The guard named Mariana remains outside to watch the door and the citizens disperse. She closes the door behind you and all the guard's heads turn toward you. The guard captain who spoke outside is definitely in charge of the others. There is no sign of the guard sergeant from last night.</p><p></p><p>"Thank the gods you're back!" Wymond says. He is one of the guard from the previous night. "That damn thing downstairs has been driving us crazy all night. It won't stop talking and keeps trying to trick us."</p><p></p><p>"Easy, Wymond, it is secure," another one of the guards says. This one is also from the previous night but you never got his name. He speaks to the guard captain you don't know. "Captain Adalind, tell him."</p><p></p><p>"As long as what you've told me is the truth, then I don't think we have to worry," she replies.</p><p></p><p>"Aye, tis secure and has been all night," Odhran says. "I swear it."</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Where is Sergeant Lichefield?"</span> Vinccenzo asks.</p><p></p><p>"I sent that drunken bastard home," the captain says. "I am Captain Adalind." She offers her hand in friendship. "I am sorry I wasn't here last night to greet you and that you had to deal with Sampson. The first night I take off in two months to be with my family and he drinks half the night away. If it hadn't been for Odhran and the others, it could have gone very badly after you left."</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"He didn't seem drunk last night, just belligerent,"</span> Vinccenzo ponders.</p><p></p><p>"That's how he gets when he's drunk out of his mind," she says shaking her head. "If he wasn't the first son and heir of of the Lichefield Family, I'd have replaced him years ago. I've tried to get him reassigned to another post a dozen times but the paperwork keeps getting, lost."</p><p></p><p>"Aye, the sergeant has friends in high places," Odhran says.</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Who is watching the doppelganger?"</span></p><p></p><p>"Théodore, my third in command. He was stationed on the wall last night, so I doubt you met him." Captain Adalind looks at Odhran and he shakes his head. "That's what I thought." She runs her fingers through her black hair. "The other with him is Jaquan. He says he met you last night, but he didn't get to introduce himself before you headed off on another task."</p><p></p><p>"Aye, you mentioned somethin' about saving one of the killer's victims, right?"</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"We did. The boy is okay."</span></p><p></p><p>"That's good to hear," Captain Adalind says. She sighs. "Let's get that thing out of here." She leads Vinccenzo and Odhran downstairs to take charge of Mani. The passage down is too small for Tim. He can hear the doppelganger whine and complain from the top of the stairs, however.</p><p></p><p>"Well, well, look at you! All prettied up!"</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"Shut up!"</span></p><p></p><p>The doppelganger seems less ragged than the night before when Breva and Tim sees him. Vinccenzo notes the look on Tim's face and hands over the shapechanger to the large man's steady grip.</p><p></p><p></p><p>"Ow! Not so tight!" Mani complains.</p><p></p><p>"By the gods, it never shuts up!" Wymond moans.</p><p></p><p>"I'll paint your face some day, young one," Mani hisses. The doppelganger laughs, which sounds like a donkey braying.</p><p></p><p>"Do you need any help?" Captain Adalind asks. "I can send Odhran or one of the others with you."</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"I think we can manage, but if you're offering, Odhran or Mariana could come with us. We know them more than you and the others."</span> He pauses. <span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"No offense."</span></p><p></p><p>"None taken," she replies. "I can spare Mariana, as her shift is almost over." She looks at Odhran quizzically. "You okay to go with them?"</p><p></p><p>He sighs then nods his head. "Aye, I'll help take the bastard to the Lord Commander."</p><p></p><p>Mani giggles like a quacking duck being strangled but grows silent when Tim's grip tightens even more.</p><p></p><p>You lead the doppelganger out of the guard post and Mariana looks relieved to see the creature leave.

You've earned it."</p><p></p><p>Mariana nods and follows the three heroes and Odhran down the steps and out into the streets of Old City. Mani doesn't hide his form as you traverse the district. He hisses low at any onlookers that get close enough to see his visage. Most of the citizens stay away and any children on the street are taken inside. A small group of old men shout curses at the shapechanger and one of them throws a piece of rotted fruit that barely misses the doppelganger's head and deflects off Tim's shield.</p><p></p><p><span style="color: rgb(250, 197, 28)">"None of that!"</span> Vinccenzo orders.</p><p></p><p>The old men grumble but back away.</p><p></p><p>Halfway through the district, the streets become quiet and semi-deserted.

[QUOTE="Knightfall, post: 8127681, member: 2012"] [B]Outside the Rat-Infested Bakery:[/B] The initial crowd of onlookers aren't sure what to expect when Ákos strikes his staff on the ground, but once he starts speaking, the bulk of the citizens stop what their doing and listen to the Loremaster's tale. There is some recognition of the names of Ákos companions, especially Big Tim's since he's quite noticeable walking through the streets of Old City. A murmur of shock goes through them once he reveals that the Old City Killer is a monster but then sighs of relief when Ákos mentions the Regulars taking charge of the 'villain'. When he mentions Tuck and Mutt, many eyes go to the two packmates inspecting the underside of the bakery. A couple of curious youngsters watch the kobold urban ranger intently as Ákos continues his tale. There are a few tears when Ákos mentions the boy but then gasps of joy once he gets to the part where he mentions Spindle. More people gather around the Loremaster and even a passing patrol of Bluffside Regulars stops to hear the end of the tale. Soon there are more than 50 people gathered around Ákos listening in rapt attention. Once Akos finishes his oratory, the crowd claps and cheers and good wishes and coins are donated to Ákos for him or his cloister. A local seller of fine meats and cheese offers him a bundle of food to share with the other Heroes of Old City. The boy, Adrian, nods in assent to Ákos advice and his mother thanks him and introduces herself. "Loremaster Ákos, thank you for taking the time to tell us that ale. It was quite wondrous.
