When you return to the temple hall you find Brentan Firepeak, the first deputy of the city, and Udarin Thate, the second deputy. They are accompanied by twenty constables, all with armor and weapons of their choice. Brentan has a black sash over his sword belt and a round shield at his side. He looks grim and looks at Parker and your entourage with narrowed eyes. Udarin has a short sword, more delicate than Brentan's heavy, gladius style, blade. He also has two wands and riding boots. He seems happier to see you.
Brentan begins: "Greetings Lord Arishimoto, it is well that you are here; there are drow about. Never in my life would I have believed it; wugs and now drow within sighting distance of Phiam! These are dark times indeed. Your retinue (by which he clearly means the rest of you) are welcome to go on the hunt with us as well, though I must warn you, I sent word to Grimdrek Sledgehammer of the attack and he means to meet us with twenty five of his elite guards at the site of the attack."
