Sure enough, the interior of the chapel looked more like a charnel house than a place of worship. Just as Nyx had described, the butchered corpses of the clergy were strewn about, shaped into hideous effigies dedicated to Kosm. There was only one survivor, an elven priestess who, judging from what Talogan could see and what had been written on the wall, had been forced to endure something truly terrible. Talogan made it no secret that he, like all hobgoblins, hated elves. His flag depicted him standing on an elf skull. He allowed no elves on his ship unless they were prisoners. He always attacked elves first in battle, even if it was a tactical error. But what the servants of Kosm had done to the priestess churned Talogan's stomach with no small amount of vigor.

The sight he had been greeted with as he and his crew entered the chapel reminded Talogan of the first and most important lesson he had learned in his life. One of the few lessons from the time before he came to the pirate's life that he still acknowledged after the events that brought him to the sea. This world, and all other worlds, were wracked by chaos and despair. Maglubiyet saw this and took it upon himself to set these matters to right. But he couldn't do so without first having complete and total command over all that exists. And until such a time as then, there would be many more sights similar to what lay before Talogan now.

Talogan looked past the elven priestess to see a pool containing what was most likely holy water. Thankfully, the water appeared to be without taint. He'd have someone collect that soon enough. Talogan walked over to Tayang and listened as he reported what had been found. "Books, journals, letters, and a locked box..." Talogan said as he glanced towards the corpses littering the chapel. Chances are one of them had it. "Secure the holy water, Mr. Iron Guts." Talogan said while gesturing to the pool behind the altar. "I have a key to find." With that said, Talogan began moving from body to body in search of the key to the locked box.
