The blonde guard captain turns to look at another guardsman to his left, this one a half-elf wielding a long sword with a short bow slung across his back. The half-elf shrugs noncommittally in response to the captain's gaze, and the captain turns back to face the group in front of him. When he speaks his tone is considerably softer than before.

That's very.. civic minded of you.

Unfortunately there's nothing to be done right now. The Royal staff are preparing an announcement which will be broadcast across the city at noon, until then we're advising people to return to their homes.

Wait.. give your names to sergeant Tully here, he says, indicating the half-elf. If there're any relief efforts later on you'll be at the top of our list of volunteers.


The half elf steps forward, pulling a wax writing tablet and stylus from a belt pouch at his back. He grips the stylus and looks up expectantly.

Awlright -sniff- What's your names?

I'm not sure if Chiva wants to approach the balcony as well. If he did, then the captain was addressing him as well as Rodrick and Zeela.
