Tarris said, gesturing towards Victoria, "If they haven't begun the ritual yet, do you think you can approach the Baroness as her sister or as a representative of the Sins and draw her off?  Then I'll hit her from behind and tie her up.  From there, you can ghost her right out of the camp and I'll...<em>handle</em>Lady Aerwyn." she suggested, "She's savvy, certainly, but she has every reason to trust you."<br/><br/>Tarris clucked her tongue in annoyance when Victoria mentioned that there'd been another Soulless present at the Cultist's sex club cum church.<br/><br/>"Please tell me you didn't see me making an ass of myself because you were scrying someone else in the church." she groaned, "That nondetection potion wasn't cheap."<br/><br/>Tarris pulled the reins of her horse as Victoria pointed out the dark-haired young woman who was in the process of being rather<em>thoroughly</em>groped by an imp.  Her horse snorted in annoyance as it came to a halt, and she patted its neck.<br/><br/>"Not the cult's, that'd be my guess.<em>Someone</em>desecrated the altar before I got there ... if she was as far along then as I am now, it could've easily been her." she cocked her head to the side, "Of course, if she's further along now ... she might be on Esmerelda's side."<br/><br/>Tarris threw her leg up and over her saddle, sliding down to the rocky ground and patting her horse on the side.  She didn't bother to tie him up, preferring to leave him free to graze, but she knew he'd come when he heard her whistle.<br/><br/>"She doesn't seem to have spotted us.  What say we follow her in?  If the Cult's already scouted a safe passage, there's no sense in us not exploiting it."<br/><br/>Unfortunately, as they approached the great stone arch built into the side of an ancient barrow, the curious pair vanished from sight.  Taris quickly cast Detect Magic to try and keep them in sight, but the blue glow of illusion magic<em>pulled</em>, distorted, and vanished before her eyes.  Taris tutted in annoyance, readying her bow and pulling her hood forward.<br/><br/>"Well...shit.  Back to plan A, it seems."<br/><hr/><div class="floatleft">(https://i.imgur.com/WLVeGed.png)</div><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">Memorized Spells</div><div class="spoiler_body">Cantrips:  Detect Magic, Light, Mend, Mage Hand<br/>1st Level:  Expeditious Retreat, Magic Missile, Magic Missile, Obscuring Mist, Shield<br/>2nd Level:  Invisibility, Mirror Image, Scorching Ray, Scorching Ray, Web<br/>3rd Level:  Clay Skin, Haste, Fireball</div></div>
