Having just taken a hefty mace blow to the head, Jevyn's pain was alleviated by Tak's healing word. Seeing the menagerie before them, he looked down at the fallen bouncer, up to Tak, and then down to Lazarus, Leaves, and Locke. "Well this won't be good."
Following the hastily assembled congregation of Watchmen you run to a glowing red circle filled with strange runes carved into the floor of the mess hall, and in a flash of red light you are transported to the desired location, District 13.
You are greeted by a scene of chaos and ruin. Hundreds of unarmed men and women are being clubbed by people wearing the white and black garb of the Watch. Whatever this once was, now it can only be described as mass murder. Your fellow Watchmen, some with expressions of cruel delight and some with expressions of resignation join the gathered soldiers in their grim task.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Shiv will attempt to see to around and see of he can tell what is going on or what had happened.. he is also going to try to see of the people enjoying the fighting are ready members of the watch.

Shiv will start yelling "Citizens go back to your homes!"
Shiv will make his way through the crowd, yelling at anyone that was unarmed to disperse, picking up the injured and pointing them away from the fighting and also stepping in between any overzealous watchmen and the rioters. The whole time he will keep yelling "Return to your homes, those of you fighting the watch I destroying property will be arrested" His barbed tail working to knock clubs out of the hands of the most violent members of the watch while he worked to break up what hs could without violence.
Several Watchmen turn on Shiv. "Who do you think you are? This is a criminal offense!" One purple-faced Watchman yells, swinging at the viashno with his club. Attack: 13 Damage: 7
The battle, if such a one-sided conflict can even be called a battle, continues unabated.
"Hey! watch what you are doing their buddy! I am a member of the watch as well" The viashino will say easily stepping out of the way of watchmans attack and pointing to his badge. "We were sent here to deal with a riot, not to kill innocent civilians. Is this how witherwick trained you to conduct yourselves?" Shiv will say moving between the guards and the rioters and placing his hands on the hills of his shirt swords but not drawing them.
Shiv will try to find one of the rioters and ask them what is going on. "What is happening here? Why are you not in your homes? What was done to provoke this response from the guard?"
A man lying on his back, one ear bleeding, mumbles a reply. "We're members of... of the Craftsmans Guild. We... we were protesting... low wages... we didn't use no weapons or nothing..." He lapses into unconsciousness.
"Why would the Watch Officers do that? Battering an unarmed civilian is-" The man passes out before Atlas can complete his thought. "I do not understand..." He begins, looking to Shiv. "Why was such force necessary?"
Shiv, looking to Atlas will give him a serious look, his tail twitching furiously... "We have to put an end to this..... you with me?" The Viashino will say grabbing at the metal plates of the warforged, looking up at him with wild eyes... "we have to get the craftsman to get leave and we need to stop the violent watchmen.."
He looks to the Viashino and then to the masses of battered and beaten civilians. It goes against everything he's been taught. The officers are supposed to uphold the law. Keep the peace. Maintain order for the betterment of the civilians. "...I do not see how beating civilians half to death serves to protect and better them....We should find who is in charge" Atlas gives a nod Shiv.
Shiv will quickly climb on to the back of the warforged and look around, trying to find the commanding officer that is allowing or ordering the abuse of these people.
Atlas will move through the mass of people, allowing Shiv to keep look atop him as they search for the leader here. Surely there is some mistake. The Officer in charge needs to be made aware of the grievous breach in duty.

Shiv cannot identify the spark which created this inferno, but he does determine that the people fighting are legitimate members of the Watch.

OOC: Woo boy, catching up is hard. Can I assume that Atlas is there with Shiv?
(Sure. Sorry about that.)

"We're just following orders. Stay out of our bloody way." The man snarls, turning on a gnome and hitting him full in the face.

"And what might those order be and who gave em!?" Shiv will say with an angry snarl
The man does not bother to answer and you soon lose him in the mass of writhing bodies.
