===== Recap =====

  * The other girls stash the prisoner in the closet for the time being.
  * After discussing what to do with him, they haul him out and wake him up.

  * Elesandra manages to dispel the magic and summons a small tree-like creature that channels the prisoners voice without allowing him to chant magic spells.
  * The girls question him but he returns very cunning responses and twists their words. He professes loyalty to someone, unknown. He tells them that the "all powerful" is coming soon.
  * While they are pondering over his words he manages to break the bonds of the rope and pushes a small metal symbol into Sharn. Sharn's bones begin to shatter but she manages to withstand the intense physical magic. It did not seem to be a spell that he chanted but the power flowed directly from the sigil. Sharn punches him in the face, breaking his jaw and knocking him out.
  * Sharn and Firia try to get a city guard to come back to their place. The guard doesn't want to leave his comfy post and refuses.

  * The next day they decide to investigate the crypt. It has been cleaned out, and the altar has been smashed to rubble.
