The veiled lotus

It is early in the morning Erolith has spent all night sleeping next to the tomb feeling a safety and connection he only normally gets from the cave, knowing that to many eyes will be on this place soon Erolith sets his plan in action and sends his raven with a scroll to Cain simply saying I have it come to the burrow and bring syvil it's time he knows

Also; all participants in this thread, please note this a past time event; these events occured starting around the 19th of Havis (during Cain's three week festival of Raos the po-ta-to God) and the current date is the 44th of Havis. So this goes back a few weeks, to two weeks after the battle in Goat Pass.

I am up for this; I'll let Cain act first though as it is for him to bring Syvil.

Don't worry mate; we'll now have a chance to rewind to a different era in the game. When Syvil was still a Blue Sash and the Empire seemed simplier and more benevolent; when the whole of Haven was one great party for three weeks, because of Cain's street festival.
Haha well good but erolith always knew things would turn out the way it would he always said it would time for some foreshadowing lol
Cain reads the note and pushes his chair away from his desk. He makes his way to the lower city and finds himself at a cellar door opening it and entering to find Syvil. Syvil, Erolith calls for me and asks for me to bring you along. It is an important matter and you may want to come if you have any interest in Erolith and what he plans. Let us make haste. Cain shows Syvil through winding streets where he finds his way into the burrow and looks for Erolith.
Something you would not have expected happens as you mention Eroith's name; Syvil goes strangely rigid and his voice is somewhat automatic as he simply responds; Okay. As you go down the streets Syvil seems almost to dread the moment when you will finally find Erolith and for some reason you can't escape the feeling that something is wrong.

Also the potato god? This will be fun to tease Raos with.
You find yourselves instantly changing surroundings even though it's been a party mood in haven of late this area seems to has seen the best of it food smells hit your nose flowers litter the windowsill of every window and music can me heard more then just faintly when you see the raven and it leads you to an abandoned building

Yeah well; someone asked Cain why this celebration, and he just said without thinking 'because of Raos' and the person then spread a garbled rumour that the festival was something to do with a god from the Vale called Raos the potato God...................Haven whispers I guess!
00:00 here; bed is calling me. After last night's madness I need the sleep and won't be around much longer.

Some time after the party. Hmm... Sorry about that Raos I was a little tipsy during that entire endeavor. At least you will be celebrated now as a god of bounty and harvest instead of some fiend lurking in the dark snatching unknowing travelers up. Some may even go to your monument now and pray to you... Perhaps one day we can bring your altar here to be immortalized.
When Cain and syvil enter the building you see Erolith meditating in front of what looks like a tomb
Syvil stands to the side; letting Cain take steer of the conversation to follow.
I heard your call to me Erolith and brought Syvil as you asked.
Good you came and you brought the boy that's  good I'm sure you both weren't followed as I have kept an eye on you both Erolith stands up and points to the tomb in this tomb is the thing that will help change haven for good this burrow is only the first soon my influence will grow and I won't be able to hide my involvement in the events and this tomb is the final piece once the altars are built elisvara's aura and power will flow through the streets and no cult or dromen will be able to stand in its way the veiled one will bring this power and when the war comes to haven we will be ready this is why I brought you both here and why I brought you here syvil it's time you were brought even closer to the inner cycle as I said and have always said there is a war coming and we will need all our pieces on the board
Yet again Syvil seems reluctant to speak and simply meets the implied insult with silence and does nothing by way of greeting. Instead he stands at the entrance; not getting any closer.
Cain gives a sigh Still at odds then you two? I do not know what has happened between you but lets not personal matters get in the way of protecting haven. Erolith show him what you are doing here.
Erolith sighs yea Cain I think it's time watch the tomb Erolith walks over to syvil and simply says follow taking syvil round the area and shows him the quiet and safety of the burrow, look syvil look this place is safe smell that sweet scents flowers on the window box's Erolith takes syvil into an alleyway look syvil that old lady it's early in the morning but she feels safe to walk freely at this time not having to worry about any people who will jump her I know you and Cain and everyone brought the food to haven but this area this whole burrow has been fine for a long time it's what I have been doing all this time well that and trying to fight and understand snowmantle and the dromen things are getting worse syvil and I don't no how long we get now the empire, dromen,  cernas and arwan all these things are coming to a point Erolith looks at syvil and I need you to be ready I know I have been hard on you and I will continue to be but syvil I push you because I know you can take it your strong much more then you know and this world will need you,me and Cain much more then you think and haven will be a key point I believe so safe guarding it is a top option for me Eroliths eyes burn blue I know after you and mindartis had your fight things with us got hard but that and this is something the veiled one went through personal for she is one of my people it's time you know who I am syvil Erolith looks at syvil with intent and purpose my name is erolith qiris and I am a long line of old kindred  child of cernas and slave to the winter court and all he commands, child of the forest and named wind singer to our lady and the one who freed us islidra guard maiden to queen elisvara named tyrants and black hearted monster sithi to the empire, this is why I push you I have had a hand in all sides and used by all but not anymore and it is freedon which I fight for, you are the only one who know my real name and true being Cain has only recently found out I was sithi when his friend Oswald called me out who if you didn't know was the one who trained tarvil himself but syvil it is you who I trust more then any of them because you remind me of me from a long time ago your a good man and even If we don't always see eye to eye just know that to everyone else I'm erolith adna but you know the one truth, now this veiled one was an avatar of elisvara herself and a sithi one of my kin she must by laid here and moved to a new location here in the burrow syvil this needs to happen and I need your help to do it
Having remained silent through all of this Syvil nods and simply says, with that very untactful smile of his: I've been waiting; where do we begin?
Ooc I thought syvil would have more to say then that lol

Ikr? But in character I think Syvil sort of knows a few of those things already and has just been waiting for you to open up to him. That is why he has been so upset with you; he opened up to you and you know more or less all his secrets, and yet you just disappeared on him. So he's been waiting, slowly running out of patience, for you to say some version of what you said. Now that you have he'll want to finally actually help you do something and won't let words be in the way.
Ok then 
If you feel dissatisfied I'll write something else more elaborate! Just say so clearly.
Well syvil first we need to move the tomb to a location I have ready only us 3 will know where it is then I set up rebuilding the surrounding houses while they are doing that us 3 can work on building a secret basement in another house know one will know what's happening lets walk back
