The old man bowed his head thankfully to Piro at the time the healing spell worked through his weary bones. It was obvious the spell alone would not heal broken bones to perfect state, but it did let him stand up and the bones were put back in right place, and their healing started at least. The bit of work the magic did would go a good way in ensuring they'd heal right, but the man likely needed several days of good rest later on that the actual wounds would be gone, though the magic was now holding him together where his physical body might not be yet up to the task. Bowing his head grateful for the help, he volunteered a bit more information before setting ready to leave.<br/><br/><strong>"When your fight began, the damned soul that was the Imp's 'favorite bastard', one bastard that truly relished in torturing the other damned and even feeding the occasional bastard to the hounds... he snatched a talisman near the exit from the hook near the door and ran out with it. Seeing as I haven't seen a sight of him since the fight, I would wager he took something he thought worth saving and sought to flee this place. If you have any aid out there they might have noticed him but if not, whatever he took he probably left with."</strong>This said, the old man bowed his head while making his way towards the entrance. The large doors there closed at the time.<br/><br/>Jia's work on the gear the foes had carried revealed the guards each had a minor enchantment on some of their gear. For the captain of the guard, the gauntlets on his wrists shone with a bit of magic, as did the boots he carried. On two of the other guards, a lone ring could be found on each man's hand, though neither carried obvious signs of their purpose. Their bodies contained a set of pouches containing small vials of what appeared to be watery illiaster, and some dried meat. They also held coin pouches for a sum of fifteen gold pieces and sixty silver coins, as well as a set of pouches that held copper-made tears, and silver-forged fangs of some sort, and a single, strange black metal piece that looked like a quarter of a large coin. It had inscription 'Obol' upon its surface and it seemed like its edges had been made to be snapped apart from one another. Given that it came from the captain, it was likely the highest kind of coin they had. Beyond that, a set of more familiar rosy potions marked with the simple healer's sigil was easy enough to notice, though the 3 red potions gave no indication of the<em>level</em>of healing they provided, and given each insignia was a little different, they likely were of different sorts.<br/><br/>Looking around, a single metal breast-plate could be found after a bit of looking in the imp's 'laboratory slash throne-room', and apparently it was one taken off a womans' figure for it was shaped in a way that it would have clenched Piro at the middle yet left empty space between the plate and his chest higher up. For the others, it might not be an exact fit but certainly closer than the male breast-plates were. It held a magical aura to it which had apparently protected it from rust amidst some other things that had sought to hide it. Besides that there was a single spear in the Imp's gear that seemed to carry a presence of magic. The spear itself seemed to be of petrified wood, the metal tip a piece of well-forced steel that seemed to carry a pair of runes inscribed into it and a single blood-red gemstone in the spear's shaft near the metal tip.<br/><br/>Lastly, Jia's search turned up a large spellbook that looked to have weathered a fair share of abuse. Some pages were hanging loose, and a few scrolls had been tucked in between the pages as well. Unfortunately, beyond the scrolls the book seemed to have been written partially in some code, no doubt hard for any but its original owner to read through. A bit of work might reveal all it contained though. As for the scrolls, a total of eight arcane scrolls lay there, the most powerful among them appearing to be a scroll of<em>teleport</em>that had been left to rot in midst those pages. The bloodstain and the hole in the front cover as well as the hole piercing the first few pages suggested its owner might not be around to reclaim it either.
