It will follow Ceylan, Cayde and Malerie as they try to help out the citizens in the Holy City of Vegard, in the far north of the Beast country above Ryke. The city (in truth little more than a town in size) is a popular pilgrimage destination for Beasts that wish to reflect upon their inner nature. However, it suddenly has many of its residents falling prey to all sorts of illness. This RP will focus on the adventure aspects with mystery and slice of life sprinkled through-out.</b><br>

After their adventure through the Eastern Outskirts of Ryke, Ceylan had been summoned to Ryken with urgency. He wasn't sure why, but he knew that such a summon was rare for a missive like himself, so he abided, asking Cayde if he wished to come along. Whilst in the capital, things moved fast for Ceylan. He was promoted to High Priest, got himself a new staff and ended up with an urgent mission; to help out in a place in the northern parts of the Beast country above Ryke. He was to travel to the nearest bigger city in the Beast country by portal and to travel to the Holy City of Vegard by foot from there.<br>
<br>
Considering nobody knew what caused the strange type of illnesses, Ceylan didn't hesitate for a moment and immediately asked Cayde to join him. The alchemist's knowledgable might be very valuable when strange illnesses were at play. Besides, Ceylan had grown fond of having his company during their last mission. Luckily enough, Cayde agreed.<br>
<br>
The journey part of this adventure was very calm, other than travel through portals being an experience in and of itself. The road towards their destination was well-paved and equally well-guarded. As the city was growing closer, Ceylan was growing increasingly excited. His tail was showing as much, as it was wagging left and right at an impressive pace. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I've heard that most of the Cardinals in the Syncretist Church have visited the Holy City of Vegard during their lives, as it gives great insight into what type of religion the people in this country practice. It's amazing to be able to make the journey myself now, other than the reason for it being rather ominous.”</b></span><br>
<br>
However, as they got closer, they eventually reached what seemed to be a cliff, with nothing but a steep way down into the ocean. Ceylan was looking around, somewhat confused, until they could spot what seemed to be a bridge among the mists. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That must be it!”</b></span> Ceylan said, as he was excited all over again, heading for the bridge. Thanks to Cayde's higher perception, another thing would stand out to him. It was awfully quite here, especially for a passageway into a place as important as the Holy City of Vegard. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: red">[OOC: they are entering from the top right of the image. Imagine the bridge extending onto the cliff described above and them going towards the descending path into the city.]</span><br>

As the combination of a simple girl that wishes to heal and help others and a [monster] that wishes to trick others into deals in exchange for healing, Malerie and Malady alike had very good reasons to be in the Holy City of Vegard. Whilst the city would normally be guarded well, with guards checking the titles of everyone that wished to enter, she would now find the place in disarray. As many of the guards were falling ill as well, it would be easy to find a moment during which she could sneak into the city. Whilst her strange appearance would stand out, there were few people in good enough health to bother with it. If anything, she'd soon learn that many people that were willing to do a lot for a cure to their ailments. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: red">[OOC: if you wish for Malerie to have been in the city for a while before Ceylan and Cayde arrived, I'd be okay with it. I could PM you some details of what she'd have encountered. Otherwise, assume she arrived only moments before Ceylan and Cayde.]</span></div>

Cayde had learned a lot from his previous adventure. From his short time in Aston to the return to Ryken, he'd gained an abundance of invaluable knowledge. By studying the people of Aston, he'd learned a great deal about their survival skills, and as he stopped at the apothecary back in Ryken, he managed to fit in some quick lessons from his uncle, learning a few new potion recipes in the process. Despite all that, he still couldn't get the thought of the gnoll out of his head, but recalling that encounter did make him feel just a little bit more confident in his speech skills; he couldn't have imagined what would've changed if he wasn't quick with his words.<br>
<br>
Now incredibly eager to test his newfound knowledge, Cayde sought to embark on another adventure, and when Ceylan asked Cayde to accompany him once more, he swiftly accepted. If his last journey was <i>that </i>eye-opening, there was no telling what he could learn from this one. Plus, with everything he and Ceylan had been through, Cayde felt it'd be a sin not to travel with him again.<br>
<br>
Thankfully, the trip went smoothly, and soon enough, they were drawing closer to the city. As he made his way, Cayde couldn't help but notice Ceylan's evident excitement. Although he hadn't heard of the Holy City of Vegard until recently, it was clearly of great importance to Ceylan. However, the more he thought about the city, the more he started to remember <i>why </i>they were visiting Vegard, and the thought hung in his mind. Though small outbreaks of certain illnesses weren't rare in some cities, Cayde could only imagine what disease was spreading here - what malady could affect an entire city?<br>
<br>
But before he could think more of the matter, Cayde stopped in his tracks, seeing as the path ahead of him ended in a drop. Confused, he turned to Ceylan for answers, only to hear the priest point out a bridge in the distance. As the priest wandered over to it, Cayde followed suit, but not before sparking up a bit of conversation. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Y'know Ceylan, you really made this place sound amazing, but doesn't it seem a bit... quiet?" </b></span>He briefly glanced down the bridge, but from all he could see, they were the only ones crossing it, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"There's an outbreak going on, we know that much, but word couldn't get out that fast, right? So how bad could it possibly be down there?" </b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde shook his head; maybe he was just overthinking things. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Uhh, sorry, Do I sound paranoid? I don't mean to sound paranoid."</b></span></div>

The doctor just didn't understand it. She had been here for days, doing her best to help the people of the city, but every time she cured one, they would come down with something new days later. It wasn't like a plague, or no plague that she had ever seen. Every person was coming down with a different illness each time. They weren't spreading anything to each other, so there had to be some sort of outside interference with this town.<br>
<br>
She left the house of someone close to the city entrance after helping them as best she could. Though she had made rounds of the entire city, healing whoever she could, at this point, she was prioritizing the young, the weak, and the elderly, as those were the ones in biggest danger from this. But if whatever was happening wasn't stopped at the source, there was no way that she would be able to keep this up, and there would be no way she, nor her poor focus, could hold up. <br>
<br>
As she left the home, something caught her eye, and she looked towards the entrance of the city. Two people were slowly making their way towards the entrance. She squinted, trying to get a better view of who they were, and seeing one of them instantly made her frown. A plague doctor? In this world? She wasn't sure whether to be flattered, insulted, or incredulous. But either way, that most likely meant that they were here to help, which her tired body couldn't be more happy for.​</div></div>

Ceylan's eagerness to head for the bridge was diminished by Cayde giving him some words of warning. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I... well. Yes.”</b></span> The mixed feelings of visiting an awesome place like this during these circumstances were real.<br>
<br>
As they approached the bridge further, they would find exactly one guard 'standing' watch. Although in his case, he wasn't exactly standing, as he leaning against the wall. He looked up when Ceylan and Cayde approached him.<br>

<span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>“Halt. The city is currently...”</b></span> He coughed. <span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>“... closed.”</b></span> He then took a closer look, noticing Cayde's plague mask. <span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>“Unless... Wait. Are you here to help?”</b></span><br>
<br>
Ceylan nodded. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Yes. The Syncretist Church sent us.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The guard glossed over him and Ceylan. <span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>“Alright. You can head on through, but I...”</b></span> He paused, suppressing another cough. <span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>... warn you that it's going to be tough.”</b></span><br>
<br>
At that point, Ceylan couldn't stand just watching. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“If you'd allow me.”</b></span> He stepped forwards, putting his hand over the guard's head. The latter looked extremely sceptical, but he was too ill to protest. After Ceylan offering a [Healing Prayer], however, the guard was starting to look considerably better.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>“That's...”</b></span> The guard stretched his wings and arms a bit in surprise. Then showed what might pass for a smile among beaked races. <span style="color: #FFFACD"><b>“It seems there might be hope for our city yet.”</b></span><br>
<br>
As Ceylan was doing so, Cayde, were he interested enough, would've been able to make out what this guard had suffered from thanks to his medicine knowledge. It was a pretty bad case of the bird flue. From the guard's coughing, it had affected his lungs badly enough for him to start coughing up blood before long, at which point it'd become deadly. Their timely intervention had likely saved this man's life.<br>
<br>
It looked like they were off to a great start, but as they were crossing the bridge, Cayde would spot that Ceylan was concerned more than anything. He'd soon share why. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That took more out of me than I thought. If the entire city is like this, I won't be able to do much.”</b></span> Concern was visible in his eyes. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“We'll have to find out the source of this quickly.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The descent down towards the actual city was beautiful. The ocean stretched out before them, with its water barely moving thanks to the gentle breeze. The cliffs, the second bridge, the stubborn plant-life that managed to make its home on these rocks. It was truly magnificent. This place was truly a natural and architectural miracle. <br>
<br>
The closer they descented to the buildings, however, the more ominous the situation got. Moments after nearing the first building, below the spiralling stairs, where the village's entrance was, Ceylan suddenly felt overwhelmed by something. He grabbed his head as his vision turned black, barely even managing to remain standing. His sixth sense was going off even more than in the gnoll's forest. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Something really bad is going on here...”</b></span> He managed to force out, as he was trying to regain his composure.<br>
<br>
Malerie, having just spotted the two newcomers, would also spot Ceylan almost fainting directly after setting foot within the city's borders. Cayde, perceptive as he was, would easily spot Malerie from a distance. The shared beakedness would likely draw attention, after all. However, thanks to her species sharing some similarities with a few beast species, she wouldn't instantly stand out as a monster.</div>

After the encounter with the bridge guard, Cayde got an idea of whatever might be causing the outbreak. From the guard's symptoms, it was likely a bad case of the flu, probably the avian-infecting strain if it managed to affect a beastkin at this level. Although it was a virus that mainly affected birds or bird-related beastkin, Cayde had read of times when humans or other races had fallen ill from it, all of them described similar symptoms to the guard. Regardless, the avian flu was treated just like any other flu, so with a bit of help from the city and Ceylan's healing magic, Cayde was pretty confident they could get to the bottom of this. <br>
<br>
Though, that confidence slowly waned as Ceylan voiced his concern. If healing that one person took that much effort, perhaps they were dealing with something far worse than just the flu. Still, Cayde had his priorities straight, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Definitely. First, we find whatever's causing this, then we work on treating people. It's only gonna get worse if we don't stop it." </b></span><br>
<br>
The journey to the city gates provided a nice distraction from the outbreak. As he descended, Cayde's eyes widened with wonder as they gazed upon the colossal cliffs and the boundless ocean stretched out before him. It all seemed so new! He couldn't remember the last time he's been this close to the sea. A few days ago, he was camping outside of Ryken, and look at him now, visiting seaside cities.<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b><i>"If only they could see me now."</i></b></span>  <br>
<br>
Eventually, Cayde made it near the village's entrance, though he was still admiring his surroundings. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Man, sure is beautiful, isn't it, Ceylan?" </b></span>He said, but as he turned to face him, he saw Ceylan clutch his head and give a foreboding warning. Immediately, that brought Cayde back to their adventure in the woods, how Ceylan had made a similar forewarning, and the dreadful things that followed soon after. If this prediction had caused Ceylan so much pain, there was definitely something else going on here, something way direr. <br>
<br>
Despite all that, Cayde rushed over to Ceylan and laid a hand on his back, helping him regain his composure. At that moment, Cayde looked up towards the village and saw someone standing in the distance. He squinted his eyes and was just able to make out a person with a plague doctor's mask - just like him. Likely a doctor helping the village, Cayde thought maybe they'd share some details on the outbreak, and so with his free hand, he waved them over. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Excuse me!" </b></span>He called out, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We're here to help! Can you come over?" </b></span></div>

The woman frowned slightly at being called over, but still came, knowing that they just came into the city and must want to know what was happening. Her eyes flicked to the other man, the one who seemed to be coming down with something of his own, and her frown deepened. They had just come into town, she didn't expect someone to get sick that quickly. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Hey! Umm, help... Not sure what you can do. It's pretty bad here..." </span>She glanced back towards the main section of town, thinking about the hard time she had been having personally, not caring that her mask opened as she talked, making it quite obvious that she wasn't a plague doctor like Cayde. She turned back to the two, continuing. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Whatever this is, I don't think it's something we can deal with just by using magic or herbs."</span>​</div></div>

<span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Thanks.”</b></span> Ceylan told Cayde, as he managed to get himself together a bit. There was something really wrong with this city, but he was pretty sure Cayde would've also picked up on that by now. He then looked over at the newcomer. She was some sort of oddly-dressed avian, from what Ceylan could gather. Even though something felt a bit off about her, the overwhelming feeling of something being wrong in this city currently preoccupied his mind.<br>
<br>
Her words did manage to reach him, however, as he would reply. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“You're correct. There's more than just the sickness in the air, like a tangible mist.”</b></span> He wasn't sure how else to explain his sixth sense constantly blaring at him. It didn't give him details on what was wrong either, for that matter. Just that something was terribly wrong. <br>
<br>
That's when he realised common courtesy was a thing. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Ah, apologies for my belated introduction. I'm Ceylan, high priest of the Syncretist Church. This here is Cayde, alchemist by trade.”</b></span><br>
<br>
As Ceylan was introducing himself and Cayde, a small rabbit women hurriedly hopped over to them. Malerie would recognise her as Miss Nana, the city's main doctor. Other than Malerie herself, Nana was probably the biggest reason why nobody had died yet, but the woman was reaching the point of exhaustion. Even so, she ignored the newcomers and instantly got to business.<br>

<span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Quickly! You've got to come quickly! The mayor has fallen terribly ill!”</b></span> She didn't wait for an answer, instead hopping in the direction of one of the large buildings at the centre of town, the mayor's office. Malerie wouldn't have set foot inside there yet, nor would she have seen the mayor, but she'd have heard the rumours that he'd been investigating the illnesses on his own.<br>
<br>
Ceylan, although not the intended recipient of that message, nodded to Cayde. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Let's go as well.”</b></span> Saving the mayor would give them a quick way to establish a good connection with the leadership in the city. That, and Ceylan wouldn't even consider not going to help.<br>
<br>
They'd find the mayor inside his office, barely conscious and slumped over his desk. His eyes, however, showed a dangerous red. Furthermore, Malarie and Cayde in particular would spot some drool around his lips. He might just be suffering from the infamous 'Mad Cow Disease'. <br>

After Miss Nana bounded off to the mayor, Cayde quickly followed suit. However, as he made his way, he couldn't get one thought out of his head: what exactly <i>was</i> Malerie? After witnessing her speak, he knew she wasn't human, but unlike the previous beastkin he saw, she didn't resemble any animal - or at least, not as apparent as most do. Cayde thought she was some kenku, but where were her feathers? And do Kenkus always have grey, smooth skin? After a while, Cayde decided not to think of it any further. Not only were there more significant problems at hand, but it also wouldn't be a bright idea to get on anyone's bad side. After all, he was here to help, not to pry at someone's identity. <br>
<br>
Eventually, he caught up with Ceylan and Malerie at the mayor's office and immediately noticed the bull-man slumped over the desk. Eyes squinting under his mask, Cayde took a few cautious steps around the mayor, scanning his body. Spotting the mayor's red eyes and drooling lips, Cayde knew he wasn't suffering from the flu, and considering the circumstances, he definitely wasn't poisoned. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Well, he isn't coughing up a storm, so it isn't the flu, and uh, I don't <i>think</i> the flu gives you red eyes either." </b></span>He thought out loud, still pacing around the mayor, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"But considering the soldier we saw before had an animal-related disease, maybe the mayor has one too?"</b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde took a moment to think of any bovine-related diseases before finally landing on Mad Cow Disease. Although he'd had only read about it, the symptoms seemed to line up. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"If I have to guess, maybe it's... Mad Cow Disease?" </b></span>he said incredulously, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"I mean, I've never heard of a person contracting it before, but the mayor does resemble a bull, so it isn't too farfetched, right?" </span></b>Cayde turned over to Malerie; maybe she could share some insight on this, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"What do you think?" </b></span></div>

Cayde was quick to form a theory that it was Mad Cow Disease, which Malerie was equally quick  to confirm. Along with Ceylan, she'd gotten close to the mayor in order to examine him. In case of Ceylan, he was already offering a prayer in order to start healing the mayor, although it didn't seem to have an immediate effect. Perhaps the mayor's case was already in a late stage?<br>

</div>It happened in mere seconds. From looking like there was barely any life in him to entering a raging state, the mayor shifted gears almost instantly. <span style="color: #800000"><b>“BE GONE YOU DEMON!!!”</b></span> He shouted at the top of his lungs, whilst headbutting the nearest person to him with his horns, which happened to be Ceylan. The latter had not accounted for Mad Cow Disease's name giving trait; the psychosis it might induce. Cayde and Malerie had also failed to account for it or warn Ceylan of it, which led to Ceylan being caught off guard and getting the air knocked out of him whilst being flung across the room, crashing into a bookshelf and feeling a few things crack. He would normally be able to heal himself, but his blessed fortune had abandoned him in this instance, as he'd hit his head particularly hard, which knocked him out before he could heal himself.<br>
<br>
The mayor himself would also head-butt in the direction of Malerie, but considering he'd gone after Ceylan first, Malerie would be granted a bit more time to prepare herself and possibly dodge out of the way. The mayor would also leave it at that, as he'd rush at the door and storm through, forcing miss Nana to jump out of his path whilst the mouth-foaming mayor ran into the streets. <span style="color: #800000"><b>“I'LL HAVE YOUR HEAD, YOU HEAR?!?”</b></span> He shouted to nobody in particular, before running off into the distance. Malerie, after either having had to dodge him or having been knocked down by him, wouldn't be able to catch up with him. Cayde would be able to keep up, if he were to chose to pursue the mayor, although whether that was wise or not was a different question.<br>
<br>
Miss Nana had jumped towards a corner of the room, holding her ears down whilst shivering. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Oh dear... oh dear... oh dear...”</b></span> The bunny woman was clearly quite panicked from what had just happened.</div>

