Here's another clever idea.

How about we all head approximately twenty meters North and go inside the Guildhouse?

Oh.

Well, Drake is likely outside, literally right next to us. He was in the bar with us. We don't have to look far. A mini-mission is probably unnecessary, and thank Mot because Alan and Kuro? Without sufficient attending witnesses to dissuade him, Kuro would probably try and break Alan's arms and then dismantle his fancy gold and silver metal plated pistols the next time he draws them without actually firing them immediately.

EDIT: Also it occurs to me we were initially promised an opportunity for all our characters to get their affairs in order before actually leaving for the mission proper.
