As everyone gears up and gets ready to go, Saithnar hears the slight scuffle of a foot on pavement. He looks towards the front door, and sees the reflection of a woman with a crossbow, aiming it inside. her pale blond hair shines in the moonlight as it whips at her face in a growing breeze - a black scarf wrapped around her mouth and nostrils.
Saithnar can hear at least two more, one whispering quietly, while another seems to be braced up behind the door.
Blacklilies are here. And they're mad.
OOC: There will be a surprise round, in which Saithnar and the Blacklilies can act. Initiative rolls for everyone, and post your intended actions to save time.
