Exotica and the Priest Are Reunited
The Never Ending Quest - Episode 72671

"He is the one I must speak to," Exotica said, gazing down at the priest
of Eibon. "Follow me, but do not attack unless attacked first." And
with that she tugged on her reigns and began the descent down into the
camp of the cultists. The cultists did not move a muscle as the riders
slowly approached. And Exeter did not like it, not one bit. At the
worst he'd expected an attack, at best he'd figured they'd try to run
away. But all they were doing was standing there, staring at his
sister. They seemed oblivious to everything except Exotica. It made
Exeter shiver.
And then the priest stepped forward and addressed Exotica. "We have been waiting," he said, his voice thick with impatience. "You have taken too much time. Do you wish to see everything destroyed?" The priest's words of condemnation were not to the liking of Isabella and the knight quickly retorted, "Watch your tongue, foul knave - this is a princess of the royal house you speak to!" The priest glowered at the knight and replied, "The royal house is in ruins, and is but the den of darksome demons now." "Demons you brought down upon us!" Isabella shouted with rage. The priest just smiled and with a laugh said, "And so the strategems of the Enemy entangle even the most proud and powerful of his foes, and his false reports spread to every ear that is willing to listen. Even yours. HUSH! And speak not of what you do not know nor understand, little girl. Those demons were not called down by us! Their vile lusts are not ours. We stand against them. And if you wish to see them ever defeated, you would be wise to keep your vainglorious mouth shut." Before Isabella could respond, Exotica took hold of her arm and commanded her to check her fury. Turning back to the priest, she asked him to explain what was going on, what had happened after the attack of Arahim and his demonic minions, and what could be done to stop the evil. The priest nodded toward a makeshift tent. "Follow me and all your questions shall be answered."
