Swee - Halfling Paragon

"Auntie! Oh, you brought the guards! There were some thugs who attacked our patrons in the common room, with daggers and such!" He tries to explain the guards.

Ivar takes a step back from the struggle as the guards approach, but makes no move to leave the inn. He watches the scene with interest, wondering on which side the guardsmen's judgment will fall...
 

The two guards don't seem convinced by Swee explanation, but hopefully his aunt shout "NO, not him their inside the bar, they started the fight inside". The guards looks at Swee with a strange and look and rush inside.
At the same moment a group of humanoid dressed with red cloack enters the Inn.

The leader of the cloack groups seeing how Eolan pinned the older women to the ground, shout to the guards "Soldier, let St-Cuthbert's justice decide the fate of those poor souls"

The oldest guard lower his head visibily scarred by the group "No ... Problem, we will ... let you handle this. he then turns towards his younger fellow "quick let's get out of here, our work here is done, don't ask question and follow me" The younger guard not too sure that what is doing is the right thing but not wanting to upset his higher ranked partner follow him out of the Inn. Most of the Inn customers are leaving the building by any mean possibles , some are jumping out the windows others are trying to leave by the kitchen back doors with the guards.

The women being pinned by Eolan, stop resisting his pin, looks at Eolan and makes a big smile.
 

Rell Sunharrow Half-Giant Soulknife

An unnaturally tall copper skinned figure emerges from the back wiping his hands on a towel. He looks toward the innkeeper, "is there anything I can do to help?"
 

The Swee's aunt a bit surprised by Rell sudden appearance, replies Rell, something wrong, the guards just left, I am getting old and might need some help to restore the order in there She then heads to the Inn central room.
 

Ivar eyes the red-cloaked figures warily, the scene outside the tavern still fresh in his mind. The guard's rapid departure does little to calm his nerves, and he readies himself to fight or flee as the need might arise.
 


Maliant, human Hexblade

At the sight of the Saint's followers Mal stops dragging his captive towards the door and laughs. "So now do we find out who wants who dead and why?"
 

Eolan is quickly grabbed by a four cloacked men. The old lady stands up and shouts "Bring that one outside, he needs to learn the meaning of respect" The Three men then bring Eolan outside. She then makes a long pauses, looks at everyone in the room, her eyes seems as cold as the northern wind. "I saw everything, these two persons lying on the ground attacked first" all of a sudden, everybody in the room seems to acknowledge what she just said, some even add false details to help her prove her point. "Bring those outside also and apply the appropriate sentence" As she finishes her last sentence her eyes lit.

At this moment the half-orc turns toward Dion and whispers something

Spoiler Mal
The female elf, looks at Mal and tell him softly. Please help me, don't let them bring me outside, Kill me on the spot or help me escape and I will let you know about ...

The old women, using a very authoritary voice, shouts Quick, bring them outside

Both Dion and Mal unsheat their sword and attack the cloacked men. Ivar hesitate a few moments to join the combat but seeing what these people did before decide not to participate and stay neutral. Dion and Mal fight harshely down a few of the adept of St-Cuthberts but are quickly overwhelmed, and fall under their morning star. The old lady order the survivor to bring the bodies of the fallen outside, the rest of the group also bring the two assassins that attacked Mal and Dion outside.

The old lady turns towards the crowd in the room and with a very soft but convincing voices says You see what happens to those who do not follow the path of truth and justice, every time you are tempted to deviate from it, remember what happened tonight. No reason is good enough, and nothing you do will stay a secret forever. St-Cuthbert sees everything, us as his most trusted followers will make sure to execute his will, now go and live a long prosperous life following the "PATH"

The women then slowly heads towards the doors. As she is about to leave the building a soldier enters the room draging an injured armored women.

"Grand Sister do you recognise me, I need your help, could you heal this soldier of the PATH"

without a word the women look at the veteran soldier, she then turns towards the women "What is your name?" the soldier answers Elis my grandeur

Silence, I want her to answer, What are you doing in our beloved part of town, we don't see fighters following the PATH that often around here?
