The guards followed the party with their eyes as they left, the pink haired elf evidently steaming in anger. Zealous as she was, it would have done no good to her or the effort in general to send her out without adequate rebriefing on the situation at large outside. While her anger would be directed to the system that tried to make the best of the situation, to the caravan guards repurposed to guard this entrance the situation was as claer as it was. The bard had made a good case of going, but they'd really need to know just where they would be going.

Once the group found the castellan, Kyra had been quick to give him a piece of her mind. Escobert was not happy to have received the venting of the priestess' irritation, but he understood what they were up to and nodded solemnly as he thought how he could help the situation. Before completely finishing the thought, he said a few words to confirm he had listened: "[color=red]Ah, the guard group that had trouble speaking in any language I knew. Probably just some communication error, let's fix that one right up...[/color]"

Escobert thought whether he could have some way of proving his acceptance in any other way than showing up personally, but after failing to do so he began walking back towards the basement. "[color=red]I'll talk to them. But while we are going, I could share the newest information we have from out there. We don't really know where there might be people to save, if anywhere since most seem to be here. But I can tell that they've showed a worrying interest in our mill. You, if anyone, know how important it is they won't take or destroy all our food reserves. So that's all I can point you to. Or if you are out there for a shorter while, you might just run into some patrol and bring one back from there. Do what you will.[/color]"

Once they made it down, Escobert quickly made the fact the group was pretty much allowed to come and go as they pleased clear to the guards, who accepted it with no protest. The group was let outside, reminded of the proper knock for getting in once more and the door was closed after them. Next would come their plan of action.
