Hammond walks out and doesn't notice Flynn slipping out of the back exit. Flynn then spots the weaselly looking man walking towards the jailhouse. He doesn't seem to notice Flynn creeping out of the saloon in the shadows the large building is casting. The man however continues to slink towards the jailhouse.
Hammond is alone in the front while Flynn has slipped out the back leaving Taliann and V in the saloon with Silas.
"It's a nice town barring a few bigots," the young farmer says with a sigh looking at the bartender before looking to where Hammond has stalked off. "I hope you prevail," he adds next putting his hat on his head and walking out the front doors passed Hammond. "My great grand mother is an elf. She still lives in the forests of the North country. People's minds are small even after all these years humans are still considered a young race by many. Unity isn't impossible but it still needs daily work. Take heart friend. I thought you a good man the moment I met you," he smiles softly. "Take care," he adds patting Hammond's shoulder before moving away down the street to a collection of tents just off the northwest side of town where campfires burn.

As the others stand up to leave V opens her mouth to ask a question just as the bartender walks over. "Yes, yes," she says brushing off his comment, "we will leave after we finish our drinks." V turns back to ask Talia a question but the red haired woman is already gone, she thinks about asking Silas but a moment later he too leaves before she can get the question out. V just sighs, downs another shot, leans back in her chair and stares at the ceiling. Talia had recognized her, she could tell that, but from where was the question. V thought back hard on the face and name trying to remember where they could have met before. Had she been a customer or just a stranger in the street? V thinks her eyes glued to the wood framing above.

Hammond nods as he crosses his arms, waiting for the rest of the group to join him. As he waits he moves to string his bow slowly since not many people were around to say something. As he does so he will look for any signs of strange people.
OOC: it had literally been 24 hrs between my posts. If you'd like to address NPCs check the game thread more frequently.
V recognizes 'Talia' is actually a wealthy girl from her hometown named Ruth Astor. Rumours whirl around Ruth's departure. The young woman had been spirited away after a broken engagement. V knows Ruth's father was a bit of a tyrant but a good customer of her father's. The railroad man loved her father's gadgets having commissioned several to ease menial tasks as well as many weapons for person defense.
Flynn doesn't catch up with the man remaining silent in his movements to not alert the man but he does make it to the jailhouse in time to hear through an open window, still unseen, just outside the jailhouse.
Flynn roll a perception check.
Hammond is too absorbed in restringing his bow to notice anyone odd. Pulling the strings taught however it snaps lashing his finger for one point of damage!
"Ah!" V exclaims at the recognition, her hands hit the table causing the remaining shots to shake, "Ruth!" V turns to the door a smile on her face, "I always wondered what happened to her, to think she ending up way out here." V taps Taliann on the shoulder, "I knew one of them, a girl from back home, disappeared awhile back, good to see she is doing well, her father was a prick, a good customer but still a prick." V chuckles a little and takes another shot off the table, "Small world we live in, I should send my father a letter to let him know."
(OCC: Yeah two in a row. This seems to be a pattern every time I play a ranger....)
Hammond signs and moves to replace the string before shouldering his bow. He could already hear the taunts from the gun loving members of his party if they saw that happen.
Flynn hears the drunk basically babbling about the party. Who's hired them and how he'd like his gold now. Flynn then hears the man let out a yelp before he's tossed out of the jailhouse then kicked in the street by a giant of a man shouldering a rifle as two others exit the jailhouse behind him. A woman in what looks like mourning clothes who where's a black veil over her face and another man who's twitchy and looks like he's seen better days! They stop at the porch hanging off the jailhouse peering out into the street.
"Doesn't look like the calvary comes just yet," the giant of a man says spitting at the man he kicked before Flynn from his hiding place see the man then toss a couple of gold into the dirty around the drunk.
The drunk scrabbles to collect his fee before stumbling back towards the bar obviously injured from the giant man's savage kick!
V sneezes lightly then wrinkles her nose as if to scratch an itch. Looking around V finally takes note of Flynn and Hammond's absence and turns to Taliann, "Where do you think the others went? Oh well more for us then my friend." V then splits the remaining shots between herself and Taliann.
Flynn walks back to the tavern. He walks over to the group and tells them what he saw. He addresses V "Do you think you could make a sleep tonic? they probably have some lavender, or Valerian root, hell even magnesium would work. I think have an idea."

Flynn make stealth check to see if you go unseen by the group in the jailhouse porch returning to the Starlight.
Hammond sees the group on the jailhouse porch. He also witness the abuse of the drunk he noticed at the bar.
OOC: V and Tallinn would have noticed Hammond and Flynn's absence but if they want to play the game from a chair it the saloon they're not going to have a lot of fun....I know I'm not.
V smiles at Flynn, "I see where you are going with this. I am not an expert when it comes to alchemy but I got the tools I might be able to whip something up. I will need a room and about an hour to set everything up." V downs one last shot and taps Taliann on the shoulder, "Looks like drinking time is over time to get back to work." V stands up, fights off a moment of vertigo, then turns back to Flynn, "Let's go find us some rooms, and gather supplies. How do we want to do this, mix something into their drinks or make a sort of smoke? The smoke would be easier to deploy but more likely to fail, while the opposite would be true for mixing with their drink, more difficult to use but more likely to succeed." Ideas begin cycling through V's head on how to make Flynn's idea work, it would be difficult she knew but with a bit of help she just might be able to get it to work.
Trying to sneak away from the building Flynn is spotted by the giant man and a pistol shot shatters the silence. Flynn falls down to the ground dead as the giant man lets out an evil laugh and his companions applaud his crack-shot. Hammond at first doesn't see who's been shot he merely hears it. V hears it from the saloon as Tallinn hears it and runs outside. Seeing Flynn dead on the ground the barbarian attempts to attack but it shot down dead as well! Leaving Hammond looking on in horror and V, still in the saloon, the only standing members of the posse hired to free Reliance.
OOC: Feel free to react/take action but I'm going to include new PCs ASAP. Please bear with me.
OOC: thanks for the fun times guys! Me and the DM had a philosophical disagreement about ghosting, but it was fun playin with yall! Hope this campaign turns out well!

Hammond will quickly move into cover as fast as, cursing in elvish as he goes to draw his bow. He grits his teeth and turns into serious mode. "We can't let them get any of the stuff they had. We need to take them out."
"The Hells is going on!?" V shouts bolting up right out of her seat, she then throws her pack on to the table and pulls out the box containing her tools as well as her disassembled Eldritch Cannon. With practiced ease and the sobering sounds of the gunshots still echoing in her ears, V constructs her pistol shaped tiny Eldritch Cannon, putting it in its Force Ballista setting. Keeping the Eldritch Cannon in her left hand and drawing her pistol with her right V makes her way to the door of the saloon then braces herself against the door frame and peeks out seeing Flynn and Taliann motionless on the ground.
Hearing Hammond V calls back, "I am right here with you ready to go when you are."
