A Priest Walks Into A Brothel

by Jaya Locke

Serralyn the courtesan, Pia and Ardito join in the raid at the church.
 
The back of the church opens and out walks a duo talking to each other. It is Mrs. Trolio and Cardinal Asmerus speaking in hushed tones about an agreement of sorts and finalizing some sort of partnership.
 
When discussing the whole situation with the Cardinal, Silas finds out that the Cardinal does not actually know about the curse on the Hysteria Root or the reasons for it being purchased other than for money. He believes he is just working with Mrs. Trolio to get money to get the church fixed up. The Cardinal says that Mrs. Trolio is fed up with the lack of ambition Mr. Trolio is exuding, she believes that Mr. Trolio is spending too much time with the orphans and not enough time on business.
 
Information found out from the delivery drivers and clergymen:
Delivery for Jack
The Farm is in the Woods to the North West of Sloegarde
 
After a lot of back and forth with the Cardinal, he cast a spell/prayer against Silas and Brin that burned and blinded them then told the church that he got attacked.
 
The group goes to Pia’s courtesan house where she takes them to a room where the captives are being doted on by some of the courtesans.
 
Information Pia got from the clergymen and delivery men:
They have made a couple of journeys over the past few weeks (at least 1/week) varied amounts each time.
This delivery was on the larger end for some reason
Farm is large enough for 15-20 people to live and work.
Not sure how they are using it or administering it.
 
Talbot smuggles Silas back to La Machera in case the Cardinal sends someone after Silas.
