Doc tipped his hat to the lizard man, "Nyx, translate brother." Doc pauses, "We're huntin' the witch true enough, but you gotta think about one more thing friend. What if the dying person had quarrel with the saloon owner...Maybe, maybe not, but what if?"

After ensuring the words of his twin are passed on, Nyx himself adds, "Even if this her house, will it stop her evil? Do you know which of those present may be her? Or even if she is here now. If she escapes to continue to spread such evil then the Swamp Clan will have earned her enmity and attention. Let us make our investigations here and call upon you when we know which of those here must die"

The brothers as always working in tandem. Being close but outside that bond was amusing after all this time. His own abilities offered a hint at that, but not a large one. He smiles at better times. He shakes his head and walks over to Kalista and places a hand on her arm as if to say peace this gets us no closer to our goal. Then he turns and he gets serious.

"The witch as you call her us a threat to all. That she had sent an attack against you should tell you that she already sees you as a threat. But you beat that attack. Foolish of her I know. However you should know that now she will send greater forces against you. Fighting us will only hurt your ability to defend yourselves. I don't want that. What I want and I am sure my companions want is justice. Justice for you and the others that she has attacked. We will defeat the witch have no fear of that. For if we fail we will die. I do not intend to die. When the time comes I hope we can count on you to help defeat the evil in the end. If you can prove to the locals that you only wish to be left alone and that you will not threaten them then maybe things can even get better for the Swamp Clan. Trade with mammals helps all involved. I am sure there are secrets in the swamp that only the Clan has. Secrets that it might share for the right price. Something to think on while you wait for our call." Arulas says in Dragonese hoping that translation is unneeded. If it is Arulas hopes that Nyx takes care of that for him.

Polkitain was getting agitated as even more discussion occurred.
He maintained his guise knowing he might have to help his friends especially if the vulture creature got up to something.

The Swamp Clan warriors confer with each other in whispered mumbled. Then, the logaroo hisses at them. The Lizard Man on the left fingers his holstered gun anxiously. Even the horses seem to speak. The Lizard Man to the right (in the sombrero) speaks for the group, saying, "We have considered your words, mammals. You have claim to the witch's life just as the Swamp Clan does. As a gift from the marsh, we will wait here while you investigate and if she is inside, while you kill the witch. Our duty is to see the witch die this night. The clan will accept the witch's body as proof of justice, but if you claim the body as a trophy, we can settle for just her heart. We will wait no longer than a shedding, about one hour of your time. May your justice be quick and your teeth sharp, mammals."

Annoyed by this development, the banshee flies away in the dark night sky.

Doc nodded to the lizard-man chief, "Boys, we best get to investigatin' then... I say we start with the barmaid."

Polkitain wanders over to Doc giving him a pick me up kitty look.

Doc will do so, and sit him on his shoulder, "We ready boys, and you too Kalista," Doc adds with a grin.

Polkitain purrs.

Ethan listens as the lizardmen and his teammates come to an understanding. He is happy that there will not be any violence, yet at least, between the two groups.

He looks at 'Doc' and nods his head. "Lets go find us a witch," he says to the elf. "No there is something I never thought I would say," he says softly, walking back with his companions.

Standing with the translator, Nyx smiled at his brother taking control of the situation but remained still watching the cyber knight for her reaction

Samuel sticks to his present location and waits for the action to start to see where he can best make a contribution.

Very quietly to Doc,"We need a witch detector."

Kalista nodded to the elf, "Good work, a reprieve. We must work quickly, though, and find our quarry."

Doc nodded to everyone who seemed appreciative of his assistance and grinned at Polk, he whispered quietly, "I can smell witches, can't you?" he feigned surprise.

The cat started sniffing the air and looking around.

"I am not sure."

Doc grinned, "I'm teasing you. But you really might be able, I heard dragons can sense 'magic' and junk... you know all of us. Maybe if you catch another scent, kinda like my sassy brother Nyx...might be her."

Kalista attempted to open her own senses, to sense magic, evil, & the invisible (all are doubled thanks to her opened third eye).

"Ok, I will stay alert." Polkitains ears perked up and he looked all around.

 "I can help identify her if in a room with multiple people, but that is about it."

Nyx nodded to the lizard folk once the Lady Kallista had confirmed she wasn't going to force the fight, turning back to everyone, "I can shoot her, skewer her or make her life troublesome. If someone can confirm who it is"

The PCs (except Samuel) enter the saloon together. The mood inside this watering hole is considerably less lively than it was previously. The patrons have stopped weeping uncontrollably, but they are not happy either. Some are loudly complaining that the drinks made them feel back. Saloon girls are rushing around to deliver fresh mugs to the rowdy customers. The barmaid is pouring drinks as quickly as she can while making no attempt to hide her frustration.

OOC:Activating See Aura

 Arulas walks into the bar and says loudly. "You are all suffering the after effects of a banshee. Be glad that it is only that. Now the first person who can give me so information that will save your lives gets a shot on me and the rest get a beer. I'm looking for a person named Grace. If you can kindly point her out or her residence we and the army of lizard folk will be on our way. If you are stupid enough to attack know that I will win and you will lose and well I will still find the person that I seek. Fair enough?"

Doc almost rolled his eyes at Arulas, "So much for bein' discrete...."

Kalista continued trying to get a read on something magical and evil...
