## Episode Summary

* With a massive fire in the city, most of the party decides they can't, shouldn't, or don't want to help. Dagna storms off to help by herself. Cam's upset she's not asking them to help with her, and then proceeds to still not help. Dagna rescues a few people on the flying carpet.

* The rest of the party goes to the temple of Sehanine. The temple appears unbearably bright to Cyrus, and the steps burn him. The priest makes them wait until he's done with triage, and Cyrus talks to a little girl, who gives him an origami swan. The priest tells Cyrus he can't help, but that the Order of the Bloodfern on the Scarlet Coast Forest might. He says there is a great evil demon inside him, but also an almost imperceptible good fighting for him.
* The party returns to the house for lunch. Emissaries of House Ranier come calling for a Lord Leopold on behalf of House Macwell and Cam hides. They camp outside the house, and Jarvis says he can delay them for two days. The party spends the night, but Cam sleeps in a secret passage that leads out of the house. Cyrus paints, feels a comforting presence, and hears a voice say, "I am still here. Seek out those of good. Seek out the druids." The episode ends with people coming up the passage where Cam is sleeping.
