Dev feels a shade of disappointment when Progo first replies. Adventuring is a lonely pastime and Progo seems like a lively character. Too lively and perhaps smarter than he gives on to get involved with the likes of the Nameless Ones.

But when his cart shudders to a halt, when the axle snaps, overloaded as the conveyance is, the teenager winces in sympathy, yet also, hope glimmers.

”Oh! Your cart!” The tiefling exchanges another glance with Lokilia to be sure they’re in agreement, then urges both to join him in departing the scene.

”There were Pale Guardsmen nearby. Let’s tell them about the… bodies…,” he makes a face, “so, like, no little kid has to, like, stumble over them in the street? But we don’t have to say we were involved. Normont can, like, patch things up later?”

He’s already walking but waits for Lokilia’s response before hailing the Guard when they near them. 

Lokilia gives a glance to Progo's cart as the axel breaks. "You need help carrying something? But we've got to go. We have a place. But let's get moving!" she says, a bit worried now that they are not going to be fast enough to get ahead of the guard.  She glances at Dev, ready to follow him. "You want to tell the guards about the bodies and not just leave it to Normont?"  She sounds a little worried about that too, but perhaps Dev is right. "Yea, we'll tell them."

"You WANT to call the guards over!? Perhaps you have a different kind of interaction with guards but they and Progo have a love hate relationship, they love to hate Progo. Bodies about and Progo's covered in blood that's not all Progo's... Progo hopes you two are smooth talkers. Well if we must, Progo still an upstanding visitor and believes is in the right." Progo feels nervous around guards, he's had to talk himself out of more then one unfavorable spot before being a half orc in a questionable line of work. He has found avoiding the guards serves as useful then asking for thier help, now adding dead bodies to the mix will be even harder to justify.

“I think so…,” Dev answers Lokilia. If the group comes across guardsmen and they seem approachable — or even better, recognized as connections with Normont — Dev will alone inform them of the bodies. The tiefling carries no weapons or visible armor and his thin arm, though possessing grace and teen awkwardness in equal proportion, is hardly threatening when he raises it to point to where the bodies are. He mentions Normont’s name as a friend. 
(I’m hoping no roll is needed, but rolled an even 10 Deception if required.)

Lokilia is a little reluctant at first to just let Dev speak to the guard alone. But she is willing to go along with it. Afterall, if something happens then at least she would be able to alert Normont.  She glances to Progo as the tiefling wanders over to the guardman. (Presuming that happens of course!) "I get it. I'm not sure how likely a guard would be to believe us that those folks just came after us. Our companion, Normont, he was a Rifle..."  She pauses a moment. "Well, Rifle Something. More or less part of the Pale Guard. He knows many of them and would be able to speak for us. He's actually meeting with Lady de Rolo. Cassandra, not the one that is associated with Trinket. He's a bear, and part of the ruling family!"  She seems rather pleased by this information.

As she talks, she moves along past where Dev left them, slowing a bit but not wanting to just stop and look. If possible though she does sneak a glance over now and then to see how things are going. (Perception: 6)

Progo watching Dev approach the guard as he listens to Lokilia, eyes getting bigger and bigger the more she explains. " So you mean to tell Progo that your friend is an ex guard who has connections in guards, will talk for you to guards but is currently busy talking to," Progo audibly gulps, "Lady de Rolo and a bear ruling their family. You wouldn't be related to said bear... would you? You know, after the whole bear thing you did back there." Progo found himself more concerned with what kind of situation he stumbled into and forgetting about the dead men around them. Perhaps this is Progo's opertunity to get into some real places to collect authentic treasures that don't need fixing to sell. But what would this guard friend have trouble with Progo? Progo had never experienced dealing with ex guards, perhaps they are more reasonable to see reason with Progo. He was aware of Cassandra de Rolo, but this was first he had heard about Trinket de Rolo...

Lokilia laughs. "I'm not a bear! I can transform into a bear though I guess. There's many animals I can change into."  She then continues, "Yes, our friend has connections to the guard. And he's not talking to the Lady de Rolo with the bear. He's talking to the other Lady de Rolo."  She pauses, trying to piece together what she'd learned when looking at the portraits yesterday. "The bear Lady de Rolo is wife of Lord de Rolo. But the other Lady de Rolo is Lord de Rolo's sister. Cassandra? Umm, yea, I think so." 

"There's a bear cub too. I forget his name," she adds. She seems to be just talking randomly, but she does seem to be keeping an eye on Dev through as she's talking.
