Cellawyn steps forward and slams her steel tipped boot into Hearthmount’s head – knocking the man unconscious with a heavy thud. ”I’ve heard enough of his ravings. It appears that the town’s leadership has been compromised by the Whispering Way. ”
Cellawyn then pauses to pull Sariana to her feet.
”As an officer in the Ustalavic army, with the people in this room as witnesses, I charge Hearthmount with treason and I command that he be removed from power and restrained in the town jail until a proper trial can be convened. I will now take control of Ravengro until army reinforcements can arrive from Caliphas.”
She turns to Aliseya, Naught and Zelda, ”My dear friends, the time has come for us to part ways. I must focus on saving Ravengro’s citizens and organizing the town’s remaining defenses. I will need you to return to Harrowstone to rescue Kendra, stop the cultists, and cleanse the prison of undead. You must destroy the remaining ghosts if you are to save the town. The fate of Ravengro hangs in the balance!”
She then turns to the phantom hovering over Hearthmount. ”Ysmerelda, as you were a soldier in life, so again you will be a soldier in death. The Gods have brought you to this boy for a reason. The boy, the magus and the ghost rider are now part of the pattern that links us together in a greater cause. A cause, I fear, that transcends Ravengro, and possibly the nation of Ustalav.”
Finally, Cellawyn turns to Sariana, Grey and Govannon, ”Welcome, my new friends. I am Lt. Cellawyn Cayentelva. I look forward to the day where I may fight at your side, but for now, I ask that you put aside your current endeavors and join my friends as they attempt to save Ravengro in its hour of need. I will allow my friends to introduce themselves.”
Cellawyn then begins binding up Hearthmount and Vordish. ”I will take care of these two. I recommend that you all rest here tonight and prepare for the challenges ahead of you tomorrow. God speed my friends!”
She then kicks Vordish to his feet and commands him to drag Hearthmount behind her. Cellawyn draws her rapier and then smiles at you one last time as she disappears into the night with her prisoners.

Round 3
Cellawyn enters the room from a different door and moves to the prone Hearthmount and kicks him hard in the face with her studded leather jack boot - spraying blood over Sariana. "Surrender Hearthmount, we have you surrounded!"

The warm ambiance of the oracle's touch mends most of Cellawyn's wounds. "Thank you Aliseya ... I think I can keep going. I will have my vengeance on that poltergeist."

Hey everyone. Ulrik has graciously agreed to allow me to GM until he can step back in. I have some table top GMing experience (*cough* ... in the 90's), but I think I've been playing PbP long enough that I should be able to fumble my way through. Anyway, let me know if you have any concerns. Otherwise, I'll get the council hall encounter started in a couple of days once I get organized.

Cellawyn turns and addresses the crowd, "As the council woman says, we plan to return to Harrowstone to stop the haunting. We will lay these spirits to rest, once and for all. Until then, stay in your homes and keep your families safe."
Cellawyn turns back to the council, "Unless you have further instruction for us, I request your leave to return to Harrowstone at once."

Cellawyn raises her eyebrow at the charges and then stands and addresses the council, "Though I am no friend of these priests of Pharasma, I would have the town council know that these priests are not responsible for the recent supernatural occurrences within Ravengro. We have reason to believe that the recent evils are caused by the lingering malevolence within Harrowstone. I cannot speak to the other crimes that the priests are accused of, but the haunting of Reavengro is caused by ghosts of ancient killers whom still wander the ruined prison. I would ask the court to research our claims before condemning these men to death. More importantly, I would ask the council to mobilize the town's defenses against the rising evil within Harrowstone."

Cellawyn nods at Zelda. "We must all draw upon our inner strength. You all displayed great courage and ability the last time we were in Harrowstone. We will need to do so again to suppress this malignant evil."
Cellawyn pauses and listens, "I believe the town council is getting ready to start the meeting. Shall we join them?"