Underneath his mask, Cayde's eyebrows raised, never had he heard of this "Creutzfeldt-Jakobs" disease. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Alright, so he has this </b></span><b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">Creutzfel-Creutful-Creuztfel - uh..." </span></b>He paused, trying to pronounce the new word in his head, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Okay, he has THAT disease." </b></span>Cayde finally spat. He shook his head, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Anyway if we need magic to cure him, Ceylan's got it covered." </b></span>He replied assuredly, motioning over to him, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"See? The mayor should be up and running any minute now." </b></span><br>
<br>
And up and running he was, but not in the way Cayde had anticipated. The mayor regained his consciousness in just seconds flat, and Cayde watched as he sent Ceylan soaring into a bookshelf. Then, not wanting to be the raging mayor's next target, Cayde lept from him, landing just a few feet away. From his position on the floor, Cayde stared as the mayor spouted maniacal nonsense and charged into the streets, leaving him in the room with Malerie and a possibly unconscious Ceylan. His lips struggled to find the words to say, but after witnessing what just happened, there was only one word that could sum it up perfectly, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"WHAT?!"</b></span><br>
<br>
Spotting Ceylan in the corner of his eye, Cayde rushed over, resting two fingers on the priest's neck. Thankfully, he felt a pulse, though it was faint. He sighed, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"He's still alive! I just think he's unconscious." </b></span>Assuming Malerie was in good condition, Cayde turned to face her, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We've got to get him back up, and then..." </b></span>his eyes trailed over to the floor, spotting a peculiar trail of foamy drool, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Then we find the mayor. We can't just let him go running around like that." </b></span><br>
<br>
Finally, Cayde turned to Miss Nana and crouched down to eye level. Although he wasn't too great at reassuring people, he desperately needed her help, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Excuse me, Miss Nana, but we're gonna need your help." </b></span>He said, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Look, the faster we get Ceylan up, the quicker we can make the mayor better again. So can you help this one time? Please?"</b></span></div>

Malerie flung herself to one side as the minotaur rushed past her. She turned to watch as he barreled down the street before her eyes went to the now unconscious cleric. She stood up, brushing herself off as she walked to him, the monster examining him with care. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Doesn't look that bad, but I''ll need to make sure he doesn't have a concussion when he wakes..."</span> She glanced to Miss Nana, saying, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Make some tea. You won't be able to help anyone if you're fretting about. Take a bit of time to calm yourself down, alright?"</span><br>
<br>
Her eyes turned back to Ceylan, the lady reaching into her coat and bringing out a foggy orb. She seemed to grimace at it's appearance, but still held it out, pressing it against the beastkin as magic flowed through her into him as she used her ability 'Heals What Ails You.' And with that usage, the focus finally turned a shade of gray, Malerie sighing and tossing it to the side. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I'll need to find someone willing or able to make a new one. I've been using it so much over the past few days... It was too much for what I had before."</span>​</div></div>

The panicked bunny woman was getting slightly less panicked once the Mayor was good and well out of the office, but she still shook her head at Cayde's request. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“I know medicine, my dear, not magic, so I can make sure he'll pull through and minimize the harm, but I can't make him get back up on his feet instantly. You'd need magic for that.”</b></span> She was more eager to take Malerie's words to heart. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Right... yes.. tea.”</b></span> She was a bit confused, but hopped off to somewhere else in the building to follow-up on Malerie's advice.<br>
<br>
Malerie's healing, especially combined her medicine knowledge, was enough to get Ceylan back into the realm of consciousness. That said, the first thing he felt was that some of his ribs were most definitely bruised and broken all over from when the mayor's horns had hit them and Malerie's healing wasn't strong enough to fix those. His head was also still painful, so he grabbed it as he tried to go through what happened. <br>
<br>

<span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That...”</b></span> he started, but stopped again. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I did not see that coming.”</b></span> Still a bit out of it, he looked around, spotting he dropped his staff when he got knocked away. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Could you hand me my staff, please?”</b></span> After he'd be given it, he was able to heal himself further. That was also when he was able to go clearly over what happened, including the fact that he'd been back 'up' much sooner than normal. He turned to Malerie. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Did you restore my consciousness? If so, you have my gratitude.”</b></span><br>
<br>
He was getting back up on his feet, although bit wobbly at first, especially once his sixth sense was kicking in again now that his senses were functioning again, making him feel like the air itself was weighing him down. Even so, he'd be able to follow the others on their chase after the mayor soon enough. Before they were ready to head out, however, miss Nana returned.<br>
<br>
The bunny woman hopped over to Malerie with a cup of tea. The hot liquid was splashing around dangerously with every hop she made, but somehow remained inside the cup. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Here you go dear.”</b></span> Apparently she'd misunderstood the advice as a request in her half-panicked state and had diligently set out to get Malerie a cup of tea.<br>
<br>
As for chasing the mayor after that; it was a challenge. Someone only had so much drool to leave as a trail, after all. Luckily enough, in combination of knowing the general direction in which he'd ran off and seeing some other tracks, such as hoof-prints in some of the unpaved or dirt-covered parts of the city, Cayde was able to stay on his tracks. <br>
<br>
Now that they were moving through the city, they also saw more of the extend at which this city was affected. There weren't many people on the streets. The few that were looked sickly, pale and tired. Red eyes, running noses, slumped over positions and slow, badly coordinated movements were more the rule than the exception. A few people looked hopeful in their direction, hoping that Malerie would be on her rounds to aid them or that the other two might be here to help them, but they'd merely sigh and try to move on once she passed them by. <br>
<br>
Ceylan was having a rough time with it. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“We've got to find the source quickly. It's difficult not to stop and try to help them.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde's tracking eventually lead them all the way to the 'bottom' of the city, where a stream of water ran from underneath it off of the cliffs and into the ocean (as in the image).  To one side of them was the city wall (the one that makes up the bottom 'terrace' for houses to be built upon), whilst to the other side, there were the cliffs that lead into the ocean. It was still a fair way down from here, potentially a deadly height even. In front of them was the stream, behind them the small path they'd taken to get here. The mayor's tracks, oddly enough, ended in front of the stream. There was no sign of the mayor himself.</div>

Cayde stood back as Malerie worked her magic, watching as she brought Ceylan back to consciousness. A relieved sigh escaped his mask, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Ah, thank goodness." </b></span>He looked over to Malerie and shared a grateful nod, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Thank you, Malerie. And now, with that out of the way..." </b></span>Cayde trailed off, his eyes finding the traces of drool, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We go look for the mayor." </b></span><br>
<br>
Although the trail lessened the further he went, Cayde was able to find some of the mayor's hoofprints. From then on, it was just as simple as following his tracks, but what wasn't easy was stomaching the sights along the way. Every time he passed by a sickly person, a pit formed in his stomach, partially from fear of catching whatever disease they laid bare and partially from pity. Of course, Cayde wanted to help them, but not knowing the fullest extent of the outbreak, paired with its possibly unnatural cause and the priorities he set straight, he just couldn't. He doubted even his potions and salves could do much to relieve them. For a moment, Cayde felt utterly useless.<br>
<br>
Soon enough, Cayde would stumble upon the end of the mayor's tracks, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"The tracks end here." </b></span>He muttered, scanning his surroundings yet seeing no trace of the mayor, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"So where is he?" </b></span>He took a few steps forwards and peeked over the edge of the stream, watching it cascade into the ocean. His eyes squinted, trying to discern anything from the rocks and seawater, but not even his perception could pick up anything. Cayde stepped back and faced his allies, concern ripe in his voice, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"You don't think he jumped off, do you? No one could take that fall." </b></span><br>
<br>
His hand rubbed at his chin, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I don't know if this will help: but back in the office, the mayor was spouting something about a 'demon' and 'having someone's head.' It was probably just crazy talk, but maybe he ran off to deal with that 'demon' himself." </b></span>He looked over to his side, spotting the city walls, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"He could still be in the city, or perhaps <i>around </i>it. But that still doesn't explain why the trail ends here..." </b></span>Cayde shrugged, diverting his gaze upstream, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Hm, maybe he went upstream instead?" </b></span></div>

Malerie giggled as she was offered the tea. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Not for me, silly, for you! Have some and take a rest. Calm yourself down. No good having the best doctor in the city pass out from stress and overwork~"</span> She reached down, using two fingers to lift the bunny lady's chin, bending down slightly as she looked into the doctor's eyes, making sure she got across the importance of what she said. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Take care of yourself. You can't help others if you aren't healthy."</span> She smiled down at the mouse lady once more before giving her a small kiss on the forehead. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"If you haven't rested when I get back, I'm gonna tuck you into bed and make sure you stay there for the rest of the day. And you know the big bad monster keeps her threats. Or, at least she does when it comes to making sure people are healthy~"</span> She stuck her tongue out in a playful way at the doctor before standing, following the others out the door with a wave back.<br>
<br>
She glanced around at the place his tracks had stopped, concern in her eyes. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I must admit, I only deal with medical issues. I'm not really good when it comes to this type of thing..."</span> She paused, thinking as she looked at the stream. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"But... We can check to see if any of the rocks are disturbed or something in the river. Or if there's a pattern of areas where they have been.

<span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Right...”</b></span> Miss Nana was still a bit confused, but she was also alerted when Malerie started lifting her face. Whilst the bunny-woman hadn't yet realised Malerie's monstrous nature, she didn't fully feel comfortable being this close to her either, despite how helpful Malerie had been. The kiss on the forehead was also met with an instinctive pull-back, as for a split second, she could imagine that beak opening up to try swallowing her whole. The playful 'threats' didn't exactly help, but Malerie's actions thus far had spoken loud enough for miss Nana to know better, despite her instinctive reactions. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“I guess.. it's indeed been a tough few days, with oh so little sleep.”</b></span><br>
<br>
There was another thing that confused miss Nana. The dog-boy was still slumped against the bookcase, asking for his staff, but he didn't get a reply from either of the other two. Eventually, she took it upon herself to pick up the staff and hop over to him. It was clear he needed it, as he wouldn't have gotten up without considerable pain with those broken ribs of his, for which only his own healing power was sufficient enough to get them cured. <br>

During their short trip, Ceylan was far more occupied by wondering what was going on in this city than by tracking, so he was glad Cayde was handling that part. When they arrived at the stream, however, he thought along with his companions. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“He was pretty... insane, but I doubt it'd be to the point of him jumping off a cliff.”</b></span> Ceylan wasn't sure what to think of the mayor's words, but he could confirm one thing; <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It's likely not an actual demon, that much I know. Dealing with an actual demon would be... far worse, to say the least.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde, however, was spot-on when he diverted his gaze upstream. In fact, he'd spot several metal handles driven into the stone, which could be used to pull yourself along them when going against the current and into what seemed to be the city's sewer system. There was only one problem. A strong guy like the mayor might be able to do it, but for them, it would be a serious struggle. They'd have to get into waist-deep, fast-flowing water whilst being dragged along with it would flush them off a cliff and into a fall they weren't likely to survive. Whilst it was difficult to see any rocks that were disturbed, if one of them were to get close to the handles Cayde spotted, they would see those had indeed been disturbed, as parts of the layers of rust on them looked like they'd recently been rubbed off, such as by someone using them. It was very likely the mayor had gone into there, but it might not be the best idea to follow him...</div>

After the group finished chatting, Cayde decided to investigate upstream, finding more clues on the mayor's whereabouts. On his way, he spotted several rusty handles leading farther into the city's sewers. Though he would've paid them no mind, he did notice something off: some of them appeared to be recently used. Cayde didn't see anyone else go in beforehand, and considering the mayor's tracks ended just downstream of the sewers, he had to be in there. However, Cayde hesitated on entering. While the mayor could've easily pulled himself against the current, Cayde doubted he had the strength to follow. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Now we just need another way in..."</b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde turned around and approached his companions, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Ceylan, Malerie. I think I know where the mayor went." </b></span>He said, pointing up towards the sewer's mouth, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I checked up there and saw some handles leading into the sewer, and from what I could tell, someone used them recently." </b></span>Cayde nodded, his hand rubbing his chin, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"That's why the tracks ended so abruptly - he didn't jump off, he just ran off into the sewers!"</b></span> Though this finding was a significant step, there was still one more issue he had to address, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"There's still one more problem though: the mayor went <i>against</i> the current, and no offense but, uh..." </b></span>Cayde paused, trying to find the most polite words to say, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I don't think any of us are capable of that."</b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde tried to think of a solution, but without knowledge of the city, nothing came up. However, as he looked at Malerie, he got an idea, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Hey, Malerie. You've been in this city longer than us, yeah? So have you seen any sewer grates, openings, or any sort around here?" </b></span>From his time in Ryken, Cayde knew very well that city sewers always had other entrances; this city had to be no different, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"If we find one, we can hop in, follow the stream up the sewers, and then catch the mayor." </b></span></div>

The monster frowned, looking at the sewer entrance with no small bit of disgust, with her mind wandering to the mayor. If whatever had happened to this town had made the people immunocompromised, some place like that would be the last place she would want one of her patients to go to. However, with the group seeming to be healthy, she decided that there would be no point in not going in.<br>
<br>
She perked up at the question she was asked, her face swiveling from the man in the plague doctor's mask back to the town. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"There are manholes everywhere in the city. The mayor would have been too small to fit in any, but I think we all can. Though, do you want to enter further into the city so we can go either way without fighting the tide still, or enter the closest one?"</span> Her eyes turned to the other two quizzically, waiting on their thoughts on the matter.​</div></div>

Ceylan felt a shiver run down his spine when Cayde told them of his findings. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That... does not look pleasant.”</b></span> The fact that it was a sewer was one thing, but jumping into a stream and risk getting dragged off of a deadly cliff by the water was a next level of a bad idea. It's why he immediately agreed with Cayde. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It would be suicidal.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
Luckily enough, Malerie knew where to find an alternative entrance. As for her question, Ceylan debated it for a moment. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I doubt the entire sewer system is without proper walkways, so I don't think we'd have to fight the currents if we enter it somewhere near this place. It might also help us track the mayor if we enter the sewers as close to him as possible.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Assuming Cayde and Malarie were to agree, they'd be able to make their way to the nearest manhole cover. It was situated on the level above them, so they had to make a slight detour to get up (as they wouldn't be able to just  climb the wall), but they'd find it without too much trouble. <br>
<br>
That said, once they were there, they'd realise a few things short after removing the manhole cover and staring down. The good thing was that it'd been raining a fair bit lately. The water was now slowly coming down the cliffs above, gathering into the sewer system where it got together in bigger volume and where its currents picked up due to being channelled through the smaller streams. As a result, the sewer wasn't as badly smelling as it might be during other days. <br>
<br>
The bad thing was that this also meant that the walkways were partly flooded. The flooded part was neither deep nor flowing strongly enough to really hinder them, but it'd probably prevent any tracks the mayor might have otherwise left on the walkways. It also meant they'd need to carefully watch their footing as to not accidentally step besides the small walkway that covered the deeper parts of the sewer channel. <br>
<br>
The final thing they'd notice was that the sewers were pretty dark. How the mayor was dealing with it was a mysteries, but they'd need a source of light, especially if they didn't wish to risk stepping besides the partially flooded walkways. As for the latter, Ceylan spoke up. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I've brought some candles for ceremonies, but they won't give off a whole lot of light. We'd have to stick close or find a better source of light.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Regardless of what option they'd chose, one thing was clear about Ceylan. He wasn't eager to go first, as for all his lack of social ability, he was making it pretty clear that he was really hoping one of the other two would volunteer themselves climbing down first.</div>

After the group removed the manhole cover, Cayde stepped forward and peered inside. Undoubtedly, the sewers were dark, but with the aid of Ceylan's candles, it hopefully wouldn't be much of an issue. Still, Cayde had to figure out who would go down first. He looked at Malerie and Ceylan, his eyes darting between them and the opening, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"So, who's gonna...?" </b></span>Cayde waited for a couple of seconds until he realized what he had to do, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Oh... Well, I'll go on first then." </b></span>Then, with a short grunt, he got down and slowly descended the manhole.<br>
<br>
Soon enough, Cayde would find himself standing on the sewer's wet walkways. Though he'd never been in one himself, the sewer smelled oddly fresh - or at least, as fresh as a sewer could be. Cayde thought it must've been recently flushed out, and as he looked around to survey the scene, it seemed he was partly correct. Behind him, he could faintly see a section of the walkway flooded with water, not enough to cause concern, but just enough to cause a slip if he wasn't careful enough. Cayde sighed; not only had he and his companions had to find the mayor in a dark sewer, but they also had to find him in a <i>flooded</i> dark sewer. <br>
<br>
Otherwise, the landing looked fine, and Cayde looked up towards to manhole, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"It's dark, but I think we're all clear here." </b></span>He called out, his voice reverberating against the walls, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"The floor's a bit slippery, and I'm sure some parts might be flooded. But if we find the main channel, we can continue the search."</b></span></div>

