Renaer looks at Aimee, taking in everything the group are saying about her “Well, if you are in need of anywhere to stay, you can use Neverember House, as long as you don’t mind being watched by my fathers spies.” He hands the keys over to Kerri as he half jokingly warns Aimee “No looting my house though!”
“So, off into the sewers we go then, thank you again for all of your help! Bringing the bird might just be the sanest thing you’ve said today Aimee, good think - oh drat!” Renaer trails off as a hoard of figures come through the door all dressed in the familiar uniform of the city watch. A few of them encircle you, Longswards drawn, while the others fan out to search the warehouse.
A rigid man with a perfectly straight moustache and a city watch Captains uniform with not a hair out of place steps in and eyes the group “Please remain calm, nobody shall be leaving this scene, and a ruckus will only delay the justice system unnecessarily, if you would be so kind as to fill out these here forms with your name, address and occupation we can get things moving along swiftly. You have the right to remain silent, however obstruction to the work of the city watch will be noted and may be used against you, are we all clear?”
"Ya, a mistake! We're here on a quest to find Floon! Haven't done that yet but we did save this guy from a flock of bird people! They got me and I died but got better thanks to Sparky!" She then points at Raener, "This is the guys we saved, he looks pretty bad but his name is Renaer Neveremeber and he just gave us the keys to his house as long as we don't steal everything and mind people watching us!"
She then points to Dnee,
"And he is part of the city watch so this is a city watch quest too!"
She smiles proudly around at everyone having just set everything straight.
Renaer backs up Aimee, “Captain Staget, it’s a pleasure to finally meet you, I’ve heard much about the great work you’ve been doing for the city - yes, these brave heroes here saved me, please let them go.”
The Captain nods to Renaer, “Men, at ease.” The city watch lower their weapons. Staget walks over to a Dnee and firmly looks him in the eyes. “So, you are city watch? What has possessed you to bring a group of civilians into a targeted property in my jurisdiction?”
Lyss has set the bow and arrow aside as soon as the authorities were making an appearance, and is playing up the 'hurt little girl' card, tears forming in her eyes as she gives Kerri a big 'thank you' hug upon getting healed and takes the woman's hand if she doesn't pull away, looking at the watch with big eyes.

Dnee is startled by Captain Staget. "Oh," he says nervously. "Well, Volo sent us on a personal mission. We're trying to find his friend Floon, and somehow we ended up here. We have suspicions that it might be the work of... the Xanathar Guild."
Captain Staget rubs his sharp chin in response to Dnee, gesturing at one of the other city watch”Check over his papers, see if he is who he says.” He looks around the room, at the bodies, beckoning over one of his officers as he addresses the party. “Xanathar’s eh, well.. that would make sense, what with all the violence as of late. Still... Best not to meddle in criminal matters. Leave this dirty business to the City Watch.... those that are on active duty at that.”
After hearing a whispered report from his officer, Staget nods, “Well, your story checks out, but it seems like you’ve committed quite the few felonies here. I hoped one of our own might have informed you of the code legal before taking you on a private investigation.” The other members of the watch hand out copies of the code legal to the group in unison, like this is a well rehearsed act. (Find code legal in campaign notes) “However.... I might be able to overlook some of your misdemeanours, since you have saved a distinguished member of our society here. So, what do you know about this business then?”
Aimee looks happily bewildered as she reads the code then asks,
"Just the misdemeanors but not the felonies? The bird people fought with these other people and the bird people won and took Floon because they thought Floon was this guy!"
"What she's trying to say," Kerri explains. "We came here because we found evidence of Mr. Neverwinter and his friend Floon were being imprisoned here. When we arrived all of men were dead, and we were attacked by that one," she nodes at the Kenku, "and his associates. We were fighting in self defense Sir."
Staget raises his eyebrows at Aimees comment about her felonies ”She’s got quite the loose tongue there, I’d be careful if I were you. Not all City watch are as nice as me!“
Renaer nods in agreement with everything the group are saying
Staget continues pacing in front of you and rubbing his moustache ”So, you know nothing as to who the group were that are here? Or why they may have been fighting? And do you plan to continue your pursuit of this... Floon?”

Aimee heads over to Lyssli and asks,
"How you feeling? You did great there! All poof disappear and stab! Oh, you are bleeding a lot though! Hey, city guard people can you help Lyssli?"
She looks for someone with medical (magic) training to help Lyss get better like Spark did for her.
"Oh," Kerri walks over to Lyss and puts a hand on her shoulder, "sorry I should have noticed earlier."

Aimee gives Kerri a hug,
"Thanks!"

She jerks a thumb at Raener.
"Right?"

Aimee adds helpfully.

Lyss is getting fidgety. Too much authority all in one place. She starts doing the 'I need to pee' dance in hopes that they'll let her go.

"What, you're the one that said I had been doing felonies! I haven't done any of those or misdemeanors! Volo sent us on a quest, we have to save him!"
Before pausing for an answer she looks over to Lyss and her dancing,
"Lyss needs to pee, I will go with her! Don't forget your arrows and bow Lyss!"
"S'not mine!"
