#81791, "Rylwaequarth's Role Chapter 5"

RoleChapter 5 Curiosity does, no less than devotion, pilgrims make. (III) Added Fri May 14 13:04:41 2021 at level 22:Being of a singular focus regarding his unraveling of this conspiracy, it took only a couple of days to quietly dispatch Jomved's allies. Still, though, there was a missing piece of the puzzle that only Jomved himself could now fill in. Ryl had to know the answer, he could not rest without it. Jomved would tell him, one way or another. That night, when he snuck to the basement to look for his partners, Rylwaequarth was waiting.
Once he had ambushed and drugged Jomved, it was simple enough to drag him into one of the newly vacant cages in the anti-library. More difficult had been convincing the former occupants that now was their chance to escape to Galadon, but Ryl also managed this. To his credit, Jomved resisted Ryl's questioning through the first night and refused to give him any new information. But the self-indulgent fool had been too eager to break his fast after a day without food. Within an hour, Jomved could feel the poison racing through his body. This loosened his tongue considerably, and he spent the parts of the day he wasn't retching in a corner of his cage trying to answer Ryl's questions.
By nightfall, it was clear that Jomved had answered everything he was able to (and even signed a written confession), except for what God he served, and who his outside man was. These secrets he still guarded dearly, much to Ryl's displeasure. Tomorrow, when he returned from his monastic duties, he would increase the severity of the inquisition, he explained to Jomved, until his curiosity was sated. Rylwaequarth would stop at nothing. He HAD TO KNOW.
Ryl was awoken later that night by monks shouting about a fire in the basement! His heart sank as he immediately knew where the source of the fire would be found. When the fire was doused and the smoke cleared, it became obvious that someone had gone down, brutally finished off Jomved, gathered up any icons or valuable texts, and burned everything else. The fire had been found and extinguished before it had fully burned out, so enough remained that it was obvious that some sort of demon worshiping cult had been using kids down there. Whoever had done this had made certain that Ryl's involvement was obvious to the elder monks. Luckily he had kept Jomved's confession, which exonerated him, on his person.
This convinced Feristle that Rylwaequarth hadn't been a part of the cult, but Feristle was still wise enough to discern what he had done, especially as one of the other corpses had also been found. Most in the monastery knew Ryl had been involved, but not how. Many presumed him a victim in some way. While Feristle bore Ryl no ill will, it was obvious to them both that the peaceful path of the monks was not to be his path. Thus, Feristle put in a word with the Galadon shaman's guild, and Ryl returned to Galadon to join the academy and the guild, and to see what they would teach him.
