Lia nods to Geoffroy. " I will go along with the others to the corpse room. Fay and whoever else wishes can examine the interrogation room. I need to be where the danger lies to be able to heal if needed. Most are running quite low on magical powers currently. "
Nyzahr has witnessed the results of the exchange between Fay, Geoffroy and the one called Darsi with growing interest. She finally is satisfied that the bargain between all parties has been well driven and gingerly approaches the scaly, frail but defiant creature and gently gives her the half-dragon girl she had been carrying.
- This One Thanks Thee For Thy Dedication And Thy Bravery To The Small Ones. The Girl Dragon Shall Be Named Ishtaret, "The New Found Hope". This One Shall Be Back For Her Some Day. The Kobold Mother Shall Be Her Keeper Until Such A Day.
She then turns to the others, and sides in with the group going towards the torture chamber.
To Fay:
- This One Also Needs To See What Happens To A Surviving Prisoner. This One Is Curious How Such Beings Endure, Indeed…
Out of Character:
Going to check the torture chamber. I assumed that Nyzahr's mental image projection could bypass the language barrier with Darsi, otherwise we can assume she sent the same message to be translated by Fay.
Darsi responds to Fay, "Yes, there are supposed to be many creches like this, spread across the continent. I don't know where though."
She is uncomfortable about Nyzahr, and Fay's relaying of the tiefling's words doesn't help much. But she takes the newly hatched infant Ishtaret tenderly.
After the half elf has related what was said by the kobold, Geoffroy notes the orb of magical energy floating in the air. He considers how there was likely such in every nursery and reminds himself to ask one of the more arcane focused members to perhaps study it. There might possibly be a way of using such to track down other locations.
Yet for now Geoffroy will leave such alone, instead looking to Lia to say in a tone of concern and warm care for her well being, "Stay safe, and watch over not only those of the Silver Blaze but yourself as well." The Morningliege could not bear the thought of the fair wood elf dying or coming to be so badly woundedas she was before.
As he walks with Fay and Nyzahr, as well anyone else who follows, to where the interrogation room while, Geoffroy offers, "I have enough magic I think for a single heal if any are still alive." If they had missed any before, life may have likely faded at this point, yet just in case he thought to mention such if they found anyone.

"I suggest we take the orb. If Cyanwrath beats us back here, we will have rendered his eggs useless for a time. There is no harm if we return first. It will also prevent any from hatching with no one here to feed them. The bag of holding, perhaps?"
Since the majority of the party seems ok with splitting up, Velon will otherwise follow Poljen to the room of corpses, along with Cratol, Lia and anyone else who wants to go.
Out of character: Hate to add another decision, but it just occurred to me that taking the orb could be quite beneficial.
Those who go to the torture chamber find the room empty of hostiles. Of the two still figures Fay spotted last time, only one remains, a scarred elf in an iron cage. Various tools are stored neatly on a bench by the wall.
Those who go to the room where the enemy has been disposing corpses find little has changed there either. The condition of the bodies is odd. There are still no signs of life in here.
Velon looks for signs of the stalker in this room (Corpse room), such as another ledge or hole higher up. He'll also investigate the bodies more closely, looking for bite marks and any other signs of what is odd or what may have been done to them. Lastly, he'll try Divine Sense one more time.
