy. positioning it so it overlaps the vampire if possible,and not any of the others.
HP to sleep: 34
“I would not suggest taking on a vampire, if he is indeed a vampire, just yet.” Kane says out of the corner of his mouth to Meepo.
He returns to the priest. “If that is true, how is it possible that he is able to enter this holy place?”
Kane’s voice is low and measured as he attempts to calm the terrified man. Persuasion (With Guidance): 15 + 3

The priest shrugs, "I do not know. We are all just his play things. I think he was just...toying with us by tormenting the most innocent among us..."
