Imperium Article 12: The Watch Is Hereby Authorized To Act In Defense Of Their Betters

General Summary

• After intense debate and preparations, the party decided to go for the Captain first, in order to use him in the attempt to free Detective Nox and her family. The party, Mrs. Captain, Alicel, and the Brothers Lasagna set off through the city, eventually taking a hidden blood-covered tunnel out of the city. There, they went underneath the city docks to come upon a little rowboat, the Juniper Smile. Mrs. Captain explained that it's the Captain's boat, he likes fishing. They set off for the meeting place specified in the Captain's ransom note, an abandoned smuggler's cove outside the city along the Ularnulim River.
• Once there, a magically amplified voice thanked Mrs. Captain for making the right choice and taunting the party. On the way in, several undead emerged from the river, with the voice giving instructions for the party to simply not resist. 
• They resisted. 
• In order to buy time, Alicel led the Brothers Lasagna over the side of the little boat and started punching zombies to a more permanent state of death. The three of them were heavily, heavily outnumbered, but the sacrifice gave the party the ability to get to the cover proper without using up any resources. They found waiting for them Nadia Chance, Mr. Falcon, and Bugsy LeLore. The Captain was in a cage in the back, bleeding excessively, and Chompers was muzzled and chained to where he just barely couldn't reach his master. 
• LEAP INTO ACTION!
• An epic battle ensued. The party ended up freeing the captain, and Chompers grew big and took him and Mrs. Captain away. Mr. Falcon summoned a trio of trained dolphins, who would heal their fallen and carry them away. But Chompers, being the bestest boy, came back and started ineffectually fighting the marine menaces while the party took the actual victory. 
• Afterwards, the gang filled in the Captain, now healed, and set off to rescue Nox. Alicel and the Brothers were beat up, but would live. They and Mrs. Captain would watch the prisoners. Sora, sensing trouble ahead, entrusted Mrs. Captain with Donald's safety. 
• They arrived at the warehouse where Nox was being held. There they met the Man In Black, or Lt. Samael, who thanked them for bringing the Captain. (The party pretended he was a prisoner, you see). They saw Detective Nox, her wife, and their two kids chained to the walls and being guarded by a fucking plate-armored lion. After realizing that Samael would not have hurt those kids, a chance was taken. Morubash shoved the captain out of the way, rushed forward, and landed a sucker punch on that smug elf's hooded face.
