Reclaiming Paphos

We should be taking this slow. We likely should wait to watch where the patrols are and then try to time things to avoid them. On the other hand, that could just open us to be found if we are accidentally on a patrol route. The only other thing we could try is to have Arc go aloft to get a survey and report back on the crystal communicator. But I don't want him to get completely separated from us, either. Or get shot again.

Arc jumps to the roof, flying as close to the walls as possible trying to avoid detection.
Once up there, he looks for patrols and for a clear way to the Lady's place, and reports findings through the crystal

Arc reports back what he sees. If he has been spotted or not, as long as those armoured guys don't do anything, there's not much we can do.
How can we profit from other groups animosity?

Arc tells the team a crazy idea: he may start a fight by shooting arrows to the archers stationed in those roofs. That WILL alert the whole remnant, and maybe (if other groups join against those in armour) start an all out battle.
The rest of or team should be waiting as close as possible to the Lady's place, to try to get there in the confusion... but to close enough to be involved in the battle. Maybe that spot is just outside one of the other entrances. Arc would try to provide some cover, distract the archers of that side... Or we could just position ourself and then wait for other groups to start fighting...

Another option is to go ahead, directly to one of those southern doors, and try to meet peacefully with the guys in armour. We don't know who they are, so they may be willing to negotiate our passing as long as there is no battle to put them on edge.

Or do you have better plan?

I wouldn't want you to get in any danger without the chance for us to help you Arc.

Your plan is a good idea, but if they spot you shooting, you will quickly become their main target.

I am all for diplomacy, but does anyone had any idea of how to approach them before they attempt to slain us?

Kaarik is right, one of us alone would make an easy target. We could try to simply approach a small group of them and see what happens?

Is Geis still with us?

"I am concerned that the armored figures are undead soldiers, and I am not sure whether they are intelligent undead, like Geis, or if they are unintelligent undead under the complete control of necromancers. Attempting to make contact could just be betraying our position."

"The problem is that the building we have to get into is controlled by these armored figures. So, even if we can talk the lizards or goblins into helping us, we would be asking them to help us attack. I am not sure what we have to entice them to help us.

"On the other hand, making contact might not be a bad idea. We could pull back and try a different entrance closer to where a specific group we want to talk to is camping out."

"I am all for trying to discuss with the kobolds. At least to get more insights on the armoured faction and on what's going on here"

"Not sure it will do much, but we can always come back and try this approach again if we need to. If nothing else, maybe we can convince them we aren't hurting their cause when we make our move."

Arc, still in the roof, ask through the crystal...
What's going on down there? The armours haven't done anything strange, but where are you?
