Alden nods, "Very good, very astute of him." He turns to his guests, "Friends, it seems Daask's plans have been foiled. We can trust that The Watch will be arriving soon to clean up the rest of the issues." He turns to the House Vadalis head, "And Dalina, I am so sorry this has happened on my premises. Obviously I hope this doesn't effect any of the negotiations we had earlier about our future business arrangements." Dalina gives a non-comital shake of her head and asks Jamun next to her, "Who are these people Jamun, do you know them?" Jamun looks at you all then his eyes go wide, "Erix! This is a Dragonmarked member of our house Dalina. Erix d'Vadalis. What in The Six are you doing here Erix? Who are these people you are with?" The elf and dwarf behind them also look interested in the answer.
"Good afternoon, Jamun."Erix says with respect and a slight smile, after which he does a little bow to his House's leader "Madam d'Vadalis"
"You might have heard from my parents that I took a swing towards the adventurous life, and these are the people that I found to be starting their adventuring life aswell. They are a good bunch, we have saved Caden twice now, and as was said Vishtai asked us to be here, just in case."
He says, wondering how it is, that it is Alden's son whose in the firing line everytime it seems.

Dalina nods, "It's good to see members of our House taking up the cause of returning this city from the lawlessness that comes with all it's laws. If they would just learn to better work WITH nature, rather than AGAINST it, the people of Sharn would be better off." She turns to leave the room and motions Jamun to walk with her. Jamun smiles at Erix and puts a hand on his shoulder.
You can now hear the sounds of The Watch arriving, running through the manor downstairs and rounding up the stragglers. Do you want to ask any questions or doing anything before you are forced to deal with The Sharn Watch?
You wait out in foyer area upstairs while The Watch eventually make there way up here. At first a few guards walk in, then the officers. Two of them you know, Commander Brittle and Sergeant Vilroy both look somewhat confused. The third officer is a very dapper looking Dwarf who introduces himself and takes charge of the situation immediately, "I am Commander Belew Yorgan of the Central division of The Sharn Watch, I am here to put an end to this Daask raid with the help of Commander Brittle here who happened to be visiting from the Dura district." He turns to Alden d'Orien and says, "Mister d'Orien, I am so sorry it took us as long as it has to get here, can you explain what has happened here tonight?" Alden looks from Commander Yorgan to you, obviously seeing you as the experts on the events of the evening. You also notice standing behind the members of the Watch is Vishtai, who is also looking at you, but with a slight scowl.
Alden turns back to Commander Yorgan, "I believe Daask was here to capture us specifically. For some reason they wanted powerful Dragonmarked nobles. But these people saved us, sorry I didn't catch all of your names. What do you call yourselves?"
"Erix Vadalitis of House d'Vadalis is my name sir." Erix answers looking at Vishtai, hoping everything is gonna go right when he says the following "Master Vishtai, behind you, asked us to be undercover at the house in case anything was gonna happen, with all the important people that were invited he deemed that to be the savest thing to do."

Mark will add, "We go by the rouge and my name is Mark Finkler, I also work in Banking Security." He will then peer at Vishinti, "Thank the gods that Vishinti called upon our services again and were able to stop the Daask from doing anything terrible."
Vishtai keeps his mouth closed as Commander Yorgan nods and continues, "The Rouge huh? Never heard of you before, but adventuring groups often pop up these days, I expect we may see more of you now that Daask has made such a move. For them to strike at the heart of The Dragonmarked families makes them enemy number one not only for the Houses, but also for The Watch. Commander Brittle and I will be taking this to the High Commander to try and make a task force to bring Daask into line." He looks back at Brittle and Vilroy who both nod. "For now everyone can relax as we mop up any stragglers hiding around the compound or beyond. Feel free to mingle here for a bit wile I oversee the end of this ill-fated coup."
Commander Yorgan leaves the room and escorts The Dragonmarked leaders back to there rooms, unless anyone has anything they want to say to them. Vishtai leaves with Alden and Caden but gives you all a sombre nod, reminding you of the deal you made with him: He won't rat you out if you agree to stay away from the Oriens in the future.
Finally you are left with Commander Brittle and Seargant Vilroy, who finally have a chance to talk to you. Vilroy gasps, "By the Host, you did well dealing with a bloody Daask raid in the middle of the mission! You wouldn't believe our surprise when the call came in to the office as we were trying to distract Yorgan. We almost thought YOU had been confused as Daask thugs and had completely botched the job. Clever thinking grabbing the Helm before the party even started. I admit I hadn't even considered it a possibility, but you pulled it off. So, where is the Helm?"
"Yes, that was clever thinking on our part, indeed, except, well, we don't have the Helm. Ash and her lot made off with it. We had a difficult choice to make, and we chose saving peoples' lives first, but we promise, we'll get the Helm back."
Vilroy looks obviously disapointed, even angry, "You know, it's kind of The Watch's role to protect people. We employed you to do this job because you can do things that we can't, and..." But just as she's starting to berate you, Commander Brittle steps forward. "Enough Seargent! These people, The Rouge, performed a great service to the city tonight. We should be commending them." The old and battered Warforged's shoulders slump, "I think at this point we should give up on the Helm, it was a bad idea to steal it in the first place. Let Daask keep it for all the good it will do them now. You heard Yorgan, he wants to start a new task force just to handle them, we finally a way to beat Daask." He then turns to you all, "We will pay you the agreed upon price for the job. You went beyond what you needed to do tonight and I thank you for that." Brittle hands you the gold, (I believe it was 5000gp). Vilroy looks shocked but keeps her mouth shut. Brittle goes on, "It might be best if you make yourselves scarse. It seems you've convinced everyone of your virtues in all this, but I doubt you want to do a formal debried with Commander Yorgan."
"Thank you, both" Erix answers as he accepts the payment. "We'll leave you all to clean this place up than."

Elero will keep quiet at the start, since he's dressed as a worker, and hope one of the lords will speak up for us.

"Um, well, my name's Elero Muhendis, sir."
