Kevan yells to the others, "The fire, it'll destroy everything! We have to put it out now!" He begins chanting a spell.

Korizon asks, "Why are we spending time on the fire? Isn't that what some one else should be doing? Are we not looking for thieves? He goes and picks up barrel again now that the Gnome is out of it.

Kevan grows to ogre-size and rushes over towards the fire. He throws his huge cloak over the flames and tries to smother the fire. He doesn't even feel the heat thanks to Gwen's spell. Put the fire out and we can search this whole place!"
Is it a roll to try to smother the flames?

I am assuming we see the figures on the map since we just got shot at because attacks usually would break stealth?
Is this person on top of something or on the ground? Either way, the reaction from Gadget is the same.
Move Action
Gadget moves forward, drawing her bow.
Standard Action
She fires upon the figure that figure that fired the arrow.
Longbow Attack (Point Blank Shot): 1d20 + 5 + 1 ⇒ (12) + 5 + 1 = 18
Longbow Damage (Point Blank Shot): 1d6 + 1 ⇒ (2) + 1 = 3
Actions: ◇ ◆ ◆◆ ◆◆◆ ↺
Since I forgot to reroll the stealth after the attack, I think that's ok. The archer is inside the orange tent, on the ground, just sticking a nose and the bow outside. The tent is open and there are not too many people around, so no cover.
Gadget immediately releases an arrow form her longbow and hits.

"Coward!! Come out and fight!!! RAHHHH!!' Calvin's mind goes blank as all his focus is trained on the attacker. Drawing his large blade he charges the archer.

Shortly after you defeat Parani Akar, a large contingent of Graycloaks arrive, including Runewulf the Unbeliever himself. "What happened here?" he asks. "Why did you attack one of my guards?"

Calvin step forward and hands him the documents they found in the warehouse. "Here."
Actions: ◇ ◆ ◆◆ ◆◆◆ ↺
Runewulf goes through the information in the documents. "That's interesting, you revealed a list of names wich are involved in the smuggling activities and possible buyers of stolen relics."
He approaches the unconscious archer. "The arrows she uses look like the arrow we found in Barleyhusk's shop. If Barleyhusk can confirm that Parani shot the arrow I think this case is solved."
Male Human Cleric 2 (HP: 17/17 | AC: 18/12/16 | F+5 R+3 W+5 | Init +6 | Percep +2 SM +6)
"If she is who we think she is, Ms. Barleyhusk should be able to identify her as the Greycloak who she left with the victim. We believe she killed him when the arrow didn't do the job first."
Actions: ◇ ◆ ◆◆ ◆◆◆ ↺
Conclusion
Baerleyhusk later confirms, that the woman is the Greycloak who she left with the wounded man. The Graycloaks are skeptical at first, but the evidence is overwhelming. Parani is eventually tried and convicted for her crimes. Word of the evenhanded way the Pathfinders handled the situation spreads throughout Absalom’s guards and much of the tension between the Society and the local guard in Absalom eases for a while.
The end...

After the convincing Runewulf the Unbeliever Calvin turns to Kevan. "Let's get a drink! I'll arm wrestle you for who buys!" Calvin slaps the man on the back as he walks to the nearest tavern.
Thanks for the Game GM Baerlie. Good game everyone see you around the boards.
