It is time. All the pieces are in place. We move now.
Do we have a duplicate ready to take Jaron's place? That's been part of the plan for a while, IIRC.

They're in place and waiting for your word. Of course, they're only going if there's a reason to. If you smash and grab, cat's out of the bag. The duplicate is only going in the event that you manage to secure Jaron without being detected.

Hmm it would be better to sneak in and get him out then, while defaulting to smash and grab if we get caught.
Our immediate win condition is to get him to the Senzu's without revealing where they are hidden but to deal with Dandeer, we need to ensure that she is caught with her magic sealed before anything drastic happens.
The major unknowns here are Jaron, Father and Dandeer's magic. Dandeer's magic is a risk in every plan, but we can mitigate this by having Jaffur and Dandelor by our sides when we tackle her. The former is a strong sorcerer and the latter is a master whose been preparing to fight Dandeer in particular.
We'll need to neutralise Jaron when he remembers everything but between us, Dandelor, his grandfather and hopefully Jaffur we should be able to convince him not to go half-cocked and restrain him if we have to. To neutralise our father as a threat, we need to ensure that at least one super saiyin is one hand to slow him down if need be and try convince him to work with us or at least stand down.
So my plan would be either With Cat-Like Tread or Stealth Game, with Yammar in position with the Senzu and Grandma being ready to intercept our father. Should we succeed, we should use Multi-form to simultaneously begin preparations for facing down Dandeer. First clone stays with the Senzu, to help with Jaron when he wakes up. Second joins Grandma in order to either negotiate with or restrain our dad, while the third makes miscellaneous preparations like our friends and our people/Papata Fren. There would be no point in saving multiform for later in the conflict as we'd want to be at full power.
Then once we have Jaffur and Dandelor free, we move on to Dandeer.
In the case that we get caught early, we can count on Yammar to protect/coordinate the Senzu and grant them legitimacy in case they have to deal with Vegetans while our grand-mother can delay our father. This mostly still ensures that Jaffur is free, but makes things much harder while lowering Dandeer's life expectancy by a lot.
I'm fairly confident that she can't handle multiple super-saiyins, otherwise she wouldn't have needed to depend on our dad and us during the prologue but it still makes things more riskier and less clean compared to what it could be.
My choice on what level of stealth we would want to go for depends on how good we are at stealth. @PoptartProdigy can Dandelor provide us with a stealth spell? Does he think that might be helpful? Also, what's their assessment of the wards that the house has? Presumably Dandelor has been inside at some point, and Jaffur has been sensing the wards for a while now, so any insights they have would be useful.
Baring any new information however, I'm leaning towards Stealth Game because I'm not confident that we have the mundane stealth needed not to get caught. What's everyone's thoughts?

I really do think it would be good to use one of our multiform charges when we go for the grab. Make sure we can deal with multiple problems at once. If nothing else, we're going to want to make sure we get to dad first, before Dandeer does.
EDIT: To say nothing of the fact that giving an interview as the sealing is being undone on what truly happened that night would seriously put Dandeer on the back foot, and could be a useful political tool. We'd have to be careful to ensure that Berra isn't seriously damaged in the process, but it could be quite the win for us.

This sort of high pressure open ended vote is going to get so few votes. Which is a real shame.

I was just about to vote for this and then I realized: If we take Jaron in the middle of the day rather than before sunrise, that means Dandeer will be masqued and in Horus Bay when the unsealing is done.

[X] Yes. Go now and extract Jaron to Hall Senzu.
-[X] Stealth game. Before you move in to get Jaron, take down the sentries. It'll give you some time before anybody can raise the alarm, and keep them out of harm's way.

What does Dandeer's masqued identity do during the day? Does she work, stay at home, something else? That should be something Kakara knows with how long this is been planned for.

Almost certainly, if you decide to go stealth route.
If there's low turnout, I'll just have to reduce the amount of player input into Kakara's actions. I do take note of what does and does not get a response, and adjust how I present choices to match. If people don't like having this kind of control, I'll scale it back.
Depends on the day. Today, as stated, she is in the Hall.

He has Mind Delve, though, and Kakara is pure of heart.
