Two soldiers enter, humans with blue-green tinged skin, each carries a quarterstaff in his hands and a light crossbow hangs at his hip. They give a cursory glance around the room, poke drapes with their staves, but they aren't looking for small mortals so Annika and Jar'Thol go unnoticed as the soldiers rattle up the ramp to the upper floors. In the attic, Xielt, Three Flowers and Growling Ape hear the men stamping up towards them and hope that the hiding places that they've picked amongst the assorted barrels, crates and piles of old belongings is enough. The door bangs open."There's one!" says one of the soldiers, pointing the end of his quarterstaff at Growling Ape."And another," says the second, pointing at Xielt.Three Flowers, for now, doesn't seem to have been spotted."You there," says the first soldier. "On your feet." He strikes a commanding pose whilst his companion readies his staff in case of a fight.</blockquote>
