'''The DM:''' You awake.  The rain was heavy all day yesterday and it continues this morning when you wake up.  The main storm has passed over, with black clouds and lightning in the afternoon on the 10th.  This morning, it is just grey and steady rain.  Despite the rain, the temperature is in fact pleasant, so that standing out in the rain is strangely comfortable (for natives) rather than chilling.  It is 9 a.m. in the morning.  There is a gentle breeze blowing from the southwest.

'''[[Vafrandir]]:''' Very good. That's acceptable to me to stay here for a few days. I've marked off food for the 2 hires back in Treborg. I'll put Nadia up in the public house as well if she'd like for the time we're here.

The DM: What does the party wish to do now?

Lexent: Do I need a night's rest before being able to commit my new spells to memory, or merely the time to pray for them?

The DM: Committing new spells to memory IS praying for them. Yes, you will need 15 minutes per spell per level of spell. You will need to sleep six hours before you can relearn spells you’ve used today, but you can pray for the new spells right now.

Lexent: I'm somewhat keen to take the time necessary to gain access to those new spells, but I also don't want any loose ghouls to be able to sneak up on us, so we should probably see what the situation is down that hallway first.

Lexent: The good roll on Medicine was a welcome consolation prize for not making it up to amatuer in Dweomercraft. I was really hoping to improve my turning.

The DM: Effectively, a cleric doesn’t “memorize” ... the cleric meditates, prays, then becomes aware of when the power of the spell has been bestowed onto them from the outside. Lexent will be aware now that his spells are coming from the Plane of Ysgard, or Asgard, an assembly of floating continents including the Den of Olidammara, Jotunheim, Valiant Hall and the Plain of Ida; these float over a huge land called Muspelheim, with an subterranean realm below that's called Nidavellir. I’ll go ahead and steal from the Forgotten Realms and say that the Gnomish gods dwell on a small floating continent called “The Golden Hills,” whereat your gods come from.

Lexent: So is Garl Glittergold among my deities?

The DM: Incidentally, Nebelun is the Gnomish god of healing. Yes regarding Garl. Your pantheon is polytheistic, and you don’t pray to any single god. You give your attention to the god that is in authority over the thing you need right now.

Lexent: I'll admit to a bit of surprise that you seem to be hewing somewhat closely to anything published by 'the company'.

Pandred: I don't want to lose in the shuffle the fact that ghouls are still nearby. Are we continuing the fight or retreating? I'm still fighting fit.

Pandred: I'll be watching the corridor the ghouls came from while we decide.

Lexent: I'm at 12/26, so I could be doing better, but have some fight left in me.

The DM: I believe Lexent intends to get spells together. Do you want to do all of them, Lexent, or some of them?

Lexent: I think that Pandred is correct and we need to at least ascertain what the ghouls down the hall are doing before committing to a half hour or more to pray.

Lexent: "Pandred, If your amenable, would you take a peek around the corner and see what you can of the situation?"

Vafrandir: I am good to fight as well.
