Piers tries to recognise where he has seen those snakes (19 nature ) "

"I think it is time for us to leave at once.we got what we need" says quickly 

“Quickest way out would be?” Drux asks the group but while looking at the lord in hopes to pry an answer from him on that since he’s been so forth coming.

"i-its a teleportation circle that goes from the zhent's hideout a-and. . .and the necromancer's hideout. . ." he says, covering his face

the robed man sighed "yea, yeah, our hideout, now- wait what did you say?" he looks at lord gralhund, walking towards him and holding him by the collar "what do you mean that a ******* necromancer has acess to the teleportation circle? DO YOU KNOW THAT  YOU'RE PUTTING US ALL IN DANGER?!" he says, fighghint his urge to punch the noble "he won't go away, don't worry, as long as he doesn't walk in the circle he won't be able to escape." he responds to Cat, almost choking the lord 

"s-stop p-please! g-guh. . ."

the only desk is the one with the snakes, and there does not seem to have any traps on it. apparently the assault was a surprise.

piers recognizes the snakes as Flying snakes. most people capture them and train them to act as messengers, and they are found in remote jungles

"as an exit. . .i don't think that using the circle right now would be a good idea. we could end up in that necromancer Hideout. . .we should make a run for it."

Cat looks at the liar stuck in the circle. Apparently, her charm wasn't good enough, she'll have to work on that. 

Making the sign for Zhent "So you work with the elf?  Teleport the lard, to the, Zhent hideout have them question him and, wipe his memory of this advent. Then send him back! I know how good they are." She gets ready to go, but hands her new, friend a sheet of paper writing a note saying just that. Ending with Too D.S. (Davil Starsong) 

"Grab your snakes, Call your men lets, go! You may want them to grab your dead. Unless your sure they wont talk."

Piers dont knowing why is taking so long feels anxious "can someone explain to me why we are still here?Am I the only one who worries about the city guards?"

the man raised an eyebrow, nodding "hopefully we will get something out of him. that has turned into an . . . interesting turn of events. OH, before you leave, remember. ..you never saw me." he comments, grabbing the note and the cage with floating snakes "oh, and destroy the circle, please. using a sword to mess up the Symbols should be enough. there is nothing to return there. . . leave the dead, try to act as you've never been there. i know those people, it's best if you stay out of their business." he said, entering the circle and disappearing. 

you hear another scream behind you. . . only one of the thugs left, less time to escape until the city guard arrives.

She quickly draws her sword scratches the circle best she can "Lets go" and heads out the door urging the others to come with. (she returns the sword to its sheath.) 

She whispers

"I'm not sure what just happened but the man, obviously, didn't need rescuing. Other than the letter, we seem to none the wiser. We need to take this Letter to Renare Neverember. He knows people that can help. I'd like to check the house of inspired hands if we can. To ask about the automaton we heard about from our gardener friend."

Drux runs after cat

Piers without wasting time follows 

the group manages to go down the stairs, and the two thugs where not here anymore. apparently they aready left, and you hear a scream outside:

"THE CITY WATCH IS HERE! THANK GODDESS!" you can hear pretty loudly the Gate from the entrance being burst open, and soldiers storming outside. there is not much time to flee.. . 

"We need to get out that side door, now! But Lore I think Kess should take a look first. Piers I hope you have more fog spells."

Cat says quietly, but urgently as she rushes, to the lower door.

Piers nods affirmative "Yes,yes I can and  I do have a few tricks in my sleeve.I could delay them by trapping in vines and then use fog to cover our exit".

Being glad he doesn't panic, readies himself to cast the spell when the signal is given

"We mainly, need to get out without being seen."

“Can we use the horses, whether as a ride or another distraction? Now that the gates may be open we could conceal our way out with them?”

"We're not going that way. Too complicated and I don't want to become a horse thief."

(if you have abovevtt you can look at this map)

"We're going to need a fog cloud, right at the edge of the outside of the exit door, Piers, Then we simply walk out side keep to the edge of the walls of the Manor by feeling it. Once we're at the edge of the cloud, we walk to the center of the road, then out. If anyone asks, we just say we been got caught in the cloud and just found our way out."

"Did I ever tell you how much I like your plans?But there is something that troubles me...what about those dogs outside? We need to move fast and make sure we avoid them.On top of that the city guards might bring hounds with them" 

“Great call Cat. Ok let’s get a move on. Best we are out of here quickly. Keep the lead.”

Cat rolls her eyes "The side door leads to the street, I heard the sounds."

Piers follows Cats instructions and  once they start moving will cast fog cloud where he was told to
