<span style="font-weight: bold">Priestess</span><br/><br/>Weakly, the Priestess struggles to raise her head… only to see Aethon slowly devouring the unconscious descendant of her god in a series of long, leisurely gulps.  “Thus the line of Rhashaak passes from this world,” she sighs, softly, and she begins to hack and cough. “She always was insolent, a dishonor to her divine forebear.” The bulge in her tum can be seen being gently squeezed back into her oesophagus, propelled up it, and soon Xarces’s feet can be seen, peeking out from between her serrated teeth. All the<span style="font-style: italic">fight</span>seems to have gone out of her, that she’s willingly giving up her mammalian meal.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">Game management</span><br/><br/>With a little effort, Alizome is able to open the various chests one way or another. The valuables contains within are strictly baubles - a selection of semiprecious gems and stones, primarily Jades and Garnets, exotic animal skins and brightly colored feathers, with a total value of<span style="font-weight: bold">150gp</span>. There are<span style="font-weight: bold">4 potions of cure light wounds</span>. A much larger selection of loot exists in the Priestess’s vestry - various treasures too large or fragile to toss down to the dragons. These include an array of spices, objec ‘d art, and furnishings. They have weight sufficient to<span style="font-weight: bold">encumber</span>you, and a value of approximately<span style="font-weight: bold">4350gp</span>. Additionally, you recognise the spear<span style="font-weight: bold">Armaekrixner, the ancestral weapon ‘stolen’ from the abused lizardfolk you encountered whilst travelling to the temple</span>- it has significant cultural value, and would be worth perhaps<span style="font-weight: bold">500gp</span>to a collector of such artefacts.
