Says Sara in low voice when the man left. Then turning to others asks:

"So we will head to check this cave now or wait till tomorrow?"

'' Well, it would be rude to rush off when a party is being held in our honor. Besides, I need to rest and study. In the morning we should go find this magic cave. That's my suggestion.''

"I agree that we must visit this cave as soon as possible. When we decide to leave makes little difference to me. If we as a group chose to head off sooner rather than later I doubt Mr. Ping's 'Delicate' sensibilities would be very much phased. On the other hand we have had quite an ordeal and I am sure we could benefit from the rest. I leave the decision to the rest of you."

"I agree. We should eat, rest then try the cave tomorrow. So, if there is nothing else, let's go to our uh party I guess." Arnulf exits the shrine and waits for the others. "I sure am hungry anyways and bet those fish I caught will be really good." The young man rubs his stomach for emphasis and his tummy responds with a loud growl of pang if hunger.

"Agreed. I think we should be as prepared as we possibly can when we set off to find this cave the Professor has told us about. I am sure that monkey-men are not the only trouble in this area as Ping has needed to defend the villagers from attack on more than one occasion. Again, it seems there is more to this Ping than meets the eye... But, I for one, am more than ready for the feast now!" Isidar says as she pats her belly. She looks around the shrine one last time and walks out to join Arnulf.

As the party makes it's way to the party, a little girl comes up to the group . She is the one that took Sara to the Old Man Ping . "Hey, I have been looking for you guys . The party is about to start and you need to be there !! " With that she goes up to Dalorna and starts to drag her along to the party .

"Ho, sweeeeeeeeetttt! I'm really hungry." Arnulf walks a bit faster, but keeps a close enough distance to Dalorna and the little girl.

"I suppose we had best do as the young lady says, or we may nevwer see our dead Dalorna ever again." The Professor smiles a bit at his dry attempt at humor before turning and following the young girl and Dalorna to the party.

Sara follows as well but without keep looking around. Something in this situation bothers her just she can't put her finger on that yet.

As the group is lead to Pings house for the party, the little girl leads Dalorna apart from the others to were Old Ping is seating at table . After to saying to her in a whisper :"He wishes to speak to you about the Art and how it applies to where you are right now ."@The little girl waits for her to follow her . Pings house has been transformed into something entirely different from when the Sara and Huln had been here before for there . The middle of the room has been cleared out for space for dancing possibly . On the side of the room are tables lining them . With food set out in a buffet style . The fish that Arnulf caught are dressed and laid at the beginning of the tables as the party enters Pings House . As they come into the house they see several tables on the outside of his house for people to seat down at to eat . The only tables in Pings house are at the ones at the back of house that no one is sitting at except for Ping . He is waiting patiently for when the group gets their food and comes to sit down at the tables reserved for them .


The party observes coming after girl that on the outside of the house there are tables for people to sit down and eat at . The night is warm and pleasant with hardly any wind at all coming in from the beach . It looks like the whole village has turned out for the party . And are just waiting for the guests of honor to show up .

Dropping a curtsey toward Ping, Dalorna says to him-

''Master Ping, you wished to speak with me?''

Arnulf hovers near Dalorna and asks "Where do I sit? And the fish I caught look really nice Mr Ping."

"I would say that Mr. Ping has done us quite the honor by the looks of everything." Huln says the the others. He then begins to head in to the groups sitting area."Well, best not to keep everyone waiting."
