The Church of Good Hearted Souls is a nondenominational church, located in a poorer district of Houston. The neighborhood itself doesn't disguise the fact, but the streets that they walk through to reach the church are populated almost exclusively by Shadowkind, of all types. Dwarves, elves, gnomes, even a minotaur shuffle past, many of them making their way in and out of tenement buildings that have seen better days. The occasional humans that break up the mix often wear clothing more suited to a fantasy village - and those who don't sometimes have hairstyles that give them away as less than totally modern. The Church itself doesn't even remember a conventional church or temple in any way - it seems to have been built into a squat brick building, hollowed out to make room for folding chairs, since pews seemed to be outside their price range. "All faiths welcome" proclaims a sign out front, and another replaceable sign below it is flipped to read "Sister Deborah is in".

[Her expression grave, Avaleen merely nods, eyes on the ground as she watches where she walks.]

You think the people who did this are likely human? [Wanting confirmation for what she already believes herself.]

[silvermaid]

I think it fits a pattern of hatred I've seen far too many times, yes.

[She looks momentarily lost in a memory, a rare hardening to her eyes as she gives a curt nod, pushing it back down as she fills her lungs and lifts her gaze to Ana with a clearing of her throat.]

Should we, speak with Sister Deborah or reconvene with the others?

[silvermaid]

I think we should see what they found out, first. Just... in case.

[Confusion flashes in her eyes but Avaleen doesn't say anything, merely nodding her understanding as they leave the basement behind.]
