Delia was made quite aware of the authority of the church by how what she would call "the common folk" reacted to her presence. A regular priest might receive a different reaction, but the presence of an Inquisitor typically meant one thing only. It made her feel a little...isolated, not for the first time either. She genuinely cared for the people, and felt her duty was necessary for their protection, but a little bit of her wished she could just interact with people on a more personal level. She was so lost in her musings that she failed to notice some of the more dangerous folk as she walked through the rougher areas of the city. A lone woman, especially one with her looks, would have invited some unsavory attention, but even if they were willing to chance the fighting skills of an Inquisitor, they weren't likely to chance the wrath of the church.<br/><br/>As she finally arrived at the warehouse she was reminded what her presence meant as the poor clerk practically fell over himself trying to appease her. It was a little embarrassing, to tell the truth, and she held up a hand to forestall his efforts "Be calm, good sir. I am not here for an inspection. I am certain that everything is in order as far as the goods kept here." she says. Even though her mission has little to do with it, she does try to hint with her tone that everything better BE in order. "I have reason to believe that this location will be threatened by...corrupt forces. As such, for the safety of both of you I request you leave here until things are resolved." she says. She didn't want to give out too much information, her request alone should be sufficient. She was worried that one of the men here might be the next vessel for D'zuk, just for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Perhaps a more experienced or cynical Inquisitor might have kept the men here, as backup or even bait, but...Delia was a little softhearted, despite her exterior. It gave her strength when it came to protecting the people, but it also meant she wasn't quite prepared to potentially make the hard choices someone in her position might have to make. So far she's been lucky, but how long would her luck hold?<br/><br/>Once she's cleared the place out she started to work, deciding that mystical preparations would serve her best again D'zuk. Her faith and her blade would likely serve her as well, but preparing some sort of ritual to weaken him seemed like a smart move. She didn't have a lot of time though, and she couldn't be too overt...she was pretty sure she wouldn't be able to go undetected, but if her preparations were too blatant the cult might call the attempt off, even if that would ruin all their previous plans. As she paced around the warehouse, making small mystical markings as well as getting a better idea of the layout of the place, she hoped she could strike the right balance between not scaring them away but still weakening them enough to easily defeat them.<br/><br/><br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Roll?</div><div class="spoiler_body"> Not sure if I should roll this now, but just in case:<br/>Spending one pool for the roll<br/>Roll Result: schnookums rolled: 2d6<br/>Comment:<br/>Result: 5, 1</div></div><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Delia Corbeanu</div><div class="spoiler_body">(https://thumb.ibb.co/fuc8Ro/30fbd43781f5d2d5f0e51e696e63b06a_gothic_fantasy_art_fantasy_women.jpg) (https://ibb.co/fuc8Ro)<br/>Health: 4/4<br/>Pleasure: 0/5<br/>Anal Virgin?: Y<br/>Oral Virgin?: Y<br/>Vaginal Virgin?: Y<br/><br/>PERCEPTION: 1/2<br/>(technology): 0<br/>Investigate:  3<br/>Truesight:  2<br/>Detect:  1<br/><br/>BODY: 2<br/>(gaia): 0<br/>Melee:  3<br/>Fuck:  1<br/>Resist:  2<br/><br/>CHARISMA: 2/3<br/>(corruption): 0<br/>Diplomacy:  1<br/>Spellcraft:  2<br/>Willpower:  3</div></div>
