Back to the 14th
[I'm assuming that everyone follows Alarion until told otherwise.]
The constables manage to climb back to the Magistrate's Office proper with no more difficulty that expected. When they exit the basement, they find that Elke has been busy, and there are mugs of fresh, hot cocoa for each of you, and an alarming selection of cookies, cake, pie, and assorted other noshable goodies arrayed on the table before you with loving care. "Welcome back, Constables, I've been expecting you," she says. "Old Grumpy, um, that is, Magistrate Ironshirt, is busy in his office going over some more expense reports that just came in."
