Janiven inspects the boy.
"The boy doesn't appear to have any injury's Ravishar, he just is exhausted."
She looks down at the boy.
"What happened Morosino? Who has Arael?!!"
Morosino catches his breath and begins to speak.
"The dottari have nabbed Arael and the Hellknights of the Rack are trying to get custody of him!" I barely escaped, but I fear they have caught onto my trail!"
The boy puts his head down in shame.
As you look out the window the coast is indeed not clear. Down the street you can see at least a dozen black armored solder's coming in your direction.
Hmmmm...Hellknights of Rath...
[b]Bringing the news to Fizzwiddle is the smartest thing you could have done little one.[/] he says while looking up to him.
Order of the Rack is the local chapter of Hellknights and are known for there zealous and extreme actions. Their greatest obsession is the prevention of rebellion.
"Well... Looks like we're in it now, whether we want to be or not..."
Erliana pulls out a scarf and falls in behind Ravishar.
Shooting an angry look at Janiven, "Seems I was wrong Janiven," Guy says coldly. "We need to leave, now. I'm not mixing it up with them today. Is there a back exit?" Guy looks around for anything he can throw in front of the door to slow down their would-be assailants.
Ravishar sees the number coming. "We have company guys, and I don't think we are any match for them. Guys right, we need to get out of here. You must have planned for something like this, a back door, some other way out of here?"

(Perception) All of the Hellknights are armed
(Knowledge)Order of the Rack is the local chapter of Hellknights and are known for there zealous and extreme actions.
Janiven hears the clanking of armor down the street, even before the Paladin confirms her fears.
"Dammit!!!"
She looks down at the boy with a look of anger
"I am sorry everybody, but this is not how I intended our meeting to turn out, but we must leave immediately."
Janiven looks over in Guy's direction, and points to the pile of debris.
"Under all that garbage, there is an access hatch to the sewers. Guy and Ravishar, help me remove the debris from atop the escape hatch and make a barricade in front of the door."
She moves over to the piles, and pulls out a large piece of a table and piles it next to the front door.
"Morosino, grab the torches from behind the bar. Erliana and Gnomes get ready to ru...."
BANG BANG BANG
The door rattles from the force.
(Outside in a deep, booming voice)
"You are surrounded, come out and give yourself up or you shall feel the wrath for the Order of the Rack!"
Ravishar hurrys to move debris off the pile and get it in front of the door. "Janiven, you lead everyone through the tunnel to wherever it goes. Fizz, you take care of the child, make sure he makes it through all right. Me and Guy will cover the back, and fight them off if its needed. Iomedae, I pray it is not."

Sounds like a plan...but first...
Fizzy peeks out the window looking for the one that looks like the least experienced
Just one second I have explosive Diarrhea, and we are still cleaning it up!
Lets move! That might by us a little bit of time!
Fizzy collects his new friend. [b] Stay with me and Kara, ok?
"Got it," he helped move the debris aside, haphazardly tossing it as needed. "Impatient pricks, eh?"
Fizzy nods vigorously as he makes his way towards the hatch, ushering the boy. Prepared to cast Ghost Sound.
As Fizzy helps the boy down into the trap door Fizzy mutters a cantrip to cause the sound of a slamming window to go along with the image that Kara is creating.
As Erliana sees what the gnomes are doing, she nods silently. Rickard ducks into the tunnel as she casts a spell of her own, a vaguely humanoid looking light following the silent image out the window.
She then follows her familiar into the hatch.
As the pile was cleared of debris and Janiven lifted up the hatch, you hear the sound of armor hitting the ground and of a man in a fit of uncontrollable laughter.
(Outside in a squeaky voice)
"Captain, they are escaping out the window, come quick"
The sound of armor rushes away from the front door as you make your way down the hatch.
The tunnel is rough-hewn and leads down 20ft to a simple wooden door.
(Outside in a deep, booming voice)
"You Fools!!"
You hear the sound of shattering glass
The other side of the door leads to a small nook which has been carved out of the sewers.
"We have a safe house in Rego Sacero ("Priest Sector"), we must get there quick. Luckily, Arael and I prepared for such a disaster."
She points at an drawing of an arrow in chalk on the door.
"We have marked all the intersections, so we could find our way back to the hideout. If anybody gets separated from the group or lost, look for these marks and follow the arrows"
Janiven knells down and pushes some bricks aside. She sighs in relief.
"Good they are still here"
She pull out a small backpack, opens it up and starts to pulls out some potions.
"Three..Eight..Sixteen" Perfect. We need to get moving, and we will not have time to rest. Everyone make sure to grab a couple of these."
Janiven turns around and grabs some long pipes leaning against the wall and starts to insert them into grooves cut into the door.
"You guys make a run for it while I buy us some time and board up this door. I will catch up! Hurry!!

As Erliana scrambles down the tunnel away from the approaching disaster, she gratefully takes the potions and listens intently to Janiven.
Fizzy slips the potions into his pack. They're in! He whispers to the others.
Fizzy turns back taking a look at what Janiven is doing, pondering if he can help, then promptly remembers he is supposed to be watching Mo
Ravishar puts the potions into his belt pouch and sees Janiven start to board up the door. Smart one there, I just had the same idea, though mine involved rope.
"Lets try and stay together the best we can. Whoever thinks they have the best eyesight should be at the front with Guy, I'll lead up the back of the group."
I feel like I should stay behind to help Janiven, but I know she can handle herself, and truthfully, I'll be more help to her if I don't get caught with here. Iomedae I pray she makes it alright. but silently he curses himself for feeling so weak.

The tunnels of the sewers are teen foot wide, with a 3-foot-deep deep trench of water and waste taking up half that width. The smell of raw sewage is nauseating.
Morosino points out the way as you make your way through many turns and twists through out the sewers.
Guy soon comes to a four way intersection and the arrow mark seems to be smudged. Fizzwiddle studies the mark and points south, finding another one down the way.
The party makes it to a bend when they encounter a swarm of colorful, animate blobs of slime with thin insectoid legs and antennae-like appendages crawling all along the walls , ground and in the sewage.
Fizzy ushers Mo and Kara behind him, in turn behind guy and Ravisher. Whip in hand.

He looks closely at the beasty
Ravishar readies himself. Just what we need, natives giving us trouble

You identify these as "Torbles" aka ooze bugs. These strange mouse size creatures part ooze/ part vermin, are known to live among the waste in the sewers of Westcrown. Their bites sting, and some people say they resemble the effects of acid
These are pretty common in Westcrown's Sewers.

Torbles! Rumor has it is that their bite is like acid. Don't let them swarm you!
Somehow I am less confident in my acid flasks now...
I have rolled your Initiative and placed you in the front of marching order to speed things up.
Let me know if u want to change the order.
Torbles:

Fizzwiddle will stow his whip and prepare to draw a sharpened dagger next round. Then he will 5 ft step forward if he gets the chance
Then he sings a little song
Squash them hard!
Squash them fast,
But be on your guard,
Or we won't last!
EDIT: changed moved action based off of the not being a swarm.
[Note: These are all tiny creatures and not considered a swarm]
Ugh, this small sewer is going to make it difficult to fight. should I jump in the water... No, there's probably worse things than torbles in there.
Good lord it reeks in here. Don't have a clear line on them, gonna have to risk it.
