Parum turned away at the last second before she saw the arrow sink into the man's head. She really wondered just who was the villains here. She understood Kyra's anger, it just... It just didn't seem right. Perhaps it was because Parum was a coward and naive, but surely they didn't need to execute him. He wanted to leave and even told them what he knew. But Parum held her tongue in check. She couldn't stomach these actions but neither could she defy them. Kyra soon moved onto the subject of infiltrating the cultists somehow. Brannor mentioned how they'll need disguises as Orchid filled Brannor in about what the man had told them. Parum tried to put aside her disgusted thoughts and come up with a solution herself. [color=7ea7d8]"The... The cult. There doesn't really seem to be a uniform of any sorts."[/color] Parum walked towards the pile of weapons that the mercenaries had left unattended. She kicked over a few trying to see if there was anything unique about them, but she was certain they were simply weapons, nothing more nothing less.

[color=7ea7d8]"They are a large enough band, they wouldn't notice a few new faces. And the man had mentioned that a black-haired woman with a purple robe had hired them. We can use that to explain why we're there, as well as someone to watch out for. If you let me do the talking I can try and deceive them as we go into their camp, scout the area. Only... There's the matter of Brannor."[/color] Parum turned to face the rugged warrior. He had faced Cyanwrath the cult's champion, and had unsed some sort of unmistakable power as well. If anyone from the attack at Greenest recognized him, it would be difficult for Parum to talk her way out. [color=7ea7d8]"Because Brannor faced Cyanwrath, he may be recognized. We can try to hide him with a hood, but it would not be easy if anyone knows his face, or worse, if we run into Cyanwrath ourselves. Unless... Unless we take Brannor prisoner."[/color]

Parum pondered this line of thinking. She didn't like making plans with many moving parts. One mistake and the whole operation is destroyed. However if this works out, then they could get into the cult to spy on them, and get out with none the wiser. [color=7ea7d8]"We can pose as mercenaries and take Brannor as our prisoner. Say that we found him stalking the army. If they are taking villagers and others like Master Leosin, then surely they have a prison. Once there we can try and free the prisoners as well as Leosin, or at least get closer to the heart of the cult's dragon hatchery."[/color] Looking at the others Parum tried to think who among them would make for convincing sellswords. Orchid for certain; an orc warrior would be a dime-a-dozen for mercenary types. Even if he is a bit dim it would be just in and orc's character to let the more charismatic, intelligent halfling do the talking for them. Torus also seemed to have a bit of an edge for a druid, as if he was no stranger to this sort of business. He could pose as a mercenary mage perhaps. Kyra would be more difficult, not only due to her grudge against the cultist, but the fact that she was a pink-haired elf who was at Greenest. Kyra could use some of her magic to disguise her hair at least, that way no one would immediately recognize her. 

[color=7ea7d8]"As for you question Orchid, first we must find the camp and infiltrate it. We find Master Leosin and confirm if he is dead or alive. If he lives, we try and find out more about what he knows of the cult. If he is dead, then we try and find out about the cult ourselves."[/color]
