Lila says a very bad word as the Watch presence increases, and starts slowly backing towards the alley, body tense and anger hot in her eyes as she glares daggers at the Watch and says in a brief aside to Valen. "You're lucky he didn't do anything magical, or there wouldn't be any need to get him out of a cell."
"You have just brutally assaulted a member of the Watch and you argue with me - take him now!" The voice turns to rage quickly as the Cleric points his staff at Brock "Kneel" he shouts at the pit fighter who feels the force of the words try and bring him to his knees.
Brock DC15 Wisdom Save or find yourself kneeling in the dirt (and if so those attacks are going to be made with Disadvantage on the Watchmen - (lower of your rolls or mine if necessary 8, 25, 26)
Two of the guards make a beeline for Brock maces raised. The battle is quickly going against the locals, several more are down on the ground and the Watch are working efficiently in small groups chasing off or beating down the others.

"Stop," Wallis exclaims towards the guards but loud enough for Lila and Valen to hear too. "Please," she adds now moving towards Brock with hands raised and no weapons drawn. "Please no more," she adds again pleadingly as she moves towards her friend. "They did attack unarmed men. If you represent justice and faith at all you will stop this madness and call off your guards," she adds her tone insistent.
Lila mutters a curse as Wallis runs up to the guards. "Get yourselves killed, why don't you?" she mumbles, casually slipping her hand into her cloak, still glaring daggers at the Watchmen.
"Don't tell me what I represent, kneel and surrender yourself along with the muscle-brained lump and you may not be executed." The cleric points dramatically at Wallis "Do it now!"
He gestures to the guards protecting him and sends them onwards towards the ranger.
The two guards approaching Brock reach their target, one takes a solid hit in the stomach and winces, they both lash out with their maces.
Guard 1
Attack 12 for 7 bludgeoning damage.
Guard 2
Attack 23 for 3 bludgeoning damage.
Both guards miss badly, the first dropping his mace as he does.
Wallis is ten feet from Brock and the guards, the cleric a further twenty feet away to the side, three more guards approaching Wallis in between,(map tomorrow) Lila and Valen 20 feet from Wallis in the mouth of an alleyway.?
If we keep going it'll need to be initiative rolling time.

Valen and Lila are not assumed hostiles at this time by the Watchmen and the Cleric
Lila grits her teeth. "I am so. Damn. Sick. Of the stupid Watch and their evil Blades throwing their weight around like they can do whatever they want." Her hands ball into fist. "I hate this feeling. That there's nothing I can do." She sighs. "No, we can't fight a whole city of guards. And I won't-I can't be arrested by them."

Initiative! 6 (OOC: How many villagers are still helping? and Is the cleric on a horse? I was thinking in my mind he was but it would be better if he wasn't :D )
No horse, there are about six or seven villagers still standing but they are pretty battered and the two Watch focusing on them will probably have them running off soon. Which will leave you and Wallis outnumbered 8 or 9 to 2 unless something happens.

Wallis will not kneel. She does not recognize the authority of the cleric!
"How can you be so blind to the suffering of these people? So empty of faith," Wallis adds remaining unarmed and markedly not pulling her weapons. "Good people," she calls out next. "This man tried to help you," she gestures at Brock. "I will not abandoned my friend," she adds standing besides Brock.

Lila pales slightly. "Dammit," she whispers. "Dammit, dammit, dammit."
She looks caught between jumping into the fray and running away.

Valen has a similar look on his face. "Idealists, huh? So, do you really feel like fighting a city full of guards?" he asks Lila. "I know I don't."
(DM: Does Valen know of any high ranking guards that he could disguise himself as? 20, no mods, do with it what you need.)

Valen doesn't have to make a combat action but it should be six seconds max worth of activity.

(DM: I assume there crates, barrels etc. to hide behind in the alley to stay out of sight?)
"Well then, we will help them a little later when emotions are a little less volatile," Valen replies.