The monster watched him go down. At what he said, she shuddered, not liking the trip she would have to make, but she steeled herself up and got on the ladder, sliding down before splashing into the water below. She shuddered as her stockings were completely soaked, knowing that she would have to wash them as soon as she got out of this place, as well as all the rest of her clothes and her body. Probably multiple times. She didn't want to take any chances.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Mayor, why couldn't you have run off to somewhere more... sanitary?"</span> She knew the mayor couldn't hear her, but she needed to get the question out of her head. She slowly sloshed through the water, moving to the side so the ladder was open as she peered down the tunnel, trying to catch a glimpse of where the minotaur could have run off to.​</div></div>

Ceylan didn't speak it aloud, but he was surely thinking 'thank you for your sacrifice' when Cayde went down first. Upon Cayde's signal, Ceylan climbed down as well. It was indeed dark, so with the light coming down from the manhole, Ceylan took out three candles and lit them, handing one to Cayde and Malerie as well. With how little light the candles gave off, they'd need their own ones.<br>
<br>
A shiver went through his spine and all the way up to the tip of his tail when he felt the cold water run along his feet and shins, instantly soaking them both. He didn't exactly have shoes for this occasions, after all. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“This was definitely not a part of the city I was hoping to visit either.”</b></span> Ceylan replied in response to Malerie's remark. Then, after looking around for a bit, he continued on a more serious tone. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I think... the sewer pipe we saw leading outside should be in that direction?”</b></span> Ceylan pointed to their left.<br>

The path through the sewers was relatively 'simple' for as long as they made sure not to accidentally step into the middle part, which was where the water would usually flow through if it wasn't for the fact that the side-walks were now also flooded. However, finding the mayor was a much bigger challenge. Ceylan's direction was most likely correct, but upon having went in it, they'd soon realise there were very few signs of anyone having gone through here. There was something, however, that Ceylan was still bothered by. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It must be pitch black in these parts without a source of light, how in the world did the mayor find his way through here?”</b></span><br>
<br>
Upon looking around, Cayde, with his slightly higher perception and survival knowledge, was likely to be the first to spot it. Some of the moss on the walls was wiped off recently. The mayor had likely made his way through by dragging one of his hands across the walls to make sure he'd stuck close enough to them. The latter had definitely left its marks. A bit of moss rubbed away where, some dirt rubbed off there... It wasn't a lot, but with only a few tunnels making up this entire sewer, it'd be enough to track down the mayor.<br>
<br>
However, not too far into doing so, they'd get a clear signal that they were heading in the right direction. <span style="color: #800000"><b>“BEGONE YOU DEMON!!!”</b></span> The mayor's voice boomed through the sewers, echoing past them thanks to its surprising volume. He couldn't be too far off, perhaps just around a corner or two... A second voice could be heard. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Sir … calm … please!”</b></span> Not all words could be made out, as he was a lot less loud than the mayor, but it was clearly a 'he' and likely on the older side. <br>
<br>
Ceylan was anxiously holding his candle, having no clue how to approach the situation. All he knew was one thing; <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I should be able to cure him if I can touch him and say a prayer, but I'm not sure if he'd let me close for long enough in his condition.”</b></span></div>

As the group progressed forward, Cayde began to look for more tracks. His eyes scanned the walls and the floors for any abnormality, but the dim candlelight did him no justice. As he continued his search, Cayde heard Ceylan speak out behind him. Not wanting to miss any clues, Cayde didn't turn to face him, but he would still try to answer Ceylan's question. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I'd say he's been in here before; I doubt he just wandered in here." </b></span>He said, squinting at the walls as he continued,<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b> "I don't know what was going through his head, but why'd he pick this place specifically?. There has to be <i>something in</i> here. I just know it." </b></span><br>
<br>
As soon as he finished, Cayde would finally spot something peculiar. Beside him was a wall covered in ordinary green moss, but on closer inspection, Cayde saw long horizontal markings etched into it - almost as if something was dragged against it. Curious, Cayde placed his hand on the wall and slowly moved forwards, dragging it along. Then, after a few steps, he looked back to the wall, comparing the two patterns. Interestingly, they were almost identical, though the markings he found were way larger. Only one person could've made those prints: the mayor.<br>
<br>
Reassured from finding some new tracks, Cayde gave a low chuckle, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Finally..." </b></span>He turned to Ceylan and Malerie and pointed over to the wall, showing them the strange patterns in the moss, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Check the wall. The mayor left some more tracks for us." </b></span>He began to follow the marking, all while wiping the moss off his hands, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I'm going to take a guess and say these were made pretty recently. So, he should be around-" </b></span>Before he could finish his sentence, a familiar voice boomed through the sewers, making Cayde jump in response. He cleared his throat and adjusted his mask, trying to seem as if the sudden noise hadn't frightened him, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Uh, there he is." </b></span><br>
<br>
Interestingly enough, Cayde heard another voice follow, likely speaking to the mayor. He turned to face Ceylan, who was planning their approach, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Right. So we'll need to find a way to distract him, or at least get him to stop moving for a bit." </b></span>He scratched at his chin, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"I heard another person in here, so maybe the mayor's distracted. We should sneak up and get a better look." </span></b></div>

Malerie thought about the first question both of them posed for a few moments, which helped take her mind off the liquid they were wading through. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Maybe it's something instinctual? Like, the mayor was able to sense where the magic was coming from, but could only follow the trail when lowered to base instincts?"</span> She shrugged. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Or maybe it's something else.

<br>
She was quickly cut off by a loud bellowing down the tunnel, and a man's voice to accompany. Her brows furrowed as she started to do her best to run down the hall, knowing that they were near the end of their journey and hoping that would also mean getting out of the sewers. She turned her head and called back in a lower voice, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Considering how loud those yells are, I highly doubt he'll be able to hear us coming. Come on. Sounds like he's trying to kill someone."</span>​</div></div>

As the group hurried towards the source of the sound, at least for as far as they could do so silently enough to avoid being noticed, they would find a place where the sewer opened up a bit more. It was difficult to estimate under which part of the city they were by now, but it was likely somewhere near or at the centre. A dim light shone through the ceiling as well, as there seemed to be a small iron raster. <br>

The mayor's large form could be spotted almost immediately. He was standing near the back of the room, hulking over a much smaller figure. He looked ready to attack, but was abstaining from doing so for an unclear reason.<br>

The figure behind him was an older looking beast, of the hare variety, who was slumped down on the ground whilst clutching his chest with both hands. A poleaxe lay besides him in the shallow water. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“That's it sir, please snap out of it...”</b></span> He spoke through heavy breathing. Malerie would almost instantly hear that this breathing was that of someone who had gotten some serious issues with their lungs, possibly a form of pneumonia. If he'd be focussing upon it, Cayde would reach the same conclusion a bit later.<br>
<br>
The distance between them and the mayor, in the open part of the room, could be crossed in a quick sprint, but not before the mayor would be able to hear them and turn around. The water had flooded parts of this room as well, but the elevation was generally higher and the middle part of it was mostly dry. <br>

As Ceylan observed the situation along with the others, he suppressed an urge to groan when he felt something wet, warm and slimy brush past his leg. He didn't want to know what type of stuff that could've been, not when they were in a sewer. Instead, he tried to focus on the more urgent situation ahead of him, but he could only think of one thing. He whispered to share it. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“He already got me once, but I'd be willing to try sprinting or sneaking up to him again if you two could just distract him for a little. It seems like he's a little more talkative, or aware, perhaps?”</b></span></div>

Soon enough, Cayde spotted the mayor further down in the sewers. Although it was tough to see past the mayor's hulking figure, Cayde could vaguely distinguish someone lying on the floor, likely the other voice he had heard earlier. It seemed like they were speaking to the mayor, and curiously, he appeared to be listening. Cayde saw that as a good sign; maybe now he could actually speak to him, or better yet, grab his attention. Still, he had to be careful. The mayor was still unpredictable in his current state, and sprinting in would only startle him, potentially leading to another uncomfortable situation.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"If we need a distraction, I might have something in mind," </b></span>Cayde whispered, taking another look at the scene ahead, this time focusing on the person lying on the floor. He could hear them breathing, but their breath sounded labored - as if something was wrong with their lungs. Their illness didn't instantly click into his head, but Cayde knew one thing, they needed immediate attention. Fortunately, that'd play into his plan too. He nodded to himself and turned to Malerie, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Alright, Malerie, you and I are going to head up there and try to take care of that person - or at least, <i>look</i> like we're trying to take care of them. We'll try to talk to them and the mayor, see if we can grab his attention." </b></span>Cayde lifted his palms and walked his fingers across them, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We'll have to move slow, but we gotta make sure the mayor sees us both. We can't risk startling him."</b></span><br>
<br>
Finally, Cayde's eyes locked onto the mayor, an anxious sigh escaping his mask. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Alright, here goes." </b></span>He then approached the room, stopping just at the edge of darkness. He swallowed the lump in his throat and began to speak, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"E-excuse me? Mr. Mayor?" </b></span>Cayde said meekly as he slowly stepped into the light. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We heard someone in the sewers, so we came to check it out and-" </b></span>Cayde cut himself off and looked towards the person on the floor, recognizing them as a hare beastkin. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Oh! Pardon me..." </b></span>Cayde murmured as he slowly shuffled past the mayor, though still making sure to face him. Eventually, Cayde was next to the hare, kneeling next to them.<br>
<br>
Now that he was up close, Cayde could finally start working on a diagnosis. As he scanned the hare for symptoms, he could confirm that something was affecting their lungs. Judging from how they were clutching their chest and their heavy breathing, it was likely pneumonia. However, Cayde was still a bit unsure, but that's where Malerie would come in.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Chest pain, heavy breathing, maybe it's... pneumonia?" </b></span>Cayde said, slightly shaking his head, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Apologies, sir, I'm still a bit new to this. Miss Malerie'll know some more." </b></span>Then, Cayde turned his head back to where he came, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Um, Miss Malerie? You, uh, wanna come and check this out?" </b></span>He called out, signaling Malerie's turn to enter. Cayde's heart started thumping; he was really hoping for this 'starry-eyed apprentice' approach to work.</div>

Ceylan listened attentively to Cayde's plan. He trusted his companion's judgement on this. However, as he was taking in what Cayde and Malerie were going to do, he suddenly heard Cayde say 'Alright, here goes' and leave off with Malerie. Ceylan clenched his teeth. Cayde hadn't told him what he expected of him yet. Was he supposed to wait a bit for them to have the mayor's full attention or was he supposed to start sneaking as soon as possible? Or was he meant to make a sprint for it the moment the mayor had his eyes on Cayde and Malerie? His studies of religious texts and ceremonies weren't exactly helping him here...<br>

The mayor instantly turned around when Cayde started walking towards him, but he turned his full attention to Malerie the moment she started to rush over. It was causing quite some water to splash up before she'd got to the dryer and shallower parts, which was sure to get the mayor's attention, for better or worse. They'd see his eyes were even more blood-shot red than they'd been before and he was foaming from the mouth. However, he didn't attack... not yet, at least. He was also shivering a bit, which didn't seem to be from the cold. He was clearly becoming very unstable. He didn't respond to Cayde's words, but the words did seem to prevent him from attacking them. Perhaps Cayde was just persuasive enough to influence the mayor even in his current state. For now, at least.<br>

<span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Oh..”</b></span> A heavy breath. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Thank heavens, you're here...”</b></span> Another heavy, painful sounding breath. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Please, the mayor .. he's gone mad!”</b></span> It was clear the hare was battling both his disease and panic to keep talking, which sounded painful enough to be felt by others simply by listening to his struggle. He weakly lifted his hand to grab the bottle and bring it to his lips, but before he could take a sip...<br>
<br>
<span style="color: #800000"><b>“DON'T YOU DARE POISON MY PEOPLE, YOU DEMONS!!!”</b></span> The mayor snapped. Perhaps it was their oddly shaped beaks looking suspicious to him or perhaps it was merely the disease, but the act of them feeding something to the hare was clearly not something he took kindly too. In fact, he rushed forwards towards Malerie and managed to grab her by the neck in a surprisingly quick movement. His physique was a few times greater than that of Malerie, as she could feel his hand close around her neck and start to choke her before she could good and well react to it. The mayor was keeping a side eye on Cayde and looked ready to use his other arm to swing at him the moment he'd get close...<br>
<br>
However, this meant that he had his other side exposed. Ceylan, who'd been wondering when to act, suddenly had his moment handed to him, as he pretty much had to act now. Right now. As such, he did, trying to hurry as fast as he could without getting noticed by splashing around and somehow managing to get within the mayor's range. The fact that the mayor's mind was already half gone and divided between Malerie and Cayde gave him enough leeway to get to the mayor. However, as he laid his hands upon the mayor, the latter instantly turned towards him in an attempt to smack him away... It would be up to Malerie and Cayde to somehow buy him the precious few seconds he'd need to heal the mayor, as he wouldn't be able to do so if he'd get smacked away. It also looked like Malerie might pass out if they wouldn't  get it right on the first try, as she was currently being chocked badly enough not to be able to take in any new air. <br>
<br>
The hare was trying his best to get up and help them, but he was wobbling on his legs so heavily that they wouldn't be able to expect much from him. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Stop... sir... please...”</b></span> He didn't get through to the mayor at all.</div>

Cayde thought the plan was going swimmingly, but as the mayor grabbed Malerie, he couldn't be even more wrong. He tried to reach out for her, but at that moment, Cayde saw Ceylan rush towards the mayor, taking advantage of the botched situation. He almost cracked a smile as he watched Ceylan make it to the mayor, but as the latter tried to swat him away, Cayde felt his stomach drop. Panic quickly started to settle in, and his mind raced with all sorts of muddled thoughts, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"<i>Come on, Cayde. Think! THINK!" </i></span></b>His consciousness screamed, trying to piece together something - anything to get him out of this situation.<br>
<br>
Then, Cayde had another idea. There was no chance he'd get through the mayor by stating his or Ceylan's intentions for the city, especially in the bull's current state, but maybe he could tap into something deeper. Cayde remembered seeing the mayor tower over the hare, and though he could've easily crushed the smaller beastkin right there, he hesitated - but why? Though his illness was surely destroying his judgment, maybe there was still just a sliver of the mayor's psyche left, a sliver that still valued the lives of his people. If Cayde could appeal to that ever-shrinking piece of the mayor's mind, he could buy <i>just</i> a little bit more time. He doubted if it'd ease the mayor enough for Ceylan's blessings, but with what little time he had, it was now or never.<br>
<br>
 Trying to prepare himself mentally, Cayde took a few shaky breaths, but eventually, he was ready. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"H-Hey! Mayor!" </b></span>His voice shook with pleading and a hint of demand, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Look, I haven't been in this city for long, but I've seen enough to know what this outbreak has done. People are sick, everyone's miserable, and there's barely enough help to go around." </b></span>He paused for a bit before pointing towards Malerie, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"But that woman in your arms? Malerie? She's been here, day after day, pushing herself to see the welfare of your people. This outbreak is unlike any I've ever heard, yet despite all that, she persists." </b></span>Cayde gestured to the room they were in, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I mean, she wandered into the sewers, wading through these knee-high waters, just because she wanted to help someone in need. Tell me, does that sound like a demon bent on destruction?" </b></span><br>
<br>
As he finished that little section of his speech, Cayde's breathing started to pick up. He hoped it'd be enough for the mayor to let go of Malerie or at least let some tension off her. However, he still had some more words to say, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"And y-yeah, I don't really know you, and I guess you don't really know me - but from what I've seen, this <i>isn't you. </i>Miss Nana, this man here, your people, they're all so concerned about you! They care; they don't wanna see you like this! It-It scares them!" </b></span>Cayde cried out, his breath quickening even faster, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I dunno what you're going through, hell, I don't know if you can even hear me, but you can't let his disease take over you! I know it's hard but think of your people. Do it for them, do it for your city!"  </b></span></div>

Malerie yelped as she was lifted up, her feet dangling above the ground. Her eyes went from her friends to the minotar, her own hands going up to try and loosen the grip around her throat. She took in wheezing breaths as she did her best to try and stay calm, try and force down the other person. Her eyes closed, her head shaking as she forced the other one down, her eyes opening and looking back into the mayor's face.​</div></div>

The fact that Malerie managed to stay calm worked to her advantage, as while the grip on her neck from the mayor's hand didn't loosen, it didn't tighten either. Something in him was clearly just about 'clear' enough for him to hold back a little, if ever so slightly. <br>
<br>
Most of Cayde's words didn't seem to be coming through to the mayor, but his voice itself did. At a few particular words, such as 'sick' and 'people' as well as 'help' he showed a bit of responsiveness, although he didn't reply. At the mention of 'demon' his nostrils flared up and Malerie could feel his grip on her throat tighten for a second. Luckily enough, this loosened again when Cayde continued and mentioned Nana, as the mayor he actually loosened his grip enough to allow Malerie to breath again. It didn't look like he'd fully let go of her, however, as his mind was clearly struggling to use the last bits of reason it had left in it.<br>

