As Lysslin quietly pops open the window, she hears a screeching sound, like something scraping across glass, shortly followed by a ruckus seeming to come from within the building. After a few moments the ruckus dies down but the scraping continues.
Spark
As you scrape further, you notice a couple more similarly dressed bodies, with rapiers and daggers strewn across the floor by their side. Upturned chairs, tables and storage crates litter the warehouse. To the right as you look through the window are some stairs heading up and there seems to be a balcony overlooking the floor.
The offices seem deserted. You climb in to the room and walk through piles of paperwork as something crawls past your feet. The doors between the offices are flung open, there are two smaller rooms to your right and the large one you climbed into, the office to your left seems to have been some form of reception, with a desk facing the door. Opposite the front door is a smaller wooden door, left ajar. Through the gap in the doorway you can see it leads out onto a balcony overlooking some sort of warehouse.

You spot a short Avian creature hiding behind a crate opposite the door. As you peak you hear the familiar, cackling sound of Aimees Eldritch Blast
For Lyss
Aimee blasts away at the door, which refuses to swing open. Cackling energy scorches and blasts holes in the door until it is just a couple of blocks of blackened wood on hinges.
Inside the room, Aimee can see the main section of the warehouse, with a balcony overlooking it - there are more dead bodies lying around, and more chairs, tables and crates strewn across the room.
Through the doorway, Aimee can see Lyss hushing and pointing. On the balcony next to Lyss is some sort of dolly system, a rope with a hook on the end dangles into the warehouse.
Kerri winces at the sound, "Was the noise necessary?" She asks.

Lyss will look in first, before darting in and listening at the office door, then checking if it's locked.

Lyss will peek into the warehouse, looking to see if anyone is about, and looking up to see if there is a catwalk or rafters.

The rafters are about 60ft above the warehouse floor, the whole floor isn’t clearly visible from the doorway but you can make a perception check

What’s everyone in the yard doing while Lyss explores the street entrance?

Aimee walks into the yard to the door and, deciding that if anyone is here they definitely heard Sparky, tries to open it.
If it resists she will eldritch blast it open saying,
"You, Sparky, were not very sneaky! But that means I get to do this, so thanks!"
Spark cackles under his breath, but for once says nothing.
He's hanging back to see what happens with the window.

Aimee is pleased with her door opening prowess and says,
"Either these people sleep REALLY deep or they are REALLY dead! Guessing the blood means the latter?"
She pushes on the door again to see if it opens and asks,
"Anyone know what Floon looks like? Maybe he is in there! Do we still get paid if Floon is dead Lyssli?"
She looks around for Lyssli then realizes something and nods knowingly at Sparky and waves over Dnee and Kerri before attempting to go in.
As Aimee goes to push open the door, she realises it is no longer there, and has been blasted out of existence.
Looking around, Aimee notices that Lyssli is not with you in the yard

Lyss will slip out the door, holding a finger up to her lips for Aimee, then pointing to a stack of boxes on the lower level, opposite the door.

Aimee steps in and looks around, spotting her shooshing and pointing. After looking and seeing nothing she brain talks to Lyssli,
<Huh? What you see over there? Floon?!>
Lyss shakes her head, and linking her thumbs together, flaps her hands like a bird.

<A moth? A bat? A bugbat!? A bird? Is it a really pretty bird?>
She looks around at the dead bodies too, she sniffs to see if they are stinking the place up yet.
Kerri goes to join Aimee, she whispers "So... what's going on?"
