*As Agrim tries to get past - Benson holds him back by the shoulder* You came with a group - you leave with a group.
Dr. Lokvin nods his head in agreement when Benson mentions this. "The streets of Greyhawk are proving more dangerous by the day, if fine paladins such as Talaseka are being attacked. Best stay in a group, security in numbers and all that."
Agrim bristles at Benson's hand holding him back, but then softens his reaction at hearing Dr. Lokvin's words. "If we d-do n-not tr-trust one an-o-ther, then we are alr-ready split," he says, and pushes past to wait at the door. "Th-there is n-nothing l-left to l-look at here. Are y-you coming?"

At Talaseka's bedside, upon seeing the ring that had been hidden inside the carving, Agrim, pretending to pray for Talaseka, instead mumbles a prayer for insight (orison 1), hoping to divine something of the ring's significance.

[1d100] = 88, [1d20] = 14, [1d10] = 1, [1d8] = 7, [1d6] = 6, [1d4] = 1
I'm basing this insight orison on the following:

Guidance: The priest gains a +1 bonus to a Wisdom or Intelligence check to determine the right course of action in a moral dilemma or puzzle.
Before leaving, Agrim kneels by Talaseka's bedside. He touches her head and does indeed utter a prayer to alleviate her suffering (orison 2). "We will d-d-d ... find who causes the r-rot. We will n-not l-let it spread."
Alleviate: A single creature suffering from nausea or pain is relieved of its discomfort. Magically induced nausea or pain is only alleviated if the victim passes a saving throw vs. spell with a –2 penalty.
Edit: Agrim will seek out the nearest minor shrine of either Beory or Obad-Hai and will collect a couple of bags worth of dirt from their grounds. If anyone asks, he will tell them that even the dust of a holy place may help one when great evil is afoot.

It is my hope Saint Cuthbert of the Cudgel is able to help you bring more to the flock Lady Talaseka... My club will be one that helps protect the peoples of the Free City from any danger! *having no questions, Benson tips his head in respect and exits from this mush stuff to the hall to stand watch*

The Druidic Stonering is just outside the city of Greyhawk. Often used as a major site of worship by druids of Obad-Hai. Obad-Hai is most favored by druids and other nature priests. His holy symbol is a mask of oak leaves and acorns. This druid community has always welcomed Agrim in days prior. Having acorns, dirt and oakleaves is a given. Greyhawk does not seem to have a temple or shrine to Beory (it may be an oversight on my part)

Standing watch here in the halls, Benson finds himself having wandering thoughts of religous gallantry of his own. Does a cause higher than Greyhawk draw this hero?

As you leave you are optimistic for the woman. Her weakness does seem to be subsiding from when you all saw her this morning. Fezuul is hopeful that he may study the paladin again as much can be learned. If her aging reversal were to occur, what information would that bring to Lokvin's goals?

Phineous welcomes the invitation to travel with this bunch. Adventuring heroes make good allies. As Cobbler scans his newfound companions he feels that more than one of these can be trusted as they exit the temple and venture further into Greyhawk.
But the robed man with the desert kitten is surely not from around here.

Hoping his answers and demeanor satisfied the man for now, Branc fears for the future of one who calls Greyhawk home. Something rotten. Most assuredly.

The group heads to...Need a destination.
The module begins again back at the Whistling Fish for a meal.
If no one else has an objection......

*Not used to the disorder... Benson does not let any leave on their own quietly... instead he stops them each in turn and states flatly* If you are one to be part of a cure for what is to come - we will all meet at the Whistling fish in 1 hour to discuss our plans - if we are indeed to be a group, we should all meet as one and make it so. 1 hour at the Whistling fish.*Then lets them go*

*Benson will head straight to the Fish with any who stay with him leaving last... if this group deos indeed become a "group", he will take leave from the Watch to follow this calling*

Fezuul Lokvin follows right behind Benson, without a moment's hesitation. Being doctor by profession, Fezuul sees this as a matter of pride, becoming, delivering the cure to this sickness plaguing his home city.
