"There are many sources of such... power. Perhaps it is a divine gift to be used in such a dark time as we find ourselves in now."


The paladin listens to the man's frantic words carefully considering the implications. "There is far more to you than what you see. You fear you are possessed but I've only heard tales of your bravery and courage in the dark. You worry that what ever dark arts were preformed on you tainted you in some way, but I sense no evil within you. No malevolent force coerces you. Darkness surrounds us, yet you have chosen to offer yourself up as a sacrifice to try and stem its tide. There is not a doubt in my mind that you are a good person Jokum. We need you now more than ever. "


"Exorcism, execution? Do you believe yourself to be possessed?"


While you eat everyone eagerly listens to the details of your time beneath the city. Irabeth explains, "After the death of many of the commanders up at the Cathedral I am now in charge of the Eagle Watch, at least, until the Mendevian army arrives to help reclaim the city. I knows that word got out about the attack, but Nerosyan and other cities along the border are facing their own plights-so far."

"I cannot tell you how much it pleases me to hear that the "First Decedents will aid us against the onslaught of demons, I'll dispatch a group of knights to finalize the arrangements in the morning."

"Fear not, for none of the other border cities have suffered as great a defeat as Kenabres, and while our city's wardstone has been destroyed and that as a result, the remaining network of wardstones remains though has diminished in power to a shadow of its former strength."

"I thank Iomedae daily for the our enemy's destructive treachery. Had the demons made as focused an attack on Nerosyan as they did on Kenabres, things would be dire indeed."

At the mention the Templars and their safe houses, Irabeth becomes very interested. The Templars of the Ivory Labyrinth are, in her opinion, one of the most dangerous elements of the
enemy. " They have spies everywhere," she says, " and have apparently been among us for decades. Only recently has proof of their presence been manifesting. I personally managed to root out one oft heir more powerful members the leader of a group called the Hammers of Heaven. We all thought of Staunton Vhane as a model crusader, but as far as I was able to discern, he's been working for the demons for decades. There's even evidence he may have been the one to betray Drezen 75 years ago. They knighted me for that discovery, but I'm still not sure why, since he slipped through my fingers and is out there still, causing who knows how much more damage ... " Irabeth trails off here for a moment before she shakes her head to clear her thoughts. " You seem to have some experience with him as well master dwarf. If you can rot them out from these safe-houses I'll find some way to reward such service to our cause. "

There are enough merchants in the place that the PCs can even sell off their unwanted treasure and purchase new gear and supplies-you can assume that anything costing 100gp or less is readily available for purchase, and that anything beyond that up to a maximum of 2,500gp has a 75% chance of being available for sale.

That said, there are many low-level clerics and paladins of Iomedae, Sarenrae, and Torag present, and they provide healing free of charge-any PC who has hit point damage or ability score damage can have that damage healed for free during a stay here.


"That we don have plenty of. Not much good in a fight for the most part but the novices can heal most minor injuries."


"Then once you have rested and filled your bellies I would implore you to clear out these dens of villainy. I can't spare the men at the moment, but I do have coin I can reward you with. We also have many merchants who have taken refuge here. If you have good to trade with them I know they can pay with good coin."


"Yes, many of the Templars openly attacked their fellow crusaders as soon as the demons burst into the city. Some were slain but many have escaped justice. I had hoped to wait to request your aid in eliminating this treat until after you had eaten and recovered but your hearts must burn fervently for justice as mine."


"It is truly a pleasure to meet all of you. You have my thanks for returning Anevia to me. You look quite bettered come inside, we have beds and more importantly food."

She gestures for you to enter the Inn.

No sign of them here Jokum. Also there are plenty of lvl 1-2 clerics to cast as many CLW spell as you could want.


The largest inn in Kenabres is Defender's Heart-a stout stone structure that survived the fall of Kenabres with ease.
Built to last and largely ignored by the initial demonic attack (which focused much more on Old Kenabres and the riverfront), Defender's Heart was a perfect choice as a place for surviving crusaders and veterans of the war to gather and form a sort of defensive line.

Alert guards are posted at every third window in the large structure. The guards recognize Anevia as their commander's wife and immediately grant the party entrance. Anevia lets out a joyful cry as Irabeth appears, quickly coming to greet her once word of her return spreads. The women embrace tenderly before Anevia introduces her wife, Irabeth. Irabeth thanks you for keeping Anevia safe and swears to assist you in whatever way she can.

"Praise the Inheritor your alive! Please introduce me to these valiant warriors who have returned you to me!"


"There is but one way to know for certain..."


"While the Tower is closer, it is also in the Ring District. The demons have fortified the center of the city as their own stronghold. I would recommend heading for the Topaz Solutions. Perhaps you will even find useful supplies in the Alchemy shop. " Irabeth give you a wry smile.


Irabeth replies to Oliver's question coolly. "The Templars look like you or me, they infiltrated our ranks, sowed corruption and indolence through out the crusaders. Likely though they'll have little time for any reaming deception. As much as I hate to say it, it may be better to strike without warning against any the remain outside of these walls. At least any that threaten you. Demons walk the very streets and only those with hearts as black as theirs are spared. While there are a few survivors holed up in varying locations, most will stay away from anyone for the time being.

"The day is still young and if we delay the Templars may find away to escape justice.

"I thank lomedae daily for the our enemy's selfdestrutive trechery. Had the demons made as focused an attack on Nerosyan as they did on Kenabres, things would be dire indeed."
