Having spent some time outside Suzail, Aella hears of the rumors and becomes curious. She heads to the shrine and starts to investigate. She'd also leave word with the Purple Dragons to contact her if they required her help.

He felt like walking by a whispering forest stream, as he progressed through Suzail market. Same guggles. That scent...
Like something very acidic with thorns on top spreading like a disease... Panic... He inhaled deeply, reciting holy mantra in his head, his Ki raised frequency
and everything he doesn't want to acknowledge, just slides of his shield, like drops of rain down window glass...
Theravien would soon be at the temple. He would help if help was needed, listen if an ear was required,
spending his time at disposal of the Shrine of the North Wind.

Dimitri is seen in the area investigating, golden wings on display. He seemed to have been a regular at the shrine for Bahamut, and is rightfully angered over the killing and abduction.

Being the caretaker of the temple Lynn can be found pacing back and forth fist clenched, red wings spread wide. Her anger growing with each step.

Thorell is seen heading into the Bramblewood, alongside Mouse and Darkharp after hearing sighting reports of a Kobold with silver skin. They thoroughly search the forest, looking for signs of the Kobold's movements.

A group of purple dragons are seen searching the area around the shrine and investigating what happened. Tenders to the shrine light four extra candles in their prayers and supplications to their god.
For those inquiring about the attack the following can be garnered from the Purple Dragons and those tending the shrine:
Three Platinum knights were killed in total.
Two of them were killed just outside the shrine.
A third was killed a little way north up the road from the shrine.
The missing priest is called Tobias.
The shrine itself is undamaged.

Aella looks at her right hand a moment then asks the tenants of the shrine for something that Tobias might of owned. Be it something little or something he tended to on a daily basis.

"Well this was an interesting morning."
Kalthariam reflected as he sat in the empty shrine to the North wind dragon, his eyes carefully scanning the temple as he pondered about the days events.
First he was swept out of the Greatgaunt in the middle of a conversation with Alamor, into a distance cave, finding himself now being stared down at by a large silver dragon, he remembered feeling both awestruck, and a little fearful. The dragon was massive, but it spoke to him kindly. They spoke of his recent actions, and his search for the Silver-scaled Kobold, his sudden spontaneous divine powers? The dragon called him a champion of Bahamut. Something about it felt.. right? Kalthariam couldn't place it at the time. He remembered the silver dragon telling him the priest kobold he sought was safe, this lightened his heart considerably, after weeks of searching. He heard the dragon mention he might find the kobold again. Perhaps the kobold could help him understand more? Maybe they could help. He would continue to look, but he was happy to know they were safe.
Kalthariam looked over the necklace he was presented by the dragon as he sat quietly in the temple shrine. Lindra had recently left. She had agreed to help him find the priest whom was missing from the shrine. Kalthariam himself also felt deep need to find the priest, not just because they were in trouble and needed help, but also because this priest would likely be able to help him answer questions he had. He wanted to know more, and understand more of what was expected of him, besides the general tennants of the faith.
"The priest has been missing for a while now from what I understand.." *he said softly looking around the shrine* "perhaps there's a clue in the shrine.. writings of the priest perhaps? Somewhere in here.." *He said as he would look around the shrine, not wanting to disturb too much, but also wondering if there was more to be found.. either hidden or hiding in plain sight to those whom should know. He found himself sitting at the spot of worship, offering both prayers, but also looking around from this spot. Prehaps..? It was a clue provided to someone whom would openly be worshipping the lord of the north wind? He wasn't sure, and without more information he wasn't sure where to begin, but that didn't stop him from searching for the missing kobold, and it wouldn't stop him from trying to find the missing priest.
Kalthariam would find himself spending much time in the shrine. The tranquility of the area helping him focus on trying to figure this all out.. perhaps in time he'd manage to figure this out. He looked down, the amulet given to him by the dragon still gently pulsing with magic, he quietly stared at it and then grasped his hand around it. "I won't fail." *he said to himself, steeling his resolve for the trials ahead* "Not again."

Kalthariam would be seen around the Greatgaunt, getting in contact with Thorell in regards to the shrine attack, and some information he found. He openly was seen discussing having a meeting with a potential informant inside of the Purple Dragon guard, that he was arranging to have a meeting with. The guard was said to have had direct contact with the attackers of the shrine and could potentially be a key witness to figuring out the events.
Shortly after Kalthariam and Thorell entered the Tavern to have a drink and discuss things that each of them found. This conversation included many little peices of things Kalthariam had been slowly gathering, and rumors he'd heard and shared with Thorell.
A little while afterwards Thorell and Kalthariam went on a roadtrip to investigate a few things in regards to an old monastery that was attacked. The three of them investigated a dug of grave near it, did some open speculation in regards of possibly culprits, and whether or not the two events might be related.
Afterwards the three of them visited the restored monestary, and spent a while inside, before coming back out and splitting off going their separate ways.
Kalthariam would be seen making repeated visits to the shrine itself, and traveling around quite a bit seeming to be looking to uncover more information while he awaited his meeting with the guard, as the Purple dragons were to send word to him when it can be arranged.