Thanks to Cayde's distraction, Ceylan had managed to avoid getting hit, but he hadn't gotten close to the mayor. That said, Cayde kept distracting the mayor, so Ceylan knew he'd have to try again. He wasn't sure if it'd work, but he decided to set aside his dignity and got on all fours, crawling across the sewer-floor in an attempt to be as small and unnoticeable as possible. In fact, upon being close enough, he lied down flat on his stomach  and stretched out to reach for the mayor as unnoticeably as possible. In the mayor's current state, it might just work, as the mayor kept his attention on Cayde and Malerie, allowing Ceylan to get within arm's reach.<br>
<br>
That's when the scariest part was going to happen. If Ceylan would screw up here, it'd be easy for the mayor to stomp his hoof down on Ceylans head and knock him out instantly. Ceylan was furiously praying for Cayde to keep talking, Malerie to keep calm and above all, for himself to gather the courage to reach forwards and touch the mayor's ankle, just above the hoof. <br>
<br>
Normally, he used to hover his hand above someone's head when saying his healing prayer. Touching someone's ankle was an odd, but somewhat functional, alternative. He whispered his [Healing Prayer], not daring to say it aloud. The gods would forgive him for it, of that he was sure. Slowly but steadily, the mayor calmed down, especially once Cayde also mentioned miss Nana. <br>
<br>
The grab on Malerie's throat loosened enough for her to free herself. Then, all of a sudden, the mayor fell down. Ceylan barely managed to roll away and avoid being flattened by the large minotaur tumbling down. After getting over the initial shock, Ceylan quickly checked the mayor, relieved to see his efforts had paid off. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“He's alright! He's just asleep. He must've been exhausted...”</b></span> Ceylan gave them a very, very deep sigh. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That was terrifying... are you okay, Malerie?”</b></span><br>

<span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“You guys … actually … did it … I'll drink … to that.”</b></span> The hare's sentences were filled with pained gasps for air, but a certain happiness still managed to ring through, as he opened up the brandy Malerie had given him and downed it like a professional. <br>
<br>
Ceylan looked upon him, then to Malerie. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I don't think I'm able to help him at the moment, not after such a task... If I lend you my staff to serve as a focus, do you think you could take care of him?”</b></span> If Malerie were to accept task, she would be able to considerably increase the hare's condition. Whilst she wasn't able to fully heal him, her combined healing and medicine skill would manage to get him to breath normally again and get back upon his feet, after which he'd introduce himself. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Thanks. I owe you guys my life. Me and the mayor both. Oh, I'm Harley, by the way. I used to work for the guard and retired, but the current situation had me return to active duty.”</b></span><br>
<br>
<br>
Ceylan, whist having quite a few questions and knowing that the others would likely also have them, felt horrible as he was covered in sewer-floor substances and had sewer-soggy feet. The fresh rain had only made it slightly less terrible than it could've been. He was very eager for all of them to get out of these sewers. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Harley, do you know how we can get the mayor out of here?”</b></span><br>
<br>
The hare looked over to the stairs in the back of the room. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“The stairs over there lead to the outside. It's one of the few places the mayor can fit through, but they are barricaded from the inside, so we've got to clear them up first.”</b></span><br>
<br>
If they were to climb the stairs, they could confirm Harley's words. Planks, bolts and beams were used in a haphazard way to make it impossible to open the door from the outside, but it'd be fairly easy to clean it all up form the inside. If they all worked together, it wouldn't take too long to do so. They would also need to work together if they wished to bring up the mayor. However, if all three of them were to give it their all, they'd be able to drag up the mayor in a sloppy but functional fashion. The exit would lead into a small maintenance room, which in turn would lead out on the streets, surprisingly close to the mayor's office, where they'd be able to put the large minotaur on a couch until he'd wake up. <br>
<br>
Ceylan grabbed the first opportunity to grab a bucket of water and a towel and some of the grossest stuff on him cleaned up, before returning to the others to figure out what their next step would be, although it would likely start by questioning Harley, who seemed to expect as much.</div>

The whole conundrum in the sewers had left Cayde weary. Though dragging the mayor's lifeless body to his office was one reason, it was Cayde's thoughts of what had transpired that had exhausted him the most. Even after managing to subdue the mayor, his head was still running with all sorts of what-ifs and if-onlys. He tried focusing on the now, but after everything he saw and everything he put Ceylan and Malerie through, Cayde could only feel remorse. Beneath his mask, he gritted his teeth in self-loathing. He needed to improve, and if not for himself, for his allies.<br>
<br>
Needing a distraction from his own thoughts, Cayde decided to pace around the mayor's office. Along the way, his eyes wandered to the shelves of assorted books, the very desk where the mayor raised from, and finally, to the mayor himself, who was lying unconsciously on a couch over to the side. For a moment, Cayde stopped and stared at him, the thought of the mayor's rampage still fresh in his mind. Yet, as vivid as that experience was, Cayde still didn't understand why the mayor acted so violently. He thought he knew the symptoms of Mad Cow Disease, and for the life of him, he couldn't remember psychosis as being one of them - or was it? If he knew of the disease in the first place, he must've read about it and written it down somewhere, and where else could he have put it down than his trusty journal.<br>
<br>
After fishing through his backpack, Cayde finally found his journal, and after skimming past a few pages, he finally found Mad Cow Disease. Much to his dismay, he hadn't written many notes on the disease, but what did stand out were a couple of lines describing its prognosis. Apparently, the disease was slow to progress, usually taking a few years for symptoms to show. Once symptoms appeared, they gradually became worse until the victim perished, spanning from a few weeks to a couple of months. After reading that line, Cayde squinted in skepticism. He remembered hearing Miss Nana say the mayor was completely fine just two days - he couldn't have almost lost his mind in that time, not naturally, at least.<br>
<br>
After a brief moment of thought, Cayde walked over to Ceylan and Malerie, ready to discuss his findings. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"So... everyone holding up okay?" </b></span>He asked, an awkward pause shortly following. Finally, he cleared his throat and continued, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Alright, so I have a feeling this whole outbreak isn't completely natural.

<br>
With that, Cayde made his way over to Harley, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Hey Mr.Harley, feelin' any better?" </b></span>Under his mask, he smiled, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"So, Can you tell me when everyone started getting sick, yourself included? And before that, can you tell me how the city was doing? Was everything going well?"</b></span></div>

The nevermore slowly stood up, brushing herself off before having a coughing fit into her own hand. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I must admit, getting choked by a minotaur is not the most pleasant experience."</span> She let out a few more coughs before taking a deep breath, steadying herself. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"But... I think I'm fine. No broken bones, and my windpipe isn't crushed. Considering the alternatives... I think that went well."</span><br>
<br>
She took the offered staff, looking it over before looking at the mayor. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I think I can. I know how mad cow disease functions, so with some magic mixed in I think I should be able to handle this."</span> She knelt down, the staff resting on the minotaur's head as Malerie started to force the sickness out, her knowledge of it assisting in the healing as she was able to combat specifics with [Heal What Ails You].<br>
<br>
When she had finished, she leaned back, her breathing a bit more heavy, but the doctor looking less haggard than the priest. Her eyes went to the bunny. She walked over, starting up another healing, this time less invasive, as she still needed to gain back her strength, but enough to at least get rid of a lot of the issues that he was dealing with. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Keep drinking the brandy. That'll help too. I can't give you the full treatment so soon after the mayor, but I can at least help some. The brandy will be able to help you as well until I can give you the full package."</span><br>
<br>
Once she finished, she handed the priest his staff back. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"It is unnatural. You probably wouldn't know this, only being around for less than a day, but my focus got ruined like that because I used it on basically every person in this city over the last week or so. And yet whenever I would heal them, they would turn around and suddenly be stricken with another illness. It's like they all became immunodeficient and they were put in a place where every conceivable illness existed."</span>​</div></div>

Ceylan had shown clear relief upon hearing that Malerie was alright, as well as when he realised their combined healing powers managed to stabilize both Harley and the mayor. With some rest, both of them would make it, which was a lot considering the situation they found them in. On the topic of rest, Ceylan felt like having it. He was exhausted. Although he'd washed up a bit, he really started to wish for a bath and a good night's rest. <br>
<br>
Were Ceylan to have been able to see Cayde's worry, he'd have said some things to cheer him up. However, Cayde's mask hid any emotion from sight, so Ceylan had no clue as to what was going on with his companion. It's only when he spotted Cayde's nervous pacing around that Ceylan figured something might be up. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm not sure what you're thinking, but you did good there. You managed to keep the mayor calm for long enough to have all of us make it out alive.”</b></span><br>
<br>
As for what Malerie and Cayde told him, Ceylan could only nod. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm tired, but I'm alright. That said, you're right. I feared this was unnatural when the weight of this city nearly made me faint the moment I entered it. If you two reached the same conclusion, it's safe to take it as a fact. There's some sort of magic or curse cast upon this place.”</b></span> As they reached this conclusion, they would see <span style="color: blue">the sun was starting to set</span>, as it was going to be evening soon. With nobody around to light the street lights (which were encased oil lanterns), the city was likely going to be very dark during the night. <br>

When Cayde walked up to Harley, he'd instantly spot two things. There was an empty brandy bottle besides the hare and he was pretty intoxicated. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Aye, I'm great! Couldn't be better!”</b></span> He spoke with a bit of a heavy tongue. He'd clearly taken Malerie's advise to keep drinking to heart. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Tssss been slowly, you know? First a few sick... then a whole lot. I'm not so sure when the first wasss. I think a month ago? Maybe more... didn't know it wasss something worse then, you know? Anyhow... The mayor, he said... it wasss something from someone, like... someone did thisss, you know? Like, a bad guy.”</b></span> He then offered Cayde the bottle, only to notice it was already empty. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Oh, sorry 'bout that... tsss empty... perhaps the bird girl hass more... tsss good stuff...”</b></span><br>
<br>
It took him a bit to get back on track. The fact that he even did so in his intoxicated state only attested to his sense of duty... sort-off. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Mayor said, 't must be someone doing something in hiding somewhere... said it couldn't be the housesss, cause they have people in them, you know...? Said it might be the sssewers... those go unchecked, you know? Sssso, we wanted to investigate... turned out they were barricaded from the insside, so we thought... thought we found it, you know? The mayor got more sick though, sssso I went to check through the manhole covers... you know? Mayor's way too big for those, you know? Sooo I went through them, you know... Tsss been nasty work, you know.. I got through all the sewers... finding nothing but sewer stuff, you know... wasss about to get rid of the barricade, next thing I knew, started coughing my lungs out and could barely walk from the pain... been there, like, a day? Maybe? Not ssuure... time passess slow when stuck in a sewer, you know? Next thing you know, mayor showssss up, thinks I'm the bad guy! Never been more scared in my life, you know?”</b></span> As he said the latter, he started to lie down on the floorboards... <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Sorry... I'mma sleep now... tsss good wood here... soft and warm...”</b></span> It didn't take the hare long to drift off. His intoxication probably helped him calm down, in its own alcoholic way.<br>
<br>

Ceylan had been listening to Cayde and Harley, but his mind was elsewhere. He'd been worrying about a few things, but with what Harley said, things started to fall into place. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“The church here has crypts underneath them. Considering I'm from the Syncretist Church, I'd have access to them. It'd take some convincing to get you two along, but it might work out.”</b></span> He said, out of the blue, assuming the other two would make the connection based on what Harley had told them. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“We'd have to go there in the morning, but...”</b></span> He clearly looked conflicted, struggling to figure out whether to tell them what was on his mind or not. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“We should rest first, but...” </b></span> <br>
<br>
Eventually, he sighed deeply. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm afraid to sleep.”</b></span> He'd finally gotten it off of his chest. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm getting more in tune with my ability to pick up on malicious magic and curses, but that also means it weighs heavier, especially here. I've never tried sleeping in a place so heavy and I'm honestly not sure what will happen. Even if I set up all the rituals to ward off evil that I've ever learned, I fear it'd still not be enough... is it weak of me to be scared of something like that?”</b></span></div>

Cayde didn't expect Harley's drunken slurring, but in the end, he got all the information he needed. Still, his eyebrows quirked when he saw the hare lie on the floor, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Thanks, Harley, I'll uh, leave you to it." </span></b>With that, he left Harley and regrouped with Ceylan and Malerie, now understanding what was happening. It turns out there w<i>as</i> someone behind all of this, and all they had to do next was find them and put a stop to their plans. It sounded easy in Cayde's head, but if this person managed to afflict an entire city, there was no telling what they could do to him. For a moment, Cayde shuddered, hoping the coming confrontation wouldn't be anything like the last.<br>
<br>
Fortunately, it wouldn't take too long for Cayde to receive his next lead, as Ceylan opted to check the church's crypts. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Hmm, if I wanted to keep my magic secret..." </span></b>He trailed off, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"then yeah, I'd probably head into a crypt! Good thinking, Ceylan." </span></b>He looked outside, noticing the sunlight slowly fade, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Maybe the mayor will be up tomorrow morning. Then we can ask him some questions, get a better description of our culprit here." </b></span><br>
<br>
As for Ceylan's confession, Cayde would touch upon that too. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Of course not! Look, Ceylan, to be honest, I'm kinda freaked out too..." </span></b>He murmured, lowering his gaze to the floor, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I was already a bit nervous from the start, and now that we know what's causing this... yeah, I'm still a bit on edge." </b></span>He let out a warm chuckle and raised one finger, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"But, you know what's holding me together? You guys." </b></span>He looked towards Ceylan, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Ceylan, we've been through so much: from that time in the woods with that gnoll to wading through the city sewers - we pulled through, and we'll pull through this too." </b></span>A bright smile started to form under his mask, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We're not the same people we were back in those woods, Ceylan. We've improved - you especially. So don't doubt yourself for a second, friend." </b></span></div>

Malerie went to the bunny, moving him somewhere more comfortable and lying him down on his side, checking him over once more before doing some final medicinal healing. As she did, she talked to the others, trying to console them and calm them. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"It isn't wrong to be scared. But I would still try to get a full night's sleep. It's important, or else you might have even more mental anguish when the morning comes. I know it's difficult, but rest is the best thing for you."</span> <br>
<br>
After she finished with the bunny, she slowly stood up, walking over to Ceylan before sitting down right in front of the dog boy, her eyes searching his face to help figure out what might be the best treatment for him. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"You know, if you want, I could help with your sleep. I can't do much about your subconscious, or nightmares that might happen, but I know I can at least help you to rest."</span>​</div></div>

Harley was already asleep by the time Malerie checked up on him. He'd probably be fine come morning, other than likely having a nasty hangover. Being moved would at the very least make sure that his awakening didn't also include aching muscles from sleeping on a hardwood floor. <br>

Ceylan was relieved to hear his ally speaking supportive words. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Thanks, Cayde, I'm glad to have you with me.”</b></span> His reply was simple, but it was as honest as it could get. That said, he was also honest when he took up Malerie's offer. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“If you have something that might work, I'd gladly try it.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The next obstacle in the way of a night's rest was finding a place to sleep. The office they were in, despite being fairly sparsely decorated overall, turned out to have a few other rooms with large enough couches to sleep on. It'd be a lot better than a bedroll or floorboards, that much was sure. <br>
<br>
Whether or not the stressful day and worrying future were enough to keep Cayde and Malerie from having a good night's rest was up to fate, but for Ceylan, it wasn't just fate that was bothering him. As he feared, his sixth sense didn't stop whilst he was sleeping. If anything, it worked its influences far stronger on him. He'd barely been asleep for half an hour when the first nightmare hit him, finding himself in the body of an elderly badger-like beast who's body was covered in itching wounds. The dream was so real that Ceylan was barely able to realise it was one, as he even felt the same itching through-out his body. He woke up in anxious sweat, but the drugs had gotten him woozy enough to fall asleep almost immediately afterwards. It's when the next dream hit him. This time, he was a neko, who was barely able to walk a few steps before almost fainting from exhaustion. As he fainted in his dream, he woke up again, only for him to fall back asleep and enter the next nightmare. The process started repeating itself. A young bird-like beast who was starting to loose her feathers out of the blue. A large, strong rhino-like beast who prided himself on being able to lift the heaviest weights being reduced to a weakened mess by some sort of flue... Whilst Ceylan's nightmares were too hazy and his mind too far away to make sense of it all; the dreams weren't random, they were what many of the citizens had gone through and were going through. The type of thing Malerie had been battling while she'd been here.<br>
<br>
When Ceylan finally woke up, he felt more exhausted then when he started sleeping. He grouchily made his way outside, recalling he'd spotted a water reservoir just outside the building at the central plaza in the city where he could drink some and freshen up. It was eerily silent on the streets, likely due to everyone being sick at home.<br>
<br>
At the office, Harley had also woken up. The hare instantly grabbed his head. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Fuuuu.... what the hell have I been doing...?”</b></span> He looked around, spotting the mayor on the other couch in the room. The large minotaur was still asleep, but he was no longer in any danger. His sleep was one of simple exhaustion, as he'd been exhausted from trying to figure out what was going on in the city even before he'd gotten his disease. That said, it might be best to let him sleep to make sure he'd get a full recovery, as waking him would require a fair bit of force and might not get a lot of results, as he likely wouldn't awaken in the best of states right now<br>
<br>
There was, however, another person that came into the building. <br>
<br>

