Rory is smoking on the roof of the shrine, out of view of the people trying to get in
Efflore is working at the bar today, surprisingly good at putting on a show as he pours drinks
-free pick-
Korh accidentally runs into them, distracted.
There is a commotion in the square. There is a half-elf raising a god on a pole. The god seems to be dead.
*Annnd a cutscene*
Screams cut through a village. A half-elf with short black hair, green clothing and eyes, and twin swords of death walks through the destruction. Theren surveys it with cold, dead eyes. A villager tries to stand up to him but is cut down by Theren swiftly. Bodies litter the ground as Theren slowly, methodically eliminates every single person in the village, letting blood bathe the stones. He then makes his way into the woods, trudging across the mud with bloodstained boots, leaving a trail of dripping blood. Theren soon stands in front of a throne of bones hidden in the woods, blood stains his swords as he stares at the figure in the throne. Therens cold dead eyes lock onto the figure as the figure leans forward. The Nameless God speaks, admiration and fear lacing his voice. "Wait....something's different. This isn't the same noble hero I've fought before. No. You've changed. What have you done....?" Theren doesn't respond, merely raising his blades in challenge to his question.
Quinn stumbles a little bit, catching themselves on the trooper, "Jeez big guy, careful" He says with a soft chuckle
Rory watches from the rooftop, curling up as he trys to ignore the emotions this provokes
"O-oh hey Quinn. S-sorry bout that."
Theren looks at the townspeople with soulless, dead eyes. Two swords appear in his hands. "You all have been chosen for a cleansing."
"Its ok" He smiles warmly, "So where you off to in such a rush?"
Rory sighs, coming down and heading for the square despite what he's telling himself
"J-just gotta get back to my camp."
Theren has already fell a few people. Some try to fight while others flee.
"Oooo, can I come?" He asks, holding into their arm
Rory directs those who flee towards the shrine, dropping his cigarette along the way as he lets out a breath, "I'm sorry for my intrusion, but thats enough." He says to theren
"Sure." he says, sounding flustered.
"Who are you to say?"
He smiles brightly, partially hanging off them for a moment as they walk
"Just a shrinekeeper" He sighs, cracking his hands, "And who are you to decide these people need to die"

Theren is dragging a corpse through the woods. The Nameless God finally lays dead by Therens hand.
He hears a chuckle from behind him "Do you feel accomplished?"
Theren tilts his head, his cold, dead eyes landing on them. "Do you wish to be next?"
"That would serve no purpose other than to dull my blade. You are not worth the effort"
"I am death itself."
"Ah, another fledgling god who overestimates his powers. Tell me, what hold does death have over a being that cannot die?"
"You may not be able to die but I can put you through a world of pain."
He his hand on the hilt of his sword "Do you really wish to try that?"
"I could." he says evenly.
"Save me the trouble and don't try to fight"
"Nah, I'm good."
"Very well then"

He smiles brightly, partially hanging off them for a moment as they walk
"Just a shrinekeeper" He sighs, cracking his hands, "And who are you to decide these people need to die"
"How are you always so joyful?"
"Sinners, heretics, non believers, etc." Theren says, his cold eyes staring Rory down without flinching. His scarred face unwavering.
"Hmm, I like to keep an open mind. That and I'm in the arm of a handsome soldier such as yourself" He winks, "Overall, I like to look at what makes me happy."
"I... understand. But murder has never been, and will never be the answer to this" He says nervously, moving forward a bit

A man with what seemed to be a aviator outfit came into the town, he wore a brown opened jacket with some small badges on the left arm of it and with a slightly dark blond fluff on the edges of the hood of the jacket. Some of the buttons the outfit would have seem to have disappeared and a small hole is on the left pocket of it. They have light brown pants that don't seem to don anything on them. With Goggles covering their face some slight locks of short, somehow, bright pink hair drift down curl and meet at his forehead.
(Got the character idea from a song.)
There is quite the commotion in the town square. People surround a man who is setting up a pole. Tied to the pole is a dead god.

(Apologies, Kinda faded out of existence for a bit.)
The pink-haired man seems to slightly chuckle, a eyebrow raised at this...what one would deem Questionable thing. They waddled over to the man setting up the pole; "Uh- Hello there? Nice...Totem pole I want to say?" They cross their arm and gesture at the pole.

Thirteen is watching the carnage, preparing a plan of attack.
Mauric is watching over Nick, somewhat calmer but still very worried.
Caramel is roaming the forest.
Cadmus is surveying the attack, judging whether or not it should take a body or two.

“Why does this keep happening?!” He steps into plain view, swinging his flail and brandishing the holy symbol of Azuth.
