One moment, Jess finds herself confronting the raving old man, with yellowed teeth, rancid breath, and deathly look in general, and advising him to take his rants elsewhere...the next, she finds herself being seized and shaken by the mad man, foul spit spraying onto her face.
"You! You will be the first to go! Your death will be the herald for the end! I've seen it! I've seen it!"
Beyond the inane ramblings however, now in close proximity to the withered man, the halfling would notice a far more disturbing fact about the lunatic. The withering old man, was a leper, his skin lesions, the decay of his body...told it. And as far as she could remember...contact with a leper was perhaps one of the "best" ways to contract their disease...
The rest of the party however, should they choose, were in position to pry the old man off should they please...that or watch the highlight of the day, a madman raving to a halfling.

Meanwhile, a stern, yet wary old priest would be the one to answer the door...having edged it open only slightly Jess's name was brought up...that and of course, an indication of the entourage of orphans. Following a cautious glance to ensure no rioting rabble was with the gathering outside, it would be then that Ankieseth would be urged to enter the residence as swiftly as possible, perhaps so that the doorbar could be mounted once again while the chaos continued. Course, as luck would have it, that would also be when the ramblings of the mad prophet at the front entrance grew more alarming, in that they seemed to have found a new target to be directed towards...
"You! You will be the first to go! Your death will be the herald for the end! I've seen it! I've seen it!"
