He's apparently the most senior of the three watch men, who all appear young.  Despite their lassitude, they do seem eager for a little action.The watch men sigh, finish their round cakes (though they do bag a few for later) and don their armor.  They take their leave of the halfling and accompany Barek and Celythia back to the Tea Rex Inn.Having found no secret doors or tunnels in the inn's cellar, the rest of the party returns to the common room of the inn before the watch men arrive.The watch men take statements from everyone privately, including the inkeeper, Goodwife Thanato, and the freed men, writing a few notes down using an ink quill and paper.  ooc: If your PC wishes to add anything in particular, you can put it in an sblock.When that's done Larry says "It does sound like you've done the watch a favor.  We're not going to charge you, under the circumstances, but unbinding and using your weapons is illegal even underground."Now, we'd better inspect the cellars. Show us what you found."The watch men go down into the cellars with you all, carrying lanterns borrowed from the inn.  Everything seems to be as you left it.In the second cellar, Larry takes note of the recently turned earth.  "Looks like something was buried here.  The men you freed said they didn't know anything about it, and the hobgoblins always kept them in sight.  We'll have to dig here, but first, I'm going to see what's in the house upstairs. If you hear me scream, come up to help as fast as you can!"He climbs up the ladder and into the house above.  After a few minutes, he returns.  His expression is grim."Violence occured upstairs, that much is obvious.  Come have a look.  Don't touch anything"Upstairs, the house looks to have been well furnished, but is now a mess.  There are a dagger and bloodstains on the floor, as well as broken dishes and furniture, and torn clothing."This is out of my league" Larry admits. "I'm used to bashing heads, not figuring out who did what.  I can guess what's buried in the cellar, though.    Are you sure you have nothing to say about it?"</blockquote>
