The truth is, I messed up this time, because I had to provide Sylith with some additional information. I'll try to do it soon, but lately I'm also a bit out of time.

Oh hi there, Esther! I hope you're alright. What Lucky told us sounded pretty serious...
When it comes to your character, let's take it as if Xilla was following the team all the time, but saying nothing. This way you can get back into action without any plot holes.
You find yourself inside the Seer's house, you're eating some jelly-looking fish and sharing information. Also, Lijah MkLear is unconscious and laying at the doorstep for no known reason.
Fine to have you by again.

As Lijah exhales the smoke inside the hut, he suddenly feels his chest exploding with excruciating pain. It feels like his lungs were made of thousand rusty needles, each one punching deeply at the inside layer of his ribcage. It's hard to draw another breath. He feels blood rushing into his face, sides of his head pulsating as they press painfully at the skull's contents. The feeling has it that his eyes are likely to flow out.
All of a sudden, he can feel every single bruise this journey already caused. And the sickness he caught before.
The outlaw's body suddenly consists of pain and torture as he staggers in a desperate struggle to stand.

You made significant progress in a sidequest and didn't ask for any reward. Plus roleplaying. Plus other stuff I didn't like to make separate awards for.

Since Lazerus was already sitting next to Seer who sat at his side, all he had to do was to turn towards her.
The fish maybe wasn't the most fresh meal ever and mostly tasted like some brand of jellyfish, but was surprisingly satiating - if one could ignore the smell of mud. It was also warm, which was nice compared to the cold outside.
As the Seer catches the stone, its ghastly light turns more dim and fades away slowly. Whispers begin to cease and finally fall silent, calm.
A little something for HexaDoken:

I decided to award everybody with 100xp, just because I can and I like how the game is slowly developing.
The stone seems to flash with deep blue and violet. As the Seer draws closer towards it, the aura slowly extends, covering the cave interior with dim light.

Does it mean that he is mute and/or paralyzed?
Seriously, the plot will never go on if you keep this attitude.

So you leave the Priest's lodging as he cheers you with a simple nod and a faint smile, and you head towards the place Verd himself shows you with an extended tentacle.
"There", he says, encouraging you to go in that direction. "Drop in to a canteen later, will ya? We might swap some traveller tales or stuff over some mug or two."
Then he walks away as you roll towards a tiny cave inside the wall of rumbled stone. The cave has some kind of door built in.
Behind a decayed wooden portal there is a really short corridor looking like a hallway. A place to wait for your turn, kinda like at chirurgeon's. There's even a bench to sit on.
Dirty, tattered curtain separating the hallway from rest of the cave is drawn only in half. You barely see anything inside – light from small fireplace is too little to reveal much more than outlines of two people.
“...helped us, so I wanted to pay back for...”, says one of them, a woman. She holds something in her hands, giving it to the other one. But that other, taller one, doesn't let her do it.
“Ah, Tamara. There is no need for you to repay me for this favour. You really need it more than I do.”
The other speaker is also a woman. There is something strange in calming softness of her voice.
“You are filling me with grief by thinking I would take your last thrones in return for such a trifle. You can surely find a better use for them.”
Tamara says nothing. She just nods her head a few times, going to exit backwards until she reaches the curtain. Then she turns around quickly and runs out, not looking at any of the Acolytes.
The Seer throws some wood into a small fire. It gets brighter.
Now she can be seen more clearly - as a slender woman clad in some exotic robes. She somehow seems strange to you, although definitely not in an intimidating manner.

"Hard to tell, y'know. If it comes to pillage, they don't look the leashlings part", the Father responds. "I know there's that Wolf character who poses as the headmaster, but as far as I'm concerned these bastards come in smaller packages. You better ask other folks in the town, few share the past with this particular gutter."
The priest sighs, as though even mentioning the problem was burdensome to him.
"There's, for instance, that Jesco guy. We've found him almost dead, with a huge bullet hole through his back. Says one of hounds did it. Betcha he'd know more than I do. Might even be willing to help you. But I'd see with the Seer first. Maybe she is that wicked witch of sorts, but might have some clever insights. Always does."

The priest regards you with a dark smirk on his face.
"As a matter of fact, yes", he says after a short while, shuddering visibly at the memory. "Now that you mention it, they have a kind of emblem. A collared barking dog's head. Not really ingenious, but has the morale effect..."

"That's a long story", Clem says. "But to keep it short: I couldn't bear the sight of poor people toiling to death for barely any prize. Others called me - obviously! - a heretic, a revolutionary, an instigator. And now I'm here, trying to show these misguided folks an another way to live, keep them from damnation everybody else pushes into them. This is why I founded this village... I know that He on Earth would want me to walk this way."

What he meant was that if Redemptionists kick in, everybody gets shot and you wouldn't be an exception.
And no, there is no real mistake here.
