It's quite easy to spot where they went as they literally tore through crowd. Beaten road, scattered goods, and clamoring citizens going about the street. The citizens don't pay much mind to you two as you leave. But as you start heading out, "Excuse me!" A gruff voice shouts out and behind you is a man in blue clad armor, with two others in like armor. The other two are talking to the civilians as the man who called you out is cutting through the crowd, "I'm an arrester, I'd like to have a word with you, please!" The man says as he heads through the crowd.
The man gives a chuckle and a smile, "Anything, my friend, secrets for secrets. It can be a cheat, a regret, anything really, a lover's scorn is always amusing while a family disputes are entertaining. But I have to warn you friend, my little pet here can smell lies. He likes truths cause they hold emotion. So I ask that you tell me a real secret, then I can tell you about Orro's cousin." The man pets the creature as it nuzzles his neck.

Yevna looks at the arrester, then turns and looks behind her before looks back at the man. Me? she says, You want to talk to me, what for? She watches the arrester as he approaches her, the beetle that was in her hair scurrying out of sight. Is it about those men that caused all this damage? I was just as terrified as everyone else, she motions around her, my friend and I took cover in this building to get out of the way. Look at the damage they caused...do you know who they where or why they wanted to destroy this place?

Blitzen purses his lips. He doesn't want to let this guy know anything, and with how hard it is to get a read on the performer, the guy could easily be telling the truth about his...pet sniffing lies. But Blitzen doesn't want to fail so early. And! he realizes. The performer knows about Orro!
"Alright," Blitzen says,
"I'll reveal a secret. It's a bit embarrassing (I don't tell people about it normally), but also not one that would cause me more trouble than its worth, I think. That seems reasonable, right? Unless, of course, your only purpose is to delay me..."Blitzen's fingers spark as he ruffles his blond hair.
"Hmm...Either way, here goes:" Blitzen takes a deep breath, then rushes into it.
"When I was in the prism university, I first wanted to study mimeography, because I thought it would be quite interesting to be able to make simulacra and etcetera of myself, but I could never get the hang of it. It's a very specialized branch even in the Izzet League, but I still sometimes wish I could have done better in that field. Is that enough?" asks Blitzen, looking impatient and a little embarrassed.
The man shakes his head, "That is what I am hoping to find out ma'am. Everyone is telling me much of the same thing, a few cloaked individuals storm out of the alleyways and tear through the streets on horses they stole. Now I don't mean to sound offensive but,"The man's eyes linger on the condition of both your equipment, ",would you two know anything about those suspects? Anything helps, supposed allegiances, motives, or even where they might be headed." Varis pulls his hood down more as he tucks his chin in, hoping to conceal his skin tones to the man.
The man nods while his pet purrs, "Yes, my friend, it was exactly what I asked for. A secret of yours, now exposed to me." The pet crawls about the man's body then somehow disappears as the man offers a card to you. "Now my part, you will find Runo in precinct 4, she's bound to still be causing havoc with gangs and whatnot in that field of chaos. From what my pet saw, she's a little bundle of thunder and lightning. I wish you the best, my friend." As you turn the card over, instead of any suits or numbers there is a small map of district 4, with an X upon a small clearing.
The elf remains silent for a moment then groans, dropping the shard onto the floor. She places both hands on her wound, putting pressure onto it. "Y-you two are Boros, if the both of you can find me. Then t-those maniacs can find me too. Damn it." Kieryl takes his hand off his mace, looking about the abandoned house. "From what I can tell, she's the only one to have been in here for a while. Dust ain't been bothered except by her and when we busted in. Don't see any other trails."
After a moment of following Tin street and heading into the outskirts nearby, you come across the clearing described in the card map. Your guildhall towers above you a short distance, crackling with energy and a few distant explosions. The clearing is a small little plaza that has a few bodies lying about, they moan as they affirm they're still alive. The citizens there are helping them up, their clothes singed and skin burned badly. No one is dead but most are hurt, injured or burned severely.
The girl bites at the open air before you, "Those spiders beat me, they should have killed me! I'm not going to soil my honor by surrendering to you weaklings!" She snarls.
I thinks that you probably know more than us.. they hurt my friend on the way through so we hide in this building. I was to afraid to come out, there was a great number of them. I can't be sure but...Yevna leans into the Arrester, as if telling him a secret. She whispers But I thought I spotted the insignia of the Boros. I had thought that the Azorius are responsible for this district, why would there kind be here and where would you find them?

"Please, good sir." Thwuut replies. "There is more than an initial might makes right. You saw that the spiders were strong because they work together. If you work with us, perhaps it will help you grow in strength, too. We just want to know whether your shaman's works will be hazardous to yourself or us. Please comply, it is best for everyone."
The arrester's face hardens, "...So you were close enough to have a look then? And they even hurt your friend as well...We have a medic in our squad who can look at it, how about you come with me and we can have your friend fixed and see what else you remember."

"Excuse me for the intrusion, but do you know the means by which this apparent calamity was instigated, and its perpetrators?"
And that's all I have to say about that.