Miss Nana hopped in, looking around until she'd find Malerie. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Ah, miss Malerie, there you are!”</b></span> She'd proudly present a basket of freshly baked bread and a few bottles of milk. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“Since all of you are working so hard, I figured I'd get up early and at least make sure you'd all get a good breakfast... but... how did it end up with the mayor? Is he okay?”</b></span> The bunny was displaying an equal amount of pride towards her work as worry towards the mayor, but beneath it, Malerie might spot another thing. Nana was hopping around slightly less energetic and her eyelids looked like they were swollen a little as well. Upon paying attention to it, it also looked like blinking was painful to her.<br>
<br>
As for Cayde, now that they'd spent the night in the mayor's office, he likely would've spotted the small library in the building, which included some books on alchemy and biology. He'd probably recognise most of the titles in there, but what stood out weren't the books on the shelves, but the books that were laying around. They were all about medicine, opened on various pages, with notes written down on pieces of paper strewn about in the room. After a bit of rummaging, it'd be clear that someone had been looking for clues as to what might tie all the diseases together, but hadn't managed to spot any similarity. As the handwriting was pretty neat and tidy, it didn't seem likely for it to be from the mayor's large hands or Harley's old ones. <br>
<br>
Ceylan would head back into the office after freshening himself up, looking a tad bit better than he did before, but still clearly being rather exhausted. Even so, he went to put on his official vestments and even got some incense ready. If he was to try getting Cayde and Malerie into the crypts with him, he'd need to be on his best behaviour. Letting outsiders into such a place wasn't normally allowed and Cayde and Malerie didn't exactly look like they were the most saintly individuals. He wondered if he should try to bring that up to them, but decided against it. Once he was done, he just wanted to go through a few things with Cayde and Malerie one more time. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It won't be easy to get you two into the crypt, but I'll try to convince them to allow it. Please don't get frustrated if they come across as needlessly rigid or unreasonable. A lot of the time, they act a lot more unreasonable then they look like, just to test someone's patience and we can't afford to make an enemy out of the church here.”</b></span> <br>
<br>
If Malerie or Cayde still wanted to do something before heading for the crypts, whether arranging for things or getting supplies or anything of the like, now would be the time to do it. After all, it wasn't likely they were going to be allowed to freely enter and leave the crypts whenever they wanted.</div>

The first thing that stood out about the Holy City of Vegard (located in the beast country above Ryken, in the far north of it) was that the entire city wasn't visible from a distance, at least not from those approaching it by land. The entire city was located on the rocks of a cliff-side below a large open plain. Like everyone that walked towards the Holy City of Vegard, Maikoa would be faced with a thick fog spread around the cliffs, especially now, in the early morning. Amongst that fog, however, was a single bridge that would lead people off of the cliffs and onto the small path towards the city itself. (In the image, it's the large bridge near the top of the image. Maikoa would be approaching from the top right of the image. Imagine there being a cliff-side and plains behind that fog.)<br>
<br>
The bridge was normally heavily guarded, as it was the only way into this city of religious and cultural importance to a lot of the [beast] populace. However, with nearly everyone being ill, the guards were spread incredibly thin. At the moment, there was only one person guarding the bridge. Upon seeing Maikoa approach, he walked up to the middle of the bridge to stop her from wandering through.<br>

He also seemed to be having some trouble focussing, likely because he was in pain, which was confirmed when he reached for his head with one of his hands, likely dealing with the pain of a severe headache.</div>

Cayde slept like a rock that night. He wasn't sure if it was the day's work, the fact he was sleeping on something other than a bedroll, or that he felt safer sleeping inside. However, what he did feel was the sharp pain in his neck as he woke the next morning. Still a bit groggy, Cayde winced and lazily rubbed at the pain. Hopefully, a sore neck would be the only nuisance he'd experience today. After a few minutes of massaging, the pain in his neck finally subsided, and Cayde rose from the couch, grabbing his mask off a nearby table. When all was said and done, Cayde trudged into the hallways, making his way to the mayor's office. <br>
<br>
Cayde was fairly inattentive along the way, but as he passed by a certain room, something within caught his attention. He doubled back and peeked inside, spotting what seemed to be a small library. Several books and scraps of papers were lying about, and Cayde, being the nosy person he was, decided to quickly look around. Interestingly enough, the first book he found was about alchemy. Though the title didn't ring a bell, the words on the pages did: on it was instructions on how to create restorative salves and potions along with their effects. The next book he picked up was about Biology and was turned to a section describing illnesses and viruses attributed to humans and beastkin, with a short section describing their signs, symptoms, and treatment. Next to it, a small note was attached with several questions and theories written down. He spotted several more notes as he looked around him, all with similar theories. His eyes squinting in speculation, Cayde shut the book and grabbed a few notes; he'd have to show Ceylan and Malerie this. <br>
<br>
Eventually, Cayde entered the mayor's office, notes and mask in hand. Fortunately, he came just in time to hear Ceylan speak, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Hopefully, it won't take too much convincing. I'd say they're running out of options." </span></b>He stated, before showing them the note, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"And before I forget: on the way here, I found these notes attached to some books. I don't think the mayor wrote them, but whoever did was trying to figure this whole thing out. Get the pieces together, y'know?" </span></b>He took a moment to re-read the notes and nodded along with them, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"It sounds like they know what they're talking about. Who knows, maybe we'll find them on the way to the crypts?" </b></span><br>
<br>
In the corner of his eye, he caught Miss Nana hopping around. Considering he just openly admitted his ransacking of the library, Cayde felt a little bad. A small frown formed on his face as he addressed her, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Sorry for being so nosy, Miss Nana. I probably should've come to you first..." </span></b>He trailed off, before noticing the basket full of bread and milk. Instantly, his frown shifted to a warm smile, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"But thank you for the food. We appreciate it." <br>
 </b></span></div>

The monster woke from her slumber, blinking away the sleepiness as she stretched. Her eyes flicked to the door, thinking, hoping that today would be the final day she needed to be constantly healing those in the city. She had gotten used to the lack of sleep she often received on those days, but after taking a good rest, she could feel the exhaustion catching up to her, and she much preferred to not have this feeling hanging over her anymore.<br>
<br>
She slowly stood, stretching once more as she smacked her lips, thinking about the other bodily needs she had. Specifically, her stomach. As she thought about that, the monster heard the door open. She turned to see Miss Nana bringing in the bread and milk, causing her to grin. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"My hero~ You always seem to know the perfect time to make an entrance, Nana~"</span> She walked over, about to take some of the food when her eyes flitted to the bunny's face. She took the food and milk from Nana's hands, but instead of eating any, she walked over to a table, placing the food down, before coming back over to the bunny. The healer knelt down, checking the bunny over, searching for a diagnosis. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Nana... What did I say when I left to go after the mayor?" </span>She reached down, lifting the bunny up and carrying her over to one of the more comfy chairs.<br>
<br>
She plopped the bunny down on one, continuing her diagnosis, thinking it was either a Stye or pink eye. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"If you forgot, I said if you weren't well rested when I next saw you, I was going to tuck you into bed and make sure you stay there for the rest of the day. And while I don't have a bed here, and I can't stay for too much longer, you are not only not rested, but sick."</span> She started to go to work, mainly helping the lady through more mundane ways, before finally pressing her back up against the chair. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Now, I'm gonna leave you here with Harley, and you better stay here or go into a bed and rest off the healing I did on you, or else I'm going to come back here and sit by you, watching you, waiting on you hand and foot until you're rested. See if I don't!"</span> She stuck out her tongue at the other lady before her stomach growled. She giggled, somewhat embarrassed, as she stood up, turning back to the food. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"However, my beautiful, wonderful, amazing hero, I will partake in the offered food~ Have you eaten yourself? If not, I'll share the portion you made for me."</span> She strode towards the food, picking up one of the bottles of milk and a loaf of bread, turning to look quizzically at the bunny, waiting for her answer.​</div></div>

Maikoa looked towards the guard, her eyes slowly looking over the rhino beast man, her tone quiet and soft. Her instincts told her to get into the city, and she had no reason to fight her instincts, so she simply nodded. "I am aware, but I cannot turn back. I must get into the city Illness or no." She said softly, shaking her head at the refusal of the guard. She had come here after the battle, having run all this way, simply following where her instincts told her to go. And this is where she found herself.<br>
<br>
"You seem unwell. Are you yourself stricken by this illness?" She asked, her tone still soft, like wind billowing through leaves as she got a bit closer, tilting her head on her approach as her bare feet made barely a sound against the stone bridge, her wooden covering moving as if it were cloth, beginning to approach the guard closer. She had no idea why she did what she was doing, but all she knew was to continue and follow her instincts into the village.<br>
<br>
"Perhaps there might be some way for me to help." She offered, reaching a hand out slowly, the bare skin protruding out of the bark that made of sleeves of sorts.</div>

Ceylan couldn't but give a small chuckle at Cayde's optimism. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Running out of options might only make them more obstinate, as they wouldn't want to come across as desperate.”</b></span> He then took a look at the notes Cayde had found. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It's...”</b></span> Ceylan started his reply before figuring out how to frame it. He'd been dreaming about a lot of these diseases through-out the night, but saying it directly like that might be a bit much. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It looks like a record of the illnesses everyone in the city experienced and how to cure them.”</b></span><br>

Miss Nana, before being intercepted by Malerie, was addressed by Cayde. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“That's okay dear, I understand, although it'll probably take a while to get my notes back in order.”</b></span> The latter statement probably reminded Cayde of how miss Nana had been introduced as the town's doctor the day before, which would put the presence of all those notes into place. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“And don't worry about the food, it's the least I can do.”</b></span><br>
<br>
That's when Malerie caught onto Nana's presence. She instantly managed to embarrass the poor bunny women. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“But... I did return home. It's just that, this morning, the son of miss Whitefeather came by, saying his mother had gotten sick again and I couldn't just leave her be, right? So I made sure to prescribe her some medicine again.”</b></span> Malerie would recognise the name as that of a family of aptly named swan-like beasts, of whom the mother had a pretty bad throat infection that required her to be on medicine to keep the swelling down just to keep eating and breathing.<br>
<br>
As for Nana herself, now that Malerie was looking at it from up-close, it looked a lot like it might be myxamotose. The latter's effects ranged from mild to severe depending on the type of rabbit it was affecting. What it'd do to miss Nana was entirely unclear, but the current effect didn't seem all that severe. The bunny was surprisingly fierce in her reply to Malerie. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“It's just a little swelling dear. I can't just rest because of some discomfort when there are people at risk of dying out there!”</b></span> <br>
<br>
Ceylan, overhearing the conversation, sighed and headed up to them. After debating his options, he ended up siding with miss Nana. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I understand wanting to keep her safe and sound, but we need every available healer out there if we want to continue making sure that nobody dies to this. I promise I'll use every bit of magic at my disposal to heal her if she becomes seriously ill, but I don't think we have a right to keep her from doing her work. Until then, the best we can do is to solve this at its core as soon as possible.”</b></span><br>
<br>
With that all out of the way, however, it was time for them to head over to the church. The building wasn't located far from the office, so it only took them a short walk to get there. However, they wouldn't even make it inside before running into their first obstacle, as the door opened up while they were approaching, revealing a rat-like beast.<br>

<span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“Ah. You.”</b></span> The rat-like beast looked to Ceylan, ignoring the other two. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“You're the Syncretist, then?”</b></span> There was some hostility in the rat's voice. <br>
<br>
Ceylan remained calm. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That is right. I am Ceylan, High Priest of the Syncretist Church.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The rat looked at him from top to bottom and back again. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“You smell like sewer.”</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm afraid I did not have the luxury of a change of clothes and that yesterday's events forced me to explore the sewer system.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The rat was scratching his neck, looking annoyed. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“So a dive into the sewers was more important than meeting a fellow priest?”</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“The situation led to it, for which I apologise.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The rat was scratching his arm now, but still looked annoyed. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“Fine, I'll forgive it. I was just heading out to check up on some patients. Are you here to join me?”</b></span><br>
<br>
Ceylan shook his head. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I am afraid I cannot do so at the current moment. We have reason to believe that the source of these diseases may lie within the crypt and wish to inspect them.”</b></span><br>
<br>
At that, the rat genuine seemed surprised. Shocked, even, at the fact that Ceylan would suggest such a thing. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“Our sacred grounds are no breeding ground of disease. Your suggestion is an insult to our entire church. I hope you realise that.”</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I am well aware, but I still hope to beg your forgiveness and continue to press the issue. If I were to be proven wrong, it would put my heart at ease.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The rat sighed, scratching his right leg. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“I would allow you entrance, seeing how you're still a priest, despite being a Syncretist, but you sound like you're suggesting that you wish to bring these two...”</b></span> The priest swallowed some choice words. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“... into our sacred crypts?”</b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That is correct. I can vouch for their good nature and ability to aid.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Rather than replying, the rat looked at Cayde and Malerie, clearly expecting them to say something. What he wished to hear from them, however, wasn't entirely clear. Ceylan could only hope they wouldn't say something provocative. <br>

Further outside the city, the bridge guard was clearly struggling to make sense of Maikoa in his current condition. Something felt off about her, but he didn't have the right state of mind to make sense of it. <span style="color: #708090"><b>“Everyone is.”</b></span> He replied to her question. He was highly sceptical of her ability to help, stepping back when she offered him a hand. <span style="color: #708090"><b>“Unless you're a healer or someone with that priest and alchemist that are going around town, I doubt you'd be able to do anything.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Unknowingly, the bridge guard had just given her two excellent excuses to be let into the city. Or perhaps the bridge guard did know about it and was looking for an excuse to not have to deal with her. Either way, it looked like he wasn't willing to risk having to face her in his current condition and that he was eager to find an excuse to let her pass. He likely wouldn't even be able to come after her, if she were to just jog past him, for that matter. It was clear his headaches were severe enough for him to not even function properly. <br>

Regardless of her methods, Maikoa would find herself being able to go through. It'd set her on the same majestic path down into the city as the others had walked through before her. The bridge itself was a spectacular piece of architecture whilst the cliffs were full of natural beauty. The path winding downwards and the second bridge between both cliffs even further highlighted the beauty of it all as the lower parts were free of the fog and gave an excellent view of the ocean spreading out before her. However, upon entering the town proper, it'd be eerily silent. Everyone seemed to be at home, hidden away behind the safety of their doors. The only thing that would stand out was a group in front of the church, which included a dog-like beast and a rat-like beast that were arguing about something and two people with beaked faces.</div>

However, at the same time, the slightest error would result in chipping and failure overtime.<br>
<br>
When she saw the group in front of the church, she began to slowly approach, pulled by her instincts. She was nearly silent due to her bare feet against the ground, approaching behind the impossibly thicc nevermore, but not really paying that fact much mind, more listening to what was going on silently, her wooden clothes making nary a sound as she stepped behind Ceylan and Cayde. <span style="color: rgb(65, 168, 95)">"What... is happening?"</span> She asked, forming her words as she went, unfamiliar with speaking the common tongue, but still giving it her best shot.</div>

Cayde listened in quietly as Ceylan and Preston conversed, waiting for his turn his speak. Hearing the smaller priest rebuke Ceylan was surprising but not unexpected; Ceylan did say they were pretty rigid. As they continued speaking, Cayde wondered what'd he'd say when it was finally his turn. Unfortunately, Preston seemed to be in a sour mood, so flattering him was not an option. Instead, Cayde would have to do what he did best: blinding honesty.<br>
<br>
As soon as Preston looked towards him and Malerie, Cayde immediately stepped forwards. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"I'm Cayde, Alchemist by trade." </span></b>He greeted, giving Preston a courteous nod, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Ceylan and I have been trying to put an end to this outbreak since yesterday, but our friend Malerie has been aiding the sick here for far longer." </b></span>He said, glancing to both his companions, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"We've managed to cure a few, including your city's mayor, but I'm afraid there's still more work to be done, which brings us here." </span></b>Cayde straightened his posture, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Look, I understand if you're hesitant to let me in - to be honest, I'm not as well versed in religion as you or Ceylan, but I swear I will uphold the sanctity of your crypts. If I so deviate, I trust for either you or my friend Ceylan to set me back in line."</b></span><br>
<br>
As his monologue came to a close, Cayde failed to notice Maikao creeping in on them. It was only until she spoke that he'd turned his head to look at her, and as he caught sight, Cayde's eyes went wide with confusion and slight intrigue. He thought Malerie looked strange, with her resemblance to kenkus, but the woman who stood behind him looked like no beast he'd ever seen. Cayde could only fumble out a few words from his lips, responding, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Uh...hi?"</b></span> He promptly turned his head to Ceylan, his voice hushed but full of bewilderment, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Um, Ceylan, who... who is that?" </b></span></div>

