Theremin entered the room after Vimak's shot. He was trying to get a sense of the situation when he saw Xobru leaning toward a water elemental. The elements are completely chaotic here! What is going on? he wondered to himself.

The water elemental seems to slow it's ascent up Vimak's body, not covering his mouth, quite yet. It doesn't want to believe them, after witnessing how they treated the Earth Elemental. Not that it cared much for its rival, but still.
Behind them, the entrance to the temple burst open, and a flood of men, elves and dwarves came in.
"Everyone is under arrest," said a gnarled old dwarf. Fegrun.
His men ran into the Throne Room with a look of both disgust and reverence. These people, after all, had violated the most holy place in the Mirrored Temple's faith. The men drew their firearms and aimed them at Theremin and Xobru.
Fegrun surveyed the damage. One of the thrones stood broken, and the floor behind the thrones was cracked and destroyed as well. Fegrun's face turned red upon seeing this.
He looked at Vimak, seeing the elemental wrapped around him.
"Kill it," he ordered, and two of the soldiers, Fire Genasi elves, approached and threw fire at the water elemental, careful only to hit the water and not Vimak (though he may have gotten slightly singed). Once it had separated itself from Vimak, soldiers turned to it and fired, all at once. One volley was enough. The bullets that did hit the wall bounced off, leaving no marks.
"You have ten seconds to explain what you are doing here in this holy place, and why one of the ancient thrones is destroyed!" he said, looking from Xobru to Theremin and back to Vimak. He noticed Nacay's body on the ground, but didn't pay it much mind.

Vimak looks to Nacay. "Dying, he is dying. Him, We should help him." Vimak looks at the Dwarf expectantly before continuing.
"Here, You said to come look here. Town, When we saw you in town. Fighting, When I got here the door was broken and sounds of Fighting. Help, I came in to help. Shot it, It attacked so I shot it." Vimak points at the crumbled earth elemental.
Vimak slowly starts to move towards Nacay's body. A pace that is meant to convey that he is interested in going over to him, but not interested enough to get shot over it.

"Don't ye move, or ye'll have a enough lead to make ye too heavy fer flyin'," Fegrun said to Vimak, trying to make out the Aarakocra's strange vernacular. "I told ye you could come and investigate, not that ye could break in and trash the place. Ye said ye heard fightin'? Who was fightin'? And who broke down the door? And what happened to that throne?"

Jord watches as the elf and bird man take wing and fly away rapidly. He is further yet in shock as the one he had spoken with the longest, Xobru, gets up and takes his molluscan friend with him. He is confused by this. Jord is a deliberate man. He does not make hasty decisions. He sighs, finishes his beer in one long gulp and turns to Lola, the last one at the table. "Well, they all left in quite a hurry. I hope mephits don't attack here again. However, I did feel some, some sensation. Should we go and take a look?"

Xobru remains calm as the dangerous rifles are pointed at him, while Hadar the octopus raises as many tentacles in the air as he can without losing grip of the elfs neck.
"Dear dwarf, me and my companions arrived only moments before you did, finding the door smashed and the confused and innocent water elemental defending itself from something. If your minions had not destroyed the poor thing we could have asked what happened. Now we can only assume that some fight took place, with an unconscious orc left behind but who knows how many warriors escaped? Or mephits?"
The warlock gives the fire genasi elves an accusing look before turning his attention back to Fegrun. Xobru makes no move to fight, flee or surrender.

Vimak stops, turns back to Fegrun, cocks his head to one side, then the other, pauses for a moment then tilts it back to the other side. Pointing to the rubble and the unconscious orc's body.
"Again, Sorry, I try again. Broken, When I got here everything was broken. Fighting, They were fighting. Stop, I tried and failed to get them to stop. Elemental, I had to kill the earth elemental."

"Yer sayin the door and chair were broken when he got here?" The surly dwarf asked. "That's a likely story, and one this fella here ain't gonna be corroborating anytime soon.
"Ye helped earlier, and the elemental were obviously in the room, so I'll assume they did most of the damage. All o' ye get out and stay out. The temple is closed until we understand what's happened."
He and his men moved aside to let Xobru, Vimak and Theremin past
"And don't touch him," he said, pointing to Nacay. "I want him for questioning. If he survives."
