"I don't have those answers, but it is the truth!" Caelynn says. "There are a number of reasons as to why your mistress would be willing to accept the mission." She knocks another arrow and fires. It didn't really seem like she was going to be able to convince this elf that she was on the wrong side.

The Elf glares at her. "I will ask the Mistress about this--after you are dealt with," she says. Tympany tosses another glob of acid at the assassin, but he dodges it easily. Caelynn fires an arrow directly at the mage, but she summons a magic shield to block it and fires back with a powerful fire bolt. She gestures for the assassin to also attack Caelynn, and he manages to land a hit on her.

"Get the mage," Caelynn says to Meine as she moves in to attack the elf mage with her sword. She was the most dangerous, so if they could take her down, then maybe they could take the last spy down afterwards.

The remaining assassin lunges at Tympany with his sword, but Tympany holds up a magical shield to block the attack. However, he manages to strike around it for his next assault, injuring her. She, in turn, tosses a bubble of acid at the Elf, who takes the brunt of the attack but manages to keep her hold on Valerie. Following Caelynn's instructions, Meine rushes at the Elf and badly injures her with two quick blows, causing her to lose her concentration and Valerie to come to her senses. As Caelynn fires an arrow at her, Meine pushes the Elf into the shot, which sends her crumpling to the ground.
"We better kill the last one before she bleeds to death!" Meine says with a smirk, as Valerie creeps up behind the assassin and stabs him in the back.

With the elf mage down, Caelynn turns to attack spy 2 with her shortsword. "I'm content to let her die at this point. The dedication these people have to the Night's Breath is cult like."

Meine shrugs at Caelynn's response. "Fine by me." The last assassin unleashes a pair of desperate blows on Tympany, wounding her badly. As she falls to the ground, bleeding, Meine dashes up to him and stabs him through the chest. Before she even pulls the sword out, Caelynn strikes a killing blow against the assassin. As the dust settles, Valerie rushes to Tympany and bandages her wounds.
"We should probably tie the last one up," she notes, pointing to the sleeping assassin.
"Or kill 'em," Meine suggests.

Caelynn walks up to the sleep spy, and silent slits his/her throat since she doubts they'll get any information out of them. "We should take Daos and Tympany back to the inn," she says. "We know where the entrance to this lair is, so we can check it out after we get some rest."

"You sure? What if there are more Night's Breath down here? We'd be letting them escape," Meine says.
"If there are more Night's Breath, all the more reason to rest before exploring," Tympany retorts.

"We aren't in any condition to continue our search right now," Caelynn says. She walks over to Daos. "Someone help me with him."

Meine, assists Caelynn in picking up Daos. Valerie, struggling a little, carries Tympany. They manage to take them back to the inn without any trouble, and with only a few odd looks from the patrons. After resting the night and explaining what happened to Daos, the party meets in the inn's common room.
"So, back to the hideout?" Valerie suggests.
