Orion nods, grimacing, and speaking quietly to Braxton "Much as I agree with you Braxton, if whoever's pulling these strings has enough clout to keep us here for so long, I'm not sure anywhere would really be safe...Myswell go along for now."
The longer their incarceration goes on, the more convinced Stalker becomes that they are been manipulated. His respect for whoever is doing the manipulation grows. During his time in the watch he has heard all sorts of odd stories but a group of prisoners keep in the cells for a simple brawl for this length of time is not one of them. To pass the time Stalker will tell tails of things that he has done and heard about during his time in the watch, in the hopes that the others will reciprocate.
When they are finally let out of the cell, Stalker briefly contemplated making a break for freedom. However, he quickly decided to see how this played out but still keeps looking for ways to escape. Turning to Nico he says "Showing us his power is one thing but it does not inspire our loyalty. Assuming he needs our cooperation, making us angry is not a good way to go about getting it.

The party is led from the jails to a very common boarding house/tavern. As they enter a slim young man address them "My name is Jeremey and I am to look after you till your potiential patron arrives. I have had hot baths prepared in each of your rooms as well as having had set out the necessities for shaving. If it is convient I suggest we meet here in the common room in 90minutes or so. And please leave your soiled clothing outside your door and ti will be attended to.

"Agreed, friend. I judge that none of this group are likely to be cowed into submission, and service without loyalty is perilous at best. Especially when that service comes with a grudge . . ."
Other than this exchange, however, Nico holds his peace in regards to their treatment. He accepts the offer of a hot bath and a shave, and leaves his soiled clothing (minus important personal belongings, of course) as requested.

Arie is not happy about the rediculous treatment that the unwitting participants of the cruel dance of intrigue are moved from one step to another, but he refrains from giving his opinion at this time.
when he is led to the bath house, he does as he is told and removes his soiled clothing and procedes to clense himself as thougly as he can, given his lengthly stay in the "watche's gennerous house of rest".

OCC: Yes all of your belonging were returned.
Each of you is shown to a private bedchamber in which a bath has been made ready. Basically as you look around the room is more like a small apartment

Orion sighs, partly out of relief, partly from exasperation. More waiting... In any case, he took up the offer of the bath, cleaning the jailhouse grime from his body, and cutting back most of the whiskers that grew longer in his captivity. After he finishes and dresses in the provided clothing, he gets his normal gear on, minus his old, dirty clothing. Once all that is taken care of, he takes time to draw Tenebrous' seal, bargaining with the shred of divinity for a share of his powers.

Binding Tenebrous, DC 21. Invisible Castle is down right now, but my bonus is +11... If you want to roll it yourself and let me know the result, JA, that's fine with me, or I can edit it in once IC is back up. Your choice.
EDIT: And I'm switching Pact Augmentation for the day to +10 HP (+5 twice).

Once his spiritual business is concluded, Orion walks back downstairs to wait.
