The mercenary shrugs, sneers at Maed, knowing that time is not in their visitor's favour.

"Your threat is an empty one, fiendling. We worked for that one under legal contract, signed and verfied by the city officials.

Indeed helping you here is more dangerous then just standing down and surrender to the city guards.

You want our help? Pay us."

Again it shows that while this place is evil and twisted it is also very lawful, rules being followed and exploited for personal gain.

The fiend cries out in pain as it is mutilated and then pierced by the Fey'ri's weapon, struggling in her grip but lacking the strenght to break free but there are shouts from outside, demanding the door to be opened in infernal and common.

Ganatog succeeds to pick up three crates at once carrying them over to the door. Behind it there is a small flight of stairs leading down...


((spot and search for Ganatog, please))

"So you will willingly be detained for questioning while it can be avoided? Aid me with this and you will avoid such troubles that has no reward. The reward for this one we can split. Or.." She turns he head to them again that previously had been fixed upon the door as she was waling towards it with the devil. "Mayhap you want all of it along the status that comes within this city for dealing with this hated foe alone? None need to know about the ore or what is missing."

Stopping close to the door she held the devil fast twisting her blade halfway skyward so that it laid across his front body from hip to shoulder. Grasping it at his chest.

((Taking objects with you with DD they must all be touched by the caster? Or is it sufficent that they in contact with each other as box stacked on box? And if as in this case the boxes are filled with smaller objects the box itself is the only "touched object"? Trying to take a unwilling creature with you it must fail a will save and overcome it's SR right?))

((She can transport objects up to her maximum carrying weight. Lets say each box weighs about 500lb. Dimension Door does not allow the transport of unwilling creatures. ))

"Half of the reward.... we have a deal."

He turns to his companions. "Help them... be quick."

The mercenaries take up the boxes, hurrying after the Jotun- the door will be forced open, soon.

"Once the crates are secured, open the door." She commanded. Tilting her head while looking at the door.

She whsipered to the devil. "Another deal could have been arranged but alas. You still have your life do not gamble that away poorly as you cast our deal into ruination. Behave."

Ganatog did not need the sellswords' help with finding the concealed door thar leads down to the tunnel and quicky he is joined by the Hobhoblins who now eagerly lend their strenght to the Jotuns cause.

The tunnels are dark, the air hot and dry, the stone walls roughly hewn and reingorced with iron.

Above the doors are opened and a squad of the city guard in bladed armour enters, their leader holding a lenght of spiked chain ready in her hands.

"Stand down snd surrender in the name of Lord Paracs!"

The Abishai goes limp with fear but Maed might be relieved as she sees her two missing companions with the second squad outside- bruised but alive and not bound like the two guards from the devils household.

Reliquished her blade that was pressed agains this chest. Still holding the sword's hilt in her left mainhand. Thereafter she withdrew her sword pulling it out of the Abishai's rented and maimed body. She took a twohanded grip and wielded it in a twisting arch so it came over her head before she strucked the Abishai from behind with the blunt side at his shoulder aiming to send him staggering towards the guards.

"I did expect loyalist unto this one hence the forestallment. It is well that you arrived." She lied looking to the leader.

Slowly she made a faint nod. "So they are."

"Release them.", she tells her troopers and the mercenaries quickly join Mead, shifting a bit uncomfortably.

Then she looks at Mead again. "You will stay here while we search the building. Then you get your reward.... and you all can go. If everything is alright, of course."

She gestured to her soldiers who fall upon the fiend quickly, binding the maimed creature quickly with chainst of solver, humming with enchantments.

"So you rooted it out.. a Devil among us. This blight that might pull us all down into hells.

You did well to surrender but what brings you here? I do not see the mark of the hunter on you nor are you of the city watch."

The gnoll was about to say something but he is silenced by the look of one of the guards, the bugbear tensing a bit but looking at the fiend... then he is nodding into its direction while finding Maed's eyes.
