Rixon looks up to address Geran from where he kneels beside the woman, You misunderstand. I killed him because he kept this woman beaten and bloodied in a sack. However, I appreciate that it was easy. I allow room in my heart for repentance, but they ran. Rixon shrugs, Their souls were not regretful.

As I said, I can track that one. I have marked him.

He turns back to the woman, Tell us, what happened? Were those evil men?

"They knew the risks, Geran. If they valued their lives, they wouldn't had acted so foolishly. Cowards, they are. Justice was served quickly and painlessly to that one as far as I see it." I nod approvingly at Rixon.

Geran fights back his anger, and instead of replying, he immediately dashes off after the other man.

I roll my eyes. "We'll need to have a long conversation with Bethene once we're all done here."

"I have to agree with Xaar and Rixon here. If they had any remorse, then they would have surrendered willingly. Instead they chose to run, and this is the end result." He crosses his arms.

The woman looks up at you and opens her mouth as if to speak. What comes out is elvish, of a sort. Looking more closely, you can tell that her teeth are almost all missing, making it difficult to get the words out.
[ +- ] Elvish
Is all she can manage to get out before her eyes flutter and close, her chest rising in falling in shallow breaths.

Geran, by the time you make the passage entrance, you cannot see the man any more.

Survival - (1d20+4)

(2) + 4 = 6

OOC:
Realizing just now that I never picked languages! It wouldn't make sense for Rixon to know elvish given his background. I'll update the character sheet.
Rixon is unable to understand her words but he understands the emotion behind them. He lays a hand on her brow and pours healing light into her, trying to ease her physical pain, at least. They'll pay. I promise.

What did she say? Did anyone understand?

Forgot to mention, mechanically: using 5 hp from Lay on Hands to heal her.

As Rixon gently lays a hand on the woman, a pulse of healing magic flows out from him and seems to have a little bit of effect. Some of the bruises fade a bit, and her eyes seem to return to normal.

"They did wrong by her and her family. This is unforgivable. What else can you tell us? We'll do what we can."

Geran grits his teeth, spins on his heel, and goes back to the cave.

Kaio grimaces. "It bears not repeating," he says, keeping a measured tone with difficulty. "She was used most ill. My belief that the death of these men was just is all the more strengthened."

I don’t think we can ask her to walk, Rixon says to his cohort, But I need to find that man. I guess we’ll have to split up for the moment?

What do you all think? Some stay here at the cave with her, and learn where she’s from and what she knows. We can help her to wherever she wants to go when she’s recovered. Also guard that treasure we now know belonged to these devils. That, the harem would be glad to have.

I’ll follow the runner. If there is in fact a larger encampment, I’ll find it and return for reinforcements. Anyone with me?

"I can go wherever you need me, Rixon."

Geran stands at the entrance as they're hashing things out. He looks at the elvish woman, and gets an idea. She must've witnessed a lot of what their operation is like. I may not have succeeded in gathering info from the others, but she might be willing to help? Hopefully years of Elvish lessons as a young boy will come in handy, thanks to fathers command. he walks over to the others first. I apologize for my actions- I do not care if those men live, but I do care that they receive proper justice. I can now see the damage done, and can safely say that they have what's coming for them. I promise to explain my plans from now on, and will not act in an amateur fashion. he takes a deep breath, As a matter of fact, I ask that I may stay here with the woman while you track the men down. My magical reservoir is depleted, and I must rest- so I will indeed watch her. I do ask of you to please take time to get to know me, and I you to strengthen our bond of fellowhip. I feel we will act more exceptional as a group if we do so. he turns to the woman and kneels down, offering a smile, and speaks calmly in Elvish,

Kaio stands quietly by, observing. "I can fill either role," he says, indifferent, "though I can move more quickly than most so my help may be of use to Rixon."
