<br/>Aria grinned when she rendezvoused with Kass, "Hauling is no fun in such heat, eh? It'll be nice to be back in shade..."<br/><br/>The camel seemed rather surprised as it found itself abruptly in the courtyard, but didn't react crazily. Aria patted its snout again.<br/><br/>Two 'new' Sharessan priestesses, like several seen before cotton-skirted and topless save for ornate semi-covering necklaces, happened to be going along one of the arcades. They reacted with surprise but then a relief which indicated that'd heard about Rana, and rushed up eager to help, seeming impressed that the high priestess was in fact already healed. One inspected Rana's dilated pupils with a healer's eye and remarked, "A mind-sapping drug, but nothing days of rest of a restorative spell can't help with..."<br/><br/>She and the other priestess each cast once; Kass would recognize the spell colloquially known as 'Lesser Restoration'. When one explained what thy were doing, Aria remarked, "Aha, I've a wand of similar effect..."<br/><br/>One waved her hand, "Truly appreciated, but to save your wand-magic,  think we can likely scare up another priestess or two with the spell prepared - 'tis one of the more often sought-after by townsfolk who come for healing - whom we'll send along to the room."<br/><br/>She departed to do just that, while the other mentioned that the impostor was safely unconscious last she heard, offered to escort the camel to the temple stable. Aria helped Kass lead Rana to her room; the high priestess plopped down on the bed. Staring at the bare stone ceiling, she murmured vapidly, "So cool...so refreshing..."<br/><br/>Aria poured from a nearby water decanter into a clay cup to offer the priestess, and timidly asked, "Do you remember anything..."<br/><br/>" 'bout what?" the priestess asked, still not terribly self-aware.<br/><br/>"Being captured."<br/><br/>"Hmmm.." she thought for a moment, "Out at pedestal...where fake statue now....looking for any marks or dropped things of thieves....just remember rushes of air, pricing sensations, mind-magic. Then awake in the desert in the statue."<br/><br/>Aria had stood on the balcony and held up the compass again. "Huh," she gestured to the open desert which the room had a rather good view of. The balcony faced south, but by looking west she could see some of the distant Dragonsword Mountains, far beyond the lone peak of Goldflail. "Compass is pointing kinda west now, might after all be to that mount Goldflail that the friend you made here gave us directions relative to."<br/>
