Vados picks up the unconscious man, throwing him over one shoulder and beginning to move east. He is slowed by the burden he carries though. . Cindy moves along in the air nearby.
The spider scuttles northward and becomes sickened, and as the cloud of noxious fumes fades away it can be seen struggling to keep to its feet.
Farther down the street to the east a half dozen city guard can be seen running your direction, knocking down those not quick enough to get out of the way.
Firyin's thugs start backing away as well, not wanting to be left on their own to engage.
The air elemental misses its attack then vanishes in a puff of ash.
On Cindy's turn she plans to take advantage of being invisible to fly to where she can better see what the enemy is doing inside the inn.
"Put my pal down!" the half-orc shouts as he runs towards Vados, cutting behind the fountain.
More yelling from inside the inn reaches the ears of Vados and Cindy. "Im po eno na strehi, če mi ne moremo dobiti nazaj Vaek bomo potrebovali pogajalsko čipa."
The two elves continue slowly backing away from the leopard, each planting another arrow in the creature where it falls to the ground unconscious.

Cindy chooses to act. After she has spoken to the enemy monk she casts Invisibility on herself and moves to S35.
Cindy's move is 60', so instead she will cast Detect Magic as her standard while the cloud is still there and then 5' to where she can see better into the through that window. Inn.
As the thrill of battle wears off from Vayga she finds herself extremely tired. Through the fatigue she continues to the merchants guild hall carrying the corpse of the fallen elf.
Through the message spell Cindy warns Do not separate too much, they may come after us.
Your new position doesn't offer much better view into the what is happening in the inn, though you can see through the front doors that the man in the breastplate is recovering from the effects of the stinking cloud.
The summoner has not reappeared from around the window corner he ducked behind.
Map for Cindy - though positions for her and Garion aren't up to date in int
As everyone begins to fall back the gnome calls out loudly. "Our business is, by nature, secretive--And as such, information is valuable and is not often given freely. In our parley, however, I can assure you that all will be done fairly, including the exchange of information."
The man in the breastplate quits heaving and choking and staggers out of the inn . Looking about at the scene outside he lets out a single exclamantion. "D'ast."
Seeing the guards rushing in from the east, Firyin's lackeys look a little nervous. "What now?" one of them calls out.
Focusing your magically enhanced vision towards the inn you can sense magical auras in the direction of the open window where the leopard lept through and was killed by the elves.
Aria retrieves the said documents and begins moving toward the guards, floating harmlessly to the ground with her feather fall ability.
Vados re-positions his prisoner and moves back towards Garion.
As he moves past the guards, Vados shouts, "Keep that half-orc back!"
Firyin's men keep pace with Vados, one of them calling out, "I'm not going to stand here and try and take on that half-orc, that's not what I signed on for for this job."
The city watch rushes forward, drawing short swords as they do and shouting.
"Throw down your weapons and surrender." Their faces are apprehensive though seeing so many armed individuals in the area.
The two elves that killed the leopard rush out the front door of the inn, bows in hand, surveying the area.
Cindy continues to concentrate on the magic she noted last round as her standard and then uses her move to fly up to and slightly past Vados.
From the direction of the south window of the inn the gutteral language can be heard again, just faintly. "Odidi dokler še lahko, da je čarovnica še vedno lahko udaril z spanju. Bomo morali, da bi dobili nazaj Vaek kdaj drugič." Followed by the very faint sounds of spell casting.
The half-orc shouts back at those at the inn, "Če ti tako praviš Krast. Kril bom umik, nato pa sem kar sem pobegniti, a nisem pogajanja s temi barabami za nič drugega kot njihovo dušo na temnem oltarju." He then begins an incantation and soon a thick bank of fog rolls outward from him blocking a view of the front of the inn. The half-orc soon appears standing at the very edge of the mist. He shouts back to those behind him. "Izgini od tod in nazaj ceha in poskrbite, da te nihče ne sledi! Bodite jim nove rekrute, če lahko."
