[Maidhc O Casain]

Tetsu

With a bow to the Cardinal and a 'By your leave,' Tetsu puts on his business face, readies his quarterstaff, and joins his companions on their way out.

 

[J. Alexander]

The prelate dismissess the assembled group with a final thought "Please bring him as quickly as possible but do not endagner his health or yours and his safety needlessy....I fear to much blood will be shed before this is over..I would rather not have yours added to the mix..."

For Angelo
[sblock]Bodie chims and and says...well there is a considerable amount of smoke coming from along the river...and it erar to be spreading....in addition to a few scatterd fires here and there....[/sblock]

 

[Scotley]

Angelo Human Mage

As they make their way out Angelo addresses his companions. "There seems to be trouble in the streets. There are several fires, especially along the river."

 

[J. Alexander]

The Streets

Exiting the building the little party finds itself at the steps leading to the residence from which they just came. The street appears to be a mixture of serenity and chaos.....word of the fires and violence is just now reaching the area. To the left the party can see what appears to be the assembling of some sort of guards,,,,while a close look shows the windows to the catherderal and the archibishops residence being shutterd or protected in other ways.....

 

[Scotley]

Angelo Human Mage

"Haste is our best ally now." Angelo sets off at a brisk walk his staff swinging with each step.

[sblock]"Keep a sharp eye out my friends." Then he reaches out to the wolf. "How is our friend? We need to move him to a friend's place for safety." [/sblock]

 

[J. Alexander]

The Streets

Leaving the religous square, the party finds itself going from a see of calm and tranquilty to one of increasing turmoil. Arriving on the borders of the neighbohood in which their inn is located, the group finds itself having to weave bewteen individuals...Sounds of screaming and cries for water etc can be heard coming from the direction fo the river......Groups of ruffians can be seen moving also.....

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Tetsu

Taking a firmer grip on his staff, Tetsu pushes forward through the throng.

"I hope we're in time . . ."

 

[Scotley]

Angelo

"We've got to avoid entaglements with ruffians or we'll never make it back."

 

[J. Alexander]

The Streets

The ruffians avoid the small party approaching them setting off down one of the side streets.
Continuing along the main streets, the party see more and more people fleeing into their homes/shops and they apperaing to be locking doors and shutters as they go...Distinct sounds of brwaling/looting can be heard coming from the direction of the inn/tavern. A glance at the skies shows an increasing cloud of smoke coming from the river district...
