Role Play- A Plague in Psaral.

[Dmanwuzhere]

A crow flies by cawing loudly and drops a load of freshly digested berry seeds grazing jacks rifle barrel and narrowly missing his boots. Then flies off with his raucous noisemaking off into the distance

[Meliva]

After a while Felior comes, he seems to be about a middle aged man dressed in nice attire. He smiles at Meadow as he asks to what does he owe the visit. She smiles coyly as she whispers in his ear, and he smiles and they move to a nearby room. After about a minute a loud whistle is heard. Carl moves into the room and see's Felior on the ground motionless, knocked out. Meadow then looks around and see's a large bag. She says to the others.

Tie him up and gag him. Then we can put him in this bag and get out of here fast. The other cult members will start to wonder where he is. If the guards ask what's in the bag, ill tell them its full of fancy clothes Felior has given me. So stuff it with clothes too.

[Jack Teach]

Jack ties up Felior. He puts him in the bag, and then he stuffs it with some clothes he found.

Lets get out of here, before this becomes a problem

[DezNutz]

I concur. We need to get moving before he stirs and others draw suspicion that he has disappeared.

[Meliva]

sorry for the delay here, the draft and some real life issues kept me a bit busy. But time to move things along.

Meadow nods as Carl hefts the beg over his shoulder. She opens the door and on the other side is Nelly and 2 men. Nelly says in a rather strict tone.

I don't believe we met, I'm Nelly, and I am curious as to where Felior is.

Meadow smiles charmingly.

Oh, he had to excuse himself to the restroom. I'm duchess Meadow, and I was just about to leave.

Nelly narrows her eyes at the group and the bag, one of the guards nearby mentions he didn't see Felior leave the room. More guards begin to show up holding their weapons. Meadow smiles as she says in the sweetest voice she can muster.

Now hold on, I'm sure we can talk this out, in fact I have a very convincing argument if you would like to hear it.

Nelly nods as she reaches into her robes. Meadow smiles as she takes step back and slams the door and locks it. She turns and shouts to the others.

Lets go out the window, shall we.

She quickly runs over and smashes the window with a chair before jumping out. Carl follows after he moves a dresser in front of the door and carries the bag with him.

[Jack Teach]

Jack jumps out the window.

Now what?

[DezNutz]

Gregory pulls out his flint and strikes it starting a fire in the room. He then jumps out of the window behind the others.

Let's get moving.

Smoke starts bellowing from the window as the fire spread quickly. A woman at the party screams and points at the fire. People start to shuffle about as panic starts to set in.

The Panic induced stampede of noble idiots will come quickly. They will give us cover to escape.

[Meliva]

Meadow nods as she begins heading south. She fires a shot into the air to signal Oggie to cause a distraction near the north gate. She shouts to the others.

We need to hurry, and be quiet after this.

Meadow begins moving quickly but staying crouched as she does so. Many nobles stampede out the mansion, though quite a few in cloaks stay calm and begin looking around. Fighting can be heard from the north side of the gate and many guards rush over to that area, along with a few cultists. After a while they begin nearing the south gate and it looks unguarded, except it seems Nelly and about a dozen cult members have closed it and seem to be keeping watch. They haven't spotted the group yet and meadow ducks behind a nearby building, Carl following close behind. The north distraction won't last much longer, so she whispers fast.

This doesn't look good. We don't have much time to get past them, so anyone got any ideas?

Felior begins to wriggle in the bag, so Carl quickly decks him again knocking him out. Carl shakes his head and just suggests maybe they can sneak out another way.

[Jack Teach]

Aye, lets go the other way.

[Meliva]

Carl shakes his head.

But thats where most of the guards are at. Maybe we can scale the wall from the middle, and try to avoid the guards in the north and that nelly woman in the south. I got some rope we can use, and if we hurry maybe we can get over it before anyone spots us.

Meadow nods.

Its either that or we try to power through the south. But that nelly girl might have some other nasty magic, so id prefer the former plan. Unless Greg here has a better idea.
