*Looking at the hallway in detail, it'd be noticeably fancy, nothing too much. The drapery is a ripped blue cloth, the murals are poorly done, most of everything here is passable to be in a church but on a budget. It really has that scorching smell the cult is behind no doubt, I wonder why they decided to place this as their base of operations. Perhaps a defense is necessary against vampire, who knows why they want to be protected against them. The hallways is about 20ft long and most of it is made of inflammable material except the afformentioned drapery.*

*The high elf huntress nodded and discreetly approached Horace and stood behind him. She let him take a look at what was inside the building before she whispered to him*
`"What do you see? Do you hear anything?"` *She silently asked.*
*She loaded another enchanted arrow in advance, and readied her grip on Givrépines.*
`"I guess that they won't get out of here now. Should we enter by force? I could cover you with my icy arrows.*
*Although she faintly spoke to not get heard, the haughty elf was surprisingly sounding a lot friendlier than when they met. Did Horace get her attention or confidence? For sure being an elf was an advantage when standing alongside Elnarwen anyway.*

*Horace would be silent for the moment as he stood behind the door, his ears twitching to even the smallest sound. However, even though his senses were keen, it would seem he couldn't hear anything inside. He'd let out a small sigh as the huntress moved behind him and began asking questions. Turning to her, he would shake his head.*
"Can't hear anything, not sure if the doors too thick or if they're just that quite. Could be that they're escaping, so its a good idea to bust in now. You go for the leader, seeing how they're' probably gonna run while we fight the guards."
*Horace's tone was quite depressing, he seemed disappointed in himself for not being able to hear his opponents through the door. The elf would shake his head, again, trying to refocus himself, he would nod to Elnarwen, and silently open the door. Peeking in on the other side.*

*Oop sorry I hadn't noticed that last part about Horace listening in, I'll remedy that here. He had heard the cult leader yelling about invaders and that the cultists must get ready for combat, noises of armor being equipped would be heard from the room.*
Arlene
*Elnarwen was ready. As the door slowly opened an unfriendly yell echoed in the church's walls, giving orders to other people. But judging by the steely noises, the young huntress assumed they weren't ready to defend themselves against the duo.*
*She obeyed Horace's order and fired her crystal arrow to the yelling man as soon as the gap between the opened door became enough for her to aim decently. If any of their opponent had a protection ability, it was their time, since the boss was targetted immediately. But that would have also given a cover for Horace who would have been able to sneak on a casting minion.*
*The arrow would have been precisely shot thanks to the bow's enchantments, but in any case, Elnarwen loosed a second arrow in case the first attempt would have failed.*
*Assuming her elfic comrade would have done his part of the job, she didn't feel like giving him any other indication and focused in the battle plainly without a word this time.*

*As Elnarwen released her arrow, Horace would take a moment to draw a blue magic circle in the air, the circle lighting up and a grey wolf appearing. ``Spirit Wolves ( 15 mana used, 80 mana left)``. "Alpha, eliminate cultist targets." Horace and his wolf would then move through the doorway. As they arrived in the Chapel, Horace would quickly glance around, looking for any cultist's who seemed to be casting a spell. If he would spot one, he'd quickly move to impale it with his long sword, though clumsily as he it had been a while since he last used a long sword. If the caster was too far away, he would ignore them, instead, moving to attack the nearest cultist there. His wolf would move to attack the second nearest cultist, separate of Horace's target.*
