RECAP:
The group met with the owner of the bar after coming down to the cellar and seeing the carnage. He thanked us for helping and told us there were more Troglodytes coming out of the well by the stables. We all went outside to intercept them. One of his guards and the blind Orc stayed behind in the basement to watch the prisoners.
Once outside, we could see a new group of Troglodytes and the dual dagger wielding leader that escaped from the wine cellar. After a round or two, another more fearsome Troglodyte emerged with a longsword and nice armor. The group engaged in battle almost immediately and tried to stop the gang from advancing.
The Troglodytes seemed to be interested in one of the wagons that Gnome was driving during our caravan journey. They tried to light it on fire with alcohol, but between us and the guards, we were able to stop them before doing any serious fire damage to the cart. After several rounds of battle, we defeated the Troglodytes and knocked out the leader for questioning.
We later found magic weapons and armor on the leaders, some money, and a letter written in Drow stating directions on where we were headed, what cart to assault, and instructions on what to destroy. After questioning the leader, he basically confessed to being hired by Drow to carry this out. He was executed shortly after.
The new mayor eventually made his way to our position and told us a generic description of how he needed to make a "deal" in order to get the position of mayor. It seems it's just the way Dwarven politics work. We discovered the gold the Troglodytes were paid with was minted in the Dwarven Kingdom, so it appears this is some sort of political hit.
After being healed, the mayor invited us to his personal quarters and offered us all jobs as his personal entourage. We would be helping him secure his position as well as help defend the town of Thott. He said he'd pay us all 1000 GP for a year's service. 500 now and 500 at the end of the year. Several of us agreed right away and others said they'd sleep on it. That's where we left off.

Did this week discord drop yet, I didn't see it like last week.
Asinjin:
We shall not sleep
In Dwarven fields
the cold winds blow
Our en'mies weep
As Dwarven shields
Charge row 'pon row
They will not keep
As axes wield
They die below
