"I last saw Thamior back when all of this happened," Cleric Aramil answers, shrugging. "As I said, he disappeared abruptly one night and I haven't seen hide nor hair of him since then, and thank gods for that. He used to live...you know, I'm not really sure. He kept to himself a lot. But I think we should follow up on the lead we already have, about the poison, right?" Aramil sighs. "I...I guess that if the worst comes to the worst, I might find it in myself to team up with those blasted clerics of Lathander. I hate Thamior more than all of them combined, and I can exact my vengeance on them another day. I'm sure that if we work together, the clerics of Lathander and the clerics of Corellon Larethian can find a cure to this poison, whatever it is."
"Hello, Sister Qillathe." The sound of a male Elven voice. "Ah, Brother Quarion. What can I do for you, sir?" The sound of a female Elven voice. "Nothing in particular, I'm just here to collect the tithings for the day. And you?" "I'm inscribing Cleric Aramil's prayer for tomorrow." You hear the shuffling of papers. "He is a good leader, but I don't think he could write neatly if his life depended on it." There is the sound of laughter, both male and female. "Well, I should be on my way," the male voice says, and you hear the sound of feet approaching the door. It's opened abruptly and you see a tall(for an Elf) male elf in cleric's vestments with a locked box in one hand. Behind him stands a young female elf in acolyte's garb. "What are you doing?" demands the cleric who must be Quarion. "Eavesdropping?"
I agree, but that means we're gonna have to go back to the well, and get some. I suppose I could do it real quick, and come back just as quickly. I assume I have some kind of container I can use to collect a sample of the water?
Cleric Aramil lends you a waterskin to carry the sample in. You go and quickly get a sample, then return. "Yes...there is poison in this," Aramil says, looking worried, after casting a minor divine spell. "The question is, what does it do? And how many of us has it infected?"
I feel there is a more sinister force at work here, something worse than a mere murderer, I fear we face some kind of evil cult. We need to find out more information before it's too late. If everyone has drinked from the well water, we may be in serious trouble. Is there any way to counter or at least identify this poison?
This reminds me of a song, which makes no sense to me, since it has nothing to do with what's going on:
Well hello there little boy. Now don't be shy. Step right up, I'm a reasonable guy. Don't be frightened by the look in my eye. I'm just your average evil meteor from outta the sky. Well, I'm just shy and scared in this place I'm just a fish outta water from outer space You can see that the trip has left me tired and drained So why don't you be a pal...
And bring me some BRAINS!
Go down to your neighbor's place See the dull expression on his face You'd be doing him a favor if you brought him to me He aint using his brain he's just watching TV! Go down to Mr. McGee's He hasn't had a thought since '43. His brain is the portrait of atrophy. He ain't using it, why not give it to me?
BRAINS, BRAINS, I won't lie, I'll eat their brains 'til they're zombified. Sure they might think it's deranged But they won't give it a thought After I've eaten they're brain. BRAINS, BRAINS, It's okay. It's not a matter if it isn't gray, And if at first they thinks it's strange, They won't think twice If they don't have a brain!