Cellawyn arrives at the town hall and surveys the arriving people for any sign of a threat.
Perception:1d20 + 3 ⇒ (18) + 3 = 21
Upon seeing Kendra and the others, Cellawyn will join them and will ask about the information they've learned. She nods as the others recount their research, "The history of Harrowstone prison is more troubled than I imagined. No wonder there is so much residual negative energy. I fear that we must return to completely cleanse the evil."

Cellawyn nods with resignation and continues her drills. "I will practice up to the minute that I need to leave for the council meeting. I value your instruction, but I cannot endanger this town."
True to her word, Cellawyn will leave at the appropriate time.

Cellawyn does as instructed. After thoroughly practicing, she bids farewell to Quendil, "Thank you for the lessons, sir. I have pressing business to attend to in town. There is a council meeting to discuss the Harrowstone crisis. I must make sure they understand the gravity of the situation."
Cellawyn then heads back to Kendra's house before setting off to the council meeting with the others.

Cellawyn cautiously avoids the Church of Pharasma as she travels to the aspen woods.
Upon spying the fellow elf, Cellawyn pauses and watches him a couple moments, attempting to glean the meaning of the strange ceremony.
Perception:1d20 + 2 ⇒ (5) + 2 = 7
Cellawyn then gathers her resolve and approaches the elf, keeping her hands in plain sight. She addresses him using the high elven tongue, "Sir, are you the one called Quendil? I am Lt. Cellawyn Cayentelva of the Ustalav army. I am currently investigating the ruined prison of Harrowstone. My team has confirmed that dark forces gather in the prison. I come to you seeking information and any assistance that you can provide."

Cellawyn nods at Kendra, "Thank you for the grimoire and the information."
She turns to the others. "With your leave, I would like to seek out this other elf and see if he can be of assistance. I should be back by lunch. We should plan to attend the council meeting tonight. Perhaps the city leadership has finally awoken to the danger of Harrowstone."

Cellawyn wipes the sweat from her brow with a shaking hand, "The evil of this place has become oppressive. We must regroup and regain our resolve. Let us return to Kendra's house at once. Be brave Ysmeralda, we shall persevere."

Cellayn recovers her composure and then nods to Aliseya, "Well done. Your positive energy was able to drive away the malicious spirit."
She recovers her rapier and then turns to the group, "It's best if we return to town to regroup. Today we took a step forward in destroying the evil that haunts this prison."

Cellawyn nods to Bolo and accepts the mace from Mirelinza. She then turns to look at the group, "We need to find the source of the dirge. Let's ignore the skeletons for now, unless they break free."

Cellawyn checks on the condition of both Bolo and Ysmerelda. "Bolo, can you channel Pharasma's energy to heal yourself and Ysmerelda? Are you able to continue on?"
Cellawyn nervously watches the skeletons as she looks around for a blunt object that she can use as a bludgeoning weapon.

Cellawyn nods at Bolo, "Yes, we're going back in. When we first explored Harrowstone, Zelda and myself climbed up the balcony, where we found an alternate entrance into the prison. To be sure we avoid the ghost, let's climb up the balcony and use the side door. Aliseya, are you able to proceed?"

Cellawyn turns to Bolo, "You see, this is why we need the magic items from that false crypt. With those weapons, we could fight back against that ghost."
She turns to the others, "We must select a different route if we are going to proceed. Once things are quiet in the hall I suggest we explore the room opposite of the Cathedral"

Cellawyn walks out through the doors into the foyer. Once the others are safely through, she closes the door behind them. "Calm down everyone. We need to regroup and press on. There must be a way to defeat that ghost."
Cellawyn thinks back to her training with professor Lorrimor on how to fight incorporeal creatures.

Cellawyn nods at Bolo, "Let us proceed then. There were several doors in the main hallway that we should clear before moving forward. We don't want to allow anything to get behind us."
Cellawyn opens S2.11, S2.10 and S2.9 in turn. She carefully listens at each door before opening it.

Cellawyn nods at Zelda and then moves to the chapel door, "Yes Bolo, I believe the chapel is dedicated to Pharasma. Be on guard, there is strong negative energy in these ruins."
