[And just like that, the baby goes from an it to a whole ass human being. Not a demon in their eyes, but a child who obviously cannot be blamed for the actions of all these adults.
In the bassinet, the baby stares up at Taair and Hawke with big, curious eyes. Makes a small noise, blissfully unaware of the horrors that have transpired.
Meanwhile, Adolphe threatens the maid! I ain't even going to roll for this. She's just an unarmed woman, scared out of her mind and completely defenseless. All she can really do is beg for mercy and try to press herself closer to the wall. So it's probably a good thing that Richie tries to intercept, because it would be all too easy for Adolphe to kill her.
Also, just for your awareness: Smoke is starting to filter into the room. The crackling of fire draws closer.]
