"I am with Davmorn, I mean, I am for finding these last artifacts and so, apparently we have to enter the Castle, given that, we need to know where the previous adventurers failed to destroy him once and for all, my two cents are that we can use the invitation we have to open the gate, search the Castle for these trinkets and, if Strahd will come, we will try to be the worst guests ever"

It sounds like the general consensus is to head toward the castle. The assault on the castle will take place in 6 days. Each of you will be given this time to prepare (or murder angels, or do something else!). However, you may also attack sooner, maybe it’ll catch Strahd off guard. Time will tell.

Viorela would like to plot to assault the angel in the night, via sneaking in and watching for patrols of his 'charges', rid this world of its evil. She is assuming he probably kidnaps young women and turns them into Strahd's slaves. She doesn't believe his words about Strahd being defeated before (willful ignorance on her part).

Sneaking around and killing in the night? Seems like you're barking right up Elwarith's alley since he works best that way - just need to convince the assassin to help you.

Viorela searches for a room at the local Inn or any secluded place she could drag interested members of the party. She asks the party to come hear her out with the words, "It may be dangerous, but it could be worth our while to attack this angel who is clearly beyond the Morninglord's grace."

"Why? why should I risk my life fighting a mad angel who has locked himself away in his abbey..."

"Aside from enacting justice," Viorela wrinkles her nose. She feels her cause is just, but knows these outsiders might need more to sweeten the deal. Why should they care too much about what this abbot may do? Their goal is, probably, only to escape the mists. "This abbot is a celestial. Of that, I can guarantee. I don't understand the purpose of his arrival, but I don't think it would be too farfetched to suppose he might have items of interest to us..." 

Viorela would be correct - Elwarith cares not about this land or its problems, he sees the destruction of Strahd as the means to leave this cursed land.  Unless a target poses immediate threat to his well being or his quest, the only other reason to kill is because he's being paid to.

Viorela can't think of much more to say. If she goes alone, then she will do it alone. Any holy relic this angel may have could be of use... as well as knowing Krezk would be relatively a safer place to live as a young woman...

Stealth: 20
Investigation: 18

That night, you set out to scout the halls of the abbey. Over the course of the night, you deftly avoid sight from any of the mongrelfolk. With your exceptional vision, you can easily see the mongrelfolk. There are the ones that you met, as well as several that are locked in prison cells. That is all you can make out through the night.

(Do I have any idea where the abbot usually stays in the night? I'm guessing no ahhhhhhhhh)

From the look that you got during the first night, it’s very hard to tell. The halls alone were confusing enough, but by the time you were getting the hang of it, sunrise was upon you. If you would like to try again the night after, you absolutely can. Let’s just see what the others might want to do with their first night beforehand.

"Kill an angel...I mean I love the idea of tearing some stuff up, but did you see how beautiful he was?" Bry replied to Viorela's request, "Though, I might be persuaded to help for a song my dear?"

Viorela is amused by the thought of convincing a devil to put down an angel, though in her mind their moralities are reversed in this case. She attempts to sing an old, but popular Barovian song. 

Performance: 7

(I'm no good with coming up with songs, but I'm pretty sure it would be melancholic as hell.)

The song that you chose was one quite familar to you. Specifically, it can be sung as either a duet or a solo, with the tone varying in between. Together, it is a song of kinship and solidarity. However, as a solo, it is more akin to a slow, mournful dirge of loss. It is hauntingly beautiful.

(Oh god. I bet Vio and her sister used to sing this all the time.)

Quite right.
