Jirak’s snoring Form is leaned face first against the bars for a bit until eventually awoken. He looks confused, but seeing everyone gathering their gear, he lets training take over and starts to put his own armor and weapons in their place, with the handaxes in loops at his hips and the shield, and warhammer in his hands.

Following the others lead, Vena slings her bow and quiver onto her back and straps her shortsword to her left hip before slinging her backpack onto one shoulder. She takes a moment to poke the guard with one foot before crouching and patting him down for any useful items.

You almost fall and trip over a barrel that you didn't spot before and the barrel falls to the ground with a loud 'Thud', on the other side of the door you hear nothing, it's seemingly empty on the other side.
Dart:
Sneaking rations into your pack is not going as smoothly and stealthily as you'd planned, some things fall out of your backpack in the first attempt, but everyone is too busy getting their own gear and dragging the sleeping body of the jailor into the cell to really notice what you're doing, at least you think they don't notice. When you get over to Vena to help with searching the jailor you find a note, "We will come to collect our prize at Dawn. Don't lose them." The note was signed by someone named "Aran" but the name itself does not ring a bell immediately (But you could do a History check to see if you can remember something or let your companions know what you found). You also find another set of keys. The keys that you used to unlock the cell with only has 1 other key to it.
Venatrix:
You find a dagger and some gold pieces (5gp) but other than that you don't see anything of worth on the jailor.
The jailor stirred a little and a soft groan notifies you that the jailor is starting to wake up. He isn't bound or gagged yet.

Jirak will straddle the guard and clap a hand over his mouth. “Do we kill him? I’m just checking because... it’s hard to un-Kill someone once you kill ‘em.”
Vena picks up the dagger and gold, tucking the gold into her pocket and examining the dagger. "I say we kill him. If we let him live, who knows how many others he'll hold captive, might as well save some poor sods the trouble we've just been through"

"Yes, kill him, but I agree who is Aran?" Jade says, "More importantly why did he was these 6 specific people who previously had not known each other or ever interacted before?"

Upon hearing all the commotion, Sibyl (still quietly freaking out), will approach the outside of the cage and listen intently while the guard is interrogated.
She inhales deeply trying to calm herself and uses guidance to gain insight : 26
If she hears any inconsistencies in his story she will say just loud enough for the people closest to her to hear, he's lying.
Carnic gives Sibyl a small smile, but is unable to reply to her thanks as she darts away. Thus, after having passed everyone's items back to them, Carnic joins his human friend by the door, taking his own peek through the bars, while trying to stay stealthy.

Keeping half an ear on the interrogation Dart starts to search around the dungeon they are in. (Are there any other cells, if so other prisoners, crates barrels or containers of any kind, any other equipment or provisions, and finally peaking out the door out of the dungeon if possible.)
You've heard rumours about "Aran" during your travelling. Especially in nearby villages and towns. Some rumours say he has magic and uses it to skin people alive and then eat them, others say that he is a myth. You know however that Aran is a half-orc Warlock that believes he's doing the work of his god. That's all you can remember. Also yes you have 2 sets of keys, one holds 2 keys, one for the cell and you suspect the other one is for the door out. The other one holds 4 keys. When you look around the dungeon you don't see anything else of worth or interesting.
Jirak:
You hit the jailor on the head and he winches and groans. When he regains full consiousness his eyes dart around to each and everyone of your companions and snarls, trying to get away from you and reach for his weapons that are no longer there. He starts trashing about until he hears the name "Aran" and then freezes and trembles a bit "You do not want to know." He says and seems to shrink a bit out of fear by only hearing the name.
Sybil:
The jailor seems to truly be afraid of this Aran figure and is truthful however, you do get the sense that you all need a bit more persuasive to get more information out of him. In the meantime you also have to be fast and stealthy as to not alarm possible enemies near you.
Carnic:
You quietly move about and glance through the little keyhole in the wooden door lined with iron. You can barely make out anything except that there is a staircase on the opposite end.

"I'm fine with it especially if we got all the information out of him we can,” says Jade. "Then we need to work on getting out of here, who has the keys?"
Dart has a sudden flash of inspiration. He whisper's to Sybil who is standing next to him out side of the bars. Tell the others when I snap my fingers pretend to fall asleep again. He then turns and looks at Jade and Jirak. Could I have just a moment with him. Here are the keys. I'll be right there this won't take long.

So I have two sets of keys now? one with two keys and how many on the other?

As the jailer stirs Dart gives a small yelp and doges out of the cage.
Jirak will straddle the guard and clap a hand over his mouth. “Do we kill him? I’m just checking because... it’s hard to un-Kill someone once you kill ‘em.”
Jirak has his hammer raised up ready to hit him.

WAIT! Ask him who 'Aran' is and why they want us. Dart shows the rest of the group the note he found.
"Yes, kill him, but I agree who is Aran?" Jade says, "More importantly why did he was these 6 specific people who previously had not known each other or ever interacted before?"
Jirak will keep his hand across the jailer’s mouth and start tapping on his forehead with the warhammer
”wakey wakey, jailer guts and bake-y.”
Once he’s awake, Jirak will punch him.
16 15 punch damage is 4 (1+strength).
”My new friends have questions about Aran. Answers get you the gag. Anything else, you get the hammer.”
and peel back his fingers a little from his mouth.

After his circle around the room Dart heads back to the cell. Has he said anything about Aran yet?
“Nothing. I say we kill him.” Jirak looks around for any dissent.
