Mag sets himself as well, arrow at the ready, hoping their quarry has the sense to surrender; whatever information he has will be hard to gather if he's dead. For that matter, Mag finds the thought of being whoever has to take the first crossbow bolt for his fellows to be a truly unsettling thought.

The Sword of Adonai seems to sing as it flashes through the air. Dietrich eyes the hard looks of the crew and licks his lips nervously. There is sweat on his brow.
"Look, I tell you whatever you want to know, but if you take so much as a step I swear by all the gods I'll punch a hole clean through you. I got this crossbow from a gnome wizard, and it's guarenteed to put a big flaming hole in your day!" The crossbow wavers in the man's hands a bit, but he steadies it against the overturned table.
"I...Captain Turion was a client of mine. I...assist folks in finding buyers for hard to sell and rare or one of a kind items. Captain Turion often had these little knick-knacks he'd bring me. I arranged a meeting between him and some foreigners in the back room of the Arrow in the Bull, but you already knew that. I just introduced them, that's all. When Ben and I got to the tavern, one of the foreigners was already there up with a couple of local thugs. I told Ben we should back off, but he wanted to go through with the meeting. After that, I just stood by the door. I...I couldn't hear what they were saying. Their lips were moving, but no sound came out. Then, Ben seemed to get really upset about something. He stood up like he was going to leave, but one of the thugs grabbed him from behind. Ben kicked the table over struggling, the lamp broke against one of the kegs, and that's when I ran. I'm not proud of it, but that's all I know, I swear. I didn't have anything to do with Captain Ben's death. It's those two thugs and that foreign guy you want."

Noiseless talking? Sounds like Colmarr's whisper spell Mag thinks to himself. He makes a mental note to ask then gnome when he rejoins them. Holding his own bow steady, Mag cocks his head.
"Now, surely you didn't call him 'that foreign guy' to his face?" Mag says lightly. "And where, pray tell, might we find him?"

Grondar
The big thug enters the room and calls to Dietrich
You better lower down that crossbow If you don't want me to break your face apart, what those thugs did to Captain Turion will be a joke compare to what I'll do to you if you don't come out.

Troth 'the kind' Barbarian
Troth passes Denther by and walks to the room where the others are gathered. As he enters he bow down to the little girl and lets her climb his back 'hold thigh around the leather I dont like this scene for you' he whisper to her ...children shouldn't see this kind of behavior... he then bows down to Colmarr whispering again 'im taking the girl out the backdoor wont have here if the owner get crazy and shot someone'

Naomi holds tight around Troth's shoulders as he picks her up and exits the shop with her. "Where are we going, Troth?"
Dietrich cowers back as Grondar approaches him, dropping the crossbow. "All right, all right, I'm not a violent man! Don't hurt me! Look, I don't know the guy's name; it was somethin' unpronounceable. Too many syllables and all sorta slurred together. He has a ship anchored off the coast north of the city. Word is, he's got some business with the slavers just north of here, too. Look, that's all I know, I swear!"
"All right, all right, I don't know what the Captain was trying to sell, but that key you picked up," he points to Malachi. "That fell off the Captain when they were fighting. I picked it up, you know, for safe keeping. After what happened, well...I just want this all to go away."

Grondar
Grondar goes to the man and picks up the crossbow
He is all yours and that weapon is mine.
He exits the room and goes to find a sack to put the crossbow in
