The stew indeed smells delicious, making it hard for Nekurr to focus on much else. It's evident Tabbins feels unmoored, but it's difficult to ascertain much more than that.

Y'all just hanging back? Moving in to speak to her? Something else?

I'm just waiting for a runner to tackle.. I mean I'm in the back in an open area stretching my legs out with high steps... for health reasons...

Jacey makes her way to the front of the line and receives her portion of slop. She steps back and begins to wolf it down. She drains her cup of water and looks around nervously.
OOC:
Pausing once more.

Tronus exhales slowly, "You two go talk to her..." he states before moving away to intercept at the closest route of exit away from them.

Nekurr copies exactly what Jacey just did: waits in line, tries to get some food and then moves to sit next to the girl.

Mcneils5 is on holiday, so I'm stalling a bit until he's back. But you two can go ahead and roll a simple Vigilance check (no difficulty).

It all happens so fast. While Nekurr is waiting in line for stew, Tronus tries to assess likely paths in or out of the area. His vigilance pays off, as he notices the same group of thugs from the castle corridors moving to block the road leading to Buzzard Town. Jacey Tabbins seems to notice, as well, and she looks ready to run... somewhere.
OOC:
Having a hard time finding a suitable battle map. Imagine you're outside the castle, along its north wall. There's an entrance into the medical ward of the chapel here, with a line of people for stew arrayed outward along a path that leads to Buzzard Town. Buzzard Town is located to the east of the castle. There's another path around the perimeter of the castle to the west that would eventually lead to the mining settlement. Beyond that, there are only hills to the north with footpaths through them. The roads toward Nornholt are on the other side of the castle, leading southwestward.

Tl;dr: The only exits are into the castle, north along footpaths into the hills, west along a path to the mining settlement, or east along a path to the refugee settlement. Renash's grunts are approaching from the direction of Buzzard Ford (from the east).

We're at a potential chase and/or fight. A PC gets to go first!

Tronus sighed pulling his shield and sword rapidly moving between the girl and manlings.

"Since we're not in the Castle, go in now, or wonder why you bunch of dull rocks are getting cracked against each other. You're boss ever think he should really pay you all for what you're capable of? And stop holding hands and looking confused." Tronus demands spitting in there direction.

OOC:
You want to make a Coercion check, Remnant? If so, your difficulty is Average (PP). You'll take 2 strain in such a case, as it's 2 maneuvers to equip your sword and shield. If you don't want to make the check, we'll move on to them.

OOC:
Quick draw pull shield, sword pull, then move tween them and girl. If the get closer and attack should be okay I warned them. Oh let me know if they swing on me. Xd

The Human in Renash's colors raises his empty hands. "Whoah there, old man! We don't want any trouble. We just wanted to make sure our employee there was feeling OK." He continues moving toward Tronus, hand moving toward his sword but not drawing it. He looks toward Jacey. "You doing all right there, lassie? Come now, girl, you agreed to work for us..."

The girl responds with a rude gesture involving a single finger on her right hand. Nevertheless, she hesitates...

"You lot implying you know how to actually work much less emoloy someone is laughable. Stop trying to sound clever because you learned a 5 copper concept."
OOC:
Clever retort from Tronus too.

OOC:
I was thinking about he slipping out his true goal in frustration. though unless there is a truer goal, it is pretty obvious what he wants. 3 threats is also enough to learn a fear or desire which we can use to rough him up in socially acceptable ways

OOC:
With Tronus stacking his Clever Retort on hers, that gets you to 5 threat, pretty significant. Getting Jacey to talk was actually going to be an issue, so I think I can run with "revealing a motivation" plus use the remaining 2 to get her to open up a bit...
The girl cowers behind Nekurr and trembles. "I don't want to go back into those tunnels! Ever since we went down there, something's been trying to get me—like there's something inside me!"

The man shakes his large head. "Now now, love. You're touched in the head, that's all. Ms. Olond just wants to make sure you get the care you need. Now come with us into the chapel..."
OOC:
Revealing his Desire (to get her to be admitted to the clinic).

That's back around to a PC; we're social now, but things could still go sideways.
