The sapphire case opened noiselessly and you can see 5 large sapphires and a star sapphire ring. There is a pressure trap under the ring, not difficult. You pass it skilfully. Kyreth takes the glass gems from Exa for swopping. It must be the ring with a Genie in it!
You skilfully evade the trap, here at close range you can see a recess with poison needles, and heave a sigh of relief, though your hands feel as though you had something sticky in them without the mess. You slip the egg into the depths of the bag so it won't be seen if you are searched.
"Is think that's it. Time for us to depart I reckon." He looks around "If anybody asks, we stayed to help the poor shocked bard that everybody else ignored in their rush to escape."
The tiefling can't resist a delighted chuckle at their success, smirking at the mention of helping his poor self. "My, how heroic of you! I'll be sure to tell everyone of your bravery in song."
He hurries to grab a glass of water and then back to the blind spot on the dias, dropping his disguise and throwing the water on himself to make it seem like the others used it to startle him awake. He then puts on his best terrified face and hurries out to join the nobles.
"Oh gosh, sir, you look very unwell! The fright you must have had. Come, come, this way," she says with a wink, starting to play the part with glee before any need for it.
"The cleaning corridor?" she asks her companions and looks after where the rest of the gala guests had fled.
You can still hear the sound of the guards outside, and the doors keep being hit by something heavy. You have no choice but to follow the rest through the cleaning corridor.
One of the guards has carried Lady Graham downstairs and left her sitting there on a bench. Those left are trying to kill the 'monster' still thinking its magical rather than an animatronic, hacking at the ever attacking dinosaur.
The other door stands open with Horthnar holding watch. He sees you and says Quickly now mingle with the other guests. He looked pointedly at the bag of Holding. All went well I take it.
Lunging in to place a hit squarely in the chest of the Allosaurus, she hits the door to the cockpit which partly opens. Maryam found that she could see the cockpit. There was no-one there that she can see. Suddenly the tail sweeps her way and she is sent flying towards the stairs.
OOC Sorry the bold text won't change back to normal.
Having done her best to draw attention to herself and how her sprained ankle is really giving her an excruciating pain, and that she would need magical attention immediately or her husband would stop all funding to the museum, the young waterdhavian and quite entitled lady starts to move towards the exit once all guards have returned upstairs to fight the rampaging Allosaurus, limping heavily at first but then slowly slowly returning to a normal graceful walk as she plans to head back to the tavern for the rendez-vous.
Thistle
The tiny mischievous fey huffs with displeasure as the cockpit is revealed and decides the fun is over, for now, setting all gears on full throttle to give the marvellous machine a last hurrah before likely being taken out of comission for good. Keeping his mistress updated on events in the museum he flutters down to the entrance and awaits the accomplices to make sure they don't run into any trouble in the last minute of the heist.
Kyreth looks at the dwarf "I'm sure I don't know what you mean" he replies in mock innocence "We're just two lowly students helping a distressed bard and his bag of instruments."
He looks at Exa and Mavilius "Are we going out through the front?"
"I don't know about you, but I could use a big mug of cream after that. There's a tavern across the way," Exa suggests cryptically, aware that there might be some wandering eyes and ears about.
The Allosaurus is slowing down, it is mainly thrashing at the door. There is a clear path to the stairs as long as you keep to the left hand side.
Hrothnar
Now everyone we can escape follow me! He touches Mavilius elbow lightly, can you shout louder than me? Let's get out of here! He heads off at a run, a stream of nobles and students following. Lucina and Heronn at the front. The young Captain Walters elbowing his way forward. They are running to the Entrance Hall and its unlocked front doors.
With a subtle flick of his fingers, he casts Thaumaturgy, his voice swelling with supernatural volume as he throws an arm toward the front.
“Everyone! Follow the dwarf! Move, move! Stay together!” he bellows, the booming command echoing through the marble halls like a captain over a battlefield.
Feigning wide-eyed panic, he hurries alongside the stream of nobles and students, blending into the crowd.
Hrothnar runs forward at a quick trot, the nobles and students pushing forward in a mob like manner. He finds Maryam Bikram sprawled on the stairs clutching her arm. Without ceremony he picks her up and takes her with him.
The noise of the fight with the Allosaurus is beginning to slow down, it's clockwork animatronics running out of power.
Eriniel the secretary comes flying out of her room, a longsword in hand. What's happening?
Hrothnar says Necromancer its following us. At that he gestured to the crowd behind him.
Suddenly there were renewed screams as the skeleton of the Sea Dragon began to move, as if fighting to be free. It pulled at each wing above them. Hrothnar sped into Eriniels office and sat Maryam in a chair, she'd need a cleric to heal her.
The crowd screamed again and rushed for the doors pulling them wide to exit as the Sea Dragon swung madly in its chains, a clear voice screaming with joy. Thistle was having fun.
Exa joins the crowd rushing toward the exit, doing her best to fit in with the panicking gala guests. All the while she keeps a close eye on her companions so they don't get separated.
It takes all of her self control not to let her deft fingers dip into the rich pockets of the nobles.
Once outside and there's some room to separate from the throng, Exa slips away a little bit toward the tavern where they're to meet up. She looks for Manvilius and Kyreth, hoping Delilah made her way there separately.
Kyreth lets the crowd carry him forward keeping his eyes open and making sure he doesn't lose the bag. Once out of the doors he makes for the tavern, looking for his partners-in-crime.
Lady Graham enters the Sage's Quill in graceful elegance, still wearing her mask as she scans he room for known faces. After having some trouble reaching Thistle she realizes her tiny accomplice is probably caught up in enjoying the moment of utter chaos back at the museum. She trusts him to leave before the City Watch arrived at least.
Arne watches you enter his tavern and starts cleaning a silver platter. Your party is in a private room upstairs, third on the right. He says So Exa, I'll send you up a goblet of cream with a long spoon, the rest are supping my best brew and a superb Waterdhavian red. You look pleased so all went well?

"Go, go, go!" Exa hisses and makes a beeline for the cleaning corridor, tucking the magical bag, where the egg is now hidden, under an arm.
"What a night," she says with obvious excitement.