He cast obscuring mist.
Aria double moves towards the guards, holding up her license to kill so they can see she is unarmed (at least no weapon in her hand).
Double move to S56.
City guards...my friend presents our papers. This group of thugs, which are enemies of this city and it's rightful leadership, have refused to surrender to the law. Even now, they cast magic to allude you. They should be tried for their crimes and their threats against the good people of this city. Please guard our retreat so our prisoners may be questioned!
Prior to moving you note 15 separate magical auras. The strongest of moderate power. As you move away all fifteen aura's fade from your perception, no longer within the range of your heightened senses.
Vados continues to move behind the line of guards.
Vayga moves south and west, looking for a place to stash the body in a hurry if she needs to aid her companions.
The guards show some surprise and confusion at Shiv's words, but Garion pulls his copy of the document out and hands it to them, the seal of the tower at the bottom of the paper being plainly visible.
The closest guard takes it and begins rapidly reading over the short document. As Vados moves to push past the guards one of them steps in front of him to block his path till the first calls out. "Let them pass. They've the seal of the tower on this document."
Turning back to Garion the guardsman asks, his voice urgent, "How many more of them are there?" He looks beyond Garion whee the half-orc is standing half hidden in the fog and where the gnome is waiting.
Garion replies, "Five or six."
The guardsman's faces are grim, but determined. They spread out slightly waiting to see what the half-orc is going to do.
You could dump the body in one of the horse stalls, but it wouldn't be particularly hidden from anyone who actually looked in the stall.
Cindy flies to the unconscious man Vados is carrying as a move action and attempts to remove any headgear the man might be wearing as a standard. She believes that, like her, he might be wearing a hat of disguise. Regardless, she makes sure she gets a lock or two of his hair in the process.
From the direction of the half-orc the faint words of another spell being cast reach those standing near the guards and Vados. The words are to faint though to make out what the spell may have been.
The gnome turns and runs northward, disappearing around the west side of the stables.
Vayga whispers urgently to Aria, What's going on? Do I need to come back?
Aria whispers back, "No, stay safe. The guards are here, and we still have a few of the crossbowmen from the merchants' guild. As to what's going on, I'm not sure. I expected the enemy would run away at their next possibility."
From behind the fog cloud the man in the breastplate can be seen sprinting northward. The two elves from the inn are close behind him.
The guard with the documents continues reading the finer details of them. "Search the area, but be careful he calls out."
Three of the guards advance wearily towards the cloud of mist, blades drawn, casting about and listening intently.
Cindy pulls a simple cap from the head of the mage representative slung over Vados shoulder, his form changes immediately to reveal a clean shaven man with medium length burgundy hair. The man is in his late 20's or early 30's. A silver headband with two small rubies holds his hair back from his eyes.
Both his height and girth increase slightly from that which he previously had. The man is around 5'8" and you'd guess between 180-200 pounds in weight.
His clothes are of fine quality, dark gray with a purple lining. Leather lamellar armor protects his torso. His shoulders are adorned by a gray cloak, also with a purple lining.
A bone necklace encircles his neck and a silver ring adorns one finger.
His boots show a bit of mud on them, but are otherwise in good condition.
Two pouches hang at is waist.
Cindy will move along with Vados, continuing to loot the prisoner, but also trying to stay very alert to her surroundings.
Vados sticks close to Cindy as the group continues to pull back from the melee.
Forty eight hours! Check with the bartender!
Shiv yells out to the half orc and then goes to defend his friends.
As Vados starts moving east again the sound of chanting from very close by echoes along the street, the voice of the man with the limp. The location of the sound is easy to pinpoint . A moment later the unconscious man comes awake.
You recognize the spell as a cure light wounds.
As the spell ends you hear the faint sound of feet on the cobblestone moving quickly in behind Vados. There is someone invisible to his southwest
From the west and north, several more guards can be seen running towards the inn courtyard.
