"We thank you for your aid, Cardinal. I am Sister Tess, and these are my companions." - Tess bowed her head towards their contact, recognizing the acolyte's robes when she saw the religious patterns - "We have come a long way at the request of Commander Verna, though our trip was not uneventful."<br/>When they were alone in the cardinal's study, the paladin would explain about their encounter on the road, what she was able to tell from looking at their corpses, and how they fought. Hopefully the cardinal could offer some more insight into the situation.
