Fossice/Central Market/Alley
Late morning
Round 0
Magdalena readied her greatsword for another swing, but the tide of battle seemed to have turned. A flash of arcane energy from around the corner indicated a conjuration, and suddenly a slippery substance caused the enemy magi to lose their balance and clatter to the cobblestones. Magdalena saw the flash of an illusion spell and then they disappeared. Invisibility, obviously. After uttering an ominous threat, the lead mage turned her wand on herself and crumpled to the ground.
"A spell! I...oh...Did I kill anyone?" Arcata asked the monk, her hand stealing towards her mouth. "I remember...I tried not to."
“No, you slept through most of it,” Magdalena said, only somewhat sarcastically. “Only one died, and that by my hand.” She knelt down next to the dead mage, riffling through his robes, looking for any indication of who he was and who had sent him.

"Nicolo, signora paladina, we must get off the streets. Surely the watch will be out in force, and we all know they won't be in a friendly mood. And they hardly have the knowledge needed to understand, well, whatever it was that was happening here. Do any of you know someplace we might repair to, so that we can compare notes to figure out what in the Maker's name is going on?"
Magdalena looked up to see a gnome in trade clothes with a large satchel. “We should report the unauthorized attack to the Witchguard,” the paladin said with a frown.
"My flat is close," the monk said. "But...small. It will do to regroup, though."
"Maker's breath! Why are...why is everyone here? What is happening here?" Arcata asked.
Magdalena shook her head. “You tell us,” she said. “Everyone seems to be interested in you,” the paladin pointed out.
Everyone seemed to be moving out of the alley. Magdalena frowned, uncertain what to do. She did not have paper to leave a note. Finally she knelt down next to the dead body of the mage. Dabbing her fingers in the man’s blood, she marked the sign of the Maker on his forehead, adding her own personal glyph to mark it as her responsibility. The Witchguard wouldn’t recognize it, but they would certainly recognize the mark of the Church. If they made inquiries and showed the glyph, word would reach her and she could arrange a time to explain what had happened.
Wiping her fingers clean of blood on the mage’s robes, Magdalena stood and followed after the others.
