Invaih approaches Boo and Iradari, and noticing they have the situation in hand, he moves on to the last door down the hall to ensure there is no one there to get the jump on them.
(OOC: Not sure if there is a door there, map seems to show one, but it wasn't explicitly mentioned.)
She does not respond when you pick her up and carry her back to Ambermoor. Its not a long journey, when you arrive, citezens look at you in wonder and begin to cheer for you for ending one of the biggest threats to Ambermoor today. When you bring her back to her sisters, it appears they've been crying, "Nia!" one of them cries, approaching you and checking over thier sister. "Thank you! Thank you!" she says, taking Nia from your arms. "We can take her from here. Thank you!" she says, smiling. Now, what do you want to do now?

"The hero sought to save the world.
"If I keep trying, I'll be able to win," the hero thought.
But the harder the hero fought, the further the world seemed to tumble away.
Drowning in doubt, the hero could not even save themselves.
Hero, if you still believe in a brighter future, hold in your heart a thorn that can pierce all doubt."
Artin, delighted to see his new friends of sound life and limb, first heals any remaining damage to Dari.
"My friends, although I have just met you, I feel as if I've known you for much longer. You must be exhausted, and famished! Please, let me invite you to my home for rabbit stew, brown beer, and dandelion wine.
Its not often I get the chance to have tallfolk over"
"Where do you live?" Folwyn asks, hoping it is not too far here. He hopes that it won't be too far out of our way, in case we may need to come back here soon. Whatever that thing that they just fought was, there is more to it.
She then stands up and heals whoever needs it most and then looks to the villager..."thank you for your kind offer but its been a rather long day so I am going to head back to the hole at the base of the oak tree and rest."
Cure Wounds4 to whoever needs it... uses Medicine skill 9 to determine who (except herself) needs it the most. Then heads back to where she slept the night before to get a much needed long rest. Hopefully she will see the others in the morning.

"I live only a few weeks walk from here, although by carriage and wagon it's only a few days. But I forget, that tallfolk are often hurried and don't live on 'halfling time' as they call it. I do have something that could help."
Artin rummages through his pack, pulling out a beautiful circlet of spun silver. Even in the shade, it seems to sparkle, as if stars were woven in it. He strokes it carefully, turning it around gently his small hands.
"I have not used this much, I sometimes forget I even have it", he chuckles self-effacingly. "With this, I can take you to my home with a quickness that would please even the most impatient human!"
"Rabbit stew and dandelion wine?!" surprisingly exclaims the usually composed Invaih. "Fascinating! This is the first I've heard of stew; and what in the world could dandelions be? I would love to take you up on your offer!". He quickly settles down though, turning his gaze to regard Boo.
As Boo atypically declines the offer for food, Invaih becomes quite concerned, and noticing the wound being bandaged he immediately finds a way to help. Pulling out a branch of what looks like mistletoe from his belt pouch, he plucks off 10 berries and closes his hand over them into a fist. Turning that fist palm-up and blowing on it, he quickly prompts Boo to hold out her hands. Raising his other closed hand over hers, he spreads his fingers as 10 silver berries fall out from them; as he does so, he opens up the first fist and the mistletoe berries he had held were gone!
"These should taste like walnuts, I believe. They should also make you feel better and help your wounds heal." He explains, raising a finger as he does so.
Entering the room that Fedrir and the other woman came out of, you see a small chest in the corner, unlocked and full of money, it also contains 4 small rubies, and finally an onyx statuette of a panther. Fedrir also carries a battleaxe engraved with spirals and swirlies that shows no sign of wear.

(OOC I'm assuming that Zeg is finding the treasure, then meeting the rest of the group after Nia's return, so she is part of this conversation and dinner)
"You've never had rabbit stew?" Artin's ears perk up. "Oh, my friend, I cannot wait for you to try. You see, a good stew is more than just ingredients, it's the texture! You have a base of carrots, celery, and potato. It must not be too watery, nor must it be too thick. You smoke the rabbit over coals with peppers and spices...." Artin is so excited to meet someone that has never had stew that he practically stumbles over himself. "Enough talk, stew can only be experienced in person, not with words!"
Artin puts on the circlet, and the world shimmers, like water pouring over your vision.
Zeg, Inva, and Dari find themselves in front of a child sized burrow in a hill. Outside is a firepit with various sitting stones. Artin goes about setting up a fire. He pulls up a cellar door, and comes out with a tall mug of brown ale for Zeg, and two glasses for Dira and Inva. "You were asking about dandelion wine. Here it is my friend! This is a light white wine, tangy and sweet." He pours Inva a glass, and gives him a big smile. "Zeg, you look like you need a beer! Dari, do you prefer wine or beer?"
Once everyone has a drink in hand, Artin sets about preparing the rabbit stew on a large wooden table near the fire. He darts in and out of the kitchen, fetching herbs and spices. The odor wafting from the fire makes your stomachs rumble. As he prepares the food, whistling, he looks up and says, "It is customary at dinner for new friends to tell a story about themselves. Which one of you has a story to share?"
Your arrow hits its mark, it's hard to tell how hurt this thing is, it gives off no signs.
Boo's turn!

You make three powerful strikes, the second one killing the paleface. Nia is currently slumped in the corner, unconscious.

Opening the door, you see an open area, like a patio on top of the house. There's no one here.
Boo, you spot a mysterious dark spot at the base of her neck, apparently the spot where the paleface was channeling the energy.
