Day five, Morning, in the courtyard of the Baron's residence
A few minutes later members of the household staff have been woken and gathered and Sour is being attended to. When the Baron is away (as he is now) the household guards consist of a number of ex-soldier types among the staff who double up as guards when necessary. Most of them served in the Baron's enterprise at one time or another. Their weapons are simple, but well maintained. None of them bother with attempting to get into armour at this stage.
Most of those woken heard nothing. One or two did hear something at various times, but put it down to goings on in the street, and chose to ignore it. One of the stable hands does mention seeing more than the usual number of rats around the coach passage that allows the access for the coaches from the rear courtyard around to the front of the house.
