Cragmyre, seeing the onslaught of people, calls upon his ancestors in a meditative rage, his blood pumping and mind focused. He picks the box back up, raises it over his head, and stands stalwart in the path of the stampede.
Sorry guys, the Man Flu knocked me for a six. The flying monkeys are no longer in my peripheral vision so let's try this..
Nunberry: In regards to the stealth, I thought that once Arden tapped the woman on the shoulder and started talking to her that the stealth was broken. But in hindsight that may be wrong as the woman you were next to is unlikely to look for you but instead look over at her companion. Would you like to retcon it so you get a sneak attack in?
Cragmyre, Deet and Tahta:
A giant bonfire appears in front of you all, parting the panicked crowd like a knife through fabric. A couple of people kick the edges sending sparks up through the alleyway, but nobody seems to actually fall into it. Your nimbleness Deet, although up for the task, doesn't seem to be needed at this time.
Once the crowd turns some and Cragmyre stnads tall, Tahta would like to lower the flame slowly so that our giant emerges behind it menacingly and can see what is happening.
Seeing her imminent doom projected into her mind the woman near Klee spins around just in time to fulfil the premonition exactly. The shimmering blades of psychic energy plunges deep into her abdomen as she stares into Klee's eyes. Her own eyes turn a silvery grey as her life slips away.
Arden's foe manages to deflect his attacks in the jostling crowd but then she starts screaming for help, putting up her hands and dropping her knife.
At this time everyone in the party can hear a Copper Whistle being blown hard. For those of you who have been in the city a while you know that this is a call from a soldier of the City Watch calling for help.
Fishpan Alley is nearly clear of people with only the lame and elderly left.
Watching the light go out in her eyes, Sihegiall projects Tell me where she is! Tell me or I'll rip the soul from your chest and wear it like a ******* scarf! You will know no rest while my neck feels winters chill!
Dismissing her knives she waves frantically for attention, screaming
Uncertain of what the whistle means, Deet stands around looking confused, unable to follow what's happening. Seeing Klee in some distress, he runs over to her. What... Is she okay?he asks, pointing at the woman. Should I help her?
Arden sheathes his daggers and collapses to the ground, clutching at the woman as he screams Help! She’s nearly done me in, she has! Bleedin like a stuck pig, I am! God’s ‘ave mercy!
As you all start to gather in the deserting marketplace you can see about four City Watch Flatfoots running up the alley towards you. They are about 200 ft away. Hidden in a doorway about 30 feet away is a small looking Watchwoman blowing frantically on a Copper Whistle.
Arden wails that he's been "Done in" next to a confused looking woman on her knees, blood all down her front from an obviously broken nose. Her hands are in the air.
Klee stands over a woman who has buckled over backwards into a position no conscious human being could maintain. He yells that her heart has given out.
One other woman lies unconscious near a diminishing bonfire in the alley around the corner.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Steven holds his hand against the wound in his side artfully and surreptitiously smearing the blood all over himself. Oi didn’t know she was a lady, oi felt the knife go in my ribs and I turned around swinging! You’re a doctor, mate? Please come stitch me up before any more of me spills out! deception14
See the trouble with the party, Tahta scream again.
Witches! The old hags is witches! Search 'em! They came out that warehouse there! Like three shady hags! Up to evil, I bet!(All technically true from Tahtas perspective)
I don't think Deet ever saw the three women fleeing the warehouse, so he doesn't really understand what's going on. But he's determined to help, somehow. So he will run up to Arden and with absolutely no subtlety at all say How's it going? Is there anything I can do to help? Who are these women? I think someone's called the Watch, do you think they'll help too?
Does halfling nimbleness work on evading this?

What do you do?
Cragmyre runs forward to look for the origin of the stampede. He looks menacing as **** as he jumps over the waning bonfire.

Tahta scurries off to the side of the road and buries her head in her arms, shaking violently, and screaming about witches.

How badly hurt is Arden? Deet gives him an alarmed look: Perception 5
Arden winks at Deet if he sees his alarmed look.

Deet's mouth makes a wide -O- and he backs away, looking around nervously.
Striding forward, Cragmyre looks back and forth between Klee, Arden, and the woman. Does he recognize her? "Nobody move. I'm a doctor."

She'll run up to see if she can help Klee.
I don't think Deet ever saw the three women fleeing the warehouse, so he doesn't really understand what's going on. But he's determined to help, somehow. So he will run up to Arden and with absolutely no subtlety at all say How's it going? Is there anything I can do to help? Who are these women? I think someone's called the Watch, do you think they'll help too?
The Watch arrives and immediately asks everyone to stand back from everyone else and keep their hands away from weapons.
