Rond and Lord Padraig looked confused by it all.
Following, they led the group to the barracks intent on uncovering what had occurred.
Vynt shared again what he knew and feared, from his meeting with the sage.
About an evil presence likely located and focused on the keep, with a harrowing history behind it.

Discussing among themselves, they pass a young dwarf, familiar to Ignatz, the very merchant aiding the town. Stahl and Vynt and more or less dragged along, insisted by Lord Padraig who states clearly that their use is great now and they should not deter from the task at hand.
As Malph turns towards the Gnome, it shrugs.
"Have not seen the watcher who was sent their. Let me go check quickly. I will be right outside his shop!"
[At the Regulars Barracks]
Ninaren is placed heavily into a large wooden chair and bound to it, her head slumped forward. Rond rummages through her belongings and her pockets and find a small pouch, and some silver candles, worth a pretty penny. The Lord hands both to you as a reward(50 gold per candle, 120 gold in the pouch). He also produces a vellum and asks Vynt to read it.

I received your report on the adventurers. Next time you see them, put an end to their meddling. Mix the blood of ten people with the elixir my messenger brings. Then trace the following pattern on the ground of a graveyard and pour the liquid into the lines. That should supply you with a force to thwart them. I’m very close to completing my work and cannot be interrupted. As you already know, if you do come to the second level of the keep,
the pass phrase is “From the ground, some magic was found.”
Using common field medic trickery, Rond does his best to wake her, ending in a bucket of water and a heavy slap that almost tears her neck.
"WAKE UP! - AND SPEAK!"
Rond's voice is almost gravely and dark, and he is quite imposing if he wants to.
She awakes and snarls.
"The dark mistress shall avenge med and devour you! Ask!"
Insight might detail further, any social skills can be used against her.