Malerie opened her mouth to respond before closing it, deciding it would be better to not say words when the other woman was so riled up like this, and when she herself had felt a surge of annoyance that she would prefer to not grow into anything worse. She instead started to eat her roll, waiting to for herself to calm down before she said, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Nana, you won't be able to help anyone if you yourself are exhausted from working while sick."</span><br>
<br>
As the others started to head out, she started walking towards the door, before pausing in the doorway. She waited once more as she thought about her next words. Finally, after almost half a minute of silence, she said, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"At least wait for fifteen minutes. By then what I gave you should have done enough for you to continue work. But after this pandemic is done, promise me you're going to rest, alright?"</span> Without another word, she exited the building, closing the door behind her<br>
___________________________________<br>
<br>
Once they got to the church, Malerie decided to not get into the argument taking place. Instead, she waited, patiently, as the others talked. As the tree lady walked towards them, her eyes flitted to the other monster, not sure how to respond. This lady wasn't sick, so she didn't need healing. Maybe the others would be better when it came to talking to her.​</div></div>

Malerie managed to strike a deal with the bunny women, as the latter didn't seem eager to argue with her any more than she'd alrady done. Being a doctor herself, Nana knew what exhaustion could do to you, but at the same time, her pride as the city's primary healer was on the line here. She'd take the fifteen minutes out of respect for Malerie's work, but didn't look like she'd give it as much as a second more than that.<br>

Preston, whilst scratching his right leg, listened to Cayde's introduction with a badly faked sense of disinterest. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“The both of you look more like the type of people that'd be sent in when an apocalyptic plague requires the city to be cleansed of all life.”</b></span> The priest didn't exactly mince his words. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“That alone might violate the sanctity of this place.”</b></span><br>
<br>

Ceylan was about to interject, but he spotted the same creature heading towards them as Cayde did. He stood in silent wonder until Cayde's question snapped him out of it. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I truly have no idea.”</b></span> The odd new arrival truly complicated things even more, as while she didn't seem hostile, just her being here under these circumstances was about as suspicious as it could get. <br>
<br>
Considering Malerie held her tongue and Cayde was too caught up by surprise, Ceylan ended up being the one to address Maikoa. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“The city is suffering from an increase in disease and illness, likely caused by a curse of sorts.”</b></span> He observed her as he gave her his reply. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Now that you know what's happening, I'd like to know who you are and what brings you here.”</b></span><br>

The one that was by far the least amused with all of this was Preston. He looked at Maikoa with a mixture of distrust and hostility. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“So now we've got odd woodland creatures running wild as well?”</b></span> All of a sudden, however, he seemed shocked by something. It wasn't exactly clear by what, but the shock vanished soon after. Only a slight change in attitude remained when he spoke up next. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“How about this. I'll let you all into the crypts in exchange for the group of you keeping an eye on this ... plant, over there. Surely our ancestors will understand that the sanctity of our crypts comes second to the safety of our city, so if you truly believe there is something to be solved by entering the crypts, I won't stop you from going there.”</b></span> He wasn't exactly good at hiding the fact that he had some ulterior motive, but regardless of what it was, he seemed to be willing to give them exactly what they wanted for it. Whether or not they'd trust him was another question.</div>

It didn't take long for Cayde to notice Preston's sudden change of heart. He was keen on keeping them out just a second ago, but he turned on a whim as soon as Maikoa arrived. Underneath his mask, a slight frown formed. It was clear Preston had something in store for them, but just what exactly was it? As bad as he wanted to know, Cayde tried to resist the urge to ask him. As far as Cayde knew, Preston was the only way to get into the crypts, or at least - the only way they could get in without provoking the church. Probing for more answers would only spoil this opportunity.<br>
<br>
Still, Cayde was unsure if he should even take the offer. Not only were Preston's motives was incredibly vague, but so was Maikoa's. Granted, she could've been a curious passerby, but that'd be unlikely with the city's current condition. Maikoa could've been a traveler like him and Ceylan, but how would she have entered the city? Wasn't it on lockdown? Maybe she was a healer? Or perhaps she was a citizen? The longer Cayde thought, the more questions he had. <br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"So all we have to do is bring her with us...?" </b></span>Cayde asked skeptically, turning his head to scan Maikoa once more. He shrugged and turned to Ceylan, who was already asking her questions. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I mean, she's probably here for the same reason we are, right? I don't see why we shouldn't take her with us?" </b></span>He said, voice still laden with uncertainty. Cayde would have to wait for Maikoa's answers to finalize his decision.</div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Maikoa listened to those around, first responding to Ceylan while placing a hand on her hip. "I.... I am Maikoa." She said, recalling her name as she had never introduced herself before now. "I have no reason to be here. I only followed my instincts and they told me to come here." She explained simply, looking around at the group as the priest began to speak, her eyes looking down at him. She saw his surprise on his face, but she had no reason to bring it up, so she simply ignored it for the time being. Instead, she looked over the group curiously, wondering why they needed to keep an eye on her.<br>
<br>
"I wanted to go within either way. So I suppose I will follow you." She said, her hands slowly moving to her hips as she gestured for them to lead the way, swishing her hair out of her face. "I will go where you wish." She said, walking closer to the group, looking at the other monster in the group, humming to herself before looking at the steeple and priest once more, her yellow eyes gazing over all of it while she gently gripped the fruit at her hip.</div>

The doctor shuffled awkwardly at the way the conversation went. The new person troubled her, but possibly more importantly the priest made her uncomfortable. He seemed to have motives that he wasn't saying outright, and  she couldn't exactly infer that much with someone like him, who she hadn't really met during her time in the city. All she knew was she would probably be checking her back when they went into the church. <br>
<br>
She glanced at the wood lady as the other did the same, and after the hum was elicited, the puzzlement inside of Malerie's mind only increased. What was with this new person? She seemed strange, almost alien, unlike anyone she had ever met before in the last world or this one. She scooted closer to Ceylan, almost as if expecting him to protect her from the two new, confusing people.​</div></div>

<br>
Preston nodded at Cayde's question. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“Yes. All I need is for you all to keep an eye on her.”</b></span> He said, as he scratched his arm.<br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #00BFFF">Ceylan </span><br>

Ceylan, meanwhile, was thoroughly confused. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Your.. instincts, told you to come here?”</b></span> She didn't look like someone with a strong sixth sense, nor like someone being granted godly divination. Her desire to enter the crypts was odd at best and dangerous at worst. That's when Ceylan figured out Preston's plan. It was a good one, save for a few uncomfortable facts... After an awkward moment of silence, Ceylan decided he'd make the gamble. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Cayde is right. There's no reason not to bring her along.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Ceylan felt bad when he noticed Malerie was uncomfortable, as he had an inkling of what was about to happen when he turned to Preston. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Please lead the way.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Preston smiled. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“Of course.”</b></span> The rat-like priest went back into the church, walking all the way to the other side of it and entered a small side-roam with a spiralling staircase downwards. They first entered a relatively normal basement level, with supplies stacked up in it. Preston grabbed a few torches for them and lit them up. There was another staircase down further into the room, which led to a small hallway. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“As you might know, the crypts are part of a natural cave located deep into these cliffs. They say it even stretches far enough to go under the water and to lead to entrances hidden away in the mainland, so please make sure not to get lost in them.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Ceylan nodded, as that was the final clue he needed. By now, the others might've figured out what Preston was up too as well, so he hoped they realised it was best to play along. It wasn't long after entering the hallway that they encountered a heavy looking door. Preston moved ahead of them, using a set of keys to open up two hefty looking locks and moving aside a door beam. After that, he opened the door and stepped aside. <span style="color: #FFF5EE"><b>“Well then, good luck and may your gods be with you.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Ceylan nodded. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“And with you. Thank you for your aid.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Not long after they'd all entered the first room of the crypts, which was an entirely empty small and plain room, they'd hear the door close behind them and being locked. If the others hadn't realised it yet, they'd probably do so now. Preston's change of heart was the switch from seeing them as wanting to intrude into the crypts to people that had intruded into the city and needed to be sent out.<br>
<br>
Ceylan didn't take long to finally do what he felt he should've done before, using his appraisal on both Malerie and Maikoa. He gave a deep sigh upon seeing the results confirmed. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That priest is too sharp for his own good. He almost instantly realised the both of you were monsters.”</b></span> After gathering his thoughts, he presented them to the others. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“In any normal scenario, he would've had to call for the two of you to be executed on the spot. Considering the vast majority of monsters are dangerous, deadly and unreasonable, people don't tend to take risks with them. Those that fail to report a monster might even be at risk of being arrested themselves. However, in the current condition of the city and perhaps due to Malerie's aid, it seemed like he thought his best move was to lock us out of the city by sending us into the crypts. All things considered, it was the most reasonable course of action from his perspective.”</b></span><br>
<br>
After another sigh, Ceylan continued. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I think we'll be okay if we manage to find the source of the diseases here and if the tunnels he alluded to truly exist, as we'll be able to fix the issue and escape without issue. If either of those things turn out to be wrong, however, we're in deep trouble.”</b></span> He didn't wish to think about the latter alternative. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm sorry I didn't warn any of you when I realised, but this was the best way for us to get into the crypts without risking a conflict.”</b></span><br>
<br>
As he finished speaking, he turned to Maikoa. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Would you mind telling us a bit about yourself?”</b></span> Her sudden arrival was the most dubious factor in all of this. Ceylan still wasn't sure whether he'd done right to be locked away with her. <br>
<br>
Not long after he finished, however, he started to feel bad. The lack of sleep, the relatively claustrophobic space, the presence of an unknown monster with unclear intentions, the fact hat they might be locked away in some crypts, the suddenness of it all and the feeling he'd betrayed Cayde by going along with this plan without informing him all weighed heavy on his mind, but they were still no match for the terrible feeling of something being wrong. If the city had been tainted by the feeling of 'heavy weight' due to his sixth sense going off, these crypts were like an overwhelming burden. A wry smile spread across his lips as he tried to keep himself up. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“At least it feels like we're in the right place...”</b></span><br>
<br>
Their next challenge, however, would be of a different kind. The crypts existed of multiple dark hallways that branched off into random directions. Some were naturally formed parts of a cave, others were man-made hallways between them. There were sarcophagi placed on shelves cut out of the rocks themselves, with a level of detail suggesting that this crypt was mostly used for the rich or important figures. There weren't any signs of this place being disturbed, but the area was one that wouldn't easily show such signs to begin with.<br>
<br>
What the crypt lacked most was a comprehensive lay-out, as it was interwoven with the randomness of the naturally formed cave. All that was clear was that it wasn't all that big horizontally, only vertically. They'd find staircases going further and further down through-out the crypts if they kept looking. With Ceylan being in the state he was in and getting worse the deeper they went down, he wouldn't be of much help navigating, so it'd be up to the others to find a system or manner of navigation that'd get them through this smoothly enough.</div>

The second Cayde took a step into the crypts; he felt a chill go down his spine. He was <i>this</i> close to finding out whatever was causing all this, and the thought of meeting it didn't sit well with him. Regardless, Cayde tried to steel himself; if this place made him feel uneasy, he couldn't imagine what Ceylan was going through right now. However, that confidence soon fleeted as Cayde heard the doors lock behind him, effectively sealing him and his companions in the crypt. He turned and immediately started jostling at the handles, but no matter how hard he pulled, they wouldn't budge. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Son of a-,"  </span></b>Cayde mumbled before stopping himself. Even with Preston's tricks and his evident frustration, Cayde still made a promise.<br>
<br>
With an exasperated sigh, Cayde let go of the door, but he could overhear Ceylan talking to Malerie and Maikoa over his shoulder. Upon hearing the two were monsters, he was struck with a realization. No wonder they lacked the attributes of beasts; they were never beasts to begin with. Though after hearing that, Cayde felt conflicted. He was always told monsters were cruel and uncooperative creatures, but from his time with Malerie, she'd been nothing but helpful and considerate to other people. Even Maikoa, as cryptic as she was, just seemed genuinely curious about her surroundings. For monsters that were supposedly untrustworthy fiends, the two seemed oddly...human.<br>
<br>
Deciding not to think of it any further, Cayde shook the thought out of his head. Monsters or not, they were all stuck in here together, and persecuting each other wouldn't help them reach their goal. Still, Cayde kept quiet as they traveled through the tunnels.<br>
<br>
After passing by some sarcophagi and eventually finding a set of stairs leading downwards, Cayde would think up a way to navigate through the crypts. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Hey, so I might have an idea..." </b></span>He said cautiously, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"If we want to go deeper in here, I think we should follow the artificial parts. See, Preston said they built this place apart of the caves, which means they used the cave's structure to form parts of the crypt. So the sections without coffins or any man-made details are probably the natural tunnels he was talking about, and I can only assume those are the paths that lead out from the crypts. Why would they need to renovate tunnels out of here when nature's already done it?" </b></span><br>
<br>
<span style="color: null">Cayde pointed over to a sarcophagus through the faint torchlight, </span><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"<b>And just check out those sarcophagi. Look at all the detail they put into those shelves - the church obviously didn't want to throw their dead in some dank cave - they wanted to make some parts presentable." </b></span>Cayde realized he was rambling and shook his head before simplifying his ravings, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I'm just saying we should follow where the coffins and constructed parts lead."</b></span></div>

The nevermore walked in, shuffling her feet as she moved past the man. He made her feel uncomfortable, and the quicker she got away from him, the better. She almost was glad when he didn't follow them down, and when Ceylan mentioned him being too sharp, she couldn't help but reply, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"He seemed like he actively wanted to stop us. I'm not sure why he would do that if he had any sort of good intentions for the city..."</span> She glanced back, as if checking to make sure he wasn't following them. She would keep doing that, over and over, since she almost could feel his eyes on the back of her neck.<br>
<br>
She glanced back at him once more when he mentioned her being a monster. She smiled sheepishly, having been caught in not exactly a lie, as they hadn't really ever asked what she truly was, but it was more of a half truth. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"How long did you know? Or... is it more for me what I am? I guess other healers kind of know of my type of race."</span> She glanced back  in the direction they came from again, this time also trying to hide the humiliation on her face. It wasn't something she was proud of at all, but the other one definitely was. She just hoped she wasn't forced to bring them out before she was able to leave the group on good terms.​</div></div>

<br>
Ceylan, although not being of the same mind as his fellow priest, could at least understand his reasoning. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“In times of difficulty, a lot of people look to the church for some sort of stability and guidance. It wouldn't be surprising to me if he's been forced to put on an act of being in control ever since the first diseases happened, especially considering the state the mayor was in, so regardless of the outcome, I believe his intentions were noble.”</b></span> He could spot her nervous behaviour even without his improved insight. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“What I'm trying to say is that you shouldn't have to be so worried about him.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Malerie's question was a bit more difficult to reply too. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I...”</b></span> He started, before changing his mind. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Truth be told, I had my suspicions ever since we've met, but I chose to ignore them and focus on the problems at hand.”</b></span> When he spotted the humility on Malerie's face, he instinctively reached out to lay his hand on her odd mask-like head, speaking his next words as if he was giving her a blessing. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm glad I did so, as it has shown me your sincerity in helping this city and that you're more than your species.”</b></span> He wasn't sure about the other monster, but Malerie, at the very least, had more than proven herself to be of good nature.<br>
<br>
With that out of the way, he turned his attention to more practical matters at hand. Cayde had come up with a rather sharp observation on how to navigate this place. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“You're right!”</b></span> Ceylan said, as he checked the names on the crypts they passed. The ones in the man-made parts were definitely the more famous and influential people, compared to the ones in the natural parts of the cave-system, which backed up Cayde's observation on the level of detail. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“We can even do the opposite and follow the natural parts once we've solved things here, to find our way out.”</b></span><br>
<br>
The observation had gotten him a spurt of energy, as he held up the torch he'd been using higher to look further into the tunnels. Thanks to Cayde's observation, they were able to make their way further down into the crypts without unnecessary detours. It was clear they were going deep, however, as they kept ascending different sets of stairs at every twist and turn. Eventually, they were undoubtedly below the sea-level. However, as they went deeper, the odd feeling of pressure increased more and more, to the point where Ceylan felt like he as wading through the water.<br>
<br>
In fact, even Maikoa would start to pick up on it, as the pressure was strong enough for those having an affinity for magic to feel it upon getting this close, albeit to a far lesser degree. For Cayde and Malerie, it was even more subtle, as whilst they didn't actively experience the sense of pressure, they were likely to start feeling nervous and perhaps a bit paranoid. There was clearly something wrong in these depths of the crypt. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #FFE4B5"><b> Desecrated Crypt </b></span><br>
<div class="bbImageWrapper  js-lbImage" title="pHL7Oul.jpg" data-src="/proxy.php?image=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FpHL7Oul.jpg%3F1&amp;hash=e5fac2f56ea5fd7a0176a603c931300d" data-lb-sidebar-href="" data-lb-caption-extra-html="" data-single-image="1">

