(OOC: Movement through the crowd costs double.)Back in the center of the Pavilion, you see the short form of a dwarf muscle his way out of the mass of onlookers.  You hear Gram's voice issue forth, "Move aside, let me through!"  He looks at Hayder laid out on the ground, pain in his eyes.  He kneels next to Sabil, the Patriarch, and puts a hand on his neck.Lasair, having heard nothing from Shadya, delays.Conuld hears through his spell, [spoiler]"Yes, he's not very fast, but hurry, I think he's armed."[/spoiler]Cludge bellows at the crowd.  The people near Cludge jump, startled at the dwarf's loud voice, but they just give him a mean look, rather than move out of his way.Conuld follows Kurgahz, pushing through the crowd, hoping that his messaged Sairundani remain within range.Shadya is stunned, she hesitates.Lasair waits for Shadya to say something. (?)The crowd is calming down some, but a few people are darting out of the fringes, glancing back fearfully as they flee.---Pseudo-Round 2The guards continue to calm the crowd.Kurgahz muscles his way out of the edge of the crowd.Gram closes his eyes and Sabil's eyes flutter, but he does not wake.  Looking frustrated, the dwarf says something to the guards nearby, but it's difficult to make out:[sblock=Listen, DC: 18 ]"That's all I've got, I never thought I'd need to delay poison in 8 people, gods above!"[/sblock]Conuld hears in his ear, [spoiler]"He ducked into an alley, we're following."[/spoiler]Cludge bellows again, this time people listen and move aside.  Cludge barrels past them, catching up with Kurgahz.Conuld, using the path created by Cludge, manages to close some distance with the chasers by running full speed.Shadya... (action?)Lasair... (probably depends on Shadya...?)More people from the crowd are fleeing.[sblock=Only if you made the DC:20 Spot check from before... Spot, DC: 23]The man from before, who ditched the cloak, with the sandy hair, he's fleeing with the others.  Though his head is down and he's doing well to blend into the crowd, you managed to spot him running south west.[/sblock]---Pseudo-Round 3Lasair... (?)Conuld is 60' in front of Kurgahz and Cludge. Kurgahz, Conuld, and Cludge make it over the north east edge and see... [spoiler]Conuld's citizens slipping into an alley about 70' away from Conuld, 130' away from the other two[/spoiler]. (OOC: I assume you three will be running towards the alley, top speed. If not, tell me now.)Conuld hears in his head, [spoiler]"He's in here, somewhere, I think he's hiding.  Where are you?" The voice sounds worried and a little frightened.[/spoiler]Shadya... (?)[sblock=OOC: ]Sorry if this is confusing.  Here's the input that I need, in case it's not clear:Shadya stalled out in round one, she can act in round 2 and 3.Lasair won't do anything without Shadya's approval, so I've delayed her action 'til after Shadya's.  Round 1, Shadya stalled out, so I'll eventually need Round 2 and Round 3 actions for Lasair. Kurgahz, Cludge, and Conuld, just confirm that you're continuing to give chase in Round 3 if that's the case.[sblock=Kurgahz: ]I completely forgot about the conversation with the other orc!  I'll pick that up now.She responds, her head down, her voice soft, "Um, yes, sure, I have just a moment though..."[/sblock][/sblock]</blockquote>
