I actually kind of like that she's claiming ownership

The griffin continues looking about. He steps into the threshold, but doesn't actually go through. He continues to look behind him, having a strong distrust of both the interior of the building itself, but also the street behind him.

"Are you the ones who cleared it?" He asks

"I would have loved to have been here for that, but no..." Posey says, drooping her head as if defeated
"It was handled by a band of mercenaries who worked on behalf of local officials: I guess the military does care about stamping out evil once it interferes with productivity. They did a sloppy job, but a thorough one." she says
"Or cell, has had to lay low... The temptation to strike evil as we see it is so painfully to pass up, but but right now we have far greater priorities, such as..." (intentional pause to prompt curiosity)

"The rescue of our princesses." She says
".. It's a thing I hoped to speak with you about today. You see, the Holy Knights of Equestria are in need of... Friends. And from the stories I've heard about you, your cell is in need as well. I recon you knew this though, so let's talk about that."

"Yes." Posey says flatly
"And as for that holy bastion your comrades vanguard I'm northern griffonia; I heard it's recently been putting out calls for personnel across the globe, hasn't it?"
She gestures to the sword
"That sword, it was forged from silver, for the purpose of slaying vampires. The Knights Of Celestia know well the horrors of the walking dead; they're so few in Equestria due to our service, and the grace of the Sun Princess."

"My understanding..." He looks back towards Posey

"What I'm saying is, if the call came, the knights of Celestia would be ready to fight against the dead, but now, they are at an impass."
She looks towards the griffon
"I can't speak for all of the cells, but I know that right now, what the cells seek is a path forward, a beacon of hope, a path towards the light. Should they hear of a means to free the princess, they would surely reunite and charge on their crusade, and the Arcturian order would have the knights of Celestia at its service, and potentially even the princess itself." she continues
"And so I ask you, is the Arcturian Order prepared to help find that path forward, should it make contact with the cell?"

(This is the part where I get good pony points from master, for extracting crucial intelligence from Luminous before killing him)

There's a sort of slow nod
"You say you can stop death itself, but you couldn't stop your princess from getting captured, could you?"

He breathes in, then breathes out
"I can't really speak for the Arcturian Order. They've kept themselves neutral in all of the politics around the Griffin throne, and in that I am proud but uh... Well" He looks away

>I can't really speak for the Arcturian Order.
Well so much for that.
"I fully believed that the princess could stop death itself if she were ready, but protecting her from conniving changelings was our duty, and we failed..."

"And I can't speak for my own order, but I know what motivates them. I know of the Order's neutrality, and I respect it, for your cell are ascetic knights. I only ask, do you believe that our Order's position might change? Don't get me wrong, this is no quid pro quo, but just an inquiry. We swore an oath to fight against the darkness, and we'll always help those in need, but as we are now, we have only do much to offer."
"So, what do you suspect the order would say in the future?"

He seems uncertain if he has understood her question:

"I believe that the Arcturian Order knows that had it, for example, supported a particular Archon, or claimant to the Imperial throne, it would not have lasted as long as it has. And so it is with pony politics. Perhaps.... Perhaps I can be a little more free."

Posey gives a satisfied nod
"You're an honest one. As I expected. In these trying times, I think we could still help each other quite a bit. In fact, I believe that we could be good friends." she says, with a smile
"I have something I would like to show you, away from the prying eyes if the military, or any disguised changelings." She says, gesturing to the opening threshold of the building and the creatures outside
"Follow me. You too, Alluring." she says, not waiting for a response as she turns slowly walks deeper into the building.

(She intends to kill him now)
I think this is a good stopping point for tonight.

I have risen.
Posey proceeds towards the oddly shaped room beneath the first floor. As she goes, she puts on a friendly demeanor and makes some smalltalk, to lul her victims into a false sense of security:
"I'm another time, I might have given you a tour of one of our cathedrals. The sight of a Equestrian cathedral is one to behold. They're all built with the polar directions in consideration, so that the light of the princess can shine through the stained glass windows just right. There's still a few of them, but the Blackhooves have them under watch, ever so eager to scrutinize gatherings of the faithful. They don't appreciate just how important we are, or what dreadful evil could take root in our absence... Lurking in the shadows..." she says, with false wistfulness.
Rolling Bluff, to influence their attitudes.

Alluring is unarmored, so I assume a 19 hits him flat footed.
Rolling damage
[2d6 = 6]
And grapple
[1d20+7 = (7+7) = 14]
He's going to need to make a will save or be driven mad by the Vile Touch.

Idk what the white griffon's AC is. He may dodge it.

"It's been so long since I fed my puppies. I met them when my own master threw me into the mire as part of my training. We had a bit of a tussy at first, but we came to an understanding. They're just so very, very, very hungry. I could relate afterall, to the feeling of having a bottomless hunger deep inside your core that you can never, ever fill..!"

Sorry for meta-bombing you all of a sudden, GM. It might be frustrating. If you want to wait until tomorrow to do combat, I'm fine with that.

Posey's giggling dies down and she gazes back. The concentric rings in her eyes swirling with uncanny madness.
Black, necrotic veins push up through her fur coat, and she cracks her neck in an unnatural angle.
"~Let's dance!"

Posey draws her unholy symbol and takes an action to spend a use of rebuke undead to Bolster herself against turning (because I still have no idea how powerful Luminous is, and turning could ruin my night).
She ten steps until she's just ~30 ft away from Luminous, and cackles.
Puppy 1 continues it's ravenous assault, intent on devouring Alluring

>Attack Your Opponent
You can make an attack with an unarmed strike, natural weapon, or light weapon against another character you are grappling. You take a –4 penalty on such attacks.
Okay, if Alluring is already grappled, subtract -4 from either of those rolls.
If the crawler success in hitting him again while grappled, it proceeds to pin him to the floor, covering his mouth to smother him and prevent him from screaming. I'll need a separate grapple check for that though.
