"I just hope the message can get through, especially at this hour."
Quietly to Dora "Make sure we have enough cover here but I think you need to send at least 2 guards with the message and for them to keep their eyes open."
Alice, Jack and Luca come to where Dora and Guilliame are standing near the fire drum. Barrus is currently down on the road and is dutifully keeping a watch out.
'What is going on, Handleader?" asks Luca, who was excluded from the previous conversation. "Has something serious happened?"

"Luca and Jack, you are to take this despatch to the Seeker's Temple. It is for Seeker Lomani or her apprentice Bassily. You are more likely to find the apprentice. We are seeking their aid or guidance. Take care and make haste. The Temple may be under quarantine but if is I can't see them refusing a despatch. Insist on a response as your Hand may be in danger. Any questions?"
Quietly now " Alice, I will ask the magus to put Samel to sleep. You job is to guard the door, no-one other than myself or the magus may enter. I will be on the perimeter and the magus will put himself where he thinks he can do most good. We will maintain a guard until the men return."
I walk over and pick up a cross bow and a quiver of quarrels.
[OOC: The Sleep spell doesn't work like Paul expects (seehere) as it is only a temporary effect. However, I will rule that if the subject isn't aware that they are being affected by the spell and are in a comfortable situation conducive to their falling asleep, then they are likely to continue to sleep after the spell duration finishes.]

OOC A Sleep spell would use all currently available spell casts won't it?
For Guilliame:
[OOC: Correct. Guilliame has one 1st level spell slot left. He would still be able to cast cantrips though and he could also meditate to recover two spell slots (seehere), but a short rest takes an hour.]

"As you say, Handleader," says Alice who grabs a chair from the outside table and a thick plank lying up against the cabin wall and quickly sets about barring the cabin's single window from the outside.
Meanwhile, Luca has turned to Jack and is now being told about the circumstances that have led up to their being sent all the way into the city proper.

"I am just going to have a look at the prisoner if you don't mind."
If noone objects then go across to him and Do a see the arcane.
[OOC: Assuming there are no objections.]
For Guilliame:
Guilliame steps across to the cabin and finds a guilty looking Samel standing at the desk near the window of the cabin. Without saying a word, the young man returns to bed.
[OOC: Please make an Insight check for Guilliame.
Also, note that, if there are objections, then the above didn't happen.]
[OOC: Although Samel was near the desk, Guilliame is sure that it was the shuttered window that he was interested in, most likely for the purposes of escape. However, this window is different than most Guilliame has seen, since it can apparently be barred on both the inside, and the outside—something which Alice has just done.
Following on from your previous request to do a See the Arcane on Samel, you have already seen that he has a faint aurahere(he was the youth by the stage that Guilliame saw Hazluk talking to later), but if you still want to make another check, please roll another Perception check.]

To Samuel "Just remember, Samuel, we are here to protect you. Anything you can tell us will help us do that. You are probably in more danger if you leave."
[OOC: The aura was only faint last time and Guilliame can't even see it now. I am going to class this as a failure for sakes of Guilliame's experience.

For Guilliame:
"I, I... I heard a sound at the shutters and thought someone might be trying to break in," says Samel in response, looking scared.
[OOC: Despite what he says being true—Alice has just put the shutters up on the outside of the window—Guilliame's original Insight seems more likely to be the correct reason why Samel was over near the window.]
Wait for Alice to return from barring window. Wait for Jack and Luka to depart. When and if these events happen walk out to speak to Barrus carrying crossbow.
"I've sent Jack and Luka for aid. We will hold the fort until they get back. How are you Barrus - you seemed out of sorts back at the interrogation?"
As Alice returns back from shuttering the window, Jack and Luka depart heading south along the road that heads towards the city proper. The last thing Jack says is: "Hopefully we will be back in a couple of candles, boss lady."
[OOC: It is a fair hike to the Temple Ward from the northern guard post and who knows how long they will have to wait.]
Picking up a crossbow, Dora then steps down to the road and approaches Barrus, who is now leaning against the side of the cabin.
For Dora:
Before replying to Dora's question, the lanky Sorendenese handsman turns away and spits tabac juice onto the road. He then shrugs and says, "I was not with you earlier Handleader, so I do not know all the circumstances, but it does seem like you are giving that young scamp an awful lot of credence for some pretty wild accusations... I also know of the Hasluks, they are a respected family... I find it very hard to believe the things he is accusing them of.
"Excellent."
"If the temple is quarantined, then at the very least the Seeker or her apprentice will be able to provide advice, even if they can't attend."
Calling out "Alice Jack and Luka.."
