As Anna began to cast a spell , Zora follows Merisiel and slash Koriana with her sword hurting her deeply. The old elf falls uncounscious and bleeding on the floor.
Barnabas took a potion on one of the shell and tries to reach Koriana, moving through Anna
But he's unable to pass through her.
Lōd attack Barnabas who dodges the hit. I'm not armed ! I'm not armed ! he shoots
Inside the other room you heard a voice saying.
Brother, get Lady Koriana, I take care of the attackers !
Then the last man moves to face Merisiel, protecting Koriana's body.
The sword find its way in Merisiel's body, but not enough to drop her uncounscious.
Barnabas nods at Lōd's request.
Merisiel easyly find an opening in Jyrnas' denfese and wounds him. But as Merisiel took a 5ft. step, Jyrnas follows her !
Mandas takes a potion of cure light wounds on Koriana and begins to put it on her mouth.
Thalia continues to defend herself as much as she can.
Zora's pass one of the brother to be able to menace the one giving the potion and she stabs him twice.
Anna casts grease on the potion Mandas tries to provide to Koriana while continuing blessing his comrade with her declamation about liberty and freedom.
Mandas drop the potion under the spell effect ! Letting his magic goes away...
He turns to the Pathfinders and says Alright, you win ! We don't want anymore trouble, we are not enough payed to do that !
Seeing the victory at hand Thalia says We need her alive ! She's a key witness !
Both brother let down their weapons

Lod drops to the ground next to Korianna and tells the others, "Bind her hands and legs." Once they have started tying her up, he places his hands on her wounds and heals her just enough to keep her from dying.
"Now we should head back into town. Thaliana, how do you want to do this? Confront your father directly? Make a proclamation in the town square? We'll support you however you want."
Koriana doesn't wake up after Lod's lay of hands.
Thalia responds to Lod I think we need to find proof of what my father do. The Andoren judicial system is perfectly equipped to handle just such villains, we only need to go to Captain Merton Demrick with Koriana as a witness and all the proof we could find.
One of the two brother says after Thalia If you let us go, we may know something which could help you in this.
Koriana has a small lockbox hidden beneath the oorboards under her writing desk.
We think she has something important in it.
We have seen her put a letter from the Mayor in it.
One of the brother says.
The other adds Thanks for your kindness Pathfinder, we will go far away from this place and keep a low profile, promise !

Lod goes straight to the floorboard and starts yanking it up to look for the lockbox. Once he has it in hand, he keeps the agreement with the other men and starts leading Koriana out. "Well done, sirs. You're doing the right thing. We'll be taking Koriana and Thalia here straight to Captain Demrick now. Don't worry, Thalia. Everything will be sorted out soon."
Once the party finds Captain Demrick, Lod explains the whole situation and how the Mayor was involved, letting Thalia fill in the details. He hands over Koriana and the evidence and trusts Demrick to evaluate it himself and do the right thing. "I'm glad we were able to sort it all out, even if it wasn't the ideal ending. Thalia is safe though, and I think that's what really matters after all."
The halfing looks at the evidence you found and at Thalia's story with some sort of incredulity.
But, at the end he says
You have done the right things Pathfinders. I don't know how I could miss the clue you provide me, all these years... But don't worry. Here in andoran true justice is due and I will gather my men to arrest the may... Tercio Andares.
Thanks again for saving Thalia of a terrible fate et bring me all the evidences.
Thanks to the evidences you found and the arrest of Koriana alive, the courts eventually convict Tercio Andares of betraying his oath of office and Common Rule, stripping him of property and position. Further investigations may eventually lead to the conviction of Sander Bryton, but he survives the Andares case practically unscathed. Thalia’s unswerving adherence to Common Rule and her role in rooting out corruption cause the judge to favor her request to maintain much of the family’s property with some concessions, and she donates much of the Andares fortune to the Pathfinder Society.
