(OOC: Did Jorah take any of the items from the crates prior to the watch showing up? Just asking.)
As the group addresses the captain, most of the guards fan out and search the warehouse (52214151016121835 while a couple of them examine the various corpses. "Hey you! hands up and get with the others!" two of the guards shout as they spot Jorah near the open secret room. "Looks like we found the stolen shipment from the docks" One of them adds as they move into the room and examine the open crates. The captain looks over towards the commotion happening on the other side of the warehouse when Renaer steps forwards. "Captain Staget, what they say is true. please listen to them." Renaer says as he steps forward. When Renaer approaches the captain, the captain straightens up. "Renaer Neverember, well this is a surprise. If these men are with you than l suppose I should be thanking them." He says as he nods to the group. "Captain... My friend.. a man that goes by the name of Floon was kidnapped as well. based upon the information provided by my rescuers it sounds as though the Xanthar guild has escaped with him down into the sewers. Will you send your men after them?" Renaer asks as concern floods his face. Captain Staget simply shakes his head. "I cannot spare the resources and I won't send good officers down into the sewers after someone that could be a Zhent spy for all we know. My job is to keep the blood off the streets.. What happens under them... well that is a different matter." The captain says as he motions for the members of the watch to allow the group to leave.
(no he did not xD. The paintings intrigued him, but he's to small to try and carry them out silently.)
Jorah gives a light pout and groups up with the others as he is asked to. It did good to listen to others as a dragon, fighting those like them were beneath him. He tugged on his hood and held his snout up proudly while standing by, listening to the others. Hearing that the guards weren't going to help, he narrowed his eyes and momentarily debated taking back his mercy and eating their necks out here and now. Instead, he gives a light tug on Renaer's pant leg and adds, "Volotramp Greedydamn, friendz of Floon waz looking for himz. Come with uz." He had the feeling that talking about this in front of guards was going to be annoying, and considering that Volo was their client, he should want to hear about what happened.
A member of the watch would take the captured kenku from the tabaxi. "Thank you, now please move along" He would say as he places a set metal restraints on the kenku's wrists. When the kobold addresses Renaer, he would look down and nod. "Yes, let's go." He would reply before heading outside. A couple of the watch members escort you out of the warehouse before standing guard by the door as they block off the area. As you all head down the street Renaer stops. "We cannot just leave Floon... I know he is Volo's friend and he is my friend as well. It is my fault he was kidnapped and I plan to make sure he gets home safe... You said they took him down into the sewers.. well there has to be a way down there close by. They couldn't have gone far." the nobleman would say as he looks to each of you.. hoping you will continue to help him find floon.
Alexa nods. "And I won't be able to draw on Ilmater's power to heal anymore until I do so either." She does her best to control her frustration, rubbing the choker around her neck. Not so long ago, a couple of spells would never have exhausted her this way.
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Marla thinks to see if she’s read at any inns nearby, less ‘seedy’ and more ‘basic and honest’ if the party needs somewhere to regroup... (Intelligence check? 13)
Marla thinks hard trying to think of a place that might be cleaner and less dangerous than the majority of the dock ward. After a minute or two of thinking, she remembers the Blue Mermaid on Net street which isn't too far away. It is very clean (at least for the dock ward) and is run by a kind motherly woman.
‘Follow me, I know somewhere we can regroup and plan our next steps, in a little more comfort...’ Assuming everyone is willing, she leads the way to the Blue Mermaid, followed by Shade who will keep watch to make sure they’re not followed. (If they are, she’ll find somewhere good to ambush the followers...)
Jorah, having his abilities as a Dragon tested by the large cat man, frowns and puffs his chest, "Jorah knows ALL the sewers. Bad places and goods ones to! Jorah'z tribe sleep nearby!" He says this, but more often than not, he simply uses the surface entrances as way points to hide from guards or short cut to parts of town when it was to bright or hot for his hood and cloak to deal with.
(i think we want to go back to the Yawning Portal? We can rest there while talking with Volo about what we need to do next)
Flowers will flip a gold coin to Jorah for the information
"it is fortunate we have the Great Jorah with us then for when we need to enter the sewers to find Floon.." and he will follow everyone to the nearby inn.
The group makes there way to Net street. The trip takes only about ten minutes as the fog continues to block out the sun. It is close to supper time, and when you make your way to the Blue Mermaid it is somewhat busy. Out front there is a tall muscular man. He wears common clothes but his appearance is well kept and clean. Inside the few tables available are almost all being used by at least one person or another. The floors are clean and the decorations are simple. There is a large painting of a mermaid behind the bar and when you walk in and short gentle looking woman wipes her hands on her apron and waves you over. "Hello, I'm Jalyth. Whan can I get for you all this afternoon? I can fix you up a nice hardy mean if you like. If you want rooms, we only have four available so you might need to share." She says as she counts the number of heads. Renaer follows in behind you and moves to the bar before whispering something to the woman. "It seems your friend here has agreed to cover your expenses tonight, so please... let me know what I can get for you." She adds with a wide smile. Renaer then looks to the group and adjusts his shirt. "If you would like, I can meet you tomorrow and come with you to search for Floon. You just give me a time and a place. Otherwise i can head back to the Yawning Portal and update Volo on the events of tonight." He says before sniffing his own shirt and scrunching up his nose.

Flowers looks at the Kenku he's holding in the air and they both sort of shrug at each other. Then he hands the Kenku to one of the Watch.
"He and his friends jumped us when we came in to investigate."

Without trying to be racist, Flowers looks at Jorah when Renaer asks the question about sewer entrances.
"Certainly a mighty Dragon as yourself must know of ways to travel the city without drawing attention..."

Marla nods. ‘A brief rest somewhere more salubrious would be in order.’
"Yes. We rest." Misha said. "Then, we go. We are pressed for time and must move queeckly. Floon could be een danger as we speak."
OOC: So are you heading back to the Skewered dragon to rest at the pub? Sitting on the curb? Where are you resting?

(OOC: Let me know where you are all headed and if you are sticking together or splitting up.)
Misha follows everyone, cuz splitting up is silly, to the Blue Mermaid, and makes sure we all get there.
Alexa will follow to the Mermaid, still looking troubled by the revelations of the day.
(I think we know what to do next, just need to rest so those of us reliant on spell slots can be properly useful again)
