The twins had filed up with the rest of the trainee adventurers. It hasn't been long since they entered the Adventurer's Guild which explains why they haven't moved up yet. They didn't mind though, they had to work hard to get somewhere and there was no shortcut to becoming a professional. While no one was talking yet, Vince looked at his sister before asking, [color=9e0b0f]"Has there been no important messages from Lady Ju'tai?"[/color]

Celestia shook her head. [color=ed1c24]"The only thing that she does is ask me questions about how we are doing and if we are learning things here."[/color] Was her reply, prompting his brother to groan in reply. He thought that there was some ulterior motive to this whole 'join the guild' thing. Maybe there wasn't and the Lady simply wanted them to learn more about the world rather than being stuck at that occult shrine. He wanted to know more about it but then they were all silenced by an old man standing beneath the skull of the dragon who had once claimed this city and that very spot its home. It's dead now, obviously.

The old man claimed that his name was Bendis and began recounting the tale on why they were hired for this job. It was a sad tale as this man lost almost everything dear to him. His brother, his son, his wife and his valuable, leaving him only with a wrecked village and a grandson. They wanted justice. Upon the mentioning of Vrediln, the twins visibly tensed up. The God of Torment, Agony and Torture. He was one of Lady Ju'tai's enemies. Ju'tai may have been the mistress of darkness and stealth and may have wanted sacrifices but she was never as evil as the other gods and goddesses. But she despised Vrediln the most. Legend says that the two fought and almost everything was taken from Ju'tai, it was a truly horrid tale. 

Back to the matter at hand, so they were supposed to kill all the bandits, including the priestess. It was perfect. Vince thought that this was the reason to why Ju'tai sent them to this place. To help slay the priestess of her enemy. Celestia thought that it was too. She didn't care about bringing justice to the old man; she simply wanted to do what was right for her goddess. Vince raised his hand, [color=9e0b0f]"Is it safe to assume that you know of the whereabouts of these bandits?"[/color] It was a basic and obvious question. Should the old man not know about the place, they would have to spend hours upon hours trying to search for them. It was simply a waste of time.
