I'd feel a lot safer with the gauntlet on our hands. Cover it with a mitten, though, so they don't see it. And get something with a hood! We need to kill that guard, loot what we can, and get lost from this fort. Preferably with the resistance- we'll start our own fort, with hookers and blackjack!

If we cover the gauntlet with something, it should be the sock. Anything else and the gauntlet might decide to claw its way out, so to speak.(Dissolving? Burning? High-pressure smoke?) That'd be a waste of the item used.

Also, who knows how long it'll take us to learn how to use the thing, should we try it on.* Trying out the super-weapon(with a handy built-in flare to let others know of its location) in the company of sentients who might well know what it can do is an invitation for a hammer to the head, or an axe to the arm.

*This is following the ever so optimistic scenario wherein we retain relative controll of ourselves once that thing is attached. If that isn't the case, we're in bigger trouble.

Alchohol depravation claims yet another victim. A sad fate, if any.

Just take your axe and cut him, we don't know who this guy is but well...we're kind of running out of people who don't want to kill us...
But...I'm not a good fighter...
Doesn't bloody matter! Just run up there and backstab the fool!
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
I can't kill someone!
You already killed the fisherman you spineless piece of shit!
I di....I didnt do that! That was you!
You got no choice! Hurry!
-uhh...uhh...WHHAAAAAAA
*chrrrllkk*
That...was a horrible attack... You expect to killl someone with that?
* A spray of blood flows down from above*
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
-AAAAAHHHHHHHH!
Guess you lucked out this time... and why are you screaming?
There's...there's blood everywhere!
Sigh...

Suddently the room when fairly quiet apart from the sound of dripping blood and the heavy breathing of the hurt and exhausted combatants.

-All dead?
*a faint mumbeling spreads across the survivors*
-Good.
...
-By the way, who the fuck are you?
-Uhmm...me?
-Yea, you didn't seem to be on good terms with the warden there.
-Well...yes.
-You don't talk a lot do you?
-Are you guys trying to bring down the warden?
-Huh?...hahaarchahaha, I'm sorry I think you've got your facts wrong there mate.
-Oh...
-We're...uhmm...merchants so to say.
-Then why are you fighting with the warden!?
-You're kinda slow aren't you...
-But...
-Let's say that our goods might not be perfectly legal at all times and let's also say that our business might be somewhat...beneficial to nobles of Blackgate.
-Oh...and the mayor sides with the nobles...
-There now you're following! 
-and...the warden dont like the mayor...
-Yea yea, well how did ya end up in this shit?
-I came here for a drink...
-I meant with the warden and so forth...
-Oh...I...
Nerin don't you bloody tell him you killed someone!
No but he know's I'm in trouble! I have to say something!
Just tell him that you're a migrant who escaped his wierd system.
-I kind of didn't join his group migrants when I came here...
-Ahh..so you're new around 'ere... Well, this place just gets wierder every year.
-Aren't you...gonna run?
-Nah got stuff to finish up around here, we're leaving in half a day. Wanna leave this place we got a spot to fill-
* He lifts up the decapiteted head of his dead comrade*
Someone in the back takes a moment to question Nerin's fighting abilities...or lack there of.
-Half a fighter is better than none!
-I...*gulp*...
This seems like the wrong crowd to get involved with Nerin.
No this is sure way out of here! You should take the chance!
I'm not sure I trust these guys...
What happned to the plan with the elves and the beards and that?
Yea and the artifacts. eh?
I don't know what to say to him!
Well...

-You don't know? Well we'll meet up at the gate before heading out, if you change your mind you have a chance to pick up your stuff.
*They exit through the backentrance leaving the floor littered with bodies*

Hmm. Let's check up with our friends and hear their side of the story. We should grab some stuff from the dead first, though. We should try to get a good helmet and weapon, and maybe something expensive.

If these guys are indeed merchants, and not up to something that conflicts with our intrests, we could get the elf out through their channels. On the other hand, we might want to get the sock so we can block out the gauntlet. If the timeframe allows it, we might be able to do both.

Edit:
We shouldn't get too much armor; we don't want to hamper our ability to run. If we're going to wear a non-helmet, we should probably take something lighter like leather.

Hmm. Nobody's written a response.

I think we should take the big guy's head as a snack for the elf. All for?

No.

What are our options, do what we were previously doing (which I managed to forget already), or follow the guy and his gang?

Now you mention it, we were exploring the caverns previously. With the (figurative) arms from these dead men, we could venture into the third cavern level and see what's there (I'd personally suggest making some odd gestures to a tree there, for future plans).

Edit:
Nerin was in the middle of getting a drink. We could search these people's bodies for beer flasks, so we won't steal from Brewster. We'd also get a handy beer flask.

I still believe we should find our friends, though. Hear their side of the story.

I can agree with both of those, except search the bodies for valuables and ask around here about those guys before actually going to them.

We should try to grab some armor from the bodies and fight more! Nerin can not be a weakling for the rest of his life.

It is okay for to participate?
Participate all you like! The more the merrier.

But like you say, Nerin hasn't used armor all his life. If we get a full suit of the stuff, Nerin will get trouble moving.

Well at least he could try to fetch some leather armour for minimum protection.

I agree, leather would be preferable for the most part.

And get a cloak and a hood to cover it! An armoured stranger is even more suspicious than a stranger.
