A priest, a ghost, and an adventurer walk into a church...

The priest took notice when Lana brought up the dungeon and the monsters within. It seemed that something was troubling him about that. However that was when he noticed the fallen candles and turned his attention to that and he moved over to pick it up.

"I'll...pay for it if it's...broken...no worries..."

When Lana said this he turned back to her and smiled. "No, no need. It's nothing that important nor do I think it's damaged enough to replace." He chuckled again. "A church as small as ours tends to keep dinged up things such as these even when they are far more damaged you see."

He glanced at Anna and noticed the girl's eyes had been wandering off towards the back of the church, where the cemetery was, and he shook his head. "Anna, it's much to late to be playing around in there. You should be heading back home you know."

He paused and looked at Lana. "Well, after you finish talking with your new friend." He said the last word with a hopeful glint in his eyes. "Your mother has been waiting for you to return and I can only keep her from coming to drag you off for so long." Yet another chuckle followed.

The priest, after righting the candelabra, began to go again. He paused next to Lana and said quietly. "I appreciate you talking with her, just be careful not to put any dangerous ideas in her head." He smiled after and then, unless Lana had something to say to or ask of him, would continue on.

Even after he left Farah seemed to not return, and Anna gazed off towards the cemetery with her head tilted to the side.

Thessa looked down the hole where the ooze had fallen down. She couldn't really see much from where she stood. She thought about it a moment and looked around this level. Her eyes settled on a piece of rebar sticking out of the exposed concrete and grabbed onto it. With a heave she yanked the rebar as well as a chunk of concrete close to the end out of the floor.

Now armed with a makeshift hammer Thessa jumped down after the creature into the tunnel below. The sprinklers were on and Thessa noted that the creature had now grown in size. Blocking off the tunnel enough that if she for whatever reason wanted to try and pass it by she couldn't.

Still she could see the round objects inside the thing so she smiled as she approached. "Oh no more of it whatever will I do."

She hefted the rebar up like a baseball, said "Not much room for a home run but it'll work," and swung it at the ooze. She had almost forgotten about the man inside it until she noticed the ooze intentionally put him in the way of the hammer. Perhaps in an effort to block her from hitting another globule. It succeeded in protecting it. Sort of. The hammer struck the man and the globule both and sent them flying out the back of the ooze.

It wasn't perfectly clear but it was clear enough she could see where the two of them landed. She also could see that, as the water struck the globule, it reformed around the man into a second creature.

Letting out a breath Thessa shook her head. "Alright, well that'll be next then." She pulled the hammer back once and swung it horizontally at another globule. This time when she connected she continued the swing to push it off towards the wall on the right. When the globule hit the wall it was crushed between it and the hammer. When Thessa pulled the hammer back she saw the concrete portion was beginning to crumble and she decided to finish it off by hitting it against the floor and breaking it into pieces.

Hefting the rebar she laughed as she backed away a few steps. "How many sport events can I cram into today?" She held it up like a javelin and sized up the ooze.

It was hard to explain but instead of simply reforming the ooze looked to be tightening up and growing more dense as the water cascaded around it. With a sigh she realized she'd need a bit more power to pierce through and reluctantly let a bit more time slip away as she threw it with intense force forward. The rebar struck the globule and pierced it through entirely and broke the last of them inside this ooze.

Team QN

When they returned to the daycare they'd first see Billy, wringing his hands and looking out into the fenced in area with a nervous expression. A bit farther on, inside the fence, they'd see Bobby standing with his hands over his ears.

“Hopefully it is the one that was missing. The thief mentioned something about Team Phoenix and regret, but I only recognize the latter of those things and I do not regret anything about this morning yet besides that it happened at all.”

Billy jumped a bit as they suddenly showed up and turned with a smile. "Oh, good. That should calm her down right quick." He frowned. "I heard of Team Phoenix, but usually just around bigger cities. They're a nasty bunch who think they can do whatever they want just cause no one can stop em all." He sighed. "Ever since Champion Hannah went missing....." he sighed, then shook his head. "But enough about that, y'all should go get that egg to Bobby. Oh and try not to listen too hard."

When they got a little closer they could see the Magmortar. It seemed to be trying to stay awake and struggling to do so. The cause seemed to be the trio of Jigglypuff who were standing around it and singing gently. But even as they watched they could see the Magmortar was trying to shake it off.

Kelsey read over Fen's message again as she impatiently waited for someone to let her in. It made her laugh the first time and it made her laugh this time too. She wondered why it was that this group had caught her interest so much. They weren't the most recent group since hers had arrived. Perhaps it was that their first meeting was a fight or perhaps it was because she was reminded of...

"oh, welcome Kelsey." The girl gave a polite bow saying, "I'm glad you decided to meet up with me today. So uh, did you have anything in mind to check out? Oh, I also just finished with breakfast but you're welcome to anything as well." 

"Yo!" Kelsey responded and walked in without prompting. "I already ate something but I don't mind eating something else too, I was always told I burned too much energy so might be good to pack more in ya know?"

“I’ll see you around,”

"Not having a girl's night then?" Kelsey said. "Well, laters!"

Kelsey made her way to where the food was and began to grab some herself. "As for what I had in mind, there's so much to do and I don't really know what you like. Could go watch some fights at the Arena, or go play some sports, maybe beat up that Adonis guy a couple more times..." She paused. It hit her that all the things she listed were physical or sports related. "Hm." She looked over at Fen. For a moment she imagined someone else standing there, teasing in a subtle way about her choices, and a nostalgic smirk crossed her face for a moment. "Do you maybe wanna go to the aquarium or something?"

Melissa's search for a temple brought her to something unexpected.

It seemed there were four buildings that could be described as a temple. At the north, south, east, and west of the city. Each of them also apparently served as transporters that could send someone to the other layers of the city.

The building itself, whichever she had gone to, was long and oval shaped. With a domed ceiling that had several of some sort of narrow spires sticking from it. The entrance was open, there were no doors and only and open doorway, and she could walk in without problem.

Inside she'd see a long hallway and a tall ceiling, twelve feet from the floor, which had no lights. The only lights seemed to come from open blue flames that were in nooks every half a dozen feet which were between closed doors.

The hall itself was wide, enough for four or five Melissas to walk side by side, and about a dozen people were passing one way or another as she entered. At the far end of the hall, which was quite a ways away, it seemed to open up into a large room.

There were three figures that stood out. Because they were wearing electric blue robes with their hoods down and the lower half of their faces were covered in dark blue masks of some sort of hard material which had scales etched in and seemed to have fanged mouths over where their normal mouths would be. One was standing near the end of the hall, another was walking from door to door and occasionally stopping to let someone in and the other seemed to be checking the fires.
