Template:Rise of the Runelords chapter

We continued into a temple hall. I stayed behind in the shadows ready to strike if something bad happened. The ceiling was high and at the other end there was a raised part of the room with two stairs leading up to it. In the middle was a pool with a circle of polished human skulls in it. Then a strange voice started talking.

The tiny quasit.

It threatened us and said that we should show respect for the mother of monsters and leave immediately. We couldn't see anything but somewhere something talked with that high pitched voice. Velicia mentioned something called a quasit. It was apparently some tiny invisible demon hiding in there. I hid outside and the others told of more of the awful monsters appearing out of some other pool further in, on the higher part at the other end of the room.

I peeked around the corner and threw my magic dagger into one of the monsters. It returned as it does and I hid again. Once more I successfully used the same trick. I saw Nathaniel kill another of the monsters attacking Honeypot as she struck and blinded yet another one. I seemingly couldn't miss with my dagger as I threw it into that monster too. When peeking out for another kill I saw Nathaniel jump into the air and trying to grab a tiny little winged demon that had become visible. I threw my dagger at it bloodying it.

Changing hiding place to a small side room to make sure I wasn't too predictable and closing the doors stopping the little demon from getting away I was joined by Velicia, who were impressed by my superior fighting technique and tried to imitate me. She wasn't as good at it as I am, but I have had a lot of training on the streets of Magnimar.

When I peeked out one last time I killed the last monster and Nathaniel said he had killed the tiny demon.

Honeypot and Velicia did their magic stuff on that bad pool where the monsters were created, while I looked around for valuables.
