	"[color=598527]Let's... look into that yeah. The ritual sounds nice.[/color]" Kathryn said in response to Victoria's blood splatter across the room. "[color=598527]I am glad you seem to be better now though.[/color]" Kathryn quickly tried to correct so she wouldn't seem like she only cared about the state of the room. Kosara seemed worried about the cage, and it seemed that fear was warranted with some of the others too. When BB mentioned calling out if she needed help Kathryn simply replied. "[color=598527]I will let you know if I need help, but the same goes for you lot. If any of you need a big strong princess to help save the day just call up yeah?[/color]" Kathryn joked giving a mock flex before making her way up. Though she technically wasn't a princess. A lady sure, but not a princess. 

	At the door, Kathryn was both relieved and upset to see the Mosswaters. Thankful it wasn't an angry local who would want retribution for something that someone in the party did. Or some vengeful villain looking for retribution. But also upset because she was ready to push this tea meeting aside due to rather pressing matters going on. Opening the door with the biggest smile she could muster Kathryn greeted the two halflings. "[color=598527]Good afternoon Tarace, Barbal. Apologies for my tardiness we've had a busy day following up last night's events.[/color]" She said trying to not give any hints as to how concerning things were getting. Kathryn wanted to do her best to keep the halfings out and away from the potential carnage that could be present in the coach house. 

	Alas, another one of Kathryn's biggest weaknesses was used against her. Empathy and Kindness. They had brought wine, a gift basket, and supplies for tea time. And! They were clearly freezing. Kathryn stood no chance to turn these two gentlemen away. "[color=598527]Here here, come in.[/color]" Kathryn ushered the two in, guiding them away from view of the basement stairway and towards the table closest to the open fire. "[color=598527]Fire's still going so we can get tea going pretty fast here. I must apologize gents but I am afraid I do not break many stereotypes, and like way too many nobility, the best tea I can brew is a hot leaf juice at best, and sad water at worst.[/color]" Kathryn joked with a smile before making her way over to the bar in the tap room. "[color=598527]However, we may have some pastries that Kosara and I baked up the other day still. And when I held the title of Queen of the Bar, I am told I made a great bar tender.[/color]" Kathryn joked a little more to lighten the mood. Though she left out the part that she was not a bartender at the same time she was queen of the bar. The bartending work came as punishment from Ser Lucas after her self proclamation of queen of the bar to help work off the damages she caused during her evening reign. 

	When the blood curdling scream came from the basement, Kathryn couldn't be sure who was screaming. But she could be sure that no matter who it was something bad had happened. Did one of the dead guys wake up? Did someone trigger a trap? Did Lizbeth get some evil magical effect from what Kathryn had given her? Did they find someone? Something?! With worry on her face, Kathryn turned to the mosswaters, rushed up to them, and quickly rushed over her person to pull out her silvered hand axe and dagger, placing them on the closest table to the duo. "[color=598527]If anyone comes up those stairs other than myself, Lizbeth, or one of the other party members, run for the main house. These weapons should cause harm to anything else that may come up if you get cornered.[/color]" Kathryn said coldly, matter of factly before equipping her hammer and shield. "[color=598527]If things go quiet, and we are not back up right away, run for help. Someone may be hurt.[/color]" Kathryn said grabbing her helm, and slamming it down hard enough it hit the metallic rim of her chest plate. Then! She ran as fast as someone pushing 7 foot tall in full head to toe metal and bug plate could run. Cape flowing behind her as she ran, a harsh flap as she turned the corner into the basement.
