...The guards' charred remains are still strewn under the drizzling rain. I've been observing him for hours. It's becoming clear that he isn't planning to leave the house. Well then...

It would be too risky to try and sneak into the building - I can see an occasional shadow moving behind the half-opened shutters, he is ready for guests.
