The bard cannot help but smile to Alizome's reaction of his reminder to her. "Whatever you say my dear, although I would argue that staring down said monster's gullet only made you appreciate and see things a bit more clearly." he offers though would not press the issue, as he himself had been in the exact situation she was with that sea monster, had teetered on the brink of death.<br/><br/>When the elf proceeds to speak of his resistance to stomachs he rubs the back of his neck while his cheeks inherit a distinct rosy hue, his gaze darting down to the lizardess before him. "Yes, well, what Alizome claims is true, I am rather resistant to stomachs and was not simply walking freely around the temple. Even so I was able to hear things around me, and the priestess' voice was one I had picked up on." After hearing Shaklik speak he nods "It is possible she never went into the temple, I only knew that she was to bring one of the mules there for sacrifice." he comments leaning down to kiss her cheek softly. "Thank you my sweet, this information will help us out immensely." He assures her.<br/><br/>"I do not think setting up fires would be in our best interest, better to attack the enemy now while they may still yet be unprepared.  The sooner we are in and out the better I say..." he comments looking to the kitsune before speaking further. "As to your earlier question, allow me to divulge what I know, what we have been told. Bear in mind this is all speculation and could simply be false entirely. But what I do know is Surkil mentioned the possibility of their being half dragons guarding the temple, those descended from the half-fiend black dragon Rahashaak himself. These fabled half dragons are what some believe The Children of Rahasaak may refer to." he would inform her with a light shrug of his shoulders. "Whether they truly exist or not, well I suppose we shall just have to wait and see...' The bard concludes, "If there is only one entrance then our plan of attack should be quite clear, deal with the dracotaur and proceed inside from there. I do not think this engagement shall require the depth of planning that our assault on the campsites did." Xarces himself being more then ready to head to the temple right away and begin dealing with the dracotaur Shaklik mentioned, of course there is also the lure of finding more meals for the lovely lizardess which encourages him to push onward.
