With a little bow, he excuses himself from the catbird, walking to where Skies, Silver and Star are talking.
"I can manage breaking a few beaks for some of that bounty," he offers. "My hooves are all about that."

Silver sighs after having thought on it for a minute. "I do not know solution to this predicament. However, right now, I am not so concerned about laws of land as I am making sure that as many people get out of this building alive as possible. Removing as many guards out of picture as we can in shortest period of time would do much to minimize risk to these people's lives. To your life."

I suppose I can make Iron drink another Cure Light Wounds.

Iron decides to drink up the last Cure Light Wounds potion, knowing that he's well stocked on more care intensive healing items.

He looks to Silver wondering how hurt he is.

Sounds worthy of a Cure Moderate Wounds.
Iron, gazing over Silver's visage, decides to lightly poke him on his chest, pulling out a Cure Moderate Wounds off his belt.
"Take the potion. Your body is worse for wear," he says flatly, eyes staring at his in a cool, calm and firm gaze.

Silver's tired eyes lock with his before he takes hold of the potion. "Thank you." He grins mischeviously as he whispers into Iron's ear. "Good to see you had fun with Sands while you were gone. Going to need that clear mind for what is coming."

With that, he pulls back, and downs the potion.

A magical glow shines out of his wounds as they heal. They don't heal perfectly, but the color has returned to his skin, and at worst looks to be on the lower end of lightly wounded.

41 out of 50 Hit Points after the potion.

He sighs. "Then I shall put it like this: I will do my best to make sure you all get out of here alive." He hikes up his greatsword's sheath. "We should not keep them waiting, then. Every minute spent here is another minute they have to prepare. Should we demand their surrender before we engage them in combat?"

Mala steps forward, and speaks
“There are two group of them. One group lives here, in the dorms here. The Society gives them the free dorms. I think all of them come from across the sea, from just one or two places. The other group is in the neighbor hood and lives there. They come from many more places. They meet together I think, I am not sure how often, I think in the middle building. That must be what they are doing. Waiting for the time of the meeting”

“Yes. Fairly regularly”

A cloud looms further over the horizon, and what looks like guards if a sort move around on top of the higher ground above the mine, while more inside seem to move over to workers, shouting to them. A few machines, power shovels, front-end loaders, and trucks that seem to be military style logistics trucks with dump truck beds added to the back, move around. Many more do not. Rumbling sounds come from a plant off to the side of the mine. A cold wind blows, and the leaves of the trees above the kind move with it. Beneath those trees, the remnants of forest appear dark.
