"Alright, I confess! We were sent here to crush any opposition to the Scarlet Cross. We've received word from our spies that you saw the king, and we wish to overthrow the king."

To EmileTherese & HunterOrien

"My spiders know how to web cage and a few other tricks, but they're only as smart as livestock. They can't go undercover, and they also are too large to get around without people noticing and screaming. Get whatever citizens you can that are willing to fight, but only those you trust won't spread to everyone the Dao's arrival. A lot of people still don't know."

"Red Blood Group? No afraid I have not. I come from the farms and have spent my days there helping those who need it."

Thrudor now waits to hear the woman's response before asking any questions of either of them 

"Overthrow the king? Why would you want to do that? You wish for the Glass Dao to sit on the throne?"

To Antlan & Kirby121

"No, we are a rival faction. We turned the dao to glass so our master could sit on the throne. That is the same with a small disbanded group calls the wardens, although they are our enemies as well."

Morgot heads to the top of the stairs and sees the cultists and the citizens talking. He calls in, "What is going on here?"

An old woman dressed in a black suit says "Help! These man are attacking me, I'm just a poor old woman." She starts crying. [Fake Crying. Deception 5]

Insight: 7

Morgot glares in anger at the man/men. "What do you hope to gain from terrorizing a elderly woman? I've sworn an oath not to enter this room, but I've sworn a greater oath to protect the innocent."  he walks slowly into the room, hefting his own longsword.

*This'll be interesting, but it's what Morgot's reaction would be.*

Margot would see an old lizard man turn around and face him.  “Hello there. there seems to be a misunderstanding. You see I came up here after finding a druidic book because I heard fighting. This mousefolk was fighting this lady, that fella and that goblin. These three seem to be a part of a cult called….what was the bc I’ll called young lady?” Thrudor turns to the clearly old woman but technically she’s younger than him and asks her what she had said earlier “Something about killing the glass Dao?”

[it's two humans and a goblin. Small detail but still.]
Clapper chimes in.
"I'll admit, I'm the one that started the attack, but they were threatening me with sharp stuff, and trying to get me to kill the king.
Now what's all this you're talking about? Dao? Turning something to Glass?
Ah! yes, scarlet cross. that's the blood thing she mentioned. Pardon, I'm very new to the area."
Clapper puts away his blades, comfortable that these strangers meant no harm.

"Fine...But if you have any items that might help us survive and gather people, we could definitely use them."

The old woman suddenly disappears and reappears on the stairs, running down the stairs as fast as she can. She's 30 feet away from teleporting plus 2 extra feet away from running before you can react.

He points to his handcrafted bow made of root and his monster Quill arrows. "I've got no real equipment but my staff. Actually um..." He scratches his chin "I'm actually banned from every entering the city again due to resisting and commanding the king, then breaking out of prison and accidentally killing a high general who tried to keep me in, etc. ... nobody's perfect. I'd be happy to donate some spider silk? I'm assuming you don't want any though."

Clapper would like to eldritch blast her.
To hit: 15
Damage: 3 force damage.
"NO!"

She's knocked down and rolls down the stairs. Athletics to get back up and keep going (DC 15) 8

You remember nothing with your roll, but assume it's basically strands of spider web.

(Ah never mind my attack....he hit her and knocked her down the stairs...I will modify it)

(modified)

Thrudor sees the mousefolk blast the old lady down the stairs....Thrudor shrugs and says "Well if she wasn't dead she may be close now....Seems that getting answers from her may be hard.....Well good luck to you then." Thrudor walks around the 3rd floor looking at the books and commands his spider to do the same

"Hm, I guess one strand for a new bowstring wouldn't hurt," Whisper says, somewhat disappointed but willing to work with what they have.
