A Public Posting from Abbot Orlan Proskus

[Phantom Lamb]

*A public posting is tacked up on the city bulletin boards, signed by Abbot Orlan Proskus himself of the Temple of Helm*

Citizens,

A strange attempt was made two nights ago by Elric Gallows, notorious member of the Black Hand. He entered our temple briefly and was detected. Before he could be apprehended, he clutched an object and vanished.

We have had experts from the Legion examine the impacted area. It was not invisibility, but some form of extra-spatial travel.

We do not know what prompted his entering the church, but his actions gave us defensive information. Allies of the city will receive detailed letters on how to ward their sanctums against this extra-spatial device, which is no doubt possessed by other Black Hand members.

To Elric, I offer my condolences. It is never too late for forgiveness. I can only hope your apperance in my temple was an act of desperate redemption. My arms are still open.

*detailed letters are given to various allies of the city with findings*

*One of Elric's sources brings a crumpled piece of parchment to Elric as he lounged in Jimmy's Dice Den.*

"Ahh, Abbot, I only wanted to talk to you about the small differences between Bane and Helm. I do so miss the philosophical discussions we used to have. It is too bad that the Holy Warriors guarding your person would not let me talk to you. Oh, I did want to tweak your nose a bit also," Elric thinks as he smiles, then stretches, knocking the young elven lass off his knees as he does so.

Deep in thought when Elric happened upon him in the Citadel, Omnigalas, unaware of the specifics of the current situation due to his inability to be present in areas one would place public postings, nevertheless smelled the stink of a goodly aura, imbued upon Elric by being in such a holy place. The dark penetrating eyes that fell upon Elric reflected Omnigalas' curiosity and suspicion.

The presence of such a foul smell never failed to cause the Blackguard to immediately become consumed by hatred and intentions of murder, but, as he had done many times before, he forced himself to relax before rash actions were committed.

Producing a low guttural growl for the purpose of acknowledging Elric's presence, Omnigalas strode out of the room while making a mental note to keep an eye on the bard.
