Half the people who should be here aren't, and half the people who shouldn't be here nonetheless are. Overall there's something more than 30 people in attendance -
If everyone's too attached to their kids we should totally go back to the lizard-person plans, that gives us plenty of weird babies to sacrifice soon! Nobody will want a lizard baby
Arbiter Zenderholm, can we set it up so Yog-Sothoth helps us now and we owe It the babies later?
Druids can do Speak with Animal and shadows are kind of animalistic, right, is anyone around here a druid?
Cressida Kroft is somewhat regretting how she shooed Sahlara and Karralo out of the room. Sure, it was overcrowded. But, perhaps if Sahlara was here - and Karralo can't count that much against her - the sane people would better compare in proportion to all the raving lunatics?
That's not their name and yuan-ti aren't even a thing in Pathfinder. They weren't included in the OGL.
Shadows can talk, right? Did anybody try asking them to go away? Like have we actually tried just asking? It's weird that we're resorting to everything else first.
Oh, my landlord's sister's youngest child tried that!
Didn't work.

This isn't a numbers game, it's a "how fast can you talk" game.
The sane people have to think first, so they never had a chance.

In tones of abject despair: If you want a god of Travel, Abadar is literally right there.

If you want to talk to a shadow, that's easily enough arranged. Taupir, a reminder that all your preexisting orders remain in full effect.
Now say hello~
Everyone run for it! Trampling people is okay, dying from being trampled is better than dying to a shadow!!

Hey, my first suggestion was great! You all remember that was my idea, right, about the clerics?
Uh, hello
Hi, do you know why all you guys have been killing everyone?
And is there anything we could do to convince you to go away, or else you can keep the city but let us walk out?
Oh, my landlord's sister's youngest child tried that!
Didn't work.
Well of course it didn't, if we're negotiating it won't be with the shadows directly, it'll be with the secret cleric of Urgathoa controlling them!
Maybe if we get everyone a piece of paper, and if you're the cleric of Urgathoa you write down your demands, and otherwise you leave it blank, and then we mix them up so nobody can tell who wrote -
OR SHE COULD JUST REVEAL HERSELF NOW I GUESS, THATS FINE THIS IS ALL FINE PLEASE DONT KILL ME
IF YOU BREAK MY SHADOW WHEN HE'S NOT EVEN FIGHTING BACK YOU WILL BE HIS REPLACEMENT

There was this thing about killing all Korvosans, some people got creepily into it. Now I think people are mostly just hungry.
I don't have the level of... sway, we'll say, to let you out of the city.
I'm not really in charge... no, we'll intensify that. I'm really not in charge.
If this shadow isn't even important why are we talking with it? I don't negotiate with peasants.
