Cat looks at the girls, relieved they seem to be alright.
Nya, they'll need food and drink when they wake up Nya! Let's give them some blankets for now Nya!
Cat donates her bedroll

Yulya checks the girls for injuries and is satisfied there are no serious ones. She also donates her bedroll land blanket. Leaving the girls Yulya leads the party into the throne room. She cautiously enters and musters the huge dwarven statue.
I wonder who that is and what rituals were performed here. I know nothing about the religion of dwarves.

Dusty draperies of red and gold adorn the walls of this room, which also contains a bed and brazier. A badly disheveled dwarf lies bound and dead on the cold stone floor.
The figure lying on the floor is an unknown dwarf wearing commoner's clothes who may have been employed by Nezzner or kidnapped but at this point the middle-aged man is no more. He looks like he'd died within the last few days. Other than his clothes he's already looted.

Yulya shakes her head in disgust and speaks a prayer for the deceased.
What was done to this poor soul? Nezzer - what as he doing to all those people? What for?

We shouldn't leave him like this Nya!
Cat cuts the rope binding the dwarf and wraps him in a drapery.

Alice looks at the brazier
Should we - cremate him? I have no idea about dwarf funeral rites...

Yulya has to intervene before permanent damage is done
Now wait a minute girls. While this poor man is undoubtedly deceased I may be able to revive him with my focus crystal!

Yulya wonders if this really is a good idea and if she is using this dead dwarf as a guinea pig to test her skills. But reviving him may yield crucial information - on top of being a good deed.On the downside, it could destroy her focus.Yulya decides to wait for the girls to wake up first.
I will need to replenish my focus though. This will take a while. I hope it is not too late then. We will see. Maye the girls know who he was.

Let us rest and eat now Nya! We should stay with the girls Nya!

Yulya nods in agreement.
Yes let us return. This place gives me goosebumps. It is a crime scene. Eating and resting here would be - obscene. And I do not like this confined place. It feels like a tomb.
Yulya is slightly concerned the dwarf might turn into an undead due to the high mana concentration in the area. She instructs Alice to lock the door again leaving the draped corpse behind for now.

So what do you wanna eat Nya? We must hold a feast in Ashley's memory Nya! I'll cook while you rest Nya!

Having returned to the girls Yulya stretches and settles down in the tent.A  pebble with LIGHT cast on it provides a warm illumination.
I trust you will make a magnificent meal worthy of Ashley!

Yulya warily inspects Ashleys backpack feeling like a grave-robber. She quickly takes the crystal and all candies so Alice doesn't overeat on them.
Dream pastries - I didn't know Ashley had those. What were they about?
Yulya decides everyone in her party should have one as dessert but keeps that a secret for now. Next she inspects the rings she took from Nezzer.

A yellowish slimy mat engulfs the girls, removing the grit and dirt that accumulated since however long they were forced to stay in this mine. In return, moisture is replenished via their skin.

Yulya has gotten used to her alien friends eerie but effective cleaning routine and keeps her focus on the rings- pretending she doesnt see anything. She just hopes the girls do not awaken while being scrubbed clean by an ooze.
