: ...I missed?

: Nevermind that, I'll take care! Starting with you! Magruder unsheathed a blue tinted axe and swung at Anna with uncharacteristic speed.

But Anna avoided the second blow, and struck with her special lance, dodging the Kovitz steel shield protecting Magruder and piercing his armor. Winded, he tried to lift his shield, but Anna lunged again around the bandit leader's poor technique with it, and pierced him again.

And with that, Magruder's gang came to an end. But there was still someone else in the base...

~~~~Final Chapter Complete~~~~

XP: 35/100

[SeriousConcentrate]

Vahn went to Magruder's side and started searching his pockets for any information that might lead to a further investigation, like who sent him if anyone.

"Domenico wasn't among that group. We have to settle with him, too, before we go."

[Solymr]

Neither Magruder nor Karras had anything on them. If there was evidence, it had to be in the room deeper in the base.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Vahn stood up slowly, letting his joints pop back into place.

"Right. Anna, good job. Seraphiel, heal up Felicia and make sure Jaromer and Grelen's OK too. Naziri and Jackal, secure the base. I'm going further in."

He stalked through the base quietly, until he came to a locked door deep within it. Magruder hadn't been carrying a key, so he was going to have to open it the old fashioned way. He drew his club and commenced bashing at it.

[Solymr]

The lock gave after a couple of bashes, opening the door to the inner room. A table and a few chairs were there, but no trace of any paper, only a bag of gold sitting on top of it.

And from the other door leading to a side room, Vahn heard something breaking the silence of the base. Someone was praying.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Vahn grabbed the gold and tucked it away. He would distribute it later; the mercenaries deserved it for their work... and he'd take only a little for himself, to fund his next and perhaps last journey when that time came.

"You'd better pray. You've only seen Vahn the human. You're about to meet Vahn the devil."

He kicked open the door to the side room, knowing damn well that was going to make his hip and knee ache for days, and stood in the doorway.

"Magruder and all of his men are dead. Except one."

He let the Black Fire build around him as he stepped into the room, pushing the door mostly closed behind him.

[Solymr]

Domenico was startled when Vahn kicked open the door, but spoke when he finally saw who it was.

: Vahn! You made it!

The tone of the priest wasn't afraid as Vahn could have expected, but relieved.

[SeriousConcentrate]

"You're not fooling me, Domenico. I watched you use a staff to teleport here; the gold on the table was presumably taken from the town before they could pay the group. And you're the only one who told us about the druid's mine - coincidentally, that same druid was planning on overthrowing Magruder. And Yuri told me the last place you came from also happened to get overrun by Magruder's bandits."

Vahn took a deep drag from his smoke, until the thing was just ash, and flicked what was left aside before pointing his club at the priest.

"You're a betrayer to your very core, Domenico, and there's a special place in hell for you."

[Solymr]

Domenico took a deep breath to calm down.

: All of that... is true, but that's not the whole truth. Allow me to explain.

: I should start with my hometown. Yes, it was destroyed by Magruder and his bandits, but I had nothing to do with it. I escaped through pure chance, a miracle, and arrived at Kovitz without suspecting what would await me there.

Another deep breath.

: The town... is wicked, Vahn. Magruder's gang hadn't attacked Kovitz for a simple reason: they were on Bastian and the previous blacksmith, Evelyn's father payroll. They started focusing on Kovitz after I started stealing the payments they would make, using that very teleporting staff so that they wouldn't suspect me, just as I did with Yuri's last payment. You know, the bag of gold in that table out there.

: Why I did it? ...I saw no other option. I used the gold to turn them again Kovitz, not caring that I would die in the event of an attack, not after what they forced me to do...

Domenico's breathing was becoming more stressed.

: You see, Magruder's bandits didn't just pillage and destroy. They also... kidnapped people, and then delivered them to Kovitz... to use as slave work in the iron mines. Those iron mines I told you about, they were deemed too unsafe to be worked and closed down. But Bastian and Evelyn's father devised the use of slaves to keep mining for profit, and forced me to keep the slaves hidden in the catacombs of the church, under various threats.

: When I found out a group of mercenaries would arrive to help, I started considering helping you without ruining my cover. Neither Bastian, Evelyn or Yuri would have told you about the mines, they are Kovitz's dark secret, and they were counting on that druid to continue their operation after you were gone. That's why I told you.

: There is no evidence on paper... Karras and Bastian are smart enough to not leave a trail. But there's something they can't erase. Go back to the church, and pull on the third sconce to the right of the altar. That'll get you to the truth.