	</div></span></b>​</div><br>
When they eventually arrived at the very bottom of the crypt, they saw a hallway leading into a very peculiar scene. An odd statue of a winged women holding a knife downwards, as if ready to plunge it into someone, was standing in the light of some sort of light-giving-crystal embedded into the roof, although various candles were places through-out the room to further light up the place. Skulls were randomly laying through-out the crypt, which was a stark contrast with the clean and well-kept parts of the crypt they'd gone through thus far. Ceylan was noticeably shocked when he saw the disrespect with which the remains of the dead were treated, as some even had candles places upon the skulls. Cayde, being the most perceptive of the bunch, would spot that some of these candles were pretty new...<br>
<br>
The odd stone coffin-like structure in the middle didn't seem to be there to hold someone's remains, but what it's exact purpose was, was unclear. What would stand out, however, were the odd vines growing from it. Whilst they were just odd to everyone else, to Maikoa, these things would look very differently. They were vile. Extremely vile. Whilst her own magic allowed plants to grow spontaneously for a while, it felt like any contact with these vines would do the exact opposite and like they'd bring disease and suffering to anything they'd touch. She'd instinctively realise that messing with these vines without a proper plan was not likely to end up well.<br>
<br>
Ceylan, meanwhile, was struggling to combine observing the room with not passing out from the pressure he felt in this place. He didn't recognise the plants, but he did recognise the statue. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It's an angel of death. They're pretty controversial. Some say they bring salvation to those that suffering by taking them to paradise, others say they require people to be sacrificed to them. There's a growing group of people that think they can obtain supernatural powers by doing so.”</b></span> Ceylan, however, was missing out on how this was linked to the events going on in the city above them, until he spotted something through his sixth sense. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“It's like... there's a curse set-up to spread some malign properties of something into the city, but I can't figure out what it is...”</b></span><br>
<br>
Malerie, being a Nevermore, was likely to realise the potential of this for the more evil-inclined ones among her species. After all, a mechanism that could cause people to fall ill would be a very good way to get people to rely on their healing. <br>
<br>
As they were standing in this crypt, they'd all start feeling a growing tiredness, but they'd also start to feel hot, then cold, then hot again, whilst feeling a bit woozy. Malerie, having the most medicine knowledge, was likely the first to realise that their immune systems themselves were starting to go haywire. Ceylan and Cayde would soon realise the same thing, considering their own healing and medicine knowledge. It was clear that they needed a plan and that they needed one fast, if they didn't want their bodies to succumb to whatever was going on here.</div>

As soon as he stepped into the desecrated chamber, Cayde felt an adrenaline rush as his body was wracked with a wave of strange symptoms. He thought it was just his nervousness afflicting him, but as his body went from hot to cold and became increasingly lethargic, Cayde knew this wasn't just his anxiety. As he tried to look for the source, Cayde's eyes eventually saw the statue standing in the middle. The longer he stared at it, the more uneasy he became; Cayde wasn't sure if being in the statue's presence was causing these afflictions, but Cayde was sure of one thing: he didn't want to be in the room with this thing for long.<br>
<br>
Regardless, Cayde decided to survey the chamber for clues. As he did so, he listened to Ceylan absentmindedly, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Angel of death, Sacrifices, Supernatural powers..." </span></b>he muttered to himself with a shudder, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"This is like the gnoll situation all over again..."</b></span><br>
<br>
Eventually, Cayde found some skulls littered about the crypt, some bearing candles inside their eye sockets. As Cayde moved closer to inspect the macabre display, he noticed something unsettling. While the skulls themselves were old, the candles placed inside them seemed relatively new - the wax hadn't even begun to pool yet. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"These candles..." </b></span>Cayde said hesitantly, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"They're still new. Someone just put them here." </span></b>Cayde checked his surroundings for the signs of another person, but other than the three he came into the crypts with, no one else was there. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"They've gotta be around here, right?" </b></span><br>
<br>
After investigating the skulls, Cayde stumbled upon another bizarre sight: long vines leading away from a coffin in the center. Curious, Cayde knelt to observe them, but they seemed ordinary vines from what he could see. Granted, he was puzzled about how they were able to grow in a place like this, but from sight alone, he couldn't detect any anomalous properties. Still, Cayde wanted a second opinion, and who better than the woodland monster Maikoa. <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Uh, Maikoa," </b></span>He called out with a hint of reluctance, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Do these vines seem weird to you? Or is it just me?" </span></b><br>
<br>
Cayde's eyes drifted over to the stone coffin as he awaited an answer, studying how the vines protruded from it. At that moment, he remembered something Ceylan said earlier, specifically something about sacrifices. He tried to put the pieces together: there was a statue depicting a being that took offerings, a large stone coffin that could hold something inside, and evidence that someone was recently here before. As he scoured his mind for answers, Cayde slowly came to a dark realization.<br>
<br>
<span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Wait, Everyone. You don't think someone's in there..?" </b></span>Cayde said as he pointed over to the coffin, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"We know someone was just here. Ceylan said this <i>angel</i> needed a sacrifice, and these weird vines are coming out of this coffin. I mean, whatever's in there has gotta play a part in all this." </b></span></div>

					<div class="bbWrapper">Maikoa had not really given much of a reaction to them calling her a monster, as she understood not the complications or implications of that accusation and claim. Instead, she simply walked after them in search of finding what her instincts were calling her to. As they walked deeper and deeper, she began to hug herself with her bark covered arms, looking down the way as she looked to the others to see if they had reactions. However, entering the crypt, she ignored everything in the room except that was attached to the vines, kneeling down to look at them.<br>
<br>
"These sisters of mine are corrupted.  They hunger endlessly." She said softly, looking to those in the crypt. "They seek life, but not as one usually would. They are like a glass with no bottom, the life leaks out leaving them just as empty as before. But they can't think through the hunger, they eat and eat and eat." She said softly, looking at the vines sadly. "I would not touch them if I were you. They would take everything you have and leave you a husk. Much like they have done to this town." She said, gesturing to the air as if to refer to that what was above the ground. <br>
<br>
"They must handled delicately, lest they cause further harm than now." She said softly, before standing to rejoin the others. "And I do not know if someone else is inside the coffin. I only know of what causes my sisters pain and why they cause others pain."</div>

The other monster in the room stumbled, surprised at the weight of the evil they faced. It wasn't so much she could feel it magically, more the fact of what it radiated. She backed away, her eyes moving from it to the others. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"Umm, guys? I think... I should go. It... isn't safe for you. If I stay here."</span> She continued to step back, not sure what <b>she </b>would do if she came out, but she was sure the stress from the situation, if anything happened, could very well bring her out.<br>
<br>
She took another step back, her nervousness clearly showing. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"J-just... burn it! Get rid of it somehow, I don't know! That's obviously what's causing the sickness in the city, and even if I don't take advantage of it, others might. This thing makes the city ripe for the picking, and it needs to be destroyed before others catch wind of it. Please..."</span> She seemed almost desperate at this point, like she had a personal stake in getting rid of it, but didn't dare to try to herself.​</div></div>

<br>
For the first since his time in Vegard, Ceylan had no clue how to proceed. Malerie was, oddly enough, being even more nervous than he expected someone to be. Even with how odd and dangerous this situation was, the moment she mentioned that it wasn't safe for them if she stayed, Ceylan realised she likely had some sort of ulterior motive. She was going to be more of a problem than a help in this situation, from what it looked like. She even gave part of herself away when she mentioned taking advantage of it, the meaning of which wasn't entirely clear to Ceylan, but it was ominous. Even so, Ceylan had seen enough of her good side to have a little more faith in her than she seemed to have in herself. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Whatever this is, I'm sure you're stronger than to fall for it.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde didn't exactly have to mention the gnoll situation, as that'd already been on Ceylan's mind and he'd been trying not to think of it too much. When Cayde noticed the candles were 'fresh' ones, Ceylan felt a shiver running down his spine. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“We'd best be quick.”</b></span> He tried to sound somewhat confident, but he still didn't even know what to do. <br>
<br>
Maikoa had a lot to say about it, but it was tough to make sense of her words. Ceylan tried to put all the clues together, including Cayde's suggestion that there might be something in the coffin. The curse... the angel of death... the ritual... the plant... Suddenly, it was like it all fell into place. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“That must be it!”</b></span> He said, somewhat excited despite the situation. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“If these vines are taking away life, the curse must be here to make them take it from the entire city. I bet whatever is inside the coffin makes all the life it takes...”</b></span> He wasn't sure how to put the next part of the theory into words. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“... go to the ritual? If this is done by someone that believes angels of death take life in exchange for power, this might be an attempt to gain power through usage of the plant, rather than through sacrificing someone directly. I'm not sure how that part would work, but it'd explain everything.”</b></span><br>
<br>
Putting the pieces together was one part, however, but finding a way to stop this was something entirely different. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Burning the plants might work, but that's the first thing most people would think off, so whomever set this up might have prepared something against it. We could also try to disturb the ritual... Take away the candles, place the skulls back into the crypts, take away the knife from the statue, all that kind of stuff. Perhaps that'll break the curse that's spreading the power of these vines through-out the city...”</b></span> Those were two ideas he could come up with, but there was another. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Perhaps... perhaps I could even try healing it. Healing magic is a way to give life, in a sense, so it might be a way to let life flow into it. If we feed it a lot in a short amount of time, the ritual it's tied to might not be able to handle the sudden burst of life and whatever channels it into the ritual might break.”</b></span><br>
<br>
There were also a few options Ceylan didn't come up with, such as actually trying to look into the coffin itself to see if they could do something with whatever was in there. The lid would be very heavy, but if they'd work together and were very careful not to touch the vines, they could probably push it off. Simply leaving would also be an option, but that wasn't on Ceylan's mind in the slightest. <br>
<br>
As they were still thinking, however, a weird orange-like mist started to slowly flow into the room from somewhere at the back of the dark hallway leading into it, which they'd just come from. It was too dark to see its origin. The mist almost looked like fire, but it would be cold to the touch and flow across the bottom like a morning mist instead. The visible part of the mist was proceeded by an odd fruity scent, which Malerie, being closest to the entrance/exit would be the first to pick up on. It wouldn't take long before the others would start to smell it as well. Cayde would be the first to pick-up on what this might be, as the fruity scented gas might be an alchemical nerve agent. However, it didn't check all the typical boxes, so there was likely some magic going on as well, which would make it behave different from normal. The latter meant there was a very fair chance that whomever was spreading this gas was close.<br>
<br>
Cayde's mask might help him resist it slightly longer than the others, but it wouldn't be anything considerable, as the gas was known to seep through pretty much everything. Maikoa, with slightly higher vitality, would also be able to deal with it a tad bit better. The first to feel weak on his knees was Ceylan, as he'd already been hit the hardest by the curses' effect thanks to his sixth sense. That said, it was clear they'd need to act quickly if they didn't wish to succumb to this gas.</div>

Maikoa's response was enough for Cayde to immediately back away from the vines; to think he was just seconds away from touching them sent a chill up his spine. Regardless, Cayde gave her a grateful nod, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Thanks, Maikoa. We'll try not to touch them." </b></span>With his question answered, Cayde figured it was time to find a way to get rid of the vines and, by extension, the ritual causing the outbreak. Fortunately, Ceylan had already come up with a few plans, but on the other hand, Malerie seemed incredibly anxious. Concerned, Cayde approached her, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Hey, Malerie! Look, we're all nervous, but we're <i>this </i>close to stopping this ritual." </b></span>He said with a sense of urgency, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Please, you've been with us since day one. We need you here." </b></span>Cayde wasn't sure if the pressure was getting to her or if it had something to do with her being a monster, but whatever the case, he couldn't just let her walk away. <br>
<br>
With even more stakes at hand, Cayde turned to Ceylan to quickly discuss his plan, <span style="color: null">but as he did so, he noticed a faint fruity scent forming in the air. Visibly confused, Cayde looked for the source, and eventually, his eyes skated over to the chamber's entrance, from which he saw a peculiar orange gas pour out of it. Then, Cayde inhaled through his nose, and his body immediately rejected the gas, forcing a harsh cough out and making him nauseous. In addition, Cayde could feel his mouth begin to salivate. At that moment, he realized what was happening: Someone was trying to gas them. </span><br>
<br>
Cayde waved his arms wildly, trying to catch everyone's attention, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"WAIT! Guys! Someone's trying to gas us! I-" </b></span>Another cough cut off his sentence. Cayde tried to steady his breathing, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"I-It might be some nerve gas, I dunno - but it doesn't just... flow like this, especially not underground." </span></b>He turned to the entrance and pointed down the misty hallway, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Someone must be doing this. They've gotta be down that hallway!" </b></span><br>
<br>
Cayde looked between the stone coffin and the hallway, deciding his next move. He had to help break the ritual, but with the malignant gas pouring into the crypt, he couldn't do much with it lingering around. Cayde had to stop whoever was creating it; they couldn't be too far. Cayde jerked his head to Ceylan and Malerie, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Ceylan! Uh, as you said before, maybe healing magic'll help disrupt the ritual - we've gotta try. Malerie, please, see if you can help Ceylan in any way you can." </b></span>Cayde turned to Maikoa, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Maikoa, we've gotta find whoever's doing this. We just gotta push through the gas!" </b></span>He yelled, his voice starting to waver. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Everyone, cover your mouth and nose and take small breaths!"</span></b><br>
<br>
With that, Cayde held his breath and beckoned for Maikoa to follow. Then, with torch in hand, Cayde bolted down the hallway, hopefully with Maikoa in tow.</div>

Malerie eyes widened before the monster shook her head vigorously as two of them seemed to lose some trust in her. But she couldn't fully blame them. After all, they didn't know about her... predicament. But she could try to explain, at least. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I-I'm not staying away because I'm afraid for myself."</span> Her voice dropped, almost to a whisper. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"I-I'm afraid of what will happen to you all if I stay too close to that... thing." </span><br>
<br>
As she continued to worry about her dilemma, the end result was already chosen for her as, slowly, she noticed the room filling with a strange type of gas. Before Cayde even said anything she knew it was bad news, but when he told them what it was, she ripped off a piece of her clothing, dousing the fabric with her water skin before tieing it over her mouth to protect her from the gas as best it could. As she did that, Malerie ran over, getting right next to Ceylan as she said, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"If I start acting weird, knock me out and tie me up until I stop, alright?"</span>​</div></div>

"I will have to disagree on pursuing the gaseous pouring individual. If they were trying to deal with us for being here, they would not use such a slow method that could be simply walked away from. They are most likely trying to buy a bit more time before something big happens. But I suppose there is no alternative I could find. If I used my Life blessing on these vines, it would not have the same effect as healing magic. However, it fits the description Ceylan gave to how to stop it. So I will try before I follow."

<br>
As if their situation wasn't problematic enough, the added prospect of being gassed was soon dropped on top of it. Already having way too much on his mind on top the condition he was in, Malerie kindly asked him to <s>engage in some weird fetish of hers</s> knock her out and tie her up if she were to start acting weird. Ceylan knew there was no way he'd be able to do so, especially not in this situation, but figured he'd try going along with it, as it might make her feel better. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I don't know why, but alright.”</b></span><br>
<br>
It seemed like Cayde and Malerie were both on board with the plan of healing these vines. Considering Malerie didn't have a focus of her own, Ceylan extended his staff by holding it horizontally across from him, so that they could both make use of it. It's Orichalcum properties would ensure that it could handle the magic of the both of them. That said, he already started to feel weird from the gas; as if the curse wasn't already enough. There was only so much he'd be able to handle, so he figured he could only go about this the all or nothing way. Sending as much of his healing magic into these vines at once, Ceylan laid his hand upon them. He'd never offered a [Healing Prayer] for a plant before, let alone one with such malign properties, but there was a first time for everything.<br>
<br>
Thanks to Ceylan initiating the healing, he took the brunt of the drawback from it. The vines pretty much drained him of his energy the moment he made contact, as even his high level of healing wasn't able to fully overwhelm these life-hungry plants. Malerie would feel the same kind of drain on her energy, although she'd also notice that Ceylan was bearing the brunt of it. When Ceylan passed out from the drainage, nerve-gas or curse, or perhaps just a combination of all three, it looked like she was going to be next. However, that's when Maikoa's magic backed them up. The combined magic of Ceylan's and Malerie's Healing magic, as well as Maikoa's [Life Flow] turned out to be too much for whatever the vines had been tied too.<br>
<br>
The thing didn't go down quietly. Instead, something inside the coffin exploded with enough force to sent parts of the coffin's stone through the crypt. The shock-wave blew out all candles, whilst a piece of rock flying directly upwards from the shock destroyed the light-giving crystal in the top of the room. <span style="color: red">It was now completely dark for everyone.</span> All the light sources had been taken out instantly. Furthermore, the pieces of the coffin that were violently blown up were sent flying through the crypt. Ceylan, having already passed out, escaped the blunt of it due to already laying down on the floor. Malerie and Maikoa, however, were both hit by some of the flying debris. Whilst it was by no means lethal, it'd knock the air out of them and give them a pretty considerably bruising. <br>
<br>
Now that whatever channelled the life harvested by these vines into the ritual was most definitely destroyed, they could feel the effects of the curse starting to lift as well. The vines would still be unpleasant to touch, as the life-draining properties were those of the plants themselves, but they were no longer casting their malign effects upon the space around them, nor on the entire city above them. Furthermore, the blast had been strong enough to blow the entire statue off of its feet. It was now laying broken into pieces on the ground behind them. It was pretty clear there was little to nothing left of the ritual here. (<span style="color: red">OOC:</span> Due to Maikoa aiding in the crypt first, she'd be too late to arrive near Cayde before the next events would have already played out.)<br>
<br>
Cayde, who had started running immediately after noting the gas, would realise it was getting thicker and thicker the closer he got to the entrance of the hall. It didn't take long for him to start feeling the awful feeling you normally only experienced in nightmares. He wanted to keep running, but his legs were getting too heavy to carry him. The gas, being even stronger in presence here, was clearly getting to him. Even so, he managed to press on, albeit slower than before and with a lot more effort. He eventually saw the shape of someone that had to be behind all this. However, the strangely manipulated gas got even thicker around him, slowing him down enough to make him unable to reach the man.<br>

