"Nothing worth knowing until I see you all fight," mutters the monster hunter. She walks up to Red, and stares her down from under her own hood, "gently caress your hammer. My shortsword in addition to my bolts will be silvered."

The monster hunter beckons the rest of the group to follow at once, "We all go in together, this gate will not separate us."

Curious, the wolves have a clear path to her, and must know she is attacking them, but they do not fight back. Yveth counts the people who have and have not been attacked and comes to her conclusion, "Get onto the road! They appear not to attack those who stay on the road!"

There is another possibility, she realizes, "Or near the torch!"

"This mist is your doing, isn't it? But you didn't need to coerce us: we kill monsters. Bring us to it, we shall slay it and you will release us or meet the same fate. Understood? Then go." She points with her bow-gun to the door.

"Children. Go. Inside. You can't stay out in this fog, whether or not you called it. There are wolves, who've killed one and injured another, and if our monster escapes the house through a cellar door or window you'll be alone and unprotected. Don't make me make you."

Yveth, a grown woman, pushes the children inside and goes in herself. "Everyone go."

"So the kids were ghosts, and mist, lethal. We don't–never had a choice." She locks the front door and spends the rest with her back against the wall with the best concealment from every door depending on its position and which way it swings. Bow-gun unloaded but pairs of bolts in arm's reach.

"Indeed. I'll take the heavy. The rest of you should arm yourselves for ranged combat. This is how to sweep and clear a building..." She explains 'slicing the pie' and how to never show your back to an uncleared room. That the ranged combatant has initiative. To flash sight, and not to point and shoot. To keep the non-dominant eye closed because it adjusts to the darkness faster.

She's left handed, so she opts to sweep from the left rooms to the right rooms in an expanding spiral.

Yveth appraises the armor, "If it's real, who does it fit? Curse-check it."

If we can harvest a breast/half/full plate armor from it no reason not to loot it.

"Hmph, bookshelf." Yveth checks for a false one. Rich people always kept a secret passage between rooms, and this was the most stereotypical place to hide a door. She never took them for nonconformists.

Rosavalda is allowed to possess the monster hunter, who also swaddles the child in her bedsheet and ties her to her backpack. When the mist departs she will bury her properly, and perhaps put the spirit to rest.

Yveth reveals her silver tipped crossbow ammo and weapon. "Know what it's like. Enemies are so dangerous that you can't trust anymore. "Friends" make you "weak." What should we tell her? That you should have yourself."

"So cowards can be paladins. Torture and murder amuse this man and his torch going out doesn't? Then he's twice the fool, three times if the point of all this is morale.

"Don't care what gave him the position, this ruler is a loving idiot."

How many guards are there? If the idiot tries to drag the man Yveth will cut the rope with a bolt. She's a Sharpshooter now.

"Grab Lars and let's run without a fight. You can stay with your new friend, Marco." Yveth winks, hoping it was all a bluff and he'd be their inside man. The guards won't chase too closely.

"The Traitor. This is a card of power and strength. It tells of a weapon of vengeance; a sword of sunlight. Look for a wealthy woman. A staunch ally of the devil, she keeps the treasure under lock and key, with the bones of an ancient enemy."
