The fighters arrange Khumarr's shell to look like he'd slain the entire Heavy Patrol and was slain in turn.

We leave the basement and find another basement to use as our new hideout.

"What are we veiling as today, sister?" says Tebryn.

We agree on:

Drow Cleric of Kiaransalee for Veracity
Drow Ranger for Brianna
Drow Ranger for Tebryn
Abyssal Ghoul for Igor - especially large with an especially long tongue
Abyssal Ghoul for Kress
Abyssal Ghoul for Hazen
Abyssal Ghoul for Yol dripping blood from claws and teeth
Khumar is himself as his old corporeal self.

We encounter another Heavy Patrol.