The strange opponent didn't say anything, merely swaying a lantern around to cause even more gas to flow towards the others. With his other hand, he held a staff that he brought upwards. It looked like he was planning to bring down it on Cayde while he was succumbing to the properties of the gas. He'd been able to hold out longer than most would've been able too, but it still wasn't enough. However, an explosion further down the hall distracted the stranger. Just before the explosion took out all sources of light, Cayde could see a a look of frustration upon him. Then the lantern was blown out by the force of the explosion, along with all other sources of light. <br>
<br>
For a while, it would be dark and eerily silent. Cayde could vaguely hear footsteps leaving, likely that of the one behind all this. With the gas still in his veins and no source of light, it'd be a foolish if not outright impossible endeavour to pursue him. Before long, it was completely silent. The curses' effects had already mostly receded and the gas was doing so as well. They wouldn't have any light until Malerie, the only one possessing something to start a fire with, would find and light up one of the candles used in the ritual (unless someone took the tinderbox from Ceylan whilst he was still out for the count). <br>
<br>
Whether they would consider this outcome a success or failure was up to them, but the basic task had been fulfilled. The city would no longer be under the influence of the curse that kept making everyone in it fall ill. With the blast destroying a significant part of this crypt, it wasn't likely for the one behind all this to return either, but he'd gotten away from them and left them in pretty bad states. It'd take a while for the gas to fully leave their bodies and for them to be able to move freely again. Until then, their movement would feel heavy, sluggish and weak. With Ceylan still out for the count, it'd be up to the other three to decide on their next move.</div>

Cayde continued to push through the malevolent gas, but the further he moved forwards, the more his vision obscured and the weaker he became. Soon enough, his mask failed to filter out the poison, and with every breath, his eyes watered, and his lungs seared with pain. Still, even as his sprinting was reduced to a crawl, Cayde inched forwards, and eventually, he spotted a figure further in the gas. But, through teary eyes, he couldn't see much of the stranger - nor the staff they were about to strike him with. Even as he tried to get a better look, Cayde couldn't move a muscle; whether it was his body failing or the stranger's influence didn't matter. All he knew now was that his fate rested in their hands.<br>
<br>
However, before thoughts of regret could fill his head, he heard an explosion behind him. Too weak to even look back, Cayde slowly craned his head to see the stranger, catching a slight glimpse of their face before all light was extinguished around him. Not soon after, he heard feet quickly escape the scene. With the stranger's retreat, Cayde could feel the gas dissipate around him, and as somewhat-fresh air started to re-fill his lungs, Cayde fervently probed for the straps on his mask, ripping it off him. Cayde gasped and wheezed; he wasn't sure what the others did back there, but whatever it was, it saved him his life. <br>
<br>
Though still weak, Cayde slowly came to his feet and turned around to face where he came. His eyes still stung, and he couldn't discern anything in the darkness, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"C-Ceylan? Malerie? Maikoa?" </b></span>He wheezed feebly, slowly returning to the chamber, <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"Are all of you okay? Did anyone get hurt?"</span></b></div>

Malerie was flung back from the explosion, her body hitting the ground and rolling into a wall. Everything ached as blood dripped to the floor from the slices left by the shrapnel. She looked at the surroundings with bleary eyes, seeing the crypt was destroyed, and feeling the curse leaving her. That gave her just enough strength to stand, mouth still covered by the wet fabric. She looked to the two others who were with her, the girl's gaze fixed upon the man.<br>
<br>
Slowly she wobbled over, reaching out to pick up his staff with shaky hands. She held it in her grip, weakly pressing it against the priest and feeling her power flowing through it into him, enough to give him strength and to wake him, as she said, <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"H-hey, don't give out on us just yet. You think that we'll be able to get into the city again without you? They're gonna think me and tree girl decided to have a post victory snack if you're not around!"</span><br>
<br>
The joke wasn't the best, but with the gas in the room, she wasn't going to pass up on any messed up humor that could lift their spirits. And as for the truth of the statement, maybe not the normal people, but she was positive that the priest in the town would try and pull a fast one on her if Ceylan wasn't around.​</div></div>

Ceylan was completely out of it until Malerie healed him back up. Considering his only 'wound' was the fact he'd completely drained whatever magical energy he had in a single burst, having a little bit of it flow into him from someone else did the job. He definitely didn't feel great, but he was conscious and everything was still working, albeit a lot more painfully than before.<br>
<br>
He wasn't clear-headed enough to get Malerie's joke, but he did catch her talking about getting into the city. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Thank you.”</b></span> He said, as he got up and blinked a few times. When the darkness didn't clear up, he realized it wasn't his vision that was failing him, but the fact that they were in complete darkness. His tinderbox was still where he left it, but he couldn't find the candles in his pack. The explosion likely had ripped it open and made its contents scatter. After feeling around until he ended up <s>inappropriately grabbing Malerie</s> finding a candle from the ritual, he managed to light up the candle and reveal the impact they'd had on this place.<br>
<br>
The toppled-over statue, destroyed coffin, scattered skulls, strewn-about candles and destroyed crystal-light would probably puzzle any archaeologist for the coming few ages. The vines were still there, probably in need of a 'do not touch' sign, but at least they were no longer actively harvesting the life out of the entire city above them. After looking around for a bit, Ceylan found more candles that were still in good enough condition to light up, so that the others could use them and to light up a bit more of the place in general. He realised Cayde had asked for their well-being as he was doing so. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'm still in one piece... I think we all are, luckily. Did you see who was trying to gas us?”</b></span><br>
<br>
Ceylan would automatically set to work gathering up the skulls used in the ritual. To his regret, some of them were cracked from the blast... He hoped the dead would forgive them. The least they could do was to put their remains back in a proper part of the crypt, which was what he was planning to do. He also managed to somewhat tie his backpack back together. He'd have to get it properly fixed later on, but it'd hold for now. He then recalled Malerie mentioned the city. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I don't think it's a good idea to try getting back into the city. When the priest told us these caves stretch underneath the water towards the mainland, I'm pretty sure that was his way of telling us to get out and never return. Well, for you two to never return in particular, I'm afraid. You might have helped these people enough for them to tolerate a monster in their midsts, but they wouldn't be able to explain such a thing to the rest of the country. They'd risk their own safety if they were to be convicted of harbouring and working with a monster, so returning there might do them more harm than good, now that the diseases should have been stopped from spreading.”</b></span> After a bit of thinking, Ceylan did have one idea. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I could return to the city with Cayde to confirm everyone is well, while you wait outside of it, if you want us to do so, but for now, we should clean up this mess and find our way out of here.”</b></span><br>
<br>
He was putting his words into action as he continued collecting skulls and brought them over to the closest intact part of the crypt to lay them to rest properly and with some prayers for rest and peace. As he was gathering the skulls, he also found one particular item; the dagger the statue had been holding. It wasn't part of the original statue, that much was clear, but it didn't look like it had been the catalyst for the vines either. It was made of an odd blackened metal and probably wouldn't be of any use in combat, but he figured he'd take it in for evidence. Perhaps it'd give them a clue towards whomever did this. That said, after cleaning up as best as he could and offering a final prayer, it was time to head out again.<br>
<br>
Going with the earlier plan of following the natural parts of the crypts would start leading them away form the city. Some parts were partially flooded, forcing them to wade through the water. Other parts were inaccessible due to cave-ins, forcing them to turn back around. Some parts were only accessible through ramshackle looking wooden ladders. All in all, there were plenty moments for Cayde to his his survival knowledge to help them get around a little bit faster and better. Eventually, they'd manage to make their way back to what seemed to be the cave's entrance. By now, they were a fair bit away from the city and it was clear that it was already getting dark again. They'd been in the crypts and caves for the full day.<br>

With the last of sunlight setting, Ceylan gave a tired sigh. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Well, what we do now all depends on what you guys think is best.”</b></span> He was still tired from the events, so part of him just wanted to throw his bedroll down and sleep, but this might not exactly be the best place to get a good night's rest. Then again, going back into the city with two monsters in town would be an even worse plan.</div>

As Cayde stumbled further into the ruined chamber, its utter destruction was the first thing that caught his eye. The suppressing statue was devasted, toppled over, and the coffin, or at least what remained of it, was utterly devasted. Cayde's eyes widened with shock - the plan went well, but maybe a bit too well. Regardless, Cayde was relieved to see that the others were okay. With his worries gone, Cayde answered Ceylan's query, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"I couldn't really make out much of them because of the gas, but I did catch a glimpse of their face..."</b></span> Cayde trailed, taking a moment to gather his thoughts. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"They were a beast, just like everyone else in this city, but their face looked more man than animal. They had these two red ears - maybe a fox or a wolf, I'm not sure. I think they had red hair too, but that's all I can remember." </span></b><br>
<br>
After giving his description, Cayde quietly listened to Ceylan's talk to Malerie. When Ceylan finished, a frown formed on Cayde's face. Malerie had assisted them since the beginning, and not even she could get the credit she deserved, all just because she was a monster. Cayde shook his head, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Look, Malerie, monster or not, you've helped so much and then some. Hell, you, Maikoa, and Ceylan saved my life back there! I don't care what they say about monsters, I thank you and Maikoa from the bottom of my heart." </b></span>He then turned to Ceylan, who was already getting the crypt in order, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"With that said, let's go help Ceylan." </b></span><br>
<br>
When everything was said and done, Cayde helped lead the group through the caverns, eventually making way towards an entrance. The trek had left him tired, and all Cayde wanted to do now was rest. Still, as exhausted as he was, Cayde was wary. Though he had only heard them leave, Cayde still believed that stranger was stalking the crypts, waiting to catch them off guard. Whether his assumption was true or false didn't matter, Cayde did not want to fall asleep in these caves. <b><span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)">"I think we all can use a little rest," </span></b>Cayde said flatly, <span style="color: rgb(124, 112, 107)"><b>"Let's find an exit and set up camp there. I don't wanna stay in these caves any longer..."</b></span></div>

The monster looked from the priest to the alchemist, her face falling at the thought. "W-well, I would have much preferred being able to at least say goodbye to some of the folks in the city, but if it would cause more problem than it's worth, I understand the need to go without." She looked at the others in the group, her face still somewhat crestfallen, with the lady doing her best to wipe her sadness away. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"T-thanks, Cayde."</span> She looked down at the ground and at the still somewhat visible gas that had almost pooled on the ground around them. <span style="color: rgb(226, 80, 65)">"We should get out of here. The gas hasn't completely gone, and it's better if we aren't exposed to it any longer."</span> She followed Cayde out, looking around to make sure no more surprises popped out.​</div></div>

Ceylan had merely nodded at Cayde's description of the enemy. He didn't recognize any of it. Luckily enough, the enemy didn't show himself again. He'd likely decided confronting them wasn't worth it after his ritual was already thoroughly destroyed and with everyone needing to recover and Ceylan cleaning up the crypt, he'd gotten more than enough time to make a run for it. Upon Cayde's suggestion, they ended up setting up camp a little outside the caves, after finding the exit/entrance of this cave system. <br>
<br>
<div style="text-align: center"><b><span style="font-size: 18px"><span style="color: #00BFFF">Ceylan </span><br>

Before going to sleep, however, Ceylan did share a few more words with Malerie. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“Listen, I'm sorry about before. If I were in your shoes, I'd really want to go check up on everyone as well. It's just... Difficult. If it was just my personal standing, I might take the risk, but it's everyone in the city that'd be put at risk. It's harsh, but people don't know any better than that all monsters are the pinnacle of everything evil, so it'd be really difficult to explain that you're different. It's probably going to be like that wherever you go and I wish I could do something about it, but I'm not in any place to do so, I'm afraid... I'm sorry for that.”</b></span> He hated to be the bringer of bad news and the enforcer of rules that he personally believed shouldn't be applicable to Malarie, but in the bigger picture, he really feared it wouldn't be good for her or Maikoa to re-enter the city. <span style="color: #00BFFF"><b>“I'll promise I'll do whatever I can tomorrow and to make sure that everyone is okay. Then we'll return here to inform you.”</b></span><br>
<br>
With that promise made, it was time to settle in for the night. With the curse gone and after such an exhausting day, Ceylan slept like a log. <br>
<br>
The next day, Ceylan and Cayde would find both bridge guards standing guard upon walking across the bridge. They were already looking better than before. Ceyalnd and Cayde would also soon meet up with the others. Even Preston was there, who seemed to be in a good mood upon spotting they were in monster-less company. Preston immediately showed them the way to some patients that hadn't started to heal yet, but with Ceylan's and Preston's magic and miss Nana's medical knowledge, they soon assured everyone in the city would recover. <br>
<br>
It was already late in the afternoon when they returned to Maikoa and Malerie. However, they weren't alone. <br>

Miss Nana came running at the Nevermore at full speed. She'd clearly fully recovered. With a mighty hop, she jumped straight into Malerie's arms for a heartfelt hug. <span style="color: #7CFC00"><b>“You did it! We did it!

A bit more behind and a lot more awkwardly, someone else followed.<br>

<span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“Eh... the mayor gives his regards and apologises for not being able to meet you personally. He can't be associated with a monster, but says he feels horrible about not being able to properly thank the ones that saved his life. He begs you for his forgiveness...”</b></span> After an awkward pause, he continued. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“...and ehh, I'd like to thank you as well. We heard the two of you are monsters, but it's difficult to believe. All they normally want is to destroy all other species, so it's really strange how you two are different...”</b></span> He quickly realised his awkward words. <span style="color: #D3D3D3"><b>“I mean, I'm really grateful you are! You saved your lives! It's just, odd, is what I'm trying to say, like, the good kind of odd!”</b></span><br>
<br>
It seemed like a crying bunny lady and an awkward old hare were the only ones to come say their farewells, but the knowledge that they had saved this city from a terrible fate was hopefully comforting enough to know they'd done a great job. <br>
<br>
From there, they'd likely split up. Ceylan was asked to stay a few more days by Preston, as they'd go through various religious rituals. This was, after all, the Holy City of Vegard. Cayde was welcome to stay and rest, although he'd probably just get bored out of his mind if he did so. Malerie and Maikoa would have to move on, but they (and Malarie in particular) had earned the gratitude of a lot of citizens. Perhaps their oddly good behaviour for individuals with a [monster] title would be the start of something bigger, or perhaps it'd end up being seen as nothing more than an odd fever-dream-like exception. Only time could tell. <br>

A very meaty and developed plot line. Rather than a thin string of bread crumbs with an obvious conclusion, this mystery had well tread lines and unknown endpoint. Some of it made me wonder if it would be a worth while thing to create skill trees where the skills for secondary knowledge could be specialized in. The prospect of beastman health vs fae health vs human health is something I have not seen explored often. Of the healing related stories I have read, only about 2 of them considered the various health needs of the differing types of fantasy folk. It is so easy to handwave everything with 'magic heals', but there would seem to be a space for proper medical study and investigation, even in a fantasy world.<br>
Another rp where 'combat', if it could be called that, was handled light and loose. Not an issue, but generally not how world rps will be handled.<br>
Should be noted most races of the world are recognizeable on sight by world natives. Title scanners can help sleuth out the shapeshifting types easier, but their main purpose if criminal title checking. It is good the monsters were gotten out of town before order and health were restored.<br>
<br>
<b>Afterward</b><br>
Vegard was saved. The dead would be remembered and join their ancestors while the living would carry their memory and help them persist through the generations. Despite the efforts of Ceylan and crew, the local church would take full credit for the achievement. Attendance and membership for the churches in Vegard increased to numbers thought impossible for the small holy city.<br>
Cayde and Ceylan would be welcomed back to the town anytime by the locals, but their relationship with monsters put them at odds with the local church claiming to have saved the town. In exchange for letting things slide, Ceylan would be granted additional funds for his missionary efforts by his home parish.<br>
Malerie was assumed to be a fever dream by many and Maikoa was believed to be partially responsible for the plague despite their more recent arrival to the city.<br>
<br>
<b>Ceylan </b>- 84 point (narration) - optional title acquired [Wandering Saint] - character is a wanderer that brings healing and wellbeing wherever they go. While the stories told by the people generally exceed reality, the faithful aware of who the character is consider them truth and are more hospitable to the character in hopes of being blessed.<br>
<br>
<b>Cayde </b>- 56 points - optional title acquired [Honorary Beastman] - despite character being of a different racial tree, they helped out many beastmen. Those aware of character's deeds will treat them more favorably. Racist members of the tree will be more likely to see the character as one not so bad. Tolerant members of the race will be more likely to treat character as one of their kind.<br>
<br>
<b>Malerie </b>- 40 points - optional title acquired [Nightmare Medic] - character provided a lot of aid to those who likely would not have accepted it had they not been in clearer state of mind. Rumors will follow character of a haunting figure that appears to those in their hour of need offering to mend their flesh in exchange for their soul. <br>
<br>
<b>Maikoa </b>- 12 points - optional title acquired [Plague Spreader] - character has been publicly associated with the spreading of disease that claims lives. Settlements will be especially wary of those with similarities to character appearance. Character less likely to be attacked in the wild for being a monster due to fear of contagion. Character will be more quickly identified and forcibly  driven away from settlements with extreme prejudice.</div>
