You show the guards your credentials showing who you are and were requested to here to meet with the Quorum and the guards looks a bit confused at each other.
A few moments later Marshal Skarment walks out from within, arguing loudly with an elderly and hawkish court official. He points to your group and shouts.
"You doddering idiots, they are the honoured agents of teh Throne I have come here to meet!"
The usher gasps. "The Founder save us, who then have we let into the Court?"
At that moment you hear 2 loud explosions that could only be frag grenades going off inside the building and the blood curdling screams of people in pain or dying!
Initiative
Auraxis grimaces, "How much should we bet that some of these Nobles have brought the very same items that we are seeking and are now under siege for them".
Auraxis will draw his Bolter Pistol I will wait for everyone's initiative before announcing any further actions.
Illidan looks to nihil then closes his eyes tightly shut
"I wish a warp spawn creature Is all we have to deal wIth ."
and heads towards the explosions reading his auto gun

Nihil chuckled in amusement, casually unholstering his autopistol before following after the rest of the group.
"Our job is never going to be simple, is it?...."

Huntarr draws his shotgun and moves to the door, bringing it up to target acquisition, searching for targets. If he sees one, he will fire.
Inside the building there is utter chaos. Body parts scatter the floor and some smaller fires are starting to kick in. You see 3 men dressed in black sorta like you guys with guns out shooting at random people as you peer in.
You notice that these guys are not what they seem. As they are moving and shooting it seems they are masked by some kind of sorcery to make them look like normal people but look like that dead person in the alley way. Not the same person but almost like a zombie type.

sensing nothing strange Illidan comes into the room twisting the canister on the front of his auto gun and In a sweepIng motIon of 30 degrees lets rip a stream of hellfire from his autogun to purge the unclean of theIr post mortem sIns agaInst humanIty
"Everyone Move In!!! in I have your cover fire right here Haaahhhh
Huntarr fires at the nearest zombie.
The 3 men shooting catch fire and so do a few nobles in the process. All nice and crispy.

"Illidan, you idiot! Put that damn thing away! You're going to kill everyone!"
Nihil barked at the ignorant pyscher, Immediately moving away from the rest of the group with his servo skull following behind him to tend to the closest wounded.
Auraxis will turn to Nihil, "Does the person controlling these things need to be nearby?" Any tell-tale signs someone is controlling them based on their body language?"
Auraxis wants to look around. Search
Nothing else can be seen in the chaos especially now with all the smoke and fire that just hit the building and patrons.
The 3 enemies are still standing and don't seem to be affected by the fire much.

Single shot due to half action to put weapon away and draw hand cannon
Damage
The shot punches a nice hole into the dead flaming monster in front of you but does not put it down.
Nihil this is very advanced sorcery at work here. These creatures seem to be following orders but probably do not require their master to be nearby. You have never seen such advanced risen before.

Medicae Test +20 for Servo Skull.
Auraxis grunts at Nihil's response and yells at Ilidan, "Can you use your powers to detect or cut off the control of these things, would be more useful than random gunfire!"
Auraxis adds some more random fire power to the fray with his Bolt Pistol.Firing at one of the meat puppets.

The bolt round punches into one of the zombies and explodes killing the thing in gory blood splatered mess!
Just when things couldn't get much worse the flames on the bodies from Illidan's promethum cause a reaction to something strapped inside their jackets and all 3 explode in a firing blaze of glory! Luckily only 2 of them are close enough for the blast radius to affect the 4 of you. The 3rd kills a few nobles in the process.

The three explosions rock the building and your ears ring with deafness as you all try to regain your senses. People are screaming and crying and running around without purpose trying to leaving the now burning building.
Illidan's fire is finally put out as some others assist him.
Marshal Skarmen orders his men to pull everyone out in as orderly a fashion as possible and Enforcers can be seen gathering around the building with aids from the city to try to put out the fires.
Outside as the Nobles regain their senses you can see the face of anger on them and hear the whispers of the Undertow and how they are going to pay for this. One woman screams "The Judiciary! Where is he!"
Illidan struggles to keep up with the group and once they've stopped he collapse to the ground face first has his body is still smoldering covered with unsightly burns... smoke still rising.

illidan places a hand on his side as his plams glow green and infuses himself with warp energy

illidan groans as his flesh stops cooking and body heals itself internal ly
Huntarr sprints back into the building to search for the Judiciary.
Instead of following Huntarr into the building, Nihil stayed back to help where he could to tend to the wounded and dying.
Auraxis rushed back into the building as well. Intead of searching for the Judiciary though Auraxis seeks out the ruined bodies of the meat puppets controlled by our foe to search them and make sure that if they acquired any of the jewels our enemy is seeking we would obtain them.
Search
After looking around a bit you find what must be the Judiciary and his consorts. They are all dead with obvious Las shots to the head. Looking at the scene it does not appear his guards put up a fight at all.
