"The only spineless coward here is slinking into a deeper hole. I can confirm that that creep was following after me when I branched off to examine the mansion. At least he's not trying to drag me in after him this time. I cannot stand other people touching me." Lilia says, her ice arctic as her eyes narrowed. Somehow she felt disappointed, but couldn't exactly pinpoint why. Perhaps it was because he claimed to have been saving her whenever he obsessively tried to force her to do things she didn't want to do.
"Who wants to go in after him? I certainly won't. Anyone up for exploring the pond, I'll be poking around over there."
Lilia struts out of the chapel and heads for the pond whether somebody comes with her or not. This group thing was so overrated, it made being attacked by freaky parasites more appealing.
Harvey sighs then walks across the room to go downstairs.
" Don't worry little girl I'll find your mum. Once those psychopaths are done being idiots they might even help if they ever grow a spine. "
Head downstairs.
Just as lilia is struttin' out of the church, she passes Harvey who is on his way to the hatch. [harvey hidden action] Just as they cross Harvey feigns hitting Lilia in the face with his elbow, which makes Lilia recoil back in suprise. They both angrily go on towards their respective destinations.
"Well I better go help Harvey so he doesn't commit suicide or something, can you girls help the little one?"
Follow Harvey
You follow Harvey down the hatch. You both click on your flashlights, revealing a rectangular room. The walls are lined with ancient coffins in various states of decay. Theres a rather large hole in the wall at the end of the catacomb, but it's too dark to see what's on the other side.
..... it specifically says in my action that I'm sneaking. As in being quiet and that the only time I'd reveal myself is if you got into trouble. Which you didn't. So I wouldn't have. I don't want to nitpick but you would not have known I was following you.
Ending up at the same place? Yes, followed you to it? No. ))
((I kind of interrupted you in the middle of that and started telling you things. Not very conducive to sneaking.))
"Ah... I needed that," Joy says, taking several deep breaths.
Utilize tranquil state of mind to search for location of any of the black, evil things, or the Wyrms of Pestilence or whatever they're called.
You reach out your senses once more, [adept=4+1] Your senses spread out into the hatch, and you definately sense some small evil signatures beyond the catacomb and a big one just outside the church, where the rectangle building is. As you keep going further into the underground, the feeling of evil keeps getting bigger and bigger. After a whie, the presence seems to push back against your inquisitive senses, and you can continue no further.
You regain your senses inside the chruch, and settle on watching the young girl. she doesn't seem to be going anywhere at the moment.
Eleanor ignored the argument going on keeping her attention on the little girl "Don't worry we will get your mommys back soon enough and we will get you back home" she turned her attention to Joy "Joy could you please look after her for a bit, I'm going to go to Lilia and try and convince her to come back. It's a bad idea for any of us to be alone right now"
Quickly hurry after Lilia
YOu hurry after Lilia, and catch up to her just as she's nearing the pond. It's waters are murky, and its surface eerily quiet.
