You find Peace Through Vigilance, near the party, who somewhat loudly says, "Ah, there you are! I was worried you'd gotten lost!" Then, more quietly, "Do you have it?"
You notice that the guests are leaving, and Lord Lupi is seeing them out, apologizing for the disturbance.

"....?"
"Oh, that! Oros has it."
Loric appears to be deep in thought.

Apparently coming to a resolution, Loric checks around that nobody else but Empire and Peace Through Vigilance are watching and reveals:
"When we were there we received omens. Mine conveyed that the Empire is to die in the hallways of the Ice Cube, having three crossbow bolts in his body when there are rebels inside the building. I am able to name and describe some of those rebels accurately because they were sneaking around this very manor. I believe you will deal with this matter in the best manner possible."
Loric closes his eyes for a few seconds and then smiles peacefully.

Raijin shoots Loric a sudden look and only barely holds back an exclamation. Then he says in a low tone, making sure nobody's around to hear "Dang it Loric who's side are you on? If you had told me earlier we could've skewered the rebels before they could enact their plan. As it stands it's going to be difficult to prevent all of this from happening."
Then he turns to the rest of the crew "Were your visions as dire as this?"

"Moreso, in my humble opinion." Oros thinks for a moment...
"Oh! You probably want these, Peace." Oros hands Peace through Vigilance the folder.

"That's Sir to you when on duty..." He sighs, takes the papers, and begins reading. "Here's to hoping... hrm... seems that any disloyal activity from him is... family driven. Seems he drove out his brother a while back, and some cultists of Baphomet are threatening to kill his brother. Seems he wants to reconcile, but can't... Strange writing about some strange feelings, though... I'll have to have this looked into."
"What was that about visions?"

"Actually my vision went rather well" Adresteia remarks. "True, I was in a dangerous situation, with whips and daggers flying around, and then my tormentors wracked me with pain again, but then I saw him dead, and me alive, which I would consider cause for celebration".

Loric chuckles and mutters to himself: "Heh, I'm starting to get paranoid... Of course we can trust him."
*Ahem* "An extraplanar, divine being that called himself 'Hope' appeared to us and gave us visions of futures relevant to our pursuits. Mine I already described. Pre-emptive actions must be taken immediately."

"Oh, Lord Hope. Mother Iomedae mentioned him a few times... Speaking of action, recent information suggests some cultists are going to attack a temple of the Everbloom, near some mountains. Here's a map there. I'll meet you there."

Linebeck connects both ends of the chain, and wraps them around his left arm.

Raijin salutes and says "We'll be right there sir!" Then he picks up a bit of the leftover food and wraps it in a bag. "Travel supplies!" he directs towards the group. After saying that, he starts to head out the door, then turns to the group and says "By the way, I know these mountains. Better make preparations to bundle up!" before heading out the door to prepare.

"Oh right... Preparations... Rations... It's great I can fly... ...Which way were the mountains again? Northwest, right?"
In the next morning, Loric meets with the others wearing a winter coat bearing the house Splendentium insignia, apparently hastily retrieved from the manor's wardrobe. He is tired and baggy-eyed, clutching furiously to a thick, silver-bound book, breath smelling of ice coffee.
"Morning... Had a rather long study session with Rusko last night... Confound the length some orangutangs go when given sufficient amounts of platinum..."