*An Event happened at the shrine* Shortly After Kalthariam received a letter at the greatgaunt inn, he would visit the shrine of the Lord of the Northern winds, gently he would take out the Silver Dragon statue that Elon had gifted him. Looking it over, he'd give it a small smile, it had been in an undead dragons horde according to Elon, after carefully washing it up, Kalthariam decided it would be a good gift to the shrine. Looking around the shrine he wasn't quite sure where to place it, eventually he settled on the patterned area to the left of the shrine itself. Carefully standing it up there, he'd quickly give it a little pep talk, with a cheery tone, before turning back towards the shrine and spending some time, praying, contemplating, and deliberating over the events of the past week infront of the large statue. Looking up to it he'd give a smile and a wave, and begin talking. "Heck of a week huh? Yeah.. I've been running myself ragged, all over trying to find hints and clues to this. Good news! Hopefully we can move forward with finding Tobias soon, I got a message in regards to my inquiry.. though, I guess it's possible you already knew that eh?" He asked the big statue, leaning back on his hands as he looked up at it, letting the tranquility of the shrine help him relax. "I won't lie, it's been frustrating.. so few clues, no real witnesses until now, the trail long being cold by the time I got involved.. but I'm not gonna give up.. that's for sure. If there's one thing I'm really good at, it's being stubborn." He said with a firmness, but also a small smile. He pondered for a short while, looking up at the orb gently "I'll admit.. I'm not really sure what to make of all this.. but if it's your decision, you're the boss, and I'll do my best to live up to what's expected of me." Kalthariam would sit at the shrine, for about an hour, just quietly talking to the shrine, he wasn't sure if anyone was listening, but even if there wasn't it helped calm him, and if nothing else the calmness would help him in the trials ahead. After another hour of just quiet contemplation, Kalthariam would get up off the floor, and stretch "Well.. I'm sure I've taken up enough of your time.. see you soon." He said with a bow towards the larger statue, then walked back over to the Silver Statue and gave it a pat on the head gently "Remember, it's only until we get Tobias back alright? Don't go changin' stuff too much, I'm sure tobias wouldn't be happy if you did that." He said with a smile towards the inanimate silver statue, before leaving the shrine to prepare. Then a few moments later, Kalthariam had an idea, and wandered back into the shrine, and would place his letter in the arms of the little Silver Dragon Statue for anyone visiting the shrine to see: The Letter reads as follows. Dear Mister Derlian
The Purple Dragons of the Suzail Guard have informed me that you have expressed an interest in investigating the attack on the Shrine of the North Wind and the disappearance of the Priest Tobias. I fear that the Purples have taken the investigation as far as their resources allow and it seems it is incumbent on us Platinum Knights to discover what happened to our brethren.
If you are able to aid us I would be most grateful, please meet me at the Shrine in a couple of days if you are able to.
Yours faithfully
Platinum Knight Sergeant Kovus Mithrandon// OOC Information, I've been told this meeting will be at 11 AM CT on Friday for planning purposes. Kalthariam will be reaching out to everyone who will listen to him in regards to the Investigation, as it's a potential lead. If you care to tag along, please do!

Synopsis Update:
Kalthariam, Lindra, Dharci, Thorell, Mouse, and Henrik All met at the Shrine of North winds, to meet with Platnium Knight Sergeant Kovus Mithrandon.
After a brief bit of catch up, and Kovus providing Kalthariam a documentation with the Platnium Knight's Seal to aid in the investigations, Kovus took the group to where one of the knights were killed, and gave the group a Psudeodragon to help sniff out Tobias the Monk.
After some searching the area, finding not much of use. The group found a Purple Dragon Knight Guard whom was able to share more information about Jerente, the Knight whom was intimidated by the attackers. The man was discharged and spent his time wasting away in a tavern at the west Suzail docks. The group interviewed the man, and learned that he was driven by a fear he couldn't explain during the encounter, and the man he met was heavily armored, and bore a helmet with a dragon insignia on it. These clues from the Witness lead the group to believe the priest Tobias, might be being held in Hilp. Here they were joined by Ariean whom arrived at about that time.
After learning about this, the group met up with Crom, whom was outside of the Hilp settlement. After a brief exchange, the group forced their way into Hilp, cutting down countless Red Dragon Aligned beasts, giantkin, and kobolds, until they got up to their leader at the top of the keep. Thorell attempted to Parley with the Half dragon leader, but in the end, negotiations didn't lead anywhere, and the group was forced to fight the half dragon as well as it's backup it was stalling for.
Sliding down a broken stairwell afterwards, the group would fight their way through the last bit of the hall, only to be eventually greeted by a pair of young girls whom were kidnapped and being held in Hilp against their will.
In the end, the group did not manage to find the missing priest Tobias, but they did take heart in saving two young innocent girls whom lived in Immersea.
The group then returned to the shrine of the north wind to discuss what they learned, and talk to Kovus that way they could plan their next moves.
Though an ominous rumor of hooded figures being seen north of immersea did make the group question if it was possible a cult was involved in these whole affairs.. but more information would need to be gathered before they could make their next move.
