Because one party member is an autognome (we've re-flavored it to be a dwarf construct), he decided to do the full watch while resting. Unwisely, he just sat in the open... and Lauengram's patrol was thus able to find and surprise the PCs during their rest.This went better for the party, though it was dicey at first. They were able to kill the entire patrol including Lauengram, and decided against capture as they were still mad about falling into the ambush (and now another ambush!)The PCs, now fully rested, tried attempt to of entering the castle. This time it was night, and the party were able to scale the first wall, taking out the wandering guards without notice. They continued their search of the castle, correctly guessing upwards was smarter, and went unseen until reaching the two guards outside the Black Arrow's (or Annalisa's) room.This combat went fairly easily for the PC's; although Annalisa did get off a readied action when they entered her room, her threat was quickly neutralized as the party used some grappling-earth spell (forgetting its name) to make her much easier to deal with. However, with other guards alerted by the noise, if things took much longer the threat would escalate.With Annalisa getting very hurt, she tried to negotiate, which the PCs smartly did (although they were firm about how much they hate Lauengram's guts). Annalisa was able to piece together with the PCs the idea of something tattooed to her head, and with a quick shave the location of the jewel was revealed.Now, with Annalisa committing to not pursue the jewel herself (she assumes that the Count has laid a trap, which he has), the PCs plan to return to the Crossed Lances. Based on their actions, I'm guessing they plan to grab the jewel and hand it off to Kellerman, and bail on the Count's bounty... however, Amadeus von Drakensberg has other plans!</blockquote>
