Heretics resistance 1: First killings

General Summary

The story starts on the 6th of Bryt in the year 655 The party originally met in the sunken cups, an inn run by Dhriti, a Half-dwarf and friend of Benjmin. While the party who consist of Benjamin a tiefling who is currently serving as a body guard to Orion (one of the other party members), Andry a little halfling who wandered into this inn and Orion a human who was led to the in by Benji in a pursuit of a place to sleep and eat for now. Andry and Orion first bumped into eachother on the street after which they went into the same inn where they bantered further.
Out in the street however a young tiefling was being harrased by 2 witchhunters. As the party notices that, they come in to intervene, eventually convincing the withchunters to back off, though the witchhunters did make a note of the young tiefling boy. The boy was named Finnian.
Finnian after some trouble (mainly with orion) convinces the now group to kill a witchhunter named Arild (or just get out the city, but probably kill) then the party got drunk while Orion brooded in the corner, Andry saw a cat with wings being bought and wanted to buy it from them, the person said for 150 gold they'd sell the cat again to make a profit, but if they would find a better buyer they would just sell it there. The next morning the party goes out to scout out the area where Arild would be on downtime, the Rose drinking house.
The party scouts The Rose, the drinking house where most of the witchhunters often go, since its close to the headquarters of the witchhunters. After finding a back alleyway, they can lead their target into with a plan. they wait In the evening they find Arind the witchhunter slightly drunk, ranting to another witchhunter, who quickly leaves and leaves the ranting Arind with Orion who walked up to say that they found somebody with arcane tattoo's, So Arind comes with Orion following them into the alleyway, where Benjmin is holding Andry. Arils inspects the tattoo's but as they are about to take in Andry, Orion triest to slit the throat of the witchhunter but fails. A fight ensues which is after many misses settled by a massive axe blow from Benj.
The next evening. Andry buys Flapjack the flying cat the party has a nice evening with Flapjack drinks, finnian is there too in the evening all of a sudden the witchhunters walk in and come and take people from the inn, a person the party didn't know AND Finnian, who was noted as a suspected heretic, the kid freeses in fear, but Orion tries to convince the witchhunter that Finnian can't be a heretic. they however do not succeed in anything except stalling time. After the commotion goes on for some time, a metal masked witchhunter walks in, and says they will take the kid regardless, while Orion tries diplomacy, Andry lets her tongue slip and calls the witchhunters terrorists in front of the masked witchhunter, which as a respone grabs the throat of Andry.
