[orsal]

Nurlan's wounds heal, and his eyes flitter open (healed 8 pts, Nurlan at 3 hps)

[...]

The final attacker (T3) shouts from the mouth of the ally, "You are fools to cross the guild!" before turning heel and fleeing.

Nurlan hears that parting comment as he looks up. "The guild... are they from the thieves' guild that Kim was telling us about? Jezibel, can you explain what is going on? It sounded like you had had a run-in with them earlier."

"Let's kill these guys first, and ask questions later, shall we?" Irene says while pointing at the still sleeping Thugs.

"Let's kill these guys first, and ask questions later, shall we?" Irene says while pointing at the still sleeping Thugs.

"Who?" Nurlan turns back toward Irene; he hadn't clued into everything that had happened while he was unconscious. "Not them, too? Why does everybody who attacks us keep falling asleep in the heat of the battle?" He winks at Irene.

Then the implications of having these prisoners hits him. "No, wait! Who better than them to answer the questions? If we've just earned ourselves the enmity of a powerful organization, don't you think we ought to figure out just why, and what it is they wanted?"

Jezibel

Jezibel is panting, and looks around nervously as she speaks. "My uncle is rich. They think he'd pay a ransom for me. I don't think that be true. I'd rot. Anyway, we should keep moving."

Nurlan nods, suppressing any signs that he might doubt her story. "But should we report this incident to the City Watch? To a passer-by it would not be apparent that we were the ones attacked."

Jezibel

Jezibel frowns at Nurlan's suggestion. "You report it. I'm out of here." She points up and starts walking the direction the party was heading. Anyone else looking up can see the silhouette of a head looking down at the party from a roof above the ally, about 20 feet up.

 

[Gurdjieff]

Irene hurries after Jezibel, not losing track of her. "Hey, wait up Jezibel! You seem to have a knack of getting into trouble, so we'd better stick with you for a while, don't you think?"

 

[orsal]

Nurlan calls after Jezibel, "You're obviously in danger. Are you sure you don't want protection?"

 

[Manzanita]

Jezibel

Jezibel stops, and appears to think a few moments with her back towards you. Then she turns to face you. "I owe you a lot. Yous saved my life. But we must go now. If you want, we can talk more about this stuff at the Owl. I'll be feeling a lot better after some sausage and eggs."

"So would I", says Nurlan, "but what do we do with these sleepyheads?"
