Eventually, you all manage to clear the monsters' corpses from the road enough to make way for the wagon, and head off once again.<br/><br/>Thankfully, the rest of the trip to Carthridge was uneventful.  It's late evening when you arrive, with the sun barely visible over the treetops.  The city seems quiet, near deserted, and the people you do see seem to be going about their business with barely any emotion; a few people look to see the newcomers to their town, but most just hurry along.<br/><br/>Soon after they've arrived, a young woman in dark red robes comes to meet you, followed by a group of young men in similar robes.  "You must be the heroes that Verna was sending," she said, bowing slightly.  "I am Cardinal Nadia.  Please, come this way.  My acolytes here will tend to your cart and belongings."  Giving another bow, she led the group to the temple.  Like the rest of the city, it was small and humble, and mostly deserted.  "Please, have a seat," she said after arriving in her study.  "I trust your trip went well?"
