Scene 5: Saloon
Back of the Saloon
I am unclear whether Samuel is meant to encounter the monsters or not. Either way, as he moved out of the back of the saloon towards the outhouse, he definitely would have seen the banshee in the air and not far from him. He can be arriving at his parked Behemoth now.
In Front of the Saloon
The monsters ride hard over and the down the ridge. As they draw closer, however, they slow to a trot. The loogaroo lands on the roof of a shed and kicks up a cloud of dust doing so. All of the creatures stare at Kallista and Ethan who stand before them. Even the horses are staring. The monsters are now within range of most weapons, but they are not yet reaching for their own energy weapons. None of them seem to have noticed Polkatain the cat.
Inside the Saloon
Arulas' psi-sword takes form in his hand. Usually, this would cause a lot of shock and alarm in a tavern, but these patrons seem distracted by something internal. Only the bartender and the red haired girl who was dancing on the bar seem to even notice. The bartender reaches for a club hidden underneath the bar. The saloon girl acts more shocked and backs away from the PCs. Most of the people in this saloon are peering down into their glasses with either frowns or scowls. The girl at the piano is loudly weeping. The few who are not affected are inquiring what is wrong with those who are.
Doc, Nyx, and Arulas head for the front door following Ethan's brief appearance. They will arrive outside whenever they like.
The coyote howl from outside seems louder now that it is not being drowned out by the music. It seems to be coming from the back corner of the building, near the exit that Samuel took. It is sounding less and less like a coyote.
