WELL, IF WE'RE RESCUING RANDOM PEOPLE NOW--

The man is healed, but he's still in pretty rough shape. 

And Cayden has unburned hands again. You're welcome. 

"Thanks," he says.

Are Wyll or Gale helping the elf lady and her guards?

Gale has cast Create Water over the stairs. They're less likely to start burning, but they are slippery. 

Lae'zel has decided the correct response is to pick up the elf lady like a sack of potatoes and is now making her way down the stairs.

Good on Lae'zel!

"Lae'zel, everyone else out?"

Now the doors are cleared, the rest of the guards are going down the stairs. 

Astarion and Wyll are awkwardly carrying a half unconscious person. (Karlach is following, looking like she wishes she could help more. Astarion is Complaining.)

There's a woman's voice you don't recognise from down the stairs. "There's one mo-- ah, there they are."

Cool. Now that everyone's out of the house they can get going, right?

They can leave!

What a nice non-moral-dilemma-filled thing that just happened! Helping people! Yay!

"Thank you for your assistance, we were attacked by Drow--" She spots Wyll. "Wyll?"

If the ground could open up underneath him, that would be very convenient right now. "Counsellor Florrick, it's good to see you again."

Dammit that was too easy. 

"We're really very busy," Cayden says. "Time-sensitive rescue mission. We've got to get going."

"We appreciate your help all the more then. If after you've done your rescue mission, you can try and rescue Grand Duke Ravengard, that would also be appreciated. He was with our party and captured."

AAAAAAAAAAAAA?

"We will definitely consider that! I'm sure Wyll can brief us."

"He was taken west by Drow. Good luck with your current mission."

Walk walk walk very determinedly playing I Spy with Lae'zel and trying to get her to spy, like, trees or birds or something.

She keeps finding berry bushes. There's so many. 

...he should actually brief Cayden. "Duke Ravengard is my father."

"Aroden's balls."

He doesn't know who Aroden is, but he concurs. "I would much rather he was still safe in the Gate."

"We... add it to the to-do list, I guess?"

"Halsin is a higher priority. Can't really save my father if we've turned into squids."

"...do you want to talk about it?"

"There isn't much to say." That's not under a geas.

"I never would have picked you as Ravengard's spawn. I should have, though. You've both the got the irritating self righteousness."
