[OoC: Wow, I wish I could roll so well when making my character's Spot and Listen checks. ]
[OoC2: Kee's cat wasn't resting in front of the Shop door. There is a porch outside the door and the cat was laying off to the right, and would have to be tied up far enough away from the door so the cat couldn't reach anyone wanting to walk up the stairs and step inside. As stated the windows are extremely dirty so it is unlikely that anyone would have casually seen the cat laying outside without stating they were making an effort to peer through the haze. As for the plinks of the darts, I would imagine you would need at least a listen check [not a huge DC though] to hear and distinguish the tiny plinks from whatever other noise his Full Plate was making.
Kee pauses a moment to scan the direction the tiny darts were shot from and he notices about six helmets peeking over top the slate roofs across the street. He also notices some movement in spaces between buildings. The street is quiet except for a large fountain that's about 40' away and a strange rhythmic droning noise emanating from above the two awnings that completely covered 45' of the store front. Peeking through the narrow space between awnings, Kee spots what he thinks is an AirShip. It's large bladed propellers were making the low droning while holding it in a stationary position about 50' above the Smithy.
While Selina orders her companions to stay away from the windows, Eek asks the Smith about a back door. He shakes his head and says, "No. Window's and doors are barred up. Lots of break-ins around 'ere."
[Meanwhile...]
Piper frowns at Gilley. "What sort of calling? You are a ranger which means you have some connection with the forest. What further connection were you looking for? You say you've lost something something precious to you... Were you reincarnated? Help me to understand. Perhaps I can help."
