Silva Druid
Silva will also make her way to the Townmaster's Hall to Regroup. On her way she will attempt to identify or learn anything about the ice storm that Glasstaff summoned.
Pops emits a low growl. He eyes the approaching hailstorm worriedly. Still at the southwest corner of the Townmaster's Hall, he's considering ducking back into the vacant hall for cover, although part of him fears he could become trapped inside. (On his turn he'll probably take another pot shot, but we'll see what the Redbrands do next...)
Petros, Silva and Grum make their way back to the Townmaster's Hall. The hail pelts along the tin roof of the building before almost instantly cutting out. From where Pops is, you can see that the storm began to collapse within itself. As the storm stops, you look out to find the Redbrands out of sight and a small building across the square on fire.
Pops sighs, squints, and grimaces. "I don't like this," he grumbles. He puts away his bow and picks up his dropped blade.
(Which building is on fire? Any sounds of distress from within? Any townsfolk around?)
"D'ya suppose that was just a big show so they could beat a hasty retreat?" he remarks to no one in particular. "Maybe it's high time we get the hell out of this one-horse town as well."
"Seems to me like the storm was to cover their tracks while they ran like cowards. I have no attachment to this place and would happily get out of here. But to go where? It seems like the common folk in this place could do with some help to get out from under the wizard's influence. Pops, where do you suggest we go?"
"We've got some unfinished business. Our employer was captured a few days ago and, looks like, brought to a godforsaken goblin cave some miles from here. I'd still like to clear out that filthy hole, but we could use your help. We can come back and tackle these morons afterwards."
"Clearing out a goblin cave sounds like fun. And at least there's no second-guessing to work out which of them you can trust. You can't trust any of them, but at least you can trust that you can't trust them! It seems Glasstaff has just retreated to recover and strengthen his position, so I say we get out of here if we can, leave Glasstaff to stew, clear out the goblins, and come back to Glasstaff later, when he's not on alert for us."
"I made a vow to Westin that I would help his people. I intend to keep that vow. If that house fire spreads it will not only harm the villagers but could spread to the woods as well. I say we help the villagers put out the fire and then continue with the task at hand."
(I wasn't sure whether Grum had seen the house fire yet, given my earlier perception roll) Grum looks in the direction Silva is gesturing and sees the house fire.
"Yes, of course. But what can we do to put out the fire? I don't see a well. Damn cowards! Ruining the village to get away from a fight they started!"
Pops scowls and glances around. (Who's where? Are all the players back together at the Townmaster's Hall? Petros still manacled? Everybody have their stuff back? Anyone else visible in the square?)
(I wasn't sure whether Grum had seen the house fire yet, given my earlier perception roll) Grum looks in the direction Silva is gesturing and sees the house fire.
I'd say you can at this point. The storm dies down and you can see through the square now.

You're all back at the townmasters hall. You're able to pick the locks of Petros's manacles. Everything that was taken is found in the townmaster's hall. Petros lute was propped against Harbin's desk as if he was trying to play it. People have started to come out after the action has died down.

Pops
Pops sighs and grumbles, "Yeah, alright, fine."
He slowly strides, with some caution, across the square, toward the burning building, glancing back to see if any of the others will accompany him.
He stops, puts his hands on his hips and takes in the scene - Perception: 12 (Any sounds emanating from the burning house? Any doorways or window that aren't aflame and look safe to open? Any sign of Redbrands or other trouble about? Any nearby buildings in immediate danger of catching fire?)
Petros follows Pops out into the square and toward the burning building. He stands next to Pops surveys the scene. "Pops, we were dead back there. I honestly did not see a way out of that one." He pats Pops on the shoulder. "I wager that is not the first time someone has tried to kill your squirrelly ass, is it Pops?... I get it." Petros pulls out his lute and walks away, making adjustments to the tuning pegs and singing to himself.
Grum.
Grum is simply going to follow Petros back into the Townmaster's Hall to regroup with the others.

Petros
"Is there any reason to pursue these fools?" The sight and smell of smoke weigh a bit heavy on his conscience. "Do we owe these people?"

It's across the square. Appears to be a small shack, possibly a house. Give me a perception check to see if you hear anything.

Silva Druid
"The village I used to visit had a well - If have enough buckets we can try to dose the flames with water."
Silva looks around the town square for a well and buckets. Investigation 19
