Cosmic ends up getting a lot of focus on that line and is talked in to teaching them how to do it. She learns they all know how to meditate, which is the first step in what she does. She teaches them how she does it, explaining she learned to use different forms of hums and words to help her focus herself and work the skills that come with her kind of training. Not everyone Has to do it that way, as its all a matter of focus and belief. Still she teaches them the blessings she uses to cast out demons and how to focus their minds to that task. That part is pretty easy really as all those here have strong faith.
She spends the next week teaching anyone who is interested her exorcism techniques and some basic spiritual magic as well as basic martial arts techniques.
By the end of the week there are no Shadow Demons, Astral Parasytes or Legion demons in 5 miles of the Temple City of Suine. Several minor diseases and some other pest problems are gone to. Also a lot of very tired Elite Warriors cause she took to training them Physically to. What they learned there is they were not in as good a shape as they thought they were. Even Zene and Galford are impressed with her work out routine. Zene is finally understanding how that one tiny elf was able to beat him so easily. He really is impressed with her and even more scared of her really. Especially as she showed them all what her Other gifts could do. Several archery targets did not survive her 'practice' with full powered strikes. (1 full Force, TK wrapped fist, turned human shaped target in to confetti and shrapnal - Fire fist, burning pyre - Lightning Fist, combination of fire and blasted appart - Sub Zero attack, froze the figure solid, then she kicked it and it shattered.)
The Paladin General as well as all the high rankers in the temple got to see that display. All agree they are happy she is on their side. Otherwise they don't think they would survive her wrath.
3 days after this regiment of displays, she learns from the High Priestess that the only reason the Paladin General is in charge is there are no other high ranking persons. Cosmic informs her that the General is a coward, he has ALL their forces in the city cause he is to affraid to let them go outside and actually fight the enemy. Such tactics always fail, and he seems bound and determined to let the rest of the world die just so HE can feel safe.

Couple prayers to Suine and it comes out the Paladin General is not even a Paladin, nor even a member of the faithful. He is just a very skilled politician. Which ends when that came out. Simply because one needs to actually BE a Paladin to be in that post.
The next 3 Paladins are all the same skill rank. Galford, Tress'ol, and this girl, Anwen Blacksoul, who is a half elf Paladin, Rogue. She got the nick name 'Blacksoul' cause of her temper and lack of humanity when it comes to evil. Or what she precieves as evil at any rate. From what Cosmic has seen of her, she is just barely keeping her Paladin status as her temper and short sighted points of view do not speak well for the faith. (she picked a fight with Cosmic, not knowing who the elf was, just because Cosmic is an elf. She did not recall being knocked out in the first 4 seconds of the fight. So she tried again. Again she woke up with no memory how she got knocked out. 3rd time she tried Galford stopped her and carefully explained that the elf is a very dangerous person who kills vampires usually in one hit, cause she is Not an Elf but a Heavenly Messenger who just happens to Look like an elf.)
Cosmic thinks he is being silly. But then she wiped the floor with him a couple of times to. Sure he has fancy magic armor, magic weapons and the power of the wolf. Did no good against her tk shield and super speed. Also she cheats but no one has caught on to that just yet. (telekinesis is invisible after all. She tends to hit pressure points using the tk, on her foes. To knock them out faster.)
On the non combat side of things, her and Lazlo are becoming good friends. To the point he lets her use his kitchen when ever she wants. She always cleans up after herself and even helps out with cleaning his pots and pans while he is cooking. Her skills as a cook impresses him and he is learning a lot from her on dishes he has never even heard of, let alone tried. Which has been good for the tavern side of his place as more people are coming in to try these new food items.
On the Enemy Bases side of things. All the known ones got wiped out pretty quickly by the wolves and Cosmic, after the Paladin General was replaced by Galford. (Tress'ol did not want the post and no one trust Blacksoul with that kind of power, so it fell the the Alpha. That did not help his arrogance one bit. Cosmic wiping the floor with his face, on a few occaisions, does help keep his ego in check though.)
