The cat that is Pavla begins to shake, growing and shifting back into human form. This takes less than a second, and then Pavla is nodding in agreement with Hardal.
Holissa looks around and counts the people around. "I do believe you're right, wasn't there another human? Well, more loot for those of us who made it out. Lets get to it then."
Hardal dusts off his armor after clearing the wall and approaches those that made it out before him, far enough from the guard's inspecting eyes.
"It seems all of us made it out without alerting the guards."
He looks around and sees the person that went ahead wasn't around to meet them.
"Let us continue down the Amber Road and find a suitable place to make an ambush while the sun is still here."
As you say that, your owl returns to you. Calling to you as it perches on a nearby tree. You take a moment to receive the info the bird has gathered. Mostly just small groups of people and a few couriers walk along the road in the forest. No caravans or carriages are to be seen further down the road.
Onyx, traverses the city streets, while doing so keeping an ear to the conversations as he walks by to hear of any shipments of value coming from the amber road to the south that someone may be speaking of.

Well you know of caravans coming from the amber road, but nothing of any details of the said caravans. You come to the southern gate as face the task of getting past the guards now.
I come down from the sky and fly a few circles around the group in bat form before shifting back into my natural demon spawn form. “He must have got nicked, poor ****, but we must trudge on without. Who knows what happened to him. Shit, as far as we know, the gent could have been a spy with the guard.”
As Onyx tries to pass through the gate, a guard spots him, "Stop right there, criminal scum!", the four guards move in to you, pushing the peasants out of the way. The rest of the team is about 200 yards past the gate. They hear a small commotion as they move down the amber road. Frightened screaming and guards yelling coming from the gate.
“Well maybe not a spy,” I say with a chuckle hearing the commotion and only assuming the worst. “Now I don’t know everyone else’s feelings on the matter, but I’m not about to get known by the city guard. He’s on his own at this point.”
"Maybe that's what happened. Now, what to do? Rescue a fellow 'criminal scum' and lose this caravan? I'm not sure about that. And I still have a...low profile I'd like to keep."
As soon as the idea comes out of Hardal’s mouth I turn to him. “Either you turn that owl back now or I’ll have no choice but to blast it out of the sky, mate.” I start to ready a fire bolt in my hand as embers start the crackle. “We’re not getting involved,” I say without a hint of compromise with my tone.
”Sso much for honor between thievess... “he turns around looking to the city gate looking for a cart, a horse, a pack of hen... ( perception? 10 Investigation? 12 ) A little bit if ssubtle help iss what he may need, without exposse oursselvess... May be enough. If he doess not esscape then... “

You spot a stable full of horses nearby the gates. A few carts are parked there as well. The stable is just a few yards away from the gate and you can only spot animals there. You don't know if there's someone or how many are over at the stable.
Seeing the situation he is in, Hardal calmly explains his reason as he glares at Valkaras.
"If I didn't have to explain the contents of the job earlier because someone insisted on knowing more at Croc's Rest we could have left him right now.
But because that person, the one being captured as we waste our time bantering here, knows our plan on raiding the caravan, who knows when he'll sing of it.
So let the owl do his thing and hope he successfully escape from the guards and meet us up later down the road."

Pavla turns, raising a thin eyebrow.
"Maybe that's what happened. Now, what to do? Rescue a fellow 'criminal scum' and lose this caravan? I'm not sure about that. And I still have a...low profile I'd like to keep."
And that's all I have to say about that.
"I'll try to lend aid and if he managed to escape succesfully, I say he would be a good addition to our roster."
Hardal orders his owl to pick up his longsword and drop it from above, pointing the blade at the yelling people.

Pavla sighs and looks over at Hardal.
"Is this man your friend? Do you owe him? Why do you care so much about saving him? If he is any good, he will escape without your help."
And that's all I have to say about that.
Rakish looks to all.
