*Seeing the man meant no harm, she lowered her crossbow.*
"You can't blame me for bein' cautious." *She said, quietly, when she noticed the stare received from one of her teammates.*
"He could've been an enemy." *She added, looking suspiciously at the man. But eventually, as nothing bad happened, Thistle abandoned her suspicions. There was work to do and it was down to them to do it.*
"Well, if we're goin' to attack this temple, we need t' know the terrain layout. I've been in the Salvainian army, under cap'n Gryphonheart, I know a bit about planning an attack." *Thistle said, after having waited for the teammates to finish asking their questions to the injured man.*
"Do you maybe have a map o' the temple? Or maybe you could draw one?" *She asked.*

*The man would shakily speak.*

"It was dark... So dark... We couldn't even see them as they cut them all down... All dead... All dead.."

"Th-the temple is small, very simple. A lot of it was destroyed, burned down. I don't know what it looks like now..."

"The only weapon I know they have are blades, a crossbow, and some kind of beast..."

*The information provided to the group by the man is... A bit pitiful, if Hitoshi is to be truly honest. All she knows now is the type of weapon she'll have to avoid... And the fact that the place is dark. Which... Well, that might help the group or hinder them. It really depends on if the cultists have any night vision, and if her friends have night vision as well. Since the temple was dark, yet the cultists seemed to have no issue killing all of the people inside, Hitoshi wonders if they must be able to see in the dark just fine, which... Well, if she's the only member of this party with night vision, will be a massive problem.*

*The strangely equipped short person (Hitoshi assumes that this is Akaise: Thistle seems like an appropriate name for the rowdier crossbow wielder rather than the deceptively gentle juggernaut) had a semi-answer to their question, it seems. "All dead. All dead." It's not exactly a great answer, but it does, somewhat, answer her. Nobody escaped, as far as this man can tell. Hitoshi assumes that she won't be able to squeeze much more information out of the man, but it might be worth a try anyway. She begins to ask the man some more questions. Although it could have just been that the cultists had been very clever with their ambush or even gotten lucky, it's worth asking about.*

"Okay. Tell us everything that happened. What you saw happen. You aren't telling us much right now, but if you tell us more, that would help a lot."
Tyrone
*Hitoshi is wondering if the cultists have the power of night vision. Maybe they're comprised of races with night vision? Maybe they have that Dark Vision spell Hitoshi heard about? Or maybe they don't have night vision at all, and they're just clever and competent ambushers who planned out the attack meticulously and happened to have it go very well for them. Whatever happened, they must know. Might help them learn a couple more details about the enemy.*

*So everyone else was killed by the cultists... The temple was dark, but it seemed to be day right now. Did they manage to remove all sources of light in the building, perhaps with some sort of magic? Either that, or their cult just attacked at night. Yet if that was the case, they would have had ample time to fortify their position in the invaded temple, as well as get reinforcements. It seemed that taking back the building would be a rather difficult mission either way.*

*Not having much else to ask, Akaise would simply nod along with Hitoshi's questions. That crossbow bolt in the man's shoulder looked quite severe... He needed medical attention soon, so their questioning would have to be short.*
