Saya has a better understanding of what the Ainoe mask does in the Underworld, but she still fails to see how Calisto would use that in the mortal world. She hopes that she won't have to find that out. "I am ready to proceed. How well do you know of this place?" Saya asks Calisto.

Areus shakes his head at Calisto display of power, but he stays silent. As Saya finishes to speak he asks Calisto "Do you know where the Black Fragment is?"
"I have heard the fragment was hidden in the temple of Ephara. Let us proceed there and seek it out. Lead the way centaur if this is your beloved city." Calisto says as she ignores Saya's question and answers Areus.
"We have a destination then." says Areus to the rest of the group "Let's search for the temple of Ephara." The hoplite adjusts his grip on the spear and shield as he says "Let's keep our guard up, we do not know what we are going to face this time."
"It's not only the things we face in front of us we need fear, but those who stand at our backs. Keep close my friends, I am afraid we have no allies here." Soren looks grimly at each member in turn

“You are right Soren. I will help you watch our back.” Saya stays more towards the back of the group, checking if they are being followed. She knows there should not be any portals in the Underworld, but just before leaving, she concentrates around her area and tries to detect any portal.
Detect Portal - Once per short rest, as an action, you detect the distance and direction to the closest planar portal within 1 mile of you.

Saya knows the city well, even if this is some strange upside-down dark mirror of Meletis. She carefully avoids locations that would likely lead to dead ends even when in the real city they would not. The souls that wander the streets seem to ignore you as you make your way towards the great temple of Ephara. Along the way you get the opportunity to talk amongst yourselves as you keep an eye on Calisto and the minotaurs. Areus and Tisto recall that the first fragment of the mask was not found in the newer temple of Ehpara but in fact in the original lost temple under the Halls of Justice that Callaphe led you to. You wonder if the same will be true for the black fragment.
As the temple of Ehpara comes into view Calisto calls for a stop to rest. You have spent a couple of hours traveling through the broken city. Where there should have been clean streets and easy travel you have found broken walls, piles of rubble and detours around unpassable areas. It has been hard and while you are distrustful of Calisto the opportunity to rest a short while is welcomed.
Areus has time to take out the green fragment and study it. Calisto eyes are on you as she sits a short ways away, surrounded by the minotaurs, but she says nothing and takes no action as your truce holds for the moment. Areus learns its use and is able to attune to it.
A fragment of the Elpis mask, made of marble with colored veins of mana. It smells like verdant forests and feels somehow alive.
When you wear the mask, any shadows you cast bear the starlit mark of Nyx.
When you speak the command phrase, “unbound potential” you gain a benefit defined below depending on which Stage the mask has reached. This effect lasts for 1 minute. You must finish a long rest before using this feature again.
Stage 1 Your Strength score increases to 24. Your size increases by one category.
Stage 2 Your Strength score increases to 26. Your size increases by one category.
Stage 3 Your Strength score increases to 28. Your size increases by two categories (e.g. from Medium to Huge).
Stage 4 Your Strength score increases to 30. Your size increases by two categories. You have resistance to bludgeoning, piercing & slashing damage.
Stage 5 Your Strength score increases to 30. Your size increases by two steps. You have immunity to bludgeoning, piercing & slashing damage. You deal double damage to objects and structures.
Stage 4 currently unlocked
As the party rests and Areus studies the green fragment, the rest of you keep watch. At some point Areus (1), Callaphe (2), Saya (3) Soren (4), Tisto (5) 2 Callaphe notices a child of some six years of age, huddled in a thin coat and sitting against the bleached bone of a ruined building nearby. She holds out her hand to passersby in a pleading gesture. They ignore her.
As the group rests and Areus starts studying the fragment, from time to time, the hoplite checks that Calisto and her minotaurs are not doing anything suspicious. The Arkoan finishes to attune to the fragment and murmurs "This is indeed a godly boon, I will try to use it well." He then places an hand on the symbol of Iroas on his belt staying silent for a few more moments before joining the rest of the group in their watch.

"Indeed, I look forward to see it in action." Saya replies to Areus. While the party rests, Saya looks around to see if she can see any sign that there are living creatures besides them in the area. (Survival: 12)

Callaphe looks at the child, then around to see if anyone else is awake, before getting up and approaching her.
Everyone is awake, its a short rest. So anyone can hit short rest if they need to, but I don't think anyone needs one to reset any spell slots or anything else.
Callaphe approaches the small child. The child looks up at Callaphe with a sad and dirty face and holds out her hand. "My name is Hadra and I'm very cold. I will tell you your future in exchange for a little warmth."
If Areus notices Callaphe approaching the child, he will walk towards her just to be ready in case of sudden danger. If he does not notice her, the hoplite continues his watch as the rest of the group finishes to rest.
Areus, too busy concentrating on the green fragment, does not see what Callaphe is doing.
Callaphe stands before the small girl. She sees the rags, the flimsy clothing, and when the cold wind suddenly blows the child shivers. It is just a small child begging in the street. A sight she has seen a hundred times over in the poleis of Theros.

"Power will make them bow!" Calisto counters. "Watch and learn!" She then looks over at the minotaurs, "All of you, bow before me!"
Dakun immediately falls to a knee and bows his head while Gundak and Nalke also do so, a bit slower, but ey bow none the less.
"Are we done playing games then? Shall we proceed?" Calisto asks.
